Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 63(15)

Опубликована: Янв. 19, 2024

Abstract The self‐assembled metal‐organic cages (MOCs) have been evolved as a paradigm of enzyme‐mimic catalysts since they are able to synergize multifunctionalities inherent in metal and organic components constitute microenvironments characteristic enzymatic spatial confinement versatile host–guest interactions, thus facilitating unconventional transformations via unique driving‐forces such weak noncovalent binding electron/energy transfer. Recently, MOC‐based photoreactors emerged burgeoning platform supramolecular photocatalysis, displaying anomalous reactivities selectivities distinct from bulk solution. This perspective recaps two decades journey the photoinduced radical reactions by using photoactive (PMOCs) artificial reactors, outlining how cage‐confined photocatalysis was stoichiometric photoreactions photocatalytic turnover, high‐energy UV‐irradiation sustainable visible‐light photoactivation, simple multi‐level chemo‐ stereoselectivities.
