Herein, we have established a phenalenyl-based molecular scaffold which serves as a potent photoreductant utilizing the empty NBMO in the presence of a base to form a radical anion which, upon photoexcitation, behaves as a stronger reductant and accomplishes the cleavage of strong C-X (X = Cl, Br, I) bonds under milder reaction conditions. The base was found to be involved in a dual role of electron and hydrogen atom donor. Further, the aryl radical formed by the homolysis of C-X bonds in this technique was captured for the C |
