Photoredox catalysis (PRC) is a cutting-edge frontier for single electron-transfer (SET)
reactions, enabling the generation of reactive intermediates for both oxidative and reductive …

Alkyl diacyl peroxides were demonstrated to be efficient alkylating reagents for the visible-
light-induced 4CzIPN-catalyzed direct C–H alkylation of N-heteroaromatics. With this metal …

Photoredox catalysis (PRC) has gained enormous and wide-ranging interest in recent years
but has also been subject to significant mechanistic uncertainty, even controversy. To …

We report a visible-light photoredox-catalyzed method that enables nucleophilic amination
of primary and secondary benzylic C (sp3)–H bonds. A novel amidyl radical precursor and …

By combining the energy input from two red photons, chemical reactions that would normally
require blue or ultraviolet irradiation become accessible. Key advantages of this biphotonic …

Electron‐deficient acridones and in situ generated acridinium salts are reported as potent,
closed‐shell photooxidants that undergo surprising mechanisms. When bridging acyclic …

Sensitized triplet–triplet annihilation upconversion is a promising strategy to use visible light
for chemical reactions requiring the energy input of UV photons. This strategy avoids unsafe …

Anions are the reduced form of precatalysts that are a special type of photoredox catalyst,
unlike traditional iridium or ruthenium complexes. Among them, radical anions often have …

Photocatalysts with extremely strong reducing potential are often thought to operate through
a consecutive photoinduced electron transfer (ConPeT) mechanism, where a first photon …

Due to the well known reactivity of C (O)–N functionalities towards canonical C1-
homologating agents (eg carbenoids, diazomethane, ylides), resulting in the extrusion of the …
