Abstract
A highly regioselective route to complex carbocyclic scaffolds through a continuous photochemical process is reported. Crucially, we uncovered that ortho substitutents on the right-hand aryl ring are placed away from a transient carbene species which induces the exclusive regioselectivity observed. By varying the non-symmetrically substituted aryl moiety, we demonstrate how the product outcome favors cyclobutenes for electron-poor and neutral substituents and cycloheptatrienes for more electron-rich systems. Additionally, a photochemically induced rearrangement was uncovered for highly electron-rich substrates that ultimately generates complex hydroperoxides. Overall, this facile one-step process is fast and high yielding and demonstrates the power of photochemistry towards the exploration of new chemical space.

Abstract
A photocatalytic method to selectively synthesize 4-hydroperoxy-2,5-cyclohexadienones from para-alkyl phenols is disclosed. This photosensitized singlet oxygen approach functionalized a variety of electronically diverse para-alkyl phenols in 27-99% isolated yields. Utilizing this dearomative oxidation, (±)-stemenone B and (±)-parvistilbine B were synthesized in 9 and 11 steps, respectively, from commercially available starting materials. Additional experiments revealed the dramatic influence of base and solvent on the selectivity while providing insight into the mechanism of this transformation.

Abstract
Stable tricyclic aminoperoxides can be selectively assembled via a catalyst-free three-component condensation of β,δ'-triketones, H2O2, and an NH-group source such as aqueous ammonia or ammonium salts. This procedure is scalable and can produce gram quantities of tricyclic heterocycles, containing peroxide, nitrogen, and oxygen cycles in one molecule. Amazingly, such complex tricyclic molecules are selectively formed despite the multitude of alternative reaction routes, via equilibration of peroxide, hemiaminal, monoperoxyacetal, and peroxyhemiaminal functionalities! The reaction is initiated by the "stereoelectronic frustration" of H2O2 and combines elements of thermodynamic and kinetic control with a variety of mono-, bi-, and tricyclic structures evolving under the conditions of thermodynamic control until they reach a kinetic wall created by the inverse α-effect, that is, the stereoelectronic penalty for the formation of peroxycarbenium ions and related transition states. Under these conditions, the reaction stops before reaching the most thermodynamically stable products at a stage where three different heterocycles are assembled and fused at the acyclic precursor frame.

Abstract
Angucyclines and angucyclinones represent the largest family of type II PKS-engineered natural products. Chemical analysis of a marine Streptomyces sp. KCB-132 yielded three new members, actetrophenone A (1) and actetrophenols A–B (2–3). Their structures were elucidated by NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography and CD calculations. Actetrophenone A (1) is the first representative of a novel-type angucyclinone bearing a nonaromatic D-ring. Actetrophenol A (2) features a highly reduced and aromatized four-ring system, which is unprecedented for natural products. While (Ra)- and (Sa)-actetrophenol B (3) bear an unprecedented N-acetyltryptamine-substituted tetraphene core skeleton, this is the first report of a pair of atropisomeric isomers in the angucyclinone family. Actetrophenol A (2) exhibits remarkable antibiotic activity, notably including potent activity to multiple resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecium with MIC values of 4 μg/ml, in contrast, the positive control antimicrobial agent penicillin was inactive up to 32 μg/ml.

Abstract
Stable bridged azaozonides can be selectively assembled via a catalyst-free three-component condensation of 1,5-diketones, hydrogen peroxide, and an NH-group source such as aqueous ammonia or ammonium salts. This procedure is scalable and can produce gram quantities of bicyclic stereochemically rich heterocycles. The new azaozonides are thermally stable and can be stored at room temperature for several months without decomposition and for at least 1 year at -10 °C. The chemical stability of azaozonides was explored for their subsequent selective transformations including the first example of an aminoperoxide rearrangement that preserves the peroxide group. The amino group in aminoperoxides has remarkably low nucleophilicity and does not participate in the usual amine alkylation and acylation reactions. These observations and the 15 pKa units decrease in basicity in comparison with a typical dialkyl amine are attributed to the strong hyperconjugative nN→σ*C-O interaction with the two antiperiplanar C-O bonds. Due to the weakness of the complementary nO→σ*C-N donation from the peroxide oxygens (a consequence of "inverse α-effect"), this interaction depletes electron density from the NH moiety, protects it from oxidation, and makes it similar in properties to an amide.

Abstract
A practical and environment-friendly methodology for the construction of β-keto sulfones through visible-light induced direct oxysulfonylation of alkenes with sulfonic acids at ambient temperature under open-air conditions was developed. Most importantly, the reaction proceeded smoothly without the addition of any photocatalyst or strong oxidant, ultimately minimizing the production of chemical waste.
