The quantum yield for the release of leaving groups from o-nitrobenzyl “caged” compounds varies greatly with the nature of these leaving groups, for reasons that have never been well understood. We found that the barriers for the primary hydrogen-atom transfer step and the efficient nonradiative processes on the excited singlet and triplet surfaces determine the quantum yields. The...

The laboratory preparation of peptides, once a challenge, is now a standard operation that can be automatised. However, the need for particular protecting groups requiring relatively harsh conditions for their removal (strong acids or bases) and reactive coupling agents can be problematic in specific cases (e.g. in a cell or in a microfluidic device). In this account, we describe our efforts...

n the presence of an alkene, three different modes of photocycloaddition with benzene derivatives can occur; the [2 + 2] or ortho, the [3 + 2] or meta, and the [4 + 2] or para photocycloaddition. This short review aims to demonstrate the synthetic power of these photocycloadditions.

The reversible photoisomerization of a derivative of spiropyran at the level of a single crystal by using zeolite L is demonstrated. The synthesized spiropyran exhibits rare negative photochromism when dissolved in a 1:1 mixture of H₂O and EtOH The spiropyran is functionalized predominantly at the channel entrances in the case of 4 μm long crystals

The acylation reaction occupies a central role in biochemistry and organic synthesis. On the one hand, it is by this very reaction that amino acids successively assemble to form peptides and proteins, and on the other hand it is a major synthetic method encompassing esterification, amidation, Friedel-Crafts reaction and many other processes routinely used both at the laboratory and the industrial...

This paper illustrates the research on the photochemistry of reactive intermediates that was (and still is) carried out in the author's research group on three typical examples: the photochemistry of arylcarbenes, arylnitrenes, and organic radical cations.

We report here conditions which allow the photoacylation of primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols with N-acetyl-5,7-dinitroindoline under exceptionally mild conditions, at wavelengths harmless to most functional groups, including otherwise photosensitive ones.
