Energy Transfer to Ni-amine Complexes in Dual Catalytic, Light-driven C–N Cross-Coupling Reactions
Abstract: Dual catalytic light-driven cross coupling methodologies utilizing a Ni(II) salt with a photocatalyst (PC) have emerged as promising methodologies to forge aryl C–N bonds under mild conditions. The recent discovery that the PC can be omitted and the Ni(II) complex directly photoexcited suggests that the PC may perform energy transfer (EnT) to the Ni(II)…
