- Abstract:
- Photocatalytic organic synthesis needs photocatalysts to initiate the reactions and to control the reaction paths. Available photocatalytic systems rely on electron transfer or energy transfer between the photoexcited catalysts and the substrates. We explore a concept based on the photopromoted catalyst coupling to the substrate and the phototriggered catalyst regeneration by elimination from the catalytic cycle. A catalytic amount of elementary I2 is applied as both a visible light photocatalyst and a π Lewis acid, enabling the direct activation of alkyne C≡C bonds for electrophilic cyclizati
