Abstract
A series of [2+2]-photocycloadditions of 1,4-naphthoquinone with various alkenes and diphenylacetylene were investigated under batch and continuous-flow conditions. Acetone-sensitization furnished the corresponding photoadducts in good to excellent yields and purities. Compared to batch operations that demanded exhaustive irradiation times of 10-13 h, the flow process generally gave superior conversions and subsequently yields with a residence time of just 60 min. The structures of several photoaddition products were further determined by crystal structure analysis.

Abstract
A monolithic catalyst was fabricated through an emulsion-templating method, postpolymerization modification, and in situ loading of active constituents. To achieve a high specific surface area, divinylbenzene (DVB) was solely employed as the monomer, while the porous structure was adjusted with the porogen content and the types of initiators. Then, anchor points were introduced on the pore wall through nitration and amination of the polymeric scaffold. Using a controlled "silver mirror reaction", monolithic catalysts were obtained after loading of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), which was verified from morphological and crystallinity characteristics. The catalytic performance of the resultant monolithic catalyst was determined with the model reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). In static catalysis, the monolithic catalyst was proved to have a reactively high apparent rate constant and a good reusability. Furthermore, a flow reactor was fabricated with the monolithic catalyst, showing a high efficiency and long-term durability for the continuous reduction of 4-NP. This work broadened the adjustment of porous structures and the subsequent application for emulsion-templated monoliths.

Abstract
In recent years, photochemistry has increasingly emerged as an enabling methodology in both academia and the pharmaceutical industry. Long photolysis times and the gradual reduction of light penetration remained for many years unsolved issues for photochemical rearrangements, triggering the generation of highly reactive species in an uncontrolled fashion and causing the formation of multiple side products. The emergence of continuous-flow chemistry significantly helped to overcome these issues, thus prompting the implementation of photo-flow-based approaches for the generation of pharmaceutically relevant substructures. This Technology Note highlights the benefits of flow chemistry for photochemical rearrangements, including Wolff, Favorskii, Beckmann, Fries, and Claisen rearrangements. We showcase recent advances for photo-rearrangements in continuous flow applied to the synthesis of privileged scaffolds and active pharmaceutical ingredients.
