Abstract
A photoredox-neutral radical-radical cross-coupling is described for the synthesis of 3-hydroxy-3-alkyloxindoles using isatins and benzyl carboxylic acids as substrates and 2,4,5,6-tetra(9H-carbazol-9-yl)isophthalonitrile (4CzIPN) as the photocatalyst. The method features a broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance, providing 30 sterically hindered alcohols with moderate to excellent yields. This approach utilizes inexpensive and commercially available starting materials, avoiding the use of transition metals, extra oxidants/reductants, and harsh reaction conditions, showcasing significant applicability and environmental friendliness.

Abstract
We identified a ternary hybrid catalyst system composed of an acridinium photoredox catalyst, a thiophosphoric imide (TPI) catalyst, and a titanium complex catalyst that promoted an intermolecular addition reaction of organic molecules with various ketones through sp3 C-H bond activation. The thiyl radical generated via single-electron oxidation of TPI by the excited photoredox catalyst abstracted a hydrogen atom from organic molecules such as toluene, benzyl alcohol, alkenes, aldehydes, and THF. The thus-generated carbon-centered radical species underwent addition to ketones and aldehydes. This intrinsically unfavorable step was promoted by single-electron reduction of the intermediate alkoxy radical by catalytically generated titanium(III) species. This reaction provided an efficient and straightforward route to a broad range of tertiary alcohols and was successfully applied to late-stage functionalization of drugs or their derivatives. The proposed mechanism was supported by both experimental and theoretical studies.

Abstract
Reported herein is a photoredox-catalyzed amination of o-hydroxyarylenaminones with tert-butyl ((perfluoropyridin-4-yl)oxy)carbamate, a versatile amidyl-radical precursor developed in our laboratory. This work establishes a new cascade pathway for the assembly of a range of 3-aminochromones under mild conditions. Downstream transformations of the obtained 3-aminochromones to construct diverse amino pyrimidines greatly broaden the applications of this photocatalyzed protocol.

Abstract
The visible light-driven α-alkylation of N-aryl tetrahydroisoquinolines was initiated through electron donor-acceptor complex photochemistry. The reaction can proceed smoothly without the addition of any photocatalysts, transition-metal catalysts, or additional oxidants. The proposed mechanism was supported by various mechanistic studies, and the reactive open-shell alkyl radicals were generally produced from an alkylamine and underwent radical coupling for alkylating a wide range of N-aryl tetrahydroisoquinolines.

Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis of protected 1,2-amino alcohols starting from carbonyl compounds and α-silyl amines. The reaction is enabled by a Cr/photoredox dual catalytic system that allows the in situ generation of α-amino carbanion equivalents which act as nucleophiles. The unique nature of this reaction was demonstrated through the aminoalkylation of ketones and an acyl silane, classes of electrophiles that were previously unreactive toward addition of alkyl-Cr reagents. Overall, this reaction broadens the scope of Cr-mediated carbonyl alkylations and discloses an underexplored retrosynthetic strategy for the synthesis of 1,2-amino alcohols.

Abstract
Radical-radical couplings are mostly nearly diffusion-controlled processes. Therefore, the selective cross-coupling of two different radicals is challenging and not a synthetically valuable transformation. However, if the radicals have different lifetimes and if they are generated at equal rates, cross-coupling will become the dominant process. This high cross-selectivity is based on a kinetic phenomenon called the persistent radical effect (PRE). In this Review, an explanation of the PRE supported by simulations of simple model systems is provided. Radical stabilities are discussed within the context of their lifetimes, and various examples of PRE-mediated radical-radical couplings in synthesis are summarized. It is shown that the PRE is not restricted to the coupling of a persistent with a transient radical. If one coupling partner is longer-lived than the other transient radical, the PRE operates and high cross-selectivity is achieved. This important point expands the scope of PRE-mediated radical chemistry. The Review is divided into two parts, namely 1) the coupling of persistent or longer-lived organic radicals and 2) "radical-metal crossover reactions"; here, metal-centered radical species and more generally longer-lived transition-metal complexes that are able to react with radicals are discussed-a field that has flourished recently.

Abstract
Asymmetric H-bonding catalysis as a viable strategy for enantioselective radical coupling of ketones is demonstrated. With a visible-light-mediated dual catalytic system involving a dicyanopyrazine-derived chromophore (DPZ) photosensitizer and a chiral phosphoric acid (CPA), N-aryl glycines with a variety of 1,2-diketones and isatins underwent a redox-neutral radical coupling process and furnished two series of valuable chiral 1,2-amino tertiary alcohols in high yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities (up to 97% ee). In this catalysis platform, the formation of neutral radical intermediates between ketyl and H-bonding catalyst CPA is responsible for presenting stereocontrolling factors. Its success in this work should provide inspiration for expansion to other readily accessible ketones to react with various radical species, thus leading to a productive approach to access chiral tertiary alcohol derivatives.
