Abstract

The Cu-II complex [Cu-II(dmp)(2)Cl]Cl (dmp = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) is evaluated as an oxidation stable precursor for visible-light-mediated Cu-I-photoredox catalysis, being efficient and considerable more cost-effective compared to previously established copper(I) photocatalysts. Its performance and efficiency are demonstrated within a broad scope of atom transfer radical addition (ATRA) reactions, allowing the 1,2-difunctionalization of alkenes, as well as for decarboxylative coupling and an Appel reaction. Moreover, the utility of the complex is shown by various gram-scale functionalizations of styrene, thus suggesting [Cu-II(dmp)(2)Cl]Cl to be a low-priced alternative precatalyst for processes run on scale. Furthermore, this study provides UV/Vis evidence on the mechanism for the visible light activation of Cu-II complexes.
