Dihydroaurones, which are derivatives of aurones, exhibit similar biological activity. Although there are many synthetic methods for dihydroaurones, ecofriendly methodologies that circumvent the use of precious metals still need to be explored. In this work, a catalyst-free, visible-light-driven synthesis of dihydroaurones has been developed through the cyclization of aromatic diazo compounds. The reaction proceeded smoothly under mild conditions, resulting in a series of dihydroaurones in moderate to high yields. Mechanistic investigation suggests that this process involves a radical-pair Stevens rearrangement.

Nitroaromatics, as an important member and source of nitrogen-containing aromatics, is bringing enormous economic benefits in fields of pharmaceuticals, dyes, pesticides, functional materials, fertilizers, and explosives. Nonetheless, the notoriously polluting nitration industry, which suffers from excessive discharge of fumes and waste acids, poor functional group tolerance, and tremendous purification difficulty, renders mild, efficient, and environmentally friendly nitration a formidable challenge. Herein, we develop a visible-light-driven biocompatible arene C-H nitration strategy with good efficiency and regioselectivity, marvelous substrate applicability and functional group tolerance, and wide application in scale-up synthesis, total synthesis, and late-stage functionalization.

The development of robust, efficient, and cost-effective heterogeneous photocatalysts for visible light-driven CO2 reduction continues to be a significant challenge in the quest for sustainable energy solutions. As a result, increasing attention is being directed towards the exploration of high-performance photocatalysts capable of converting CO2 into chemical feedstocks. Imidazolate Frameworks Potsdam (IFPs) can be a promising candidate for CO2 photoreduction due to their ease of synthesis, use of low-cost, earth-abundant metals, and high chemical and thermal stability.

Nickel MOF (Ni-MOF) nanoparticles were successfully anchored onto a polymeric graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) and Chitosan nanostructure (NS) using an eco-friendly and straightforward synthesis method. These newly fabricated photocatalysts were thoroughly characterized with standard techniques, revealing that the nanoscale Ni-MOF particles were uniformly deposited on the sheet-like g-CN matrix. This configuration demonstrated excellent antimicrobial properties and outstanding photodegradation of tetracycline hydrochloride under visible light exposure.

Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) processes provide an important strategy for selective C-H functionalization. Compared with the popularity of 1,5-HAT processes, however, net-1,2-HAT reactions have been reported less frequently. Herein, we report a unique visible-light-mediated net-1,2-HAT of amidyl radicals for the synthesis of β-amido ketone derivatives.
