UV light-mediated difunctionalization of alkenes through an aroyl radical addition/1,4-/1,2-aryl shift has been described. The resulted aroyl radical from a photocleavage reaction added to acrylamide ...

Plants produce an astonishing variety of chemical substances. Most of these metabolites are involved in chemical communication and serve to defend against pests, protect against pathogens, and ...

We report the first external photocatalyst-free 1,2-difunctionalization of alkenes via radical-polar crossover pathway combined with remote 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer. In this strategy, indole ...

The preparation of epoxides is efficiently achieved in mild conditions by reaction of alkenes with trichloroisocyanuric acid in aqueous acetone followed by treatment of the resulting chlorohydrin with ...
