In this study, we carried out preparative and mechanistic studies on the photochemical reaction of a series of p-substituted phenyl benzoates in confined and sustainable micellar environment. The aim of this work is mainly focused to show whether the nature of the surfactant (ionic or nonionic) leads to noticeable selectivity in the photoproduct formation and whether the electronic effects of the substituents affect the chemical yields and the rate of formation of the 5-substituted-2-hydroxybenzophenone derivatives. Application of the Hammett linear free energy relationship (LFER) on the rate of formation of benzophenone derivatives, on the lower energy band of the UV-visible absorption spectra of the aryl benzoates and 5-substituted-2-hydroxybenzophenone derivatives allows a satisfactory quantification of the substituent effects. Furthermore, UV-visible and 2D-NMR (NOESY) spectroscopies have been employed to measure the binding constant Kb and the location of the aryl benzoates within the hydrophobic core of the micelle. Finally, TD-DFT calculations have been carried out to estimate the energies of the absorption bands of p-substituted phenyl benzoates and 5-substituted-2-hydroxybenzophenone derivatives providing good linear correlation with those values measured experimentally.
Hydrogen-bond-assisted transition-metal-free catalytic transformation of amides to esters

The amide C-N cleavage has drawn a broad interest in synthetic chemistry, biological process and pharmaceutical industry. Transition-metal, luxury ligand or excess base were always vital to the transformation. Here, we developed a transition-metal-free hydrogen-bond-assisted esterification of amides with only catalytic amount of base. The proposed crucial role of hydrogen bonding for assisting esterification was supported by control experiments, density functional theory (DFT) calculations and kinetic studies. Besides broad substrate scopes and excellent functional groups tolerance, this base-catalyzed protocol complements the conventional transition-metal-catalyzed esterification of amides and provides a new pathway to catalytic cleavage of amide C-N bonds for organic synthesis and pharmaceutical industry.

Herein, aminoquinolate diarylboron complexes are utilized as photocatalysts in dual Ni/photoredox catalyzed carbon-oxygen construction reactions. Via this unified metallaphotoredox platform, diverse (hetero)aryl halides can be conveniently coupled with acids, alcohols and water. This method features operational simplicity, broad substrate scope and good compatibility with functional groups. This journal is
