RECENTES APLICAÇÕES DO ORGANOFOTOCATALISADOR 1,2,3,5-TETRAQUIS(CARBAZOL-9-IL)-4,6-DICIANOBENZENO EM TRANSFORMAÇÕES QUÍMICAS

Ruthenium and iridium polypyridine complexes are among the most employed photocatalysts described in literature. The broad applicability is due to the redox potentials and long half-life times of the excited state which these molecules presented. The pursuit for metal-free alternatives has been intensified in the last few years, therefore, many organic fluorophores were successfully employed as photocatalysts. Among them, 1,2,3,5-tetrakis(carbazol-9-yl)-4,6-dicianobenzene (4CzIPN) recently drawn attention of the community, and it’s been widely employed by distinguished research groups. Recent studies have shown that this catalyst do not only present similar properties to transition metal complexes, but also, its synthesis can be accomplished more easily and less expensive when compared with the metallic photocatalysts above mentioned. Therefore, 4CzIPN constitutes a metal-free alternative to replace transition metal complexes in conventional photochemical protocols. Moreover, it’s as a powerful ally in the development of new photochemical approaches. In this work, we aim to summarize recent applications of 4CzIPN as catalyst in the emerging field of redox photocatalysis.
