Non-natural photoenzymatic reactions reported to date have depended on the excitation of electron donor-acceptor complexes formed between substrates and cofactors within protein active sites to facilitate electron transfer. While this mechanism has unlocked new reactivity, it limits the types of substrates that can be involved in this area of catalysis. Here we demonstrate that direct excitation of flavin hydroquinone within "ene"-reductase active sites enables new substrates to participate in photoenzymatic reactions. We found that by using photoexcitation these enzymes gain the ability to reduce acrylamides through a single electron transfer mechanism.

A cobalt-catalyzed cross-coupling of α-bromo α-fluoro β-lactams with diarylzinc or diallylzinc reagents is herein disclosed. The protocol proved to be general, chemoselective and operationally simple allowing the C4 functionalization of β-lactams. The substrate scope was expanded to α-bromo lactams and amides, α-bromo lactones and esters as well as N- and O-containing heterocycles.

Various aryl aldehydes were efficiently converted into one-carbon extended aryl acetamides or aryl acetic acids through the reaction of their dibromoalkene derivatives with pyrrolidine in the presence of water under very mild conditions.
