Visible-Light-Induced Homolysis of Earth-Abundant Metal-Substrate Complexes: A Complementary Activation Strategy in Photoredox Catalysis

Youssef Abderrazak et al.

Summary: The mainstream applications of visible-light photoredox catalysis mainly involve precious metal Ru-II or Ir-III complexes or organic dyes with low photostability. Earth-abundant metal-based (MLn)-L-n-type complexes are evolving rapidly as alternative photocatalysts that offer economic and ecological advantages and access to complementary inner-sphere mechanistic modes, transcending the inherent limitations of ultrashort excited-state lifetimes. The process of visible-light-induced homolysis (VLIH) involves the formation of light-absorbing ligated metal-substrate complexes that undergo homolytic cleavage for further transformations.

Iron-Catalyzed C-C Single-Bond Cleavage of Alcohols

Wei Liu et al.

Summary: An iron-catalyzed deconstruction/hydrogenation reaction of alcohols through C-C bond cleavage has been developed via photocatalysis, yielding ketones or aldehydes as products. This process is applicable to tertiary, secondary, and primary alcohols with a wide range of substituents, including complex natural alcohols. Investigating the mechanism uncovered a process involving chlorine radical-enhanced O-H homolysis, assisted by 2,4,6-collidine.

Iron-Catalyzed Photoinduced Remote C(sp3)-H Amination of Free Alcohols

Ni Xiong et al.

Summary: The experiment presents a general photocatalytic method for the remote C(sp(3))-H bond amination of free aliphatic alcohols, utilizing electron transfer between FeCl3 catalyst and alkanols under blue LED irradiation. It enables alkoxy radical formation under mild redox-neutral conditions without the need for additional oxidants and prefunctionalization. The subsequent selective 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and amination offer a simple and efficient way to access molecular complexity from readily available and bulk alcohols.

Copper Catalyzed C(sp3)- H Bond Alkylation via Photoinduced Ligand-to-Metal Charge Transfer

Sean M. Treacy et al.

Summary: By utilizing catalytic CuCl2, various feedstock chemicals can be functionalized through the coupling of unactivated C(sp(3))-H bonds with electron-deficient olefins. This reaction, enabled by Ligand-to-Metal Charge Transfer (LMCT), generates a chlorine radical capable of abstracting strong electron-rich C(sp(3))-H bonds. The protocol offers a simple operation and atom economical approach to generate a highly active hydrogen atom transfer reagent.

Zongnan Zhang et al.

Summary: This research achieved the oxidation of secondary and tertiary alcohols through alpha-C-C bond cleavage using a blue-light-driven iron catalyst, with the first example of oxygenation of simple tertiary alcohols reported. The iron catalyst and blue light are crucial for the formation of highly reactive O radicals and subsequent alpha-C-C bond cleavages.

Photocatalytic C-H activation and the subtle role of chlorine radical complexation in reactivity

Qiaomu Yang et al.

Summary: The reported carbon-hydrogen (C-H) activation of alkanes is actually mediated by the photocatalyst [NEt4](2)[CeCl6], and RO center dot are not intermediates. The generation of chlorine radical (Cl center dot) in the photocatalytic system is found to be the rate-limiting step. Density functional theory calculations support the formation of [Cl center dot][alcohol] adducts, which can manifest a masked RO center dot character.

Iron-Catalyzed Photoinduced LMCT: A 1° C-H Abstraction Enables Skeletal Rearrangements and C(sp3)-H Alkylation

Yi Cheng Kang et al.

Summary: In this study, an iron-catalyzed method was developed for skeletal rearrangement reactions from unactivated C(sp(3))-H bonds to access alkylated products. By utilizing photoinduced ligand-to-metal charge transfer, a chlorine radical is generated at the iron center to abstract electron-rich C(sp(3))-H bonds, leading to the formation and rearrangement of alkyl radicals for the synthesis of alkylated products. Simple adjustments to the reaction conditions enable the selective synthesis of directly alkylated or rearranged-alkylated products.
