Abstract

Herein a homoleptic rhenium(I) complex bearing three chelating diisocyanide ligands and its photophysical properties are communicated. The complex emits weakly from a high-energy triplet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer excited state with an 8 ns lifetime in deaerated CH3CN at 22 °C and is shown to act as an efficient photoredox catalyst comparable to [Ir(ppy)3] (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine) in representative test reactions.
