Abstract

The dye rhodamine 6G can act as a photocatalyst through photoinduced electron transfer. After electronic excitation with green light, rhodamine 6G takes an electron from an electron donor, such as N,N-diisopropylethylamine, and forms the rhodamine 6G radical. This radical has a reduction potential of around -0.90 V and can split phenyl iodide into iodine anions and phenyl radicals. Recently, it ...
