报告简介：Arguably, aromatic aldehydes are the most fundamentally important substances used in organic synthesis. Therefore, the availability of predictable and chemoselective methods for aldehyde synthesis has a profound impact on chemical synthesis. Classical approaches to aromatic aldehydes are not atom- and step-economical. The state-of-the-art methods for the synthesis of aldehydes rely on transition metal catalyzed (hydro)formylation reactions. Achieving truly practical processes will streamline aldehyde synthesis, but require a fundamentally distinct design paradigm. Toward this end, recently our research laboratories initiated a program aimed at developing sustainable, environmentally friendly, and mild strategies for aldehyde synthesis. In this context, new formylation reagents are designed and new reactivities are harnessed for developing unprecedented organocatalytic photoredox processes for efficient synthesis of structurally diverse aliphatic aldehydes, (hetero)aromatic aldehydes, and α, β-unsaturated aldehydes from feedstock chemicals.
