The singlet excited state of BODIPY promoted aerobic cross-dehydrogenative-coupling reactions under visible light

Abstract

In contrast to previous studies, we disclose for the first time that the singlet excited state (1PS*) of BODIPY rather than the triplet excited state (3PS*) can drive C–H bond activation to form C–C and C–P bonds smoothly, which offers new methods to promote organic transformation under visible light irradiation.
