Organic Photoredox Reactions in Two-Molecule Photoredox System
Chem Rec. 2023 Dec 5:e202300326. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300326. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTUsing our recent relevant results, this account shows the featured reactivities of two-molecule photoredox systems compared to one-molecule photoredox systems. The low efficiency of electron transfer processes, such as photoinduced and back-electron transfer, in the two-molecule photoredox system, furnishes unique products through different pathways. The facile replacement of photoredox catalysts with appropriate oxidation/reduction potentials in this system provides valuable insights into photoredox reactions.PMID:38050955 | DOI:10....
