Within the wide family of gold-catalyzed reactions, gold photocatalysis intrinsically features
unique elementary steps. When gold catalysis meets photocatalysis, a valence change of …

Gold chemistry has developed extensively in the past decade, and a dozen good reviews
have been presented discussing this progress. Few however have paid close attention to …

The use of alkyl chlorides as C (sp 3)-hybridized electrophiles for the construction of C (sp 3)–
C (sp 3) bonds represents one of the most challenging issues in organic synthesis …

The amidated peptides are an important class of biologically active compounds due to their
unique biological properties and wide applications as potential peptide drugs and …

Aromatic tertiary amines are one of the most important classes of organic compounds in
organic chemistry and drug discovery. It is difficult to efficiently construct tertiary amines from …

Herein, we present a comprehensive study on the use of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-
ligated boryl radicals to enable C (sp3)–C (sp3) bond formation under visible-light irradiation …

While 1, 1-diboryl (gem-diboryl) compounds are valuable synthetic building blocks,
currently, related studies have mainly focused on those 1, 1-diboryl alkanes without a hetero …

This report describes the unprecedented electrooxidation of a solvent (eg, DMF)‐ligated
B2cat2 complex, whereby a solvent‐stabilized boryl radical is formed via quasi‐homolytic …

Gold-catalysed oxidative coupling reactions often require strong oxidants because of the
high redox potential of Au (i)/Au (iii)(1.41 V versus the saturated calomel electrode), resulting …

Ruthenium (II) polypyridine complexes are among the most popular sensitizers in
photocatalysis, but they face some severe limitations concerning accessible excited-state …
