Mechanistic investigation of a visible light mediated dehalogenation/cyclisation reaction using iron(iii), iridium(iii) and ruthenium(ii) photosensitizers

The mechanism of a visible light-driven dehalogenation/cyclization reaction was investigated using ruthenium(II), iridium(III) and iron(III) photosensitizers by means of steady-state photoluminescence, time-resolved infrared spectroscopy, and nanosecond/femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy.
