Abstract

Photoredox catalysis: A variety of organic transformations mediated by visible-light-active photoredox catalysts have been conducted in a photochemical flow reactor. The reactor design is very simple and can be easily implemented in any laboratory (see picture). In addition, this reactor afforded a marked increase in the reaction rate compared to those observed in typical batch (round bottom flask) reactors.
