Indolocarbazole alkaloids and their derivatives were discovered to have potent protein kinase and topoisomerase I inhibitory activities. Disclosed herein is the photochemical synthesis of the indolocarbazole ring system from -allenyl-2-iodoanilines. The tandem protocol included visible-light-mediated 5--trig radical cyclization and subsequent radical dimerization, followed by acid-promoted deprotection and intramolecular Mannich cyclization. This strategy showed exceptional functional group tolerance and was successfully applied in the concise synthesis of natural products tjipanazoles B and D.

Photocatalytic water splitting is a promising way to produce H, a green and clean energy source. However, efficient H production typically relies on the addition of electron donors, such as alcohols and acids, which are neither environmentally friendly nor cost-effective. Recently, we have witnessed a surge of studies in coupling photocatalytic H evolution with organic pollutant oxidation, which significantly promotes charge separation and improves the overall photocatalytic efficiency.

This chapter presents an overall account of cyclodextrins (CDs) with a brief description of the history, classification, and properties of these macromolecules. CDs act as complexing agents for drugs to form CD-drug inclusion complexes by various techniques. These complexes lead to the modification of the physicochemical properties of drugs to make them more soluble, chemically, and photochemically stable, and less toxic.

Print-Light-Synthesis (PLS) combines the inkjet printing of a ruthenium precursor ink with the simultaneous photo-induced generation of ruthenium oxide films. During PLS, inkjet-printing generates on conductive as well as insulating substrates micrometer-thin reaction volumes that contain with high precision defined precursor loadings. Upon direct UV light irradiation, the Ru precursor converts to RuO while all other ink components escape in the gas phase.

Amidines are a vital class of bioactive compounds and often necessitate multiple components for their synthesis. Therefore, exploring efficient and sustainable methodologies for their synthesis is indispensable. Herein, we disclose an alternative and greener method for synthesizing an unexplored new class of amidines through the photochemical synergistic effect of copper/nitroxyl radical catalysis.

The ultrafast excited-state dynamics of endohedral fullerenes are crucial in their photophysical and photochemical processes when they are employed as photovoltaic devices, photocatalytic devices, and single-molecule devices. In this study, by employing the non-adiabatic molecular dynamics simulations based on the time-dependent Kohn-Sham (TD-KS) method, we theoretically studied the size effect on ultrafast excited-state decay dynamics of the photoexcited Be electron in endohedral fullerenes Be@C (2 = 60, 70, and 80). These excited-state decay dynamics, which involve the charge-transfer process, occur in an ultrafast time scale of about 3 ps.
