This Review describes singlet oxygen (1O2) in the organic synthesis of targets on possible
1O2 biosynthetic routes. The visible-light sensitized production of 1O2 is not only useful for …

We report the construction and use of a vortex reactor which uses a rapidly rotating cylinder
to generate Taylor vortices for continuous flow thermal and photochemical reactions. The …

Artemisinin is an important antimalarial drug, but, at present, the environmental and
economic costs of its semi-synthetic production are relatively high. Most of these costs lie in …

The purpose of this article is to give a taste of just how powerful the union between furans
and photochemically-generated singlet oxygen is proving to be as a synthetic tool and to …

We present a comprehensive review of the advent and impact of continuous flow chemistry
with regard to the synthesis of natural products and drugs, important pharmaceutical …

Photochemical and photocatalytic reactions are a powerful emerging tool in the green
synthesis of organic molecules. In contrast to thermochemical reactions, they promise …

Visible light photooxidation of naphthols to produce naphthoquinones, such as the natural
product juglone, has been known for decades and has been widely utilized to benchmark …

A novel, multimicrocapillary flow reactor (MμCFR) was constructed and applied to a series of
sensitized photoadditions involving 2 (5 H)-furanones. The reactor allowed for rapid and …

Oxygenation of α-pinene using photochemically generated singlet oxygen (1O2) was
studied in detail in several continuous flow photochemical reactors. Ferrioxalate actinometry …

Photochemical transformations are mobilized by traceless photons of narrow or broad
visible light wavelength and have been proven as a green and sustainable synthesis route …
