Photoredox sheds new light on nickel catalysis: from carbon–carbon to carbon–heteroatom bond formation

Abstract

This highlight describes the recent emergence of photoredox/nickel dual catalysis to generate carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bonds. To address the challenges in traditional nickel-catalyzed couplings, the application of photoredox catalysis facilitates transmetallation via single-electron transfer and generation of highly reactive nickel(III) intermediates to promote reductive elimination, thus providing new opportunities for nickel-catalysis.
