The first catalytic strategy to harness a new chloromethane radical from dichloromethane under dual Ni/photoredox catalytic conditions has been developed. Compared with traditional two-electron reductive process associated with metallic reductants, this method via a single-electron approach can proceed under exceptionally mild conditions (visible light, ambient temperature, no strong base) and exhibits complementary reactivity patterns. It affords a broad scope of many functional groups, including alkenyl, which suffers cyclopropanation in previous routes. The diarylmethane-d2 compounds can be readily available with this transformation.
The conversion of alcohols to halides using a filterable phosphine source

The conversion of primary and secondary alcohols to chlorides and bromides using 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (diphos) is described. Use of this reagent in lieu of the typical triphenylphosphine-carbontetrahalide complex provides a facile means of purifying the desired halide from the phosphine-oxide byproduct.
Novel reductive Friedel-Crafts alkylation of aromatics catalyzed by indium compounds: Chemoselective utilization of carbonyl moieties as alkylating reagents

Reductive Friedel-Crafts alkylation of aromatics with ketones or aldehydes was characteristically catalyzed by indium compounds in preference to general catalysts like AlCl3 and BF3, where hydrosilanes would play an important role both as a hydride donor and as a co-catalyst. Chemoselective utilization of ketone moieties as alkylating reagents took place even in the presence of halogen, ester or ether moieties which are very susceptible under traditional Friedel-Crafts conditions. Discussion on a plausible intermediate was carried out by some controlled experiments.
