The formation of ubiquitous occurring tetrahydrofuran patterns has been extensively investigated in the 1960s as it was one of the first examples of a non-directed remote C?H activation. These approaches suffer from the use of toxic transition metals in overstoichiometric amounts. An attractive metal-free solution for transforming carbon-hydrogen bonds into carbon-oxygen bonds lies in applying economically and ecologically favorable iodine reagents. The presented method involves an intertwined catalytic cycle of a radical chain reaction and an iodine(I/III) redox couple by selectively activating a remote C(sp3)?H bond under visible-light irradiation. The reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions, is operationally simple and tolerates many functional groups giving fast and easy access to different substituted tetrahydrofurans.

Catalytic carbon-carbon bond formation building on reductive coupling is a powerful method for the preparation of organic compounds. The identification of environmentally benign reductants is key for establishing an efficient reductive coupling reaction. Herein an efficient strategy enabling H2 as the sole reductant for the palladium-catalyzed allyl-allyl reductive coupling reaction is described. A wide range of allylamines and allylic alcohols as well as allylic ethers proceed smoothly to deliver the C-C coupling products under 1 atm of H2. Kinetic studies suggested that the dinuclear palladium species was involved in the catalytic cycle.
Heteroleptic Copper-Based Complexes for Energy-Transfer Processes: E → Z Isomerization and Tandem Photocatalytic Sequences
Cruché, Corentin,Neiderer, William,Collins, Shawn K.

Energy-transfer processes involving copper complexes are rare. Using an optimized heteroleptic copper complex, Cu(bphen)(XantPhos)BF4, photosensitized E → Z isomerization of olefins is demonstrated. The XantPhos ligand afforded sensitizers with improved catalyst stability, while the bphen ligand lengthened the excited-state lifetime. A series of 25 di- and trisubstituted alkenes underwent photoisomerization, including macrocycles and 1,3-enynes. Cu(bphen)(XantPhos)BF4 could also be employed in a tandem ATRA/photoisomerization process employing arylsulfonyl chlorides, an example of photoisomerization with halide-substituted olefins.
