Abstract
Photocatalysis has shown great potential in organic reactions, while controlling the selectivity is a long-standing goal and challenge due to the involvement of various radical intermediates. In this study, we have realized selectivity control in the photocatalytic conversion of alcohols via engineering the surface static electric field of the CdS semiconductor. By leveraging the Au-CdS interaction to adjust lattice strain, which influences the intensity of the surface static electric field, we altered the pathways of alcohol conversion. The increased intensity of the surface static electric field changed the activation pathways of the C-H/O-H bond, leading to the selective formation of targeted C/O-based radical intermediates and altering the selectivity from aldehydes to dimers. A wide range of alcohols, such as aromatic alcohol and thiophenol alcohol, were selectively converted into aldehyde or dimer. This work provides an effective strategy for selectively controlling reaction pathways by generating a surface electric field.

Abstract
Redox-inactive metal ions are essential in modulating the reactivity of various oxygen-containing metal complexes and metalloenzymes, including photosystem II (PSII). The heart of this unique membrane-protein complex comprises the Mn4CaO5 cluster, in which the Ca2+ ion acts as a critical cofactor in the splitting of water in PSII. However, there is still a lack of studies involving Ca-based reactive oxygen species (ROS) systems, and the exact nature of the interaction between the Ca2+ center and ROS in PSII still generates intense debate. Here, harnessing a novel Ca-TEMPO complex supported by the β-diketiminate ligand to control the activation of O2, we report the isolation and structural characterization of hitherto elusive Ca peroxides, a homometallic Ca hydroperoxide and a heterometallic Ca/K peroxide. Our studies indicate that the presence of K+ cations is a key factor controlling the outcome of the oxygenation reaction of the model Ca-TEMPO complex. Combining experimental observations with computational investigations, we also propose a mechanistic rationalization for the reaction outcomes. The designed approach demonstrates metal-TEMPO complexes as a versatile platform for O2 activation and advances the understanding of Ca/ROS systems.

Abstract
Benzylic C-H bonds can be converted into numerous functional groups, often by mechanisms that involve hydrogen atom transfer as the key bond breaking step. The abstracting species is most often an electrophilic radical, which makes these reactions best suited to electron-rich C-H bonds to achieve appropriate polarity matching. Thus, electron deficient systems such as pyridine and pyrimidine are relatively unreactive, and therefore underrepresented in substrate scopes. In this report, we describe a new method for heterobenzylic hydroxylation-essentially an unknown reaction in the case of pyrimidines-that makes use of an iodine(III) reagent to afford very high selectivity towards electron-deficient azaheterocycles in substrates with more than one reactive position and prevents over-oxidation to carbonyl products. The identification of key reaction byproducts supports a mechanism that involves radical coupling in the bond forming step.

Nat Commun 2024; 15:2897.

Abstract
Cross-dehydrogenative coupling of C(sp3)-H bonds is an ideal approach for C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond construction. However, conventional approaches mainly rely on a single activation mode by either stoichiometric oxidants or electrochemical oxidation, which would lead to inferior selectivity in the reaction between similar C(sp3)-H bonds. Herein we describe our development of a paired electrocatalysis strategy to access an unconventional selectivity in the cross-dehydrogenative coupling of alcoholic α C(sp3)-H with allylic (or benzylic) C-H bonds, which combines hydrogen evolution reaction catalysis with hydride transfer catalysis. To maximize the synergistic effect of the catalyst combinations, a HER catalyst pentacoordinated Co-salen is disclosed. The catalyst displays a large redox-potential gap (1.98 V) and suitable redox potential. With the optimized catalyst combination, an electrochemical cross-dehydrogenative coupling protocol features unconventional chemoselectivity (C-C vs. C-O coupling), excellent functional group tolerance (84 examples), valuable byproduct (hydrogen), and high regio- and site-selectivity. A plausible reaction mechanism is also proposed to rationalize the experimental observations.

Abstract
The controllable photocatalytic C-C coupling of methanol to produce ethylene glycol (EG) is a highly desirable but challenging objective for replacing the current energy-intensive thermocatalytic process. Here, we develop a metal-free porous boron nitride catalyst that demonstrates exceptional selectivity in the photocatalytic production of EG from methanol under mild conditions. Comprehensive experiments and calculations are conducted to thoroughly investigate the reaction mechanism, revealing that the OB3 unit in the porous BN plays a critical role in the preferential activation of C-H bond in methanol to form ⋅CH2OH via a concerted proton-electron transfer mechanism. More prominent energy barriers are observed for the further dehydrogenation of the ⋅CH2OH intermediate on the OB3 unit, inhibiting the formation of some other by-products during the catalytic process. Additionally, a small downhill energy barrier for the coupling of ⋅CH2OH in the OB3 unit promotes the selective generation of EG. This study provides valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms and can serve as a guide for the design and optimization of photocatalysts for efficient and selective EG production under mild conditions.

Abstract
The conversion of ethanol into high-valuable chemicals and H2 by photocatalytic process provides a sustainable approach to produce carbon-chain-prolonged chemicals and hydrogen energy. In this article, Ni-MOF-74 was added to fabricate the hierarchical CdS/NiS-N composites with an elevated specific surface area during the hydrothermal synthesis of CdS microsphere, and the Ni-MOF-74 facilitate the self-assemble growth of CdS and provide a source of Ni for the formation of NiS. The as-prepared photocatalyst was subjected to photocatalytic ethanol conversion, and the hierarchical composite material CdS/NiS-N (100) formed by adding 100 mg of Ni-MOF-74 exhibits the highest photocatalytic activity and stability in an ethanol aqueous solution with a water content of 10 %. Under visible light irradiation, the conversion rate of ethanol reached 15.2 % at the photocatalytic reaction of 5 h. The selectivity of 2,3-butanediol(2,3-BDO) was 25 %, and the selectivity of acetaldehyde(AA) was 63 %. Through various characterizations, it has been proven that a large specific surface area and the coupling interface between CdS and NiS are key factors in improving photocatalytic performance. This work provides an effective strategy for constructing photocatalysts with coupled cocatalysts/semiconductors and large specific surface areas.

Abstract
The one-step visible light-induced direct alkylation of the C8-H bond for purine derivatives by ethers was developed using Eosin Y as the photocatalyst and t-BuOOH as the oxidant at room temperature. This method describes the coupling of the α-C of the ether to the C8 of purine. Of particular interest is that substrates include purines with various functional groups and even unprotected 9H-purines. The protocol provides an effective method for the synthesis of 8-alkylpurine derivatives with high atom economy and high regioselectivity.

Abstract
Ru and Rh nanoparticles catalyze the selective H/D exchange in phosphines using D2 as the deuterium source. The position of the deuterium incorporation is determined by the structure of the P-based substrates, while activity depends on the nature of the metal, the properties of the stabilizing agents, and the type of the substituent on phosphorus. The appropriate catalyst can thus be selected either for the exclusive H/D exchange in aromatic rings or also for alkyl substituents. The selectivity observed in each case provides relevant information on the coordination mode of the ligand. Density functional theory calculations provide insights into the H/D exchange mechanism and reveal a strong influence of the phosphine structure on the selectivity. The isotope exchange proceeds via C-H bond activation at nanoparticle edges. Phosphines with strong coordination through the phosphorus atom such as PPh3 or PPh2Me show preferred deuteration at ortho positions of aromatic rings and at the methyl substituents. This selectivity is observed because the corresponding C-H moieties can interact with the nanoparticle surface while the phosphine is P-coordinated, and the C-H activation results in stable metallacyclic intermediates. For weakly coordinating phosphines such as P(o-tolyl)3, the interaction with the nanoparticle can occur directly through phosphine substituents, and then, other deuteration patterns are observed.

Abstract
A convenient and straightforward approach for the radical cascade cyclization/hydrolysis of CN-containing 1,6-enynes with simple ethers under metal- and base-free conditions is described. This strategy provides a variety of valuable ethers-substituted polyheterocycles via the construction of three C-C bonds, one C=O bond, and two new six-membered rings within a single procedure. The resulting products can smoothly undergo follow-up conversions to various useful scaffolds. The methodology shows excellent functional group tolerance, high step- and atom- economy, and mild reaction conditions, which can be further scaled up to gram quantity in a satisfactory yield.

Abstract
Herein, we report a method that uses antifungal tavaborole as a co-catalyst for direct α-C-H alkylation of structurally diverse alcohols through photoredox catalysis. The protocol features mild conditions, remarkable scope, and wide functional group tolerance, which allows for the construction of a wide array of highly functionalized alcohols, including homoserine derivatives and C-glycosyl amino acids. We also demonstrate the synthetic applications of this methodology to the late-stage functionalization of pharmaceuticals and natural products.

Abstract
Acyclic α-tertiary ethers represent a highly prevalent functionality, common to high-value bioactive molecules, such as pharmaceuticals and natural products, and feature as crucial synthetic handles in their construction. As such their synthesis has become an ever-more important goal in synthetic chemistry as the drawbacks of traditional strong base- and acid-mediated etherifications have become more limiting. In recent years, the generation of highly reactive intermediates via redox approaches has facilitated the synthesis of highly sterically-encumbered ethers and accordingly these strategies have been widely applied in α-tertiary ether synthesis. This review summarises and appraises the state-of-the-art in the application of redox strategies enabling acyclic α-tertiary ether synthesis.

Abstract
The highly regioselective C6-H hydroxylalkylation of purines and purine nucleosides within 10 min via the α-C(sp3)-H functionalization of alcohols at room temperature is reported here for the first time. The reaction tolerated various functional groups, which have the potential for further modification to afford other valuable molecules. The reported method avoids metal catalysts, light, and protecting groups, giving a direct strategy to access 6-substitued alkylated purines and nucleosides with pharmaceutical bioactivities.

Abstract
An efficient and convenient method to synthesize 6-oxyalkylated 1,2,4-triazine-3,5(2H, 4H)-diones has been developed via visible-light-induced cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction between 1,2,4-triazine-3,5(2H, 4H)-diones and ethers with a wide range of functional group tolerance. The present transformation employs the cheap and low-toxic 2-tert-butylanthraquinone as a metal-free photocatalyst and air as a green oxidant at room temperature. Moreover, this reaction can also be driven by sunlight as a clean energy resource. The synthetic utility of this method is further demonstrated by gram-scale reaction and application in the preparation of key intermediates of bioactive molecules.

Abstract
An iridium complex-catalyzed reductive etherification of α,β-unsaturated ketones and aldehydes with primary alcohols is presented, affording allyl ethers in excellent yields. Deuterated and control experiments showed that this etherification transformation proceeded through a cascade transfer hydrogenation and alcohol condensation process. Moreover, the utility of this protocol is evidenced by the gram-scale performance.

Abstract
The insertion of carbenes into the α-C-H bonds of ethers represents one of the most powerful approaches to access polysubstituted α-branched ethers. However, intermolecular carbene insertions remain challenging, since current approaches are generally limited to the use of toxic and potentially explosive α-diazocarbonyl compounds. We now report a silver-catalyzed α-C-H benzylation of ethers using bench-stable N-triftosylhydrazones as safe and convenient carbene precursors. This approach is well suited for both inter- and intramolecular insertions to deliver medicinally relevant homobenzylic ethers and 5-8-membered oxacycles in good yields. The synthetic utility of this strategy is demonstrated by its easy scalability, broad scope with valuable functional groups, high regioselectivity, and late-stage functionalization of complex oxygen-containing molecules. The relative reactivities of different types of silver carbenes and C-H bonds were also investigated by experments and DFT calculations.

Abstract
Here, we report a metal-free approach for the construction of methylene-bridged bis-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds via cross-dehydrogenative coupling of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds with 2-methoxyethanol. In addition, we have extended this methodology to synthesize tetra-substituted pyridine derivatives using 1,3-dicarbonyl, 2-methoxyethanol and NH4OAc in one step. The key advantages include accepting a wide range of substrates, utilizing O2 as the sole oxidant, and synthesizing biologically active compounds such as 1,4-dihydropyridine and pyrazole.

Abstract
We report a photochemically induced, hydroxy-directed fluorination that addresses the prevailing challenge of high diastereoselectivity in this burgeoning field. Numerous simple and complex motifs showcase a spectrum of regio- and stereochemical outcomes based on the configuration of the hydroxy group. Notable examples include a long-sought switch in the selectivity of the refractory sclareolide core, an override of benzylic fluorination, and a rare case of 3,3′-difluorination. Furthermore, calculations illuminate a low barrier transition state for fluorination, supporting our notion that alcohols are engaged in coordinated reagent direction. A hydrogen bonding interaction between the innate hydroxy directing group and fluorine is also highlighted for several substrates with 19F–1H HOESY experiments, calculations, and more. We report a photochemical, hydroxy-directed fluorination that addresses the prevailing challenge of high diastereoselectivity. Numerous motifs showcase a range of regio- and stereochemical outcomes based on the configuration of the hydroxy group.![]()

Abstract
The combination of a peptide catalyst and a gold catalyst is presented for enantioselective addition reactions between branched aldehydes and allenamides. The two catalysts act in concert to provide γ,δ‐enamide aldehydes bearing a fully substituted, benzylic stereogenic center – a structural motif common in many natural products and therapeutically active compounds – with good yields and enantioselectivities. The reaction tolerates a variety of alkyl and alkoxy substituted aldehydes and the products can be elaborated into several chiral building blocks bearing either 1,4‐ or 1,5‐ functional group relationships. Mechanistic studies showed that the conformational features of the peptide are important for both the catalytic efficiency and stereochemistry, while a balance of acid/base additives is key for ensuring formation of the desired product over undesired side reactions.

Abstract
We report a general photocatalytic protocol for the remote C(sp3)-H bond amination of free aliphatic alcohols. The electron transfer between the abundant and inexpensive catalyst FeCl3 and simple alkanols under blue LED irradiation enables the alkoxy radical formation under mild redox-neutral conditions, with no need for additional oxidant and prefunctionalization. The subsequent selective 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and amination provide a simple and efficient way to access molecular complexity from readily available and bulk alcohols.

Abstract
The fields of C-H functionalization and photoredox catalysis have garnered enormous interest and utility in the past several decades. Many different scientific disciplines have relied on C-H functionalization and photoredox strategies including natural product synthesis, drug discovery, radiolabeling, bioconjugation, materials, and fine chemical synthesis. In this Review, we highlight the use of photoredox catalysis in C-H functionalization reactions. We separate the review into inorganic/organometallic photoredox catalysts and organic-based photoredox catalytic systems. Further subdivision by reaction class-either sp2 or sp3 C-H functionalization-lends perspective and tactical strategies for use of these methods in synthetic applications.
