An efficient visible-light-promoted organic-dye-catalyzed radical cascade cyclization was developed for the rapid synthesis of sulfonyl-substituted indolo[2,1-]isoquinolines and benzimidazo[2,1-]isoquinolin-6(5)-ones. Using the economical and environmentally benign Eosin B as the photocatalyst, a wide range of indolo[2,1-]isoquinoline derivatives were obtained in moderate to good yields. Mechanistic studies indicate that a sulfonyl radical pathway is involved in this reaction.

Metal-catalyst-free, organic dye-catalyzed C3-H arylation of pyrido[1,2-]pyrimidin-4-ones using visible light irradiation was developed under mild reaction conditions. This operationally simple and direct C-H functionalization approach effectively produced biologically significant C3 arylated pyrido[1,2-]pyrimidin-4-one and thiazolo[3,2-]pyrimidin-5-one derivatives, including medicinally important endothelial cell dysfunction inhibitor and anti-inflammatory agents in good to excellent yields with good functional group tolerance. The present photoinduced direct C3-H arylation approach was suitable for scale-up synthesis.

A mild and eco-friendly visible-light-mediated regioselective C-H alkoxycarbonylation of imidazo[1,2-]pyridine heterocycles using rose bengal as a photoredox catalyst at room temperature has been developed. Biologically important alkoxycarboxylated imidazo[1,2-]pyridines at the C-3 position as well as coumarins and quinoxalin-2(1)-ones have been prepared. The present approach has the advantage of having a user- and eco-friendly catalyst, a carbonyl source, as well as extremely mild conditions for direct and regioselective C-H alkoxycarbonylation mediated by visible light as a green energy source.

Visible-Light-Catalyzed Radical-Radical Cross-Coupling Reaction of Benzyl Trifluoroborates and Carbonyl Compounds to Sterically Hindered Alcohols.

We report here an organic dye catalyzed direct radical-radical cross-coupling reaction based on the persistent free-radical effect (PRE), which is powered by visible light and does not require any external oxidants or reductants. In this reaction, benzyl trifluoroborates are oxidized by excited-state 4Cz-IPN to generate benzyl radicals, and the resulting boron trifluoride acts as a Lewis acid to reduce the reduction potential of carbonyl compounds. The dual roles of benzyl trifluoroborates enable aldehydes, ketones, diketones, and ketone esters to react with benzyl trifluoroborates to generate various sterically hindered alcohols.

Here we have demonstrated a visible-light-mediated metal-free organic-dye-catalyzed dehydrogenative N-insertion leading to highly substituted imidazoles and privileged dihydroisoquinoline-based imidazole derivatives via C(sp)-H and C(sp)-H bond functionalization. A sustainable, convenient, metal-free azidation/C-H aminative cyclization approach in the absence of stoichiometric oxidants is presented. This protocol involves a rare photoinduced iminyl radical as a key intermediate for the "N" insertion.
