The emergence of modern photocatalysis, characterized by mildness and selectivity, has
significantly spurred innovative late-stage C–H functionalization approaches that make use …

Herein we disclose a strategy to promote the hydrocarboxylation of unactivated alkenes
using photochemical activation of formate salts. We illustrate that an alternative initiation …

Catalytic desaturations are important strategies for the functionalization of organic
molecules. In nature, flavoenzymes mediate the formation of α, β‐unsaturated carbonyl …

Functionalized sulfides are important in many areas of science, ranging from chemical
biology through drug discovery to organic materials chemistry. Sulfides bearing pendant …

A highly effective approach based on an organophotocatalytic α-C (sp3)–H functionalization/
radical cyclization cascade has been developed. This method enables the synthesis of …

Unnatural amino acids, and their synthesis by the late‐stage functionalization (LSF) of
peptides, play a crucial role in areas such as drug design and discovery. Historically, the …

The chemical synthesis of unnatural amino acids (UAA) is a key strategy for preparing
designed peptides, including pharmaceutically active compounds. Alterations of existing …

Herein, a paired oxidative and reductive electrolysis enabled weak Brønsted base-promoted
amination of arenes with N, N-dialkyl formamides as the amine source is described. The …

Herein, we demonstrate a green atom-economical synthesis of benzimidazoles via the flavin-
photocatalysed aerobic oxidative cross-dehydrogenative coupling of toluenes and o …

The isoalloxazine heterocycle of flavin cofactors reacts with various nucleophiles to form
covalent adducts with important functions in enzymes. Molecular flavin models allow for the …
