Many important synthetic-oriented works have proposed excited organic radicals as photoactive species, yet mechanistic studies raised doubts about whether they can truly function photocatalysts. This skepticism originates from the formation of (photo)redox-active degradation products and picosecond decay electronically radicals, which is considered too short for diffusion-based photoinduced electron transfer reactions. From this perspective, we analyze synthetic transformations where been photocatalysts, comparing their theoretical maximum state potentials with required observed photocatalytic reactivity. We summarize structurally similar photocatalysts indicating different reaction pathways some catalytic systems, addressing cases radical exceed Additionally, perform a kinetic analysis to explain in on subpicosecond time scales. further rationalize potential anti-Kasha reactivity higher states femtosecond lifetimes, highlighting how future photocatalysis advancements could unlock new photochemical pathways.

Photocatalysis holds great promise for changing the way value-added molecules are currently prepared. However, many photocatalytic reactions suffer from quantum yields well below 10%, hampering transition lab-scale to large-scale or even industrial applications. Molecular dyads can be designed such that beneficial properties of inorganic and organic chromophores combined, resulting in milder reaction conditions improved reactions. We have developed a novel approach obtaining advantages molecular without time- resource-consuming synthesis these tailored photocatalysts. Simply by mixing cationic ruthenium complex with an anionic pyrene derivative water salt bichromophore is produced owing electrostatic interactions. The long-lived triplet state obtained static quantitative energy transfer preorganized complex. exploited this so-called Coulombic dyad catalysis similar reactivity higher photostability compared reference photosensitizers several photooxygenations.
