Photoredox Dual Catalysis for Decarboxylative Cross Coupling Reaction
In this literature discussion, students are asked to read an article describing a type of dual catalytic system in which the synergistic combination of photoredox catalysis and nickel catalysis provides a general method that would exploit naturally abundant, inexpensive organic molecules as coupling partners. This paper addresses several green chemistry principles and serves as a great literature example for teaching organometallic chemistry or green chemistry course.
