Application: [Ir(dtbbpy)(ppy)2]PF6 is an iridium-based photocatalyst which is used to drive various photochemical reactions such as:
•Coupling of N-arylamines and nitroalkanes via an oxidative aza-Henry reaction.
•Atom transfer radical addition (ATRA) of haloalkanes to alkenes and alkynes.
•Conversion of 2-bromoanilides to the corresponding 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles.
•Aryl-alkyl C-C reductive cross-coupling reactions.
