Abstract

Visible-light driven photoredox catalysis is rapidly developing into a versatile tool for organic synthesis that is especially attractive as a sustainable technology.[1] Excellent results have recently been reported by using organic dyes or redox cofactors, such as flavine,[2] however, the most widely utilized visible-light photoredox catalysts are metal complexes based on ruthenium or iridium.[3, 4] Although advantageous with respect to stability and ...
