An Ir(III) Complex Photosensitizer With Strong Visible Light Absorption for Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction

A cyclometalated iridium(III) complex having 2-(pyren-1-yl)-4-methylquinoline ligands [Ir(pyr)] has a strong absorption band in the visible region (ε444nm = 67,000 M−1 cm−1) but does not act as a photosensitizer for photochemical reduction reactions in the presence of triethylamine as an electron do...
