TL;DR: The catalytic formation of cyclic organic carbonates (COCs) using carbon dioxide (CO2) as a renewable carbon feed stock is a highly vibrant area of research with an increasing amount of researchers focusing on this thematic investigation as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The catalytic formation of cyclic organic carbonates (COCs) using carbon dioxide (CO2) as a renewable carbon feed stock is a highly vibrant area of research with an increasing amount of researchers focusing on this thematic investigation. These organic carbonates are highly useful building blocks and nontoxic reagents and are most commonly derived from CO2 coupling reactions with oxirane and dialcohol precursors using homogeneous catalysis methodologies. The activation of suitable reaction partners using catalysis as a key technology is a requisite for efficient CO2 conversion as its high kinetic stability poses a barrier to access functional organic molecules with added value in both academic and industrial laboratories. Although this area of science has been flourishing for at least a decade, in the past 2–3 years, significant advancements have been made to address the general reactivity and selectivity issues that are associated with the formation of COCs. Here, we present a concise overview of these a...

TL;DR: This review aims at highlighting photochemical transformations as a tool for rapidly accessing structurally and stereochemically diverse scaffolds for complex polycyclic carbon skeletons with impressive efficiency, which are of high value in total synthesis.
Abstract: The use of photochemical transformations is a powerful strategy that allows for the formation of a high degree of molecular complexity from relatively simple building blocks in a single step. A central feature of all light-promoted transformations is the involvement of electronically excited states, generated upon absorption of photons. This produces transient reactive intermediates and significantly alters the reactivity of a chemical compound. The input of energy provided by light thus offers a means to produce strained and unique target compounds that cannot be assembled using thermal protocols. This review aims at highlighting photochemical transformations as a tool for rapidly accessing structurally and stereochemically diverse scaffolds. Synthetic designs based on photochemical transformations have the potential to afford complex polycyclic carbon skeletons with impressive efficiency, which are of high value in total synthesis.
