Abstract:With the discovery of late transition metal platforms that support clean photoreductive halogen eliminations, we now describe an indazol-3-ylidene gold trichloride complex ([7] + ) decorated at the 4-position by a xanthylium unit. This orange complex features a low energy band in the visible part of the spectrum, assigned to the charge transfer excitation of the indazol-3ylidene/xanthylium donor/acceptor dyad. Green-light irradiation of this complex in the presence of a chlorine trap elicits the clean photoeli… Show more
