| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to investigate various molecular transformations by visible light, we focused on synthesizing photoactive complexes composed of visible-light sensitizer and a reactive metal center linked by a bridging ligand. We focused on applying the photocatalysis to cross-coupling reactions and polymerization. The photoactive catalysts such as Ru(II)-polypyridyl-Pd monoacetato and -Pd monomethyl complexes were developed and applyed to cross-coupling reaction of cinnamyl alcohol with arenes and styrene polymerization, respectively. We studied the plausible reaction mechanism together with the basic photochemical properties of the photosensitizers and the photocatalysts.
