We present here a review of the photochemical and electrochemical applications multi-site proton-coupled electron transfer (MS-PCET) in organic synthesis. MS-PCETs are redox mechanisms which both an proton exchanged together, often concerted elementary step. As such, MS-PCET can function as non-classical mechanism for homolytic bond activation, providing opportunities to generate synthetically useful free radical intermediates directly from wide variety common functional groups. introduction practitioner’s guide reaction design, with emphasis on unique energetic selectivity features that characteristic this class. then chapters oxidative N–H, O–H, S–H, C–H homolysis methods, generation corresponding neutral species.

Non-innocent Radical Ion Intermediates in Photoredox Catalysis: Parallel Reduction Modes Enable Coupling of Diverse Aryl Chlorides

Journal of the American Chemical Society, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 143(29), P. 10882 - 10889

Published: July 13, 2021

We describe a photocatalytic system that elicits potent photoreductant activity from conventional photocatalysts by leveraging radical anion intermediates generated in situ. The combination of an isophthalonitrile photocatalyst and sodium formate promotes diverse aryl coupling reactions abundant but difficult to reduce chloride substrates. Mechanistic studies reveal two parallel pathways for substrate reduction both enabled key terminal reductant byproduct, carbon dioxide anion.

Formation and degradation of strongly reducing cyanoarene-based radical anions towards efficient radical anion-mediated photoredox catalysis

Nature Communications, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 14(1)

Published: Jan. 6, 2023

Cyanoarene-based photocatalysts (PCs) have attracted significant interest owing to their superior catalytic performance for radical anion mediated photoredox catalysis. However, the factors affecting formation and degradation of cyanoarene-based PC (PC•‒) are still insufficiently understood. Herein, we therefore investigate PC•‒ under widely-used photoredox-mediated reaction conditions. By screening various PCs, elucidate strategies efficiently generate with adequate excited-state reduction potentials (Ered*) via supra-efficient generation long-lived triplet excited states (T1). To thoroughly behavior in actual reactions, a reductive dehalogenation is carried out as model identified dominant photodegradation pathways PC•‒. Dehalogenation coexistent depending on rate electron transfer (ET) substrate strongly depends electronic steric properties PCs. Based understanding both PC•‒, demonstrate that efficient highly reducing allows catalyzed aryl/alkyl halides at loading low 0.001 mol% high oxygen tolerance. The present work provides new insights into reactions reactions.
