Benzylic C–H bond functionalization through photo-mediated mesyloxy radical formation Herein, we report a photo-mediated methodology for benzylic C–H bond oxygenation. Our approach employs in situ generated (methylsulfonyloxy)pyridinium mesylate salts to produce mesyloxy radicals apt f...

Cooperative Organosulfur/Photoredox Catalysis Enables Radical-Polar Crossover C(sp3)–N Coupling via Inner-Sphere Electron Shuttling Radical-polar crossover (RPC) is a valuable mechanistic tool for revitalizing traditional radical and polar chemistries by integrating them. However, transitioning from radical to polar pathways acros...

Profs. Hong and Lee at SNU unveil a cooperative catalytic system using organosulfur shuttling to enable inner-sphere C(sp³)–N coupling—bypassing redox limits for late-stage access to complex arylamines. doi.org/10.1021/jacs...

The Careful Combination of Bismuth Compounds and CAAC: Formal Halonium and Nitrenium Transfer via Radical Pathways Fundamental bismuth compounds such as BiCl3 and BiBr(NMe2)2 form simple, colorful adducts with cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbenes. They undergo facile and selective formal X+ and (NMe2)+ transfer from bis...

Photoinduced Intermolecular Radical Hydroalkylation of Olefins via Ligated Boryl Radicals-Mediated Halogen Atom Transfer Abstracts

Back in my university days, I spent hours studying on @organicportal.bsky.social. Today, our own paper is highlighted and feels surreal!🤩

I'm incredibly proud of this work and grateful to my collaborators who made it possible. ❤️
