Oximes are valuable synthetic intermediates for the preparation of a variety of functional groups. To date, the stereoselective synthesis of oximes remains a major challenge, as most current synthetic methods either provide mixtures of E and Z isomers or furnish the thermodynamically preferred E isomer. Herein we report a mild and general method to achieve Z isomers of aryl oximes by photoisomerization of oximes via visible-light-mediated energy transfer (EnT) catalysis. Facile access to (Z)-oximes provides opportunities to achieve regio- and chemoselectivity complementary to those of widely used transformations employing oxime starting materials. We show an enhanced one-pot protocol for photocatalyzed oxime isomerization and subsequent Beckmann rearrangement that enables novel reactivity with alkyl groups migrating preferentially over aryl groups, reversing the regioselectivity of the traditional Beckmann reaction. Chemodivergent N- or O- cyclizations of alkenyl oximes are also demonstrated, leading to nitrones or cyclic oxime ethers, respectively.

The base-promoted aromatic [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement of N-acyl-O-arylhydroxylamines giving α-(2-hydroxyphenyl)amides was successfully demonstrated. The substrates were prepared from N-substituted hydroxylamines by N-acylation followed by copper(I)-mediated O-arylation with boronic acids. Treatment of the substrates with lithium hexamethyldisilazide (LiHMDS) in THF at 0 °C to room temperature generated the corresponding amide enolates. The aromatic [3,3] rearrangement of the enolates provided the desired products in moderate to good yields. A crossover experiment produced only intramolecular products and clarified that the reaction proceeds via the aromatic [3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement, not a bond-cleavage–recombination process. Our method is a formal α-arylation of amides.

Two new bromotyrosine alkaloids, pseudoceralidinone A (1) and aplysamine 7 (2), along with three known compounds were isolated from the Australian sponge Pseudoceratina verrucosa. Their structures were characterized by NMR and MS data and the synthetic ro
