The use of organic photocatalysts has revolutionized the field of photoredox catalysis, expanding reactivities beyond traditional transition-metal photocatalysts. Recent developments in using acridinium ions and cyanoarene derivatives in organic synthesis have been reported, focusing on the activation of inert chemical bonds and late-stage functionalization of biorelevant molecules with discussions on their mechanistic aspects.
The use of organic photocatalysts has revolutionized the field of photoredox catalysis, as it allows access to reactivities that were traditionally restricted to transition-metal photocatalysts. This Minireview reports recent developments in the use of acridinium ions and cyanoarene derivatives in organic synthesis. The activation of inert chemical bonds as well as the late-stage functionalization of biorelevant molecules are discussed, with a special focus on their mechanistic aspects.
