Sensitized triplet–triplet annihilation upconversion is a promising strategy to use visible light for chemical reactions requiring the energy input of UV photons. This avoids unsafe ultraviolet sources and can mitigate photo-damage provide access reactions, which filter effects hamper direct excitation. Here, we report new approach make blue-to-UV more amenable photochemical applications. The tethering naphthalene unit cyclometalated iridium(III) complex yields bichromophore with high triplet (2.68 eV) naphthalene-based reservoir featuring lifetime 72.1 μs, roughly factor 20 longer than photoactive excited state parent complex. In combination three different annihilators, consistently lower thresholds crossover from quadratic into linear excitation power dependence regime were observed compared system composed 2,5-diphenyloxazole annihilator sufficiently robust under long-term blue irradiation continuously high-energy singlet-excited that drive normally light. Both photoredox transfer catalyses feasible using this concept, including reductive N–O bond cleavage Weinreb amides, C–C coupling reaction based on aryl debromination, two Paternò–Büchi [2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions. Our work seems relevant in context developing strategies driving energetically demanding photochemistry low-energy

First‐Row d⁶ Metal Complex Enables Photon Upconversion and Initiates Blue Light‐Dependent Polymerization with Red Light

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 62(43)

Опубликована: Сен. 8, 2023

Photosensitizers for sensitized triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion (sTTA-UC) often rely on precious heavy metals, whereas coordination complexes based abundant first-row transition metals are less common. This is mainly because long-lived triplet excited states more difficult to obtain 3d particularly when the d-subshell only partially filled. Here, we report first example of sTTA-UC a 3d6 metal photosensitizer yielding an performance competitive with metal-based analogues. Using newly developed Cr0 featuring equally good photophysical properties as OsII benchmark complex in combination acetylene-decorated anthracene annihilator, red-to-blue achievable. The efficiency under optimized conditions 1.8 %, and excitation power density threshold reach strong limit 5.9 W/cm2 . These factors, along high photostability, permit initiation acrylamide polymerization by red light, radiative energy transfer between delayed annihilator fluorescence blue light absorbing photo-initiator. Our study provides proof-of-concept photon elusive analogues widely employed d6 photosensitizers, their application photochemical reactions triggered wavelengths close near-infrared.

Red-Shifting Blue Light Photoredox Catalysis for Organic Synthesis: A Graphical Review

SynOpen, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 07(01), С. 76 - 87

Опубликована: Фев. 1, 2023

Abstract Photoredox catalysis has revolutionized synthetic chemistry in recent decades. However, the field traditionally used high-energy blue/ultraviolet light to activate chromophores. High-energy irradiation is associated with several drawbacks (e.g., activation of sensitive functional groups, undesired metal-ligand homolysis, background molecules, and poor penetration), which led researchers develop alternative systems lower energy deep red (DR) or near-infrared (NIR) light. This graphical review provides a concise overview photophysical principles relevant photoredox catalysis. Several applications that benefit from low-energy irradiation, such as large-scale batch reactions, photodynamic therapy, biological labeling, multi-photon excitation are reviewed.

Π‐Radical Photosensitizer for Highly Efficient and Stable Near‐Infrared Photon Upconversion

Advanced Optical Materials, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 12(6)

Опубликована: Сен. 10, 2023

Abstract Near‐infrared (NIR)‐to‐blue triplet–triplet annihilation upconversion (TTA‐UC) exhibits substantial potential for diverse applications, encompassing photovoltaics, photocatalysis, bioimaging, and photodynamic therapy. A major challenge in this field, however, is attaining high quantum yields ( Φ UC ) without using transition metals as NIR photosensitizers. This research presents an innovative organic π‐radical photosensitizer (TTM‐TPA) featuring extended absorption the region (≈760 nm) that capable of generating pronounced anti‐Stokes emissions when coupled with suitable triplet acceptors. By eliminating energy loss associated intersystem crossing promoting rapid doublet–triplet transfer processes, binary TTM‐TPA/perylene system achieves values up to 6.8% shift 0.93 eV. Notably, TTA‐UC demonstrates exceptional stability subjected intense 733 nm laser irradiation (4 W cm −2 ), maintaining nearly constant intensity after 4 h. These findings underscore considerable doublet‐sensitized a broad array practical applications.
