Abstract
Three-membered carbocyclic and heterocyclic ring structures are versatile synthetic building blocks in organic synthesis with biological importance. Moreover, the inherent strain of these three-membered rings leads to their ring-opening functionalization through C->C, C->N, and C-O bond cleavage. Traditional synthesis and ring-opening methods for these molecules require the use of acid catalysts or transition metals. Recently, electro-organic synthesis has emerged as a powerful tool for initiating new chemical transformations. In this review, the synthetic and mechanistic aspects of electro-mediated synthesis and ring-opening functionalization of three-membered carbo- and heterocycles are highlighted.

Abstract
N-heterocycles are ubiquitous in natural products, pharmaceuticals, organic materials, and numerous functional molecules. Among the current synthetic approaches, transition metal-catalyzed C–H functionalization has gained considerable attention in recent years due to its advantages of simplicity, high atomic economy, and the ready availability of starting materials. In the field of N-heterocycle synthesis via C–H functionalization, nickel has been recognized as one of the most important catalysts. In this review, we will introduce nickel-catalyzed intramolecular and intermolecular pathways for N-heterocycle synthesis from 2008 to 2021.

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
![]()
Benzene exhibits a rich photochemistry
which can provide access
to complex molecular scaffolds that are difficult to access with reactions
in the electronic ground state. While benzene is aromatic in its ground
state, it is antiaromatic in its lowest ππ* excited
states. Herein, we clarify to what extent relief of excited-state
antiaromaticity (ESAA) triggers a fundamental benzene photoreaction:
the photoinitiated nucleophilic addition of solvent to benzene in
acidic media leading to substituted bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-enes. The
reaction scope was probed experimentally, and it was found that silyl-substituted
benzenes provide the most rapid access to bicyclo[3.1.0]hexene derivatives,
formed as single isomers with three stereogenic centers in yields
up to 75% in one step. Two major mechanism hypotheses, both involving
ESAA relief, were explored through quantum chemical calculations and
experiments. The first mechanism involves protonation of excited-state
benzene and subsequent rearrangement to bicyclo[3.1.0]hexenium cation,
trapped by a nucleophile, while the second involves photorearrangement
of benzene to benzvalene followed by protonation and nucleophilic
addition. Our studies reveal that the second mechanism is operative.
We also clarify that similar ESAA relief leads to puckering of S1-state silabenzene and pyridinium ion, where the photorearrangement
of the latter is of established synthetic utility. Finally, we identified
causes for the limitations of the reaction, information that should
be valuable in explorations of similar photoreactions. Taken together,
we reveal how the ESAA in benzene and 6π-electron heterocycles
trigger photochemical distortions that provide access to complex three-dimensional
molecular scaffolds from simple reactants.
