Abstract This study presents a Ni‐photoredox method for indole N ‐arylation, broadening the range of substrates to include indoles with unprotected C3‐positions and base‐sensitive groups. Through detailed mechanistic inquiries, Ni(I/III) mechanism was uncovered, distinct from those commonly proposed Ni‐catalyzed amine, thiol, alcohol arylation, as well Ni(0/II/III) cycle identified amide arylation under almost identical conditions. The key finding is formation Ni(I) intermediate bearing nucleophile ligand prior oxidative addition, which rare carbon‐heteroatom coupling has profound impact on reaction kinetics scope. pre‐coordination renders more electron‐rich intermediate, broadens scope by enabling fast reactivity even challenging aryl bromide substrates. Thus, this work highlights often‐overlooked influence X‐type ligands Ni addition rates illustrates yet another divergence in C‐heteroatom couplings.

Herein, we investigate the photoactivity of four NiII tolyl chloride complexes supported by either new bidentate [2.2]pyridinophane (HN2) ligand or traditional 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-dipyridyl (tBubpy) ligand. Despite a change in framework, observe similar quantum yields for photodegradation all complexes, while noting changes their affinity radical side reactivity and ability to stabilize photogenerated mononuclear NiI species. Furthermore, changing from an ortho-tolyl para-tolyl group affects geometry makes Ni center more susceptible reactivity. By leveraging newly developed HN2 ligand, that hinders axial interactions with center, limit Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) calculations predict have accessible MLCTs excite electron Ni-aryl bonding orbital into antibonding orbital, initiating photolysis. decreasing this energy gap stabilizing tetrahedral triplet excited state, increase photoexcitation. Importantly, characterize species using X-band EPR spectroscopy show HN2-supported do not undergo deleterious dimerization tetramerization observed (bpy)NiICl Overall, study provides valuable insight how steric environment around its demonstrates such is unique bipyridyl-supported compounds.

The tunability and spatial precision of paramagnetic molecules makes them attractive for quantum sensing. However, usual microwave-based detection methods have poor temporal resolution, optical compatible with room-temperature solutions remained elusive. In this study, we utilized pump-probe polarization spectroscopy to initialize track electron spin coherence in a molecule. Designed efficiently couple spins light, aqueous potassium hexachloroiridate(IV) enabled few-picosecond free-induction decay at room temperature micromolar concentrations. Viscosity was found strongly vary decoherence lifetimes. This approach has improved the experimental time resolution by up five orders magnitude, making it possible observe molecular system that only exhibits below 25 kelvin traditional techniques.

NiII 2,2'-bipyridine complexes are commonly invoked intermediates in metallaphotoredox cross-coupling reactions. Despite their ubiquity, design principles targeting improved catalytic performance remain underdetermined. A series of Ni(Rbpy)(R'Ar)Cl (R = MeOOC, t-Bu, R' CH3, CF3) were proposed to have multiconfigurational electronic structures on the basis multiconfigurational/multireference calculations, with significant mixing Ni → bpy metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) configurations into ground-state wave function. Here, K-edge and L2,3-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopies provide experimental support for highly covalent these complexes. The pre-edge intensity spectrum reflects Ni-aryl bonding. L3-edge spectral shape is dependent ligand functionalization, a feature reflecting MLCT character assigned using prior ab initio new semiempirical calculations. results suggest push/pull effects aryl/bpy ligands moderate changes electron density during multiredox reaction cycle.

In synergistic catalysis, multiple catalysts or active sites work together to produce ‘the whole is greater than the sum of its parts’ effect. However, trilemma flexibility-stability-cost lies ahead multiunit heterogeneous catalyst. As complexity increases, catalytic efficiency tends be restricted. Here, we report a general method tailor modular metallaphotoredox catalysts. The dyes and molecular could flexibly connect with inexpensive carbon nitride via stable covalent bonds, like LEGO® games. Tunable visible-light absorption, high electron-hole separation steerable construction have been realized simultaneously, meanwhile electron transfer mechanism has clarified operando techniques. By precisely regulating coordination field single-atom sites, four different metallaphotoredox-enabled C-C cross-couplings compatible good cyclic stability (up 150 hours) anti-interference ability.
