Abstract

Visible light irradiation is found to enhance the reducing ability of samarium diiodide (SmI2) dramatically. Organic halides (RCl, RBr, RI) and chalcogenides (RSPh, RSePh, RTePh) are smoothly reduced to the corresponding hydrocarbons by using this SmI2–hv system. The photoactivation can be also applied to ytterbium diiodide (YbI2) successfully. When the reduction of alkyl chlorides (RCl) by using the SmI2–hv system is conducted under the ...
