The light-driven cleavage of cyclobutane containing systems via [2 + 2] cycloreversion, such as di-coumarin, is an important yet poorly investigated photochemical reaction. Its applications can be found in smart crosslinking polymers or light-activated drug release. We report the increased cleavage efficiencies of the coumarins lactam analog quinolinone for single-photon as well as two-photon-absorption experiments. To investigate the structure-function relationship of the molecular substitution pattern and its influence on the photoactivity, a coumarin-quinolinone cross-dimer was synthesized and investigated towards its cleavage efficiencies in single-photon as well as two-photon photocleavage. The cross-dimer shows a lower cleavage efficiency than both homo-dimers. The presented results are of interest, e.g., for applications utilizing highly efficient cleavage reactions in symmetric or asymmetric molecular frameworks.

Chlorination with chlorine is straightforward, highly reactive, and versatile, but it has significant limitations. In this Letter, we introduce a protocol that could combine the efficiency of electrochemical transformation and the high reactivity of chlorine. By utilizing Cl3CCN as the chloride source, donating up to all three chloride atom, the reaction could generate and consume the chlorine in situ on demand to achieve the chlorination of aromatic compounds and electrodeficient alkenes.

An unprecedented N-demethylation of N-methyl amides has been developed by use of N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide as an oxidant with the aid of a copper catalyst. The conversion of amides to carbinolamines involves successive single-electron transfer, hydrogen-atom transfer, and hydrolysis, and is accompanied by formation of N-(phenylsulfonyl)benzenesulfonamide. Carbinolamines spontaneously decompose to N-demethylated amides and formaldehyde, because of their inherent instability.
