Patra J, Nair A, Volla C
Chem Sci . 2024 May; 15(19):7136-7143. PMID: 38756813
Bismuth, in spite of its low cost and low toxicity, has found limited application in organic synthesis. Although the photoactivity of Bi(iii) salts has been well studied, this has not...

Khan S, Chatterjee A, Nair A, Volla C
Org Biomol Chem . 2024 Apr; 22(19):3887-3892. PMID: 38683654
We hereby report a highly diastereoselective synthesis of chalcogenated azaspirotricycles a one-pot Ugi/spirocyclization/aza-Michael addition sequence. The reaction proceeds a key visible light mediated spirocyclization step under mild, metal-free and energy...

Halder I, Nair A, Volla C
Chem Commun (Camb) . 2023 Apr; 59(39):5862-5865. PMID: 37092312
We hereby report a visible light mediated alkyl sulfonylative cascade cyclization of alkynyl and dialkynyl cyclohexadienones SO insertion. The protocol utilizes alkyl Hantzsch esters as the alkyl source and DABSO...
