A novel, efficient, and mild protocol for rearrangement of oximes to amides or hydrolyzing to ketone/aldehyde using a simple BODIPY dye as a photocatalyst and air as an oxidant via propagation reaction under visible-light irradiation is reported. The triplet excited state of BODIPY played a significant role in the catalytic process. It was found that the various substituted ketoximes, both with electron-withdrawing and electron-donating substituents, afforded the corresponding products with moderate to excellent yields, and the catalytic efficiency was up to 0.01 mol %.

Owing to the wide and growing demand for primary alcohols, the development of efficient catalysts with high regioselectivity remains a worthwhile pursuit. However, according to Markovnikov's rule, it is a challenge to obtain primary alcohols with high yields and regioselectivity from terminal alkenes or alkynes. Herein, we report the synthesis of a photosensitizing two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic framework (MOF) from cyclic trinuclear copper(I) units (Cu-CTUs) and a boron dipyrro-methene (Bodipy) ligand.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) as metal-free photocatalysts have attracted extensive interest. However, the organic transformations photocatalyzed by COFs under mild conditions remain a challenge. Herein, a boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) based 1D COF, namely JNM-12, was facilely constructed by Schiff-base condensation reaction.

We used iodo-Bodipy derivatives that show strong absorption of visible light and long-lived triplet excited states as organic catalysts for photoredox catalytic organic reactions. Conventionally most of the photocatalysts are based on the off-the-shelf compounds, usually showing weak absorption in the visible region and short triplet excited state lifetimes. Herein, the organic catalysts are used for two photocatalyzed reactions mediated by singlet oxygen ((1)O2), that is, the aerobic oxidative coupling of amines and the photooxidation of dihydroxylnaphthalenes, which is coupled to the subsequent addition of amines to the naphthoquinones, via C-H functionalization of 1,4-naphthoquinone, to produce N-aryl-2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones (one-pot reaction), which are anticancer and antibiotic reagents.
