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 …

The energy of visible photons and the accessible redox potentials of common photocatalysts
set thermodynamic limits to photochemical reactions that can be driven by traditional visible …

Transition metal complexes with photoactive charge‐transfer excited states are pervasive
throughout the literature. In particular,[Ru (bpy) 3] 2+(bpy= 2, 2′‐bipyridine), with its metal …

Ruthenium complexes with polypyridine ligands are very popular choices for applications in
photophysics and photochemistry, for example, in lighting, sensing, solar cells, and …

The direct reduction of arenes and heteroarenes by visible‐light irradiation remains
challenging, as the energy of a single photon is not sufficient for breaking aromatic …

The combination of π‐donating amido with π‐accepting pyridine coordination units in a
tridentate chelate ligand causes a strong nephelauxetic effect in a homoleptic CrIII complex …

The many applications of photon upconversion—conversion of low‐energy photons into
high‐energy photons—raises the question of the possibility of “electron upconversion”. In …

Herein, we present a stable water‐soluble cobalt complex supported by a dianionic 2, 2′‐
([2, 2′‐bipyridine]‐6, 6′‐diyl) bis (propan‐2‐ol) ligand scaffold, which is a rare example of …

The molecular ruby analogue [Cr (ddpd) 2] 3+(ddpd= N, N'‐dimethyl‐N, N'‐dipyridine‐2‐
ylpyridine‐2, 6‐diamine) exhibits near infrared (NIR) emission with a high …

We report on the largest open‐shell graphenic bilayer and also the first example of triply
negatively charged radical π‐dimer. Upon three‐electron reduction, bilayer nanographene …
