Trifluoromethylated thermally activated delayed fluorescence molecule as a versatile photocatalyst for electron-transfer- and energy-transfer-driven reactions

Abstract

In this study, we propose that the trifluoromethylated thermally activated delayed fluorescent molecule 4[Cz(CF₃)₂]IPN is a versatile organic photocatalyst that can be used for electron-transfer-driven reactions requiring a photocatalyst with high oxidizing power and energy-transfer-driven reactions that require an Ir photocatalyst. 4[Cz(CF₃)₂]IPN was used in radical reactions <i>via</i> electron transfer and dearomative cycloaddition reactions <i>via</i> energy transfer.
