Regulating the Non‐Noble Metal Catalyst Cu@UiO‐67‐bpy Facilitates the Visible Light‐Induced Regioselective Acetylation of Terminal Alkynes With Arylamines

ABSTRACT The development of heterogeneous catalysts for the efficient construction of acetamide frameworks under mild conditions is of great significance for green pharmaceutical synthesis. An efficient and reusable heterogeneous Cu@UiO‐67‐bpy catalyst is synthesized by a standar...

Visible-Light-Induced Synthesis for Sulfonyl (Thio)chromones and 4-Quinolones from 2-Alknyl Benzaldehydes and Sodium Sulfinates via a Cascade Sulfonylation/Cyclization/Isomerization Processes

Herein, we report a visible-light-mediated photoredox reaction for the synthesis of sulfonyl 4-(thio)chromones and 4-quinolone derivatives. This transformation employs easily accessible 2-alkynyl benzaldehydes and sodium sulfinates as starting materials, enabling a one-pot cascad...
