Abstract
Ketenimines are highly electrophilic species with multiple applications as building blocks in organic synthesis; however, the effective preparation of these versatile entities remains a synthetic challenge. Here we report a continuous photochemical process that generates ketenimines via skeletal rearrangement of trisubstituted isoxazoles. The resulting flow process is noteworthy, as it provides for the first time a straightforward entry into these ketenimines that were previously only observed spectroscopically. The value of this methodology toward heterocyclic transposition reactions is demonstrated by converting isoxazoles via isolable ketenimines into pharmaceutically relevant pyrazoles.

Abstract
Aryl transfer between heteroatoms was photochemically available through radical initiation followed by a bimolecular reaction. However, such an excited-state reaction has rarely been reported through a photoinduced intramolecular pathway in the π-conjugated systems. Herein, we found, for the first time, a clean photoinduced intramolecular aryl shift for imidazolyl-quinoline derivatives 2NQ (imidazophenanthrene) and 4NQX (imidazophenanthroline), of which the photoproducts are thermally reversible. Upon light irradiation of the studied compounds in solution, an appreciable blue fluorescence along with a gradual change in color appearance was observed, the photoluminescence and photoconversion quantum yields of which were shown to be competitive in the same excited state. We were able to harness the photoconversion quantum yields of the NQ compounds with facile electronic modifications. These, in combination with time-resolved studies on the NQ compounds, gave an oxygen-insensitive aryl transfer rate within 1-100 ns. The anomalously slow intramolecular reaction rates were further proven to be associated with the ∼5.0 kcal/mol transition free energy. The photoproducts NQ_rs were isolated, identified by X-ray analyses, and also shown to demonstrate anti-Vavilov reverse reactions back to the NQ compounds in the higher-lying excited state. The discovery of photoinduced intramolecular aryl transfer paves a new pathway in the synthetic field, which may also be extended and far-reaching to solar-chemical storage under an appropriate design strategy.

Abstract
Biomass and biomass-derived compounds have become an important alternative feedstock for chemical industry. They may replace fossil feedstocks such as mineral oil and related platform chemicals. These compounds may also be transformed conveniently into new innovative products for the medicinal or the agrochemical domain. The production of cosmetics or surfactants as well as materials for different applications are examples for other domains where new platform chemicals obtained from biomass can be used. Photochemical and especially photocatalytic reactions have recently been recognized as being important tools of organic chemistry as they make compounds or compound families available that cannot be or are difficultly synthesized with conventional methods of organic synthesis. The present review gives a short overview with selected examples on photocatalytic reactions of biopolymers, carbohydrates, fatty acids and some biomass-derived platform chemicals such as furans or levoglucosenone. In this article, the focus is on application to organic synthesis.

Abstract
For the first time, we elaborated a method for the synthesis of pyrimidines containing an allomaltol unit. The suggested approach is based on the reaction of 2-(1-(dimethylamino)-3-oxo-3-arylprop-1-en-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-ones with cyanamide. The photochemical behavior of the obtained pyrimidines was investigated. It was shown that for the hydroxy derivatives the main pathway of phototransformation is a 6π-electrocyclization of the 1,3,5-hexatriene system and subsequent [1,9]-H sigmatropic shift leading to dihydrobenzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines. At the same time, for methylated analogues the photoreaction proceeds in two directions resulting in the formation of a mixture of the corresponding dihydrobenzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines and polyaromatic products. The obtained dihydro derivatives are stable compounds and do not undergo aromatization upon further UV irradiation. The structures of two of the dihydrobenzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Based on the performed studies, a two-stage telescopic method for the synthesis of polyaromatic benzo[h]pyrano[2,3-f]quinazolines including the initial photocyclization of the starting pyrimidines and the final dehydration was proposed.

Abstract
Monomers of benzimidazole trapped in an argon matrix at 15 K were characterized by vibrational spectroscopy and identified as 1H-tautomers exclusively. The photochemistry of matrix-isolated 1H-benzimidazole was induced by excitations with a frequency-tunable narrowband UV light and followed spectroscopically. Hitherto unobserved photoproducts were identified as 4H- and 6H-tautomers. Simultaneously, a family of photoproducts bearing the isocyano moiety was identified. Thereby, the photochemistry of benzimidazole was hypothesized to follow two reaction pathways: the fixed-ring and the ring-opening isomerizations. The former reaction channel results in the cleavage of the NH bond and formation of a benzimidazolyl radical and an H-atom. The latter reaction channel involves the cleavage of the five-membered ring and concomitant shift of the H-atom from the CH bond of the imidazole moiety to the neighboring NH group, leading to 2-isocyanoaniline and subsequently to the isocyanoanilinyl radical. The mechanistic analysis of the observed photochemistry suggests that detached H-atoms, in both cases, recombine with the benzimidazolyl or isocyanoanilinyl radicals, predominantly at the positions with the largest spin density (revealed using the natural bond analysis computations). The photochemistry of benzimidazole therefore occupies an intermediate position between the earlier studied prototype cases of indole and benzoxazole, which exhibit exclusively the fixed-ring and the ring-opening photochemistries, respectively.

Abstract
A convenient, efficient, and inexpensive method has been developed for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazine derivatives via deoxygenation of 1,2,3-triazine 1-oxide using trialkyl phosphites. Triethyl phosphite is more reactive than trimethyl phosphite, and both phosphites form their corresponding phosphates in these reactions. This procedure provides a range of aromatic and aliphatic substituted 1,2,3-triazine-4-carboxylate derivatives cleanly in high yields. Unexpected 1,2,4-triazine derivatives were also obtained as minor products during deoxygenation of 1,2,3-triazine-4-carboxylate 1-oxides having an aliphatic substituent at the 5-position.

Abstract
Visible light photocatalysis is a rapidly developing branch of chemical synthesis with outstanding sustainable potential and improved reaction design. However, the challenge is that many particular chemical reactions may require dedicated tuned photoreactors to achieve maximal efficiency. This is a critical stumbling block unless the possibility for reactor design becomes available directly in the laboratories. In this work, customized laboratory photoreactors were developed with temperature stabilization and the ability to adapt different LED light sources of various wavelengths. We explore two important concepts for the design of photoreactors: reactors for performing multiple parallel experiments and reactors suitable for scale-up synthesis, allowing a rapid increase in the product amount. Reactors of the first type were efficiently made of metal using metal laser sintering, and reactors of the second type were successfully manufactured from plastic using fused filament fabrication. Practical evaluation has shown good accuracy of the temperature stabilization in the range typically required for organic synthesis for both types of reactors. Synthetic application of 3D printed reactors has shown good utility in test reactions-furan C-H arylation and thiol-yne coupling. The critical effect of temperature stabilization was established for the furan arylation reaction: heating of the reaction mixture may lead to the total vanishing of photochemical effect.

Abstract
Photoinduced chemical transformations have received in recent years a tremendous amount of attention, providing a plethora of opportunities to synthetic organic chemists. However, performing a photochemical transformation can be quite a challenge because of various issues related to the delivery of photons. These challenges have barred the widespread adoption of photochemical steps in the chemical industry. However, in the past decade, several technological innovations have led to more reproducible, selective, and scalable photoinduced reactions. Herein, we provide a comprehensive overview of these exciting technological advances, including flow chemistry, high-throughput experimentation, reactor design and scale-up, and the combination of photo- and electro-chemistry.

Abstract
A simple, efficient and user-friendly protocol for the preparation of structurally diverse enaminones from enamides has been developed. The strategy is based on a photo-induced intramolecular Fries-type rearrangement. The photochemical transformation proceeds under mild reaction conditions, applies to a broad substrate range, is highly economic, and limits the amount of waste produced. The proposed methodology was used as a key step in the synthesis of dihydrojasmone an important fragrance compound.

Abstract
Different methods for the direct enantioselective photochemical synthesis of heterocycles are presented. Currently, asymmetric catalysis with templates involving hydrogen bonds or metal complexes is intensively investigated. Enzyme catalysis can be simplified under photochemical conditions. For example, in multi enzyme systems, one or more enzyme catalytic steps can be replaced by simple photochemical reactions. Chiral induction in photochemical reactions performed with homochiral crystals is highly efficient. Such reactions can also be carried out with crystalline inclusion complexes. Inclusion of a photochemical substrate and an enantiopure compound in zeolites also leads to enantioselective compounds. In all these methods, the conformational mobility of the photochemical substrates is reduced or controlled. Memory of chirality is a particular case in which a chiral information is temporally lost but the rigid conformations stabilize the molecular structure which leads to the formation of enantiopure compounds. Such studies allows a profound understanding on how particular conformations determine the configuration of the final products.Graphical abstract.

Abstract
A novel photochemical method for the construction of previously unknown substituted 4a,7a-dihydroxy-5-methyl-3,4,4a,7a-tetrahydro-1H-cyclopenta[b]pyridine-2,7-diones based on readily available allomaltol derivatives containing an amide group was established. The proposed approach includes the photoinduced contraction of an allomaltol ring and the subsequent intramolecular cyclization of an unstable α-hydroxy-1,2-diketone intermediate. For the first time we have shown the use of a side chain amide function as a trapping element for the final cyclization of photogenerated α-hydroxy-1,2-diketones. The structures of two synthesized photoproducts were determined by X-ray diffraction.

Abstract
The controlled actuation of liquid metal (LM) droplets has recently shown great potential in developing smart actuating systems for applications in robotics. However, there is a lack of a simple approach for the precise manipulation of multiple LM droplets in a 2D plane, which hinders the development of complex control over droplets for realizing useful robotic applications. To overcome this challenge, here, a versatile and powerful light-induced manipulation of LM droplets is presented. The key principle is to selectively activate phototransistors in an electrolyte using infrared laser beams to electrically control LM droplets via Marangoni forces. This approach shows the ability of inducing concurrent motion, splitting, and merging of multiple LM droplets simply using light without complex and bulky systems. Parameters affecting the manipulation of LM droplets are thoroughly investigated. Moreover, a vehicle carrier driven by wheels composed of multiple LM droplets for making a light-controlled relay is demonstrated. We believe such a light-induced control method for manipulating LM droplets has the potential for advancing the development of future field-programmable robotics and droplet-based soft collaborative robots.

Fluorescent Chitosan Modified with Heterocyclic Aromatic Dyes. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14216429.

Abstract
Chitosan is a valuable, functional, and biodegradable polysaccharide that can be modified to expand its applications. This work aimed to obtain chitosan derivatives with fluorescent properties. Three heterocyclic aromatic dyes (based on benzimidazole, benzoxazole, and benzothiazole) were synthesized and used for the chemical modification of chitosan. Emission spectroscopy revealed the strong fluorescent properties of the obtained chitosan derivatives even at a low N-substitution degree of the dye. The effect of high-energy ultraviolet radiation (UV–C) on modified chitosan samples was studied in solution with UV–Vis spectroscopy and in the solid state with FTIR spectroscopy. Moreover, cytotoxicity towards three different cell types was evaluated to estimate the possibilities of biomedical applications of such fluorescent chitosan-based materials. It was found that the three new derivatives of chitosan were characterized by good resistance to UV–C, which suggests the possibility of using these materials in medicine and various industrial sectors.

Abstract
Photochemical reactions are a key method to generate radical intermediates. Often under these conditions no toxic reagents are necessary. During recent years, photo-redox catalytic reactions considerably push this research domain. These reaction conditions are particularly mild and safe which enables the transformation of poly-functional substrates into complex products. The synthesis of heterocyclic compounds is particularly important since they play an important role in the research of biologically active products. In this review, photochemical radical cyclization reactions of imines and related compounds such as oximes, hydrazones and chloroimines are presented. Reaction mechanisms are discussed and the structural diversity and complexity of the products are presented. Radical intermediates are mainly generated in two ways: (1) electronic excitation is achieved by light absorption of the substrates. (2) The application of photoredox catalysis is now systematically studied for these reactions. Recently, also excitation of charge transfer complexes has been studied in this context from many perspectives.

Abstract
We elaborate a novel one-step photochemical method for the synthesis of spiro-γ-butyrolactone derivatives from 3-hydroxypyran-4-ones. The suggested approach is based on a cascade process including initial photoinduced contraction of 4-pyranone ring followed by intramolecular cyclization leading to the final spiro system. A distinctive feature of the proposed method is intramolecular trapping of unstable α-hydroxydiketone intermediate formed in situ as a result of a photochemical reaction. The structures of two synthesized 1-oxaspiro[4.4]non-8-ene-2,6,7-triones were determined by X-ray diffraction.

Abstract
DFT calculations on the photoisomerization of hydrazones of 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives to 1,2,5-triazoles have been performed showing that the reaction occurred through the first excited singlet state. The Z isomer gave the reaction through a hydrogen atom transfer of the hydrazonic nitrogen atom to the nitrogen atom in four position on the oxadiazole ring. In this case, the isomerization was a concerted reaction. The E isomer could undergo the same reaction. However, it could not be a concerted reaction but required the presence of a ring opening intermediate.

Abstract
Photochemical processes, such as isomerizations and cycloadditions, have proven to be very useful in the construction of highly strained molecular frameworks. Photoinduced ring strain enables subsequent exergonic reactions which do not require the input of additional chemical energy and provides a variety of attractive synthetic options leading to complex structures. This review covers the progress achieved in the application of sequences combining excitation by ultraviolet light to form strained intermediates, which are further transformed to lower energy products in strain-release reactions. As ring strain is considerable in small ring systems, photogenerated three- and four-membered rings will be covered, mainly focusing on examples from 2000 to May 2020.

Abstract
A continuous flow process is presented, which directly converts isoxazoles into their oxazole counterparts via a photochemical transposition reaction. This results in the first reported exploitation of this transformation to establish its scope and synthetic utility. A series of various di- and trisubstituted oxazole products bearing different appendages including different heterocyclic moieties were realized through this rapid and mild flow process. Furthermore, the robustness of this approach was demonstrated by generating gram quantities of selected products while also providing insights into likely intermediates.
