Metallosalen are privileged complexes that have found important applications in catalysis. In addition, their luminescent properties have also been studied and used for sensing and biological applications. Salen metal complexes can be efficient photosensitizers, but they can also participate to electron transfer processes. Indeed, we have found that commercially available [Al(Salen)Cl] is an efficient photoredox catalyst for the synergistic stereoselective reaction of alkyl aldehydes with different bromo ketones and malonates to give the corresponding enantioenriched α‐alkylated derivatives. The reaction was performed in the presence of a MacMillan catalyst. [Al(Salen)Cl] is able to replace ruthenium complexes, showing that also aluminum complexes can be used in promoting photoredox catalytic reactions.
Four 1,5-Naphthyridin-4-ol containing platinum complexes, AtFOND, AtFNND, PBSOND, and PBSNND, have been synthesized and characterized for photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) properties. In addition to support the aggregate/excimer formation of...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
