Application of coumarin dyes for organic photoredox catalysis

Abstract

Here we report the application of readily prepared and available coumarin dyes for photoredox catalysis, which are able to mimic powerful reductant [Ir(III)] complexes. Coumarin derivatives 9 and 10 were employed as photoreductants in pinacol coupling and in other reactions, in the presence of Et3N as a sacrificial reducing agent. As the electronic, photophysical, and steric properties of coumarins could be varied, a wide applicability to several classes of photoredox reactions is predicted.
