In recent years, visible light-induced transition metal catalysis has emerged as a new
paradigm in organic photocatalysis, which has led to the discovery of unprecedented …

Redox processes are at the heart of synthetic methods that rely on either electrochemistry or
photoredox catalysis, but how do electrochemistry and photoredox catalysis compare? Both …

Excited (triplet) states offer a myriad of attractive synthetic pathways, including
cycloadditions, selective homolytic bond cleavages and strain-release chemistry …

Many coordination complexes and organometallic compounds with the 4d6 and 5d6
valence electron configurations have outstanding photophysical and photochemical …

Despite the rich photochemistry of 3d‐metal complexes, the utilization of excited‐state
reactivity of these compounds in organic synthesis has been historically overlooked. The …

Precious and rare elements have traditionally dominated inorganic photophysics and
photochemistry, but now we are witnessing a paradigm shift toward cheaper and more …

The mainstream applications of visible‐light photoredox catalysis predominately involve
outer‐sphere single‐electron transfer (SET) or energy transfer (EnT) processes of precious …

Polypyridine-ligated nickel complexes are widely used as privileged catalysts in a variety of
cross-coupling reactions. The rapid adoption of these complexes is tentatively attributed to …

The development of transition metal (TM) catalysis for organic synthesis under visible light
without recourse to typical photoredox catalysts has become a rapidly growing area of …
