Palladium (Pd)-based Photocatalysts for Suzuki Coupling Reactions: AnOverview

Abstract: Extensive research has been documented in the last few decades on the utilization of near IR, visible and UV light in organic chemical transformations. In this brief review, we provide an overview of the most noteworthy achievements in the area of photocatalytic Suzuki coupling reactions by palladium (Pd)-based catalytic systems. The works on different types of Pd-based photocatalysts for Suzuki coupling reaction and their characteristic as well as catalytic activity in terms of substrate scope, recyclability, TON or TOF are discussed herein.
