title: Visible-light-enhanced Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction by cooperative photocatalysis with an Ru-Pd bimetallic complex.
abstract: A photo-assisted Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction has been realized by a molecule Pd(II) complex containing a Ru(II)-polypyridyl derivative as a visible light photosensitizing unit, where an electron transfer from excited Ru species to Pd forms an active electron rich Pd(0) and facilitates the oxidative addition step with aryl halides.
