An organocatalytic photoinduced 1,2-carbofunctionalization strategy for conjugated dienes has been developed. No exogenous photocatalyst or additives are required in this mild protocol and it allows for highly regioselective and efficient 1,2-carboisothiocyanation through the coupling of a diene, an alkyl radical and TMSNCS. The reaction is proposed to proceed through EDA complexation between the diene and TMSNCS.

Plastic pollution constitutes an evergrowing urgent environmental problem, since overaccumulation of plastic waste, arising from the immense increase of the production of disposable plastic products, overcame planet's capacity to properly handle them. Chemical upcycling of polystyrene constitutes a convenient method for the conversion of plastic waste into high-added value chemicals, suggesting an attractive perspective in dealing with the environmental crisis. We demonstrate herein a novel, easy-to-perform organocatalytic photoinduced aerobic protocol, which proceeds via synergistic indirect hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) catalysis under LED 390 nm Kessil lamps as the irradiation source.

A general catalytic donor for the combination of a photoinduced electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex and energy transfer was developed. This mild and metal-free protocol allows facile access to various -alkenes. Mechanism studies revealed that the organophotocatalyst, 4-CzIPN, formed a distinct three-component EDA complex with redox-active esters and (CHO)P(O)OH to trigger the photoredox catalysis.

While asymmetric insertion of metal carbenes into H-X (X = C, N, O, ) bonds has been well-established, asymmetric control over free carbenes is challenging due to the presence of strong background reactions and lack of any anchor for a catalyst interaction. Here we have achieved the first photo-induced metal-free asymmetric H-X bond insertion of this type. With visible light used as a promoter and a chiral phosphoric acid used as a catalyst, α-diazoesters and aryl amines underwent smooth N-H bond insertion to form enantioenriched α-aminoesters with high efficiency and good enantioselectivity under mild conditions.

An organocatalytic enantioselective radical reaction of potassium alkyltrifluoroborates, DABCO·(SO) and α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds under photoinduced conditions is developed, which provides an efficient pathway for the synthesis of chiral β-sulfonyl carbonyl compounds in good yields with excellent enantioselectivity (up to 96% ee). Aside from α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds with auxiliary groups, common chalcone substrates are also well compatible with this organocatalytic system. This method proceeds through an organocatalytic enantioselective radical sulfonylation under photoinduced conditions, and represents a rare example of asymmetric transformation involving sulfur dioxide insertion.
