title: The singlet excited state of BODIPY promoted aerobic cross-dehydrogenative-coupling reactions under visible light.
abstract: In contrast to previous studies, we disclose for the first time that the singlet excited state ((1)PS*) of BODIPY rather than the triplet excited state ((3)PS*) can drive C-H bond activation to form C-C and C-P bonds smoothly, which offers new methods to promote organic transformation under visible light irradiation.
