Abstract
The work described in this dissertation focuses on the development of a new class of organic photocatalysts and the application of oxidative quenching photocatalysts in dual nickel/photoredox-catalysis. The design of new organic photocatalysts is crucial for eliminating the need to use rare/expensive ruthenium and iridium that have dominated the field of photoredox catalysis. Additionally, the majority of the catalysts describe here-in operate through an oxidative quenching mechanism that remains underexplored in the field of dual nickel/photoredox catalysis. The first detailed mechanistic study on oxidative quenching in this field is reported and applied in a broad range of couplings.
