Aldehydes and aziridines are both intrinsic electrophilic reagents, and thus the coupling reaction between these two compounds is highly challenging. In this protocol, the merger of nickel and hydrogen-atom-transfer photocatalysis successfully enables the ring opening of N-tosyl styrenyl aziridines with aldehydes, providing a novel and atom-economical access to a variety of β-amino ketones with complete

The mechanism of photodecomposition of aryl sulfones has been investigated by using both steady-state and time-resolved techniques. Direct evidence for radical and triplet-state intermediates is provided. A correlation is found between the dynamics of reaction of the intermediate triplet states with the stabilities of the intermediate radicals.
An excellent enantioselective hydroamination of arylalkenes with Lewis basic secondary amines was developed, via an elegant cobalt-hydride mediated oxidative hydrogen atom transfer (MHAT) process, leading to the synthesis of a series of valuable α-chiral tertiary amines in good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities.

The direct synthesis of sterically hindered aldehydes is highly challenging. Herein, we report a direct approach to generate such compounds via electroreductive cleavage of the C(sp3)–O bond of activated alcohols. Under the established reaction conditions, benzylic radical intermediates were efficiently generated. A subsequent radical–polar crossover generated carbanions that further reacted with N
