Nonmetallised CdS-catalysed photoreduction of aromatic ketones to alcohols and/or pinacols

Abstract

In acetonitrile containing triethylamine as a sacrificial electron donor, non-metallized CdS shows photocatalytic activity for reduction of benzophenone derivatives whose reduction potentials are larger than –1.90 V vs. standard calomel electrode (SCE), giving alcohols and/or pinacols under visible light irradiation.
