A simple and practical method for the synthesis of substituted oxazoles has been developed using readily available α-bromoketones and benzylamines by visible-light photocatalysis at room temperature. The process, which requires 1 mol % of [Ru(bpy)3]Cl2 photocatalyst with K3PO4 and CCl3Br

We report the development of a method for room-temperature C-H hydroxymethylation of heteroarenes. A key enabling advance in this work was achieved by implementing visible light photoredox catalysis that proved to be applicable to many classes of heteroarenes and tolerant

The synthesis of alkyl boronic esters by direct decarboxylative radical addition of carboxylic acids to vinyl boronic esters is described. The reaction proceeds under mild photoredox catalysis and involves an unprecedented single-electron reduction of an α-boryl radical intermediate to the

A visible light-driven photocatalytic generation of sulfonamidyl radicals, and application to intramolecular alkene hydroamination, has been accomplished, providing a mild and efficient approach to various functionalized isoxazolidines. The success of this protocol is based on the strategy of oxidative deprotonation
