This review summarizes synthetic photochemical transformations of naphthalimides and related dicarboximides with alkenes, alkynes, arenes, amines and other functional groups. The reaction portfolio is broad and includes C(=O)-N bond insertions, Paterno-Buchi reactions, [2+2]-cycloadditions, photoreductions and electron-transfer processes. A number of photoinitiated transformations gave highly complex molecules with unusual architecture. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
