Abstract
Eosin Y catalyzed syntheses of bioactive tetraketones using cyclic-1,3-diketones and tertiary amines as alkyl synthons under 18 W blue LED have been accomplished. The condition is very mild that uses air as a green oxidant and avoids previously used harsh conditions like high temperature. Diverse arrays of tertiary amines first undergo reductive quenching of excited photocatalysts to form iminium ions that upon subsequent attack by cyclic-1,3-diketones give rise to tetraketones. This method is demonstrated with 31 examples with yields up to 76%. The feasibility of this reaction in the presence of eosin Y catalyst under a solar condition is also demonstrated with significant examples.

Abstract
Direct C-H methylation is a highly valuable approach for introducing methyl groups into organic molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical chemistry. Among the various methodologies available, photo-induced methylation stands out as an exceptional choice due to its mild reaction conditions, energy efficiency, and compatibility with functional groups. This article offers a comprehensive review of photochemical strategies employed for the direct and selective methylation of C(sp3 )-H, C(sp2 )-H, and C(sp)-H bonds in various organic molecules. The discussed methodologies encompass transition-metal-based photocatalysis, organophotocatalysis, as well as other metal-free approaches, including electron donor-acceptor (EDA)-enabled transformations. Importantly, a wide range of easily accessible agents such as tert-butyl peroxide, methanol, DMSO, methyl tert-butyl ether, TsOMe, N-(acetoxy)phthalimide, acetic acid, methyl halides, and even methane can serve as effective methylating reagents for modifying diverse targets. These advancements in photochemical C-H methylation are anticipated to drive further progress in the fields of organic synthesis, photocatalysis, and pharmaceutical development, opening up exciting avenues for creating novel organic molecules and discovering new drug compounds.

Abstract
The unprecedented photochemical late-stage defluorinative gem-difluoroallylation of aryl sulfonium salts, which are formed site-selectively by direct C(sp2)─H functionalization, is herein disclosed. This method is distinguished by its mild reaction conditions, wide scope, and excellent site-selectivity. As showcase examples, a Flurbiprofen and Pyriproxyfen derivatives could be late stage C(sp2)─H gem-difluoroallylated with high yields. Experimental and computational investigations were conducted.

Abstract
In 1949, Reuben G. Jones disclosed an original synthesis of 2-hydroxypyrazines involving a double condensation between 1,2-dicarbonyls and α-aminoamides upon treatment with sodium hydroxide at low temperature. This discovery turned out to be of importance as even today there are no simple alternatives to this preparation. Across the years, it was employed to prepare 2-hydroxypyrazines but some of its limits, notably regioselectivity issues when starting from α-ketoaldehydes, certainly hampered a full-fledged generation of pyrazine-containing new chemical entities of potential interest in medicinal chemistry. The present text describes some insights and improvements, such as the unprecedented use of tetraalkylammonium hydroxide, in the reaction parameters affecting the regioselectivity and yield when starting from phenylglyoxal and two α-aminoamides. We also suggest a mechanism explaining the counterintuitive occurrence of 3,5-substituted-2-hydroxypyrazine as the major reaction product.

Abstract
An efficient, transition metal-free visible-light-driven continuous-flow C-3-alkylation of quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones has been demonstrated by employing Katritzky salts as alkylating agents in the presence of eosin-y as a photoredox catalyst and DIPEA as a base at room temperature. The present protocol was accomplished by utilizing abundant and inexpensive alkyl amine (both primary and secondary alkyl) and as well as this a few amino acid feedstocks were converted into their corresponding redox-active pyridinium salts and subsequently into alkyl radicals. A wide variety of C-3-alkylated quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones were synthesized in moderate to high yields. Further this environmentally benign protocol is carried out in a PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy alkane) capillary based micro reactor under blue LED irradiation, enabling excellent yields (72% to 91%) and shorter reaction times (0.81 min) as compared to a batch system (16 h).

Abstract
A visible light-promoted radical relay of N-allylbromodifluoroacetamide with quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones was developed in which 5-exo-trig cyclization and C-C bond formation were involved. This protocol was performed under mild conditions to facilely offer a variety of hybrid molecules bearing both quinoxalin-2(1H)-one and 3,3-difluoro-γ-lactam motifs. These prepared novel skeletons would expand the accessible chemical space for structurally complex heterocycles with potential biological activities.

Abstract
A visible-light-induced photoredox Minisci alkylation reaction of N-heteroarenes with ethyl acetate has been reported. The low-toxic ethyl acetate was used for the first time as an alkylation reagent. Hence, 4-quinazolinones, quinolines and pyridines reacted smoothly in the current reaction system. Mechanistic studies indicate that LiBr plays a key role to dramatically improve the efficiency of the reaction by the mediation of hydrogen atom transfer.

Abstract
A direct C-H functionalization approach to access C3-alkylated 2-pyridone derivatives is reported. This study utilizes N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) esters of various carboxylic acids as sources of alkyl radicals by reductive cleavage under photocatalytic reaction conditions. The carbon-carbon bond formation occurred site-selectively at C3 of 2-pyridone to give the desired products in moderate to good yields. This method enables a faster access to C3-alkylated pyridone compounds which can be applied to the synthesis of small molecule drugs.
