Abstract
In recent years, redox reactions have harnessed light or mechanical energy to enable the formation of chemical bonds. We postulated a complementary approach that electromagnetic induction could promote the redox reaction of organic molecules using a rotating magnetic field and metal rods. Here, we report that electromotive force activates the redox-active trifluoromethylating reagents. This magnetoredox system can be applied to the trifluoromethylation of heteroarenes with high regioselectivity and hydrotrifluoromethylation of alkenes without the need for catalysts and organic additives.

Abstract
It has recently been discovered that, like other members of the Cas family (12a and 13a), the clustered regularly interspaced short palindrome repeat CRISPR-Cas14a system not only mediates high-sensitivity detection with exceptionally strong gene editing ability but is also generally useful for DNA detection via fluorescence. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensors have been widely applied as efficient analytical tools. Measuring electrical signals is more cost-effective and the necessary equipment is more easily portable than fluorescence signal detectors, but their stability still needs to be improved. The high base resolution of CRISPR-Cas14a can compensate for such shortcomings. Therefore, electrical signals and fluorescence signals were combined, and the development of a universal CRISPR-Cas14a-responsive ultrasensitive upconversion PEC sensor is described in this paper. Moreover, strand displacement amplification (SDA) and a near-infrared (NIR) light source were utilized to further improve the stability and sensitivity of the photoelectric signals. At the same time, the modified working electrode (UCNPs-ssDNA-CdS@Au/ITO) on the three-electrode disposable sensor was used as the reporter probe, which cooperates with the trans-cleavage activity of Cas14a endonuclease. To verify the universality of this sensor, the UCNPs-Cas14a-based PEC sensor was applied for the detection of the small-molecule toxin T2 and protein kinase PTK7. Here, we report that the limit of detection of this reagent was within the fg range, successfully applied to the detection of T2 in oats and PTK7 in human serum. We propose that by combining PEC and CRISPR-14a, UCNPs-Cas14a-based PEC sensors could become powerful drivers for the extensive development of ultrasensitive, accurate and cost-effective universal sensors for detection and diagnosis.

Abstract
In order to use holes as catalysts, the oxidized product should be able to transfer the hole to a fresh reactant. For that, the hole-catalyzed reaction must increase the oxidation potential along the reaction path, i.e., lead to "hole upconversion." If this thermodynamic requirement is satisfied, a hole injected via one-electron oxidation can persist through multiple propagation cycles and serve as a true catalyst. This work provides guidelines for the rational design of hole-catalyzed Diels-Alder (DA) reactions, the prototypical cycloaddition. After revealing the crucial role of hyperconjugation in the absence of hole upconversion in the parent DA reaction, we show how upconversion can be reactivated by proper substitution. For this purpose, we computationally evaluate the contrasting effects of substituents at the three possible positions in the two reactants. The occurrence and magnitude of hole upconversion depend strongly on the placement and nature of substituents. For example, donors at C1 in 1,3-butadiene shift the reaction to the hole-upconverted regime with an increased oxidation potential of up to 1.0 V. In contrast, hole upconversion in C2-substituted 1,3-butadienes is activated by acceptors with the oxidation potential increase up to 0.54 V. Dienophile substitution results in complex trends because the radical cation can be formed at either the dienophile or the diene. Hole upconversion is always present in the former scenario (up to 0.65 V). Finally, we report interesting stereoelectronic effects that can activate or deactivate upconversion via a conformational change.

Abstract
A one-step method for the conversion of nitroarenes into phenols under operationally simple, transition-metal-free conditions is described. This denitrative functionalization protocol provides a concise and economical alternative to conventional three-step synthetic sequences. Experimental and computational studies suggest that nitroarenes may be substituted by an electron-catalysed radical-nucleophilic substitution (SRN 1) chain mechanism.

Abstract
C(sp3)-rich bicyclic hydrocarbon scaffolds, as exemplified by bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes, play an increasingly high-profile role as saturated bioisosteres of benzenoids in medicinal chemistry and crop science. Substituted bicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes (BCHs) are emerging bicyclic hydrocarbon bioisosteres for ortho- and meta-substituted benzenes, but are difficult to access. Therefore, a general synthetic route to BCHs is needed if their potential as bioisosteres is to be realized. Here we describe a broadly applicable catalytic approach that delivers substituted BCHs by intermolecular coupling between olefins and bicyclo[1.1.0]butyl (BCB) ketones. The SmI2-catalysed process works for a wide range of electron-deficient alkenes and substituted BCB ketones, operates with SmI2 loadings as low as 5 mol% and is underpinned by a radical relay mechanism that is supported by density functional theory calculations. The product BCH ketones have been shown to be versatile synthetic intermediates through selective downstream manipulation and the expedient synthesis of a saturated hydrocarbon analogue of the broad-spectrum antimicrobial, phthalylsulfathiazole.

Abstract
Traditionally, cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) leads to C-N bond formation under basic and oxidative conditions and is proposed to proceed via a two-electron bond formation mediated by carbenium ions. However, the formation of such high-energy intermediates is only possible in the presence of strong oxidants, which may lead to undesired side reactions and poor functional group tolerance. In this work we explore if oxidation under basic conditions allows the formation of three-electron bonds (resulting in "upconverted" highly-reducing radical-anions). The benefit of this "upconversion" process is in the ability to use milder oxidants (e. g., O2 ) and to avoid high-energy intermediates. Comparison of the two- and three-electron pathways using quantum mechanical calculations reveals that not only does the absence of a strong oxidant shut down two-electron pathways in favor of a three-electron path but, paradoxically, weaker oxidants react faster with the upconverted reductants by avoiding the inverted Marcus region for electron transfer.

Abstract
The first example of an intermolecular thiol–yne–ene coupling reaction is reported for the one‐pot construction of C−S and C−C bonds. Thiol–yne–ene coupling opens a new dimension in building molecular complexity to access densely functionalized products. The employment of Eosin Y/DBU/MeOH photocatalytic system suppresses hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and associative reductant upconversion (via C−S three‐electron σ‐bond formation). Investigation of the reaction mechanism by combining online ESI‐UHRMS, EPR spectroscopy, isotope labeling, determination of quantum yield, cyclic voltammetry, Stern–Volmer measurements and computational modeling revealed a unique photoredox cycle with four radical‐involving stages. As a result, previously unavailable products of the thiol–yne–ene reaction were obtained in good yields with high selectivity. They can serve as stable precursors for synthesizing synthetically demanding activated 1,3‐dienes.

Abstract
Difluoroboryl complexes obtained from N-acyl hydrazones upon brief treatment with boron trifluoride and allylic silane serve as efficient acceptors of alkyl radicals. The reaction of the boryl chelates with carboxylic acids in the presence of an acridine-type photocatalyst leading to N-acyl hydrazides is described. The efficiency of addition at the C═N bond of the chelates is determined by the formation of a nitrogen-centered radical stabilized by the boron-containing heterocyclic ring.

Abstract
A nitrogen-centered radical-mediated carbon-carbon bond cleavage strategy is described to synthesize functionalized 3-acylcoumarins. The strategy is enabled by the visible-light-induced acylation/cyclization of alkynoates with various acyl oxime compounds in acetonitrile. The difunctionalization of carbon-carbon triple bonds precedes the generation of iminyl radicals, which is followed by the formation of acyl radicals. The acyl radicals then attack the carbon-carbon triple bonds, followed by 5-exo-trig cyclization and 1,2-ester migration. This strategy has wide substrate adaptability and good substituent tolerance.

Abstract
The conversion of ribonucleosides to 2'-deoxyribonucleosides is catalyzed by ribonucleoside reductase enzymes in nature. One of the key steps in this complex radical mechanism is the reduction of the 3'-ketodeoxynucleotide by a pair of cysteine residues, providing the electrons via a disulfide radical anion (RSSR•-) in the active site of the enzyme. In the present study, the bioinspired conversion of ketones to corresponding alcohols was achieved by the intermediacy of disulfide radical anion of cysteine (CysSSCys)•- in water. High concentration of cysteine and pH 10.6 are necessary for high-yielding reactions. The photoinitiated radical chain reaction includes the one-electron reduction of carbonyl moiety by disulfide radical anion, protonation of the resulting ketyl radical anion by water, and H-atom abstraction from CysSH. The (CysSSCys)•- transient species generated by ionizing radiation in aqueous solutions allowed the measurement of kinetic data with ketones by pulse radiolysis. By measuring the rate of the decay of (CysSSCys)•- at λmax = 420 nm at various concentrations of ketones, we found the rate constants of three cyclic ketones to be in the range of 104-105 M-1s-1 at ~22 °C.

Abstract
The use of sodium dithionite with perfluoroalkyl iodides under basic conditions facilitates the direct perfluoroalkylation of arenes with pendant benzylic electron-withdrawing groups. This occurs via attack of the arene on the electrophilic perfluoroalkyl radical, through the donation of electron density from a benzylic anion. The substrate scope was expanded beyond benzylic nitriles with cyclic substrates bearing electron-withdrawing groups at the benzylic position-enforcing donation of electron density to the aromatic ring and enabling attack on the perfluoroalkyl radical.

Abstract
The concept of using redox-active ligands, which has become extremely widespread in organometallic chemistry, is often considered from ‘their effect on the metal center properties’ point of view and ‘how to modify the ligands’. In this paper, we present the reverse side of this effective approach – a dramatic change of redox properties of ligands under the influence of a redox-inert metal. Germanium derivatives based on 2,3-dihydroxynaphthalene (1) and N,N′-bidentate ligands, namely 2,2′-bipyridine (2) and 1,10-phenanthroline (3), were obtained and characterized by CV, UV-vis spectroscopy, DFT calculations and in the case of 3 X-ray diffraction. It was shown that the HOMO of the complexes is almost completely located on the naphthalene fragment while the LUMO is on the N,N-ligands. At the same time, there are no boundary molecular orbitals on the germanium atom, but it forms the axial part of the molecule holding two opposite motifs together. Moreover, it sharply affects the level of HOMO and LUMO. Derivatives 2 and 3 are more easily oxidized compared to 2,3-dihydroxynaphthalene by 0.31–0.34 V (7–8 kcal mol−1) and are more easily reduced compared to N,N-donors by 1.08–1.15 V (25–26.5 kcal mol−1). All this together makes it possible to form a system with a narrow HOMO/LUMO gap (∼2 eV). The crystal structure of 3 consists of alternating monomolecular easily oxidizing and easily reducing layers formed due to intermolecular interactions, in particular π-stacking. In addition, in contrast to 1 that starts to decompose noticeably at the temperatures from 200 °C, 2 and 3 have an extremely high thermal stability. They remain stable with no signs of decomposition and melting up to 400 °С. We believe that this approach to the formation of the supramolecular structure may present prospects for obtaining new functional materials. The concept of using redox-active ligands is often considered from ‘their effect on the metal center properties’ point of view. We present the reverse side of this approach – change of redox properties of ligands under the influence of metal.![]()

Abstract
We report a late‐stage heteroarylation of aryl sulfonium salts through activation with α‐amino alkyl radicals in a mechanistically distinct approach from previously reported halogen‐atom transfer (XAT). The new mode of activation of aryl sulfonium salts proceeds in the absence of light and photoredox catalysts, engaging a wide range of hetarenes. Furthermore, we demonstrate the applicability of this methodology in synthetically useful cross‐coupling transformations.

Abstract
The archetypal single electron transfer reductant, samarium(II) diiodide (SmI2, Kagan's reagent), remains one of the most important reducing agents and mediators of radical chemistry after four decades of widespread use in synthesis. While the chemistry of SmI2 is very often unique, and thus the reagent is indispensable, it is almost invariably used in superstoichiometric amounts, thus raising issues of cost and waste. Of the few reports of the use of catalytic SmI2, all require the use of superstoichiometric amounts of a metal coreductant to regenerate Sm(II). Here, we describe a SmI2-catalyzed intermolecular radical coupling of aryl cyclopropyl ketones and alkynes. The process shows broad substrate scope and delivers a library of decorated cyclopentenes with loadings of SmI2 as low as 15 mol %. The radical relay strategy negates the need for a superstoichiometric coreductant and additives to regenerate SmI2. Crucially, our study uncovers an intriguing link between ketone conformation and efficient cross-coupling and thus provides an insight into the mechanism of radical relays involving SmI2. The study lays further groundwork for the future use of the classical reagent SmI2 in contemporary radical catalysis.

Abstract
The concept behind the research described in this article was that of marrying the 'soft' methods of radical generation with the effectiveness and flexibility of nucleophile/electrophile synthetic procedures. Classic studies with pulse radiolysis and laser flash photolysis had shown that free radicals could be more acidic than their closed shell counterparts. QM computations harmonised with this and helped to define which radical centres and which structural types were most effective. Radicals based on the sulfonic acid moiety and on the Meldrum's acid moiety (2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione) were found to be extreme examples in the superacid class. The ethyne unit could be used as a very effective spacer between the radical centre and the site of proton donation. The key factor in promoting acidity was understood to be the thermodynamic stabilisation of the conjugate anion-radicals released on deprotonation. Solvation played a key part in promoting this and theoretical microhydration studies provided notable support. A corollary was that heterolytic dissociations of free radicals to yield either electrophiles or nucleophiles were also enhanced relative to non-radical models. The most effective radical types for spontaneous releases of both these types of reagents were identified. Ethyne units were again effective as spacers. The enhancement of release of phosphate anions by adjacent radical centres was an important special case. Reactive oxygen species and also diradicals from endiyne antibiotics generate C4'-deoxyribose radicals from nucleotides. Radicals of these types spontaneously release phosphate and triphosphate and this is a contributor to DNA and RNA strand breaks.

Abstract
Alkyl radicals are key intermediates in organic synthesis. Their classic generation from alkyl halides has a severe drawback due to the employment of toxic tin hydrides to the point that "flight from the tyranny of tin" in radical processes was considered for a long time an unavoidable issue. This review summarizes the main alternative approaches for the generation of unstabilized alkyl radicals, using photons as traceless promoters. The recent development in photochemical and photocatalyzed processes enabled the discovery of a plethora of new alkyl radical precursors, opening the world of radical chemistry to a broader community, thus allowing a new era of photon democracy.

Abstract
Several independent determinations of the pKa values of trans-resveratrol in water have led to conflicting results. Singular value decomposition analysis of UV absorption spectra of trans-resveratrol (t-Resv) in N2-outgased aqueous solutions buffered to pH values in the 7.0-13.6 range yielded the UV spectra of the three anionic forms and the corresponding pKa values: pKa1 = 9.16, pKa2 = 9.77, and pKa3 = 10.55 in very good agreement with calculated theoretical values. The analysis of the absorption spectra guided the assignment of the fluorescence spectrum of each anionic form. With the resolved spectra on hand, we applied the Förster equation to estimate pKa* values of 2.5 and 0, respectively, for the p- and m-OH substituents of t-Resv in S1. Theory supports a proposed mechanism for the reaction of t-Resv anions with O2.

Abstract
C-O bond cleavage is often a key process in defunctionalization of organic compounds as well as in degradation of natural polymers. However, it seldom occurs regioselectively for different types of C-O bonds under metal-free mild conditions. Here we report a facile chemo-selective cleavage of the α-C-O bonds in α-carboxy ketones by commercially available pinacolborane under the catalysis of diazaphosphinane based on a mechanism switch strategy. This new reaction features high efficiency, low cost and good group-tolerance, and is also amenable to catalytic deprotection of desyl-protected carboxylic acids and amino acids. Mechanistic studies indicated an electron-transfer-initiated radical process, underlining two crucial steps: (1) the initiator azodiisobutyronitrile switches originally hydridic reduction to kinetically more accessible electron reduction; and (2) the catalytic phosphorus species upconverts weakly reducing pinacolborane into strongly reducing diazaphosphinane.

Abstract
An associative electron upconversion is proposed as a key step determining the selectivity of thiol-yne coupling. The developed synthetic approach provided an efficient tool to access a comprehensive range of products - four types of vinyl sulfides were prepared in high yields and selectivity. We report practically important transition-metal-free regioselective thiol-yne addition and formation of the demanding Markovnikov-type product by a radical photoredox process. The photochemical process was directly monitored by mass-spectrometry in a specially designed ESI-MS device with green laser excitation in the spray chamber. The proposed reaction mechanism is supported by experiments and DFT calculations.

Abstract
Tetrahydrocarbazoles and perhydrocyclohepta[b]indoles undergo a catalytic cascade singlet oxygenation in alkaline medium, which leads to chiral tricyclic perhydropyrido- and perhydroazepino[1,2-a]indoles in a single operation. These photooxygenation products are new synthetic equivalents of uncommon C,N-diacyliminium ions and can be functionalized with the aid of phosphoric acid organocatalysis.

Abstract
1,2-Boron ate rearrangements represent a fundamental class of transformations to establish new C-C bonds while retaining the valuable boron moiety in the product. In established ionic processes, the boron ate complex is activated by an external electrophile to induce a 1,2-migration from boron to an adjacent sp 3 or sp 2 carbon atom. Recently, two complementary radical polar crossover approaches have been explored for both classes, 1,2-migrations to sp 2 and sp 3 carbon centers. This review describes the general concepts in this emerging research field and summarizes recent developments of radical-induced 1,2-migrations from boron to carbon.

Abstract
A debrominative oxygenation protocol has been developed for the conversion of α-bromo-α,α-dialkyl-substituted carbonyl compounds to their corresponding α-hydroxy analogues. For example, stirring a solution of α-bromoisobutyrophenone and 2-aryl-1,3-dimethylbenzimidazoline (BIH-Ar) at room temperature under an air atmosphere leads to the efficient formation of α-hydroperoxyisobutyrophenone, which can be converted to α-hydroxyisobutyrophenone using Me2S reduction. In contrast, reaction of α-bromoacetophenone under the same conditions produces the α-hydrogenated product acetophenone. α-Keto-alkyl and benzimidazolyl radicals (BI•-Ar), generated via dissociative electron transfer from BIH-Ar to α-bromoketone substrates, serve as key intermediates in the oxidation and reduction processes. The dramatic switch from hydrogenation to oxygenation is attributed to a steric effect of α-alkyl substituents, which causes hydrogen atom abstraction from sterically crowded BIH-Ar to α-keto-alkyl radicals to be slow and enable preferential reaction with molecular oxygen. Generation of the α-keto-alkyl radical and BI•-Ar intermediates in these process and their sterically governed hydrogen atom transfer reactions are supported by results arising from DFT calculations. Moreover, an electron spin resonance study showed that visible light irradiation of phenyl benzimidazoline (BIH-Ph) in the presence of molecular oxygen produces the benzimidazolyl radical (BI•-Ph). The addition of thiophenol into the reaction of α-bromoisobutyrophenone and BIH-Ph predominantly produced α-phenylthiolated isobutyrophenone even if a high concentration of molecular oxygen exists. Furthermore, the developed protocol was applied to other α-bromo-α,α-dialkylated carbonyl compounds.

Abstract
An efficient approach to invent diversely substituted indole-fused phthalazines from in situ formed (2-alkynylbenzylidene)hydrazines under metal-free conditions via selective radical cyclization has been developed. Notably, this 6-exo-dig addition-cyclization tandem procedure proceeds under air atmosphere and shows a broad substrate suitability, as well as avoids harmful byproducts, which complies with the concept of green synthesis.

Abstract
An intramolecular C(sp3)-H amidation proceeds in the presence of t-BuOK, molecular oxygen, and DMF. This transformation is initiated by the deprotonation of an acidic N-H bond and selective radical activation of a benzylic C-H bond towards hydrogen atom transfer (HAT). Cyclization of this radical-anion intermediate en route to a two-centered/three-electron (2c,3e) C-N bond removes electron density from nitrogen. As this electronegative element resists such an "oxidation", making nitrogen more electron rich is key to overcoming this problem. This work dramatically expands the range of N-anions that can participate in this process by using amides instead of anilines. The resulting 107-fold decrease in the N-component basicity (and nucleophilicity) doubles the activation barrier for C-N bond formation and makes this process nearly thermoneutral. Remarkably, this reaction also converts a weak reductant into a much stronger reductant. Such "reductant upconversion" allows mild oxidants like molecular oxygen to complete the first part of the cascade. In contrast, the second stage of NH/CH activation forms a highly stabilized radical-anion intermediate incapable of undergoing electron transfer to oxygen. Because the oxidation is unfavored, an alternative reaction path opens via coupling between the radical anion intermediate and either superoxide or hydroperoxide radical. The hydroperoxide intermediate transforms into the final hydroxyisoindoline products under basic conditions. The use of TEMPO as an additive was found to activate less reactive amides. The combination of experimental and computational data outlines a conceptually new mechanism for conversion of unprotected amides into hydroxyisoindolines proceeding as a sequence of C-H amidation and C-H oxidation.

Abstract
![]()
The
Cα–Cβ bond in homoallylic
alcohols can be activated under basic conditions, qualifying these
nonstrained acyclic systems as radical allylation reagents. This reactivity
is exemplified by photoinitiated (with visible light and/or blue LEDs)
allylation of perfluoroalkyl and alkyl radicals generated from perfluoroalkyl
iodides and alkylpyridinium salts, respectively, with homoallylic
alcohols. C-radical addition to the double bond of the title reagents
and subsequent base-promoted homolytic Cα–Cβ cleavage leads to the formation of the corresponding
allylated products along with ketyl radicals that act as single electron
reductants to sustain the chain reactions. Substrate scope is documented
and the role of base in the C–C bond activation is studied
by computation.

Abstract
Investigations into the selectivity of intermolecular alkyl radical additions to C-O- vs. C-C-double bonds in α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds are described. Therefore, a photoredox-initiated radical chain reaction is explored, where the activation of the carbonyl-group through an in situ generated Lewis acid - originating from the substrate - enables the formation of either C-O or the C-C-addition products. α,β-Unsaturated aldehydes form selectively 1,2-, while esters and ketones form the corresponding 1,4-addition products exclusively. Computational studies lead to reason that this chemo- and regioselectivity is determined by the consecutive step, i.e. an electron transfer, after reversible radical addition, which eventually propagates the radical chain.

Abstract
Neutral organic super electron donors (SEDs) display impressive reducing power but, until now, it has not been possible to use them catalytically in radical chain reactions. This is because, following electron transfer, these donors form persistent radical cations that trap substrate-derived radicals. This paper unlocks a conceptually new approach to super electron donors that overcomes this issue, leading to the first catalytic neutral organic super electron donor.
