Description:
The project focuses on targeted modifications and application of dicyanopyrazine (DPZ) push-pull derivatives in photoredox catalysis. Recently, DPZ has been discovered in our working group and it turned out to be suitable catalyst of visible light-induced organic transformations. Therefore, we propose in this project its targeted structural tuning in order to enhance its stability and enabling it?s anchoring on a suitable carrier. The original and newly developed DPZ derivatives will be utilized in a variety of photoredox transformations including cyclization, cross-coupling, deuteration, reduction, selenylation, polymerization etc. The project realization is divided in three working packages that are logically interconnected. The main motivation of the project is to present DPZ as efficient and versatile tool for the current organic synthesis, which may, besides the conventional approaches towards creating new bonds, utilize visible light-initiated reactions allowed by DPZ.
