Photosensitized single electron transfer initiated N-debenzylation. A convenient and mild approach

A multiply-substituted buckminsterfullerene (C60) with an octahedral array of platinum atoms

Amine photoredox reactions: a photoinduced methylene shuttle initiated via two-electron oxidation of a tertiary amine by anthraquinone

“…For comparison, in [(C6H5)3P] 2Pt(i?2-Cio) the two distinct bond types averaged to 1.39 (±0.04) and 1.44 (±0.04) Á.3 The octahedral array of platinum atoms in this structure is readily understood. All evidence to date suggests that for metal complexation the bonds between two fused six-membered rings (7) Crystal data: C1j2Hli0P|2Pt6; dark red parallelepiped, =0.12 x 0.26 X 0.39 mm; triclinic, PI (No. 2); a = 14.841 (3) A, b = 15.419 (1) A, c = 30.882 (2) A, a = 95.25 (1)°, 8 = 98.74 (1)°, y = 112.20 (1)°(from 25 reflections); Z = 2; V= 6380.9 A3; T = -70 6C; FW = 3309.12; Dc = 1.722 g/cm3; final R = 0.043, 3?w = 0.033.…”

A comparative and mechanistic study on regioselective photooxidative demethylation of N‐heterocyclics using TiO2 and molecular oxygen

“…Model studies have indicated two different mechanisms for dealkylation which depend very much on the nature of the oxidants12, 13 and catalyst 14–16. Alkyl pyridines of commercial value, obtained as byproducts in pyridine base synthesis, are occasionally converted into useful pyridine bases by dealkylation.…”
