Abstract
In recent decades, the traceless nature of visible photons has been exploited for the development of efficient synthetic strategies for the photoconversion of colourless compounds, namely, photocatalysis, chromophore activation, and the formation of an electron donor/acceptor (EDA) complex. However, the use of photoreactive coloured organic compounds is the optimal strategy to boost visible photons as ideal reagents in synthetic protocols. In view of such premises, the present review aims to provide its readership with a collection of recent photochemical strategies facilitated via direct light absorption by coloured molecules. The protocols have been classified and presented according to the nature of the intermediate/excited state achieved during the transformation.

Abstract
Organophotocatalytic cascade cross-dehydrogenative-coupling/cyclization reaction of o-hydroxyarylenaminones with α-amino acid derivatives for the construction of α-chromone substituted α-amino acid derivatives was developed. Various N-arylglycine esters, amides and dipeptides underwent the cascade cyclization reaction well with o-hydroxyarylenaminones to afford the corresponding 3-aminoalkyl chromones in good to excellent yields. This approach consists of visible-light-promoted oxidation of α-amino acid derivatives, the Mannich reaction, and intramolecular nucleophilic cyclization under acidic conditions, and features a wide reaction scope, a simple operation and mild reaction conditions, which may have the potential to be used for the synthesis of bioactive molecules.

Abstract
In the last few years, many reagents and protocols have been developed to allow for the efficient fluorofunctionalization of a diverse set of scaffolds ranging from alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and (hetero)arenes. The concomitant rise of organofluorine chemistry and visible light-mediated synthesis have synergistically expanded the fields and have mutually benefitted from developments in both fields. In this context, visible light driven formations of radicals containing fluorine have been a major focus for the discovery of new bioactive compounds. This review details the recent advances and progress made in visible light-mediated fluoroalkylation and heteroatom centered radical generation.

Abstract
We report a ring-opening trifluoromethylthiolation of cyclopropanols with TsSCF3 by using Cu(OAc)2 as the catalyst. Moreover, by using this strategy, the trifluoromethylselenolation of cyclopropanols with Se-(trifluoromethyl) 4-methoxybenzenesulfonoselenoate to access β-SeCF3-substituted carbonyl compounds is achieved for the first time. The broad substrate scope, readily accessible reagents and cheap catalyst make this protocol an alternative and efficient method for the synthesis of β-SCF3-substituted or β-SeCF3-substituted carbonyl compounds.

Abstract
A facile cascade reaction for the site selective synthesis of 2-cyanochromones is described. By using simple o-hydroxyphenyl enaminones and potassium ferrocyanide trihydrate (K4[Fe(CN)6]3·3H2O) as starting materials and I2/AlCl3 as promoters, the products are furnished via tandem chromone ring formation and C-H cyanation. The in situ formation of 3-iodochromone and a formal 1,2-hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) process account for the unconventional site selectivity. In addition, the synthesis of 2-cyanoquinolin-4-one has been realized by employing corresponding 2-aminophenyl enaminone as substrate.

Abstract
Alkenes and their derivatives are featured widely in a variety of natural products, pharmaceuticals, and advanced materials. Significant efforts have been made toward the development of new and practical methods to access this important class of compounds by selectively activating the alkenyl C(sp2)-H bonds in recent years. In this comprehensive review, we describe the state-of-the-art strategies for the direct functionalization of alkenyl sp2 C-H and C-F bonds until June 2022. Moreover, metal-free, photoredox, and electrochemical strategies are also covered. For clarity, this review has been divided into two parts; the first part focuses on currently available alkenyl sp2 C-H functionalization methods using different alkene derivatives as the starting materials, and the second part describes the alkenyl sp2 C-F bond functionalization using easily accessible gem-difluoroalkenes as the starting material. This review includes the scope, limitations, mechanistic studies, stereoselective control (using directing groups as well as metal-migration strategies), and their applications to complex molecule synthesis where appropriate. Overall, this comprehensive review aims to document the considerable advancements, current status, and emerging work by critically summarizing the contributions of researchers working in this fascinating area and is expected to stimulate novel, innovative, and broadly applicable strategies for alkenyl sp2 C-H and C-F bond functionalizations in the coming years.
