Visible light photocatalysis has emerged as a revolutionary approach in this domain, providing a sustainable and efficient pathway for β‐lactam construction. In this review, we meticulously discuss the recent developments in the synthesis of photocatalysed β‐lactam frameworks.A key focus is the Staudinger reaction, traditionally a cornerstone in β‐lactam synthesis, and its adaptation to visible light photocatalysis. We explore the mechanistic intricacies of the Staudinger reaction under photochemical conditions, along with other pivotal cyclization strategies enabled by visible light. By illuminating the novel photocatalytic routes to β‐lactams, this review provides a thorough understanding of the state‐of‐the‐art techniques and sets the stage for future innovations in the green synthesis of these critical compounds.","PeriodicalId":118,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis","volume":"206 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142384390","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we present a novel approach to functionalize C60 through a cascade process encompassing an unprecedented Rh-catalyzed cycloisomerization of 1,6-allenynes to in situ generate a vinylallene that is followed by a Diels-Alder reaction with pristine fullerene, resulting in the formation of 6,6-fused bicyclic fullerene derivatives. The mechanism governing this process was elucidated by DFT calculations and confirmed by deuterium labelling and control experiments, demonstrating the critical role of traces of water in the reaction medium to mediate the observed reactivity.","PeriodicalId":118,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Synthesis & Catalysis","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142379362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
