- Title
2-Aryl-1,3-dimethylbenzimidazolines as Effective Electron and Hydrogen Donors in Photoinduced Electron-Transfer Reactions.

- Abstract
2-Aryl-1,3-dimethylbenzimidazolines (DMBIHs) have been applied to photoinduced electron-transfer reductions of various organic substrates. Either direct or indirect electron transfer between the substrates and DMBIHs is utilized to promote the desired transformations. Photoexcitation of the substrates using light above 280 nm was carried out in the former protocol whereas a photosensitization method using materials such as substituted pyrenes, ruthenium and iridium complexes that absorb longer-wavelength light was employed in the latter. In these reactions, DMBIHs undergo initial electron transfer and subsequent proton or hydrogen atom transfer.
