The concept of strain in organic compounds is as old modern chemistry and was initially introduced to justify the synthetic setbacks along synthesis small ring systems (pars construens strain). In last decades, chemists have developed an arsenal strain-release reactions destruens strain) which can generate─with significant driving force─rigid aliphatic that act three-dimensional alternatives (hetero)arenes. Photocatalysis added additional dimension processes by leveraging energy photons create chemical complexity under mild conditions. This perspective presents latest advancements photocatalysis─with emphases on mechanisms, catalytic cycles, current limitations─the unique architectures be produced, possible future directions.

Bicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes (BCHs) are becoming ever more important in drug design and development as bridged scaffolds that provide underexplored chemical space, but difficult to access. Here a silver-catalyzed dearomative [2π+2σ] cycloaddition strategy for the synthesis of indoline fused BCHs from N-unprotected indoles bicyclobutane precursors is described. The strain-release operates under mild conditions, tolerating wide range functional groups. It capable forming with up four contiguous quaternary carbon centers, achieving yields 99 %. In addition, scale-up experiment synthetic transformations cycloadducts further highlighted utility.

Highly strained 1,3-disubstituted bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes (BCPs) have been established as bioisosteres of para-disubstituted benzene because they impart valuable pharmacokinetic properties. Herein, we demonstrate an energy transfer-mediated protocol for acylboration [1.1.1]propellanes that allows the direct construction various carbonyl species, such carbamoyl-, carboxyl-, and acyl-, in tandem with synthetically versatile pinacol boronate (Bpin) groups onto BCP substructure under simple reaction conditions. Moreover, drug-like molecules containing boronates are further submitted to late-stage functionalization events. Several important transformations Bpin functional group boronates, including photoinduced cross-coupling reactions BCP-BF3K, derived from BCP-Bpin, were successfully performed showcase synthetic utility. Additionally, diverse elaborate mechanistic investigations provide insights, a plausible mechanism is proposed.

Abstract 1‐Aryl‐substituted bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes (BCPs) are an important class of BCP derivatives with widespread application in drug development. Most syntheses these materials require multiple chemical steps via electrophiles or nucleophiles derived from [1.1.1]propellane. Although one‐step, multicomponent radical cross‐coupling reactions could provide a more sustainable and rapid route to access diverse heteroarylated BCPs, current approaches limited tertiary alkyl radicals, leading decrease their practical value. In this study, conceptually different approach enabled by heteroarylation [1.1.1]propellane functionalized BCPs is described. Importantly, protocol compatible primary‐, secondary‐, aliphatic as well various fluoroalkyl sources, thus enabling library generation sought‐after for
