TL;DR: In this paper , the ability of CdS nanocrystal quantum dots (QDs) to function as strong photoreductants was investigated and it was shown that Auger recombination, a photophysical phenomenon known to occur in photoexcited anionic QDs, generates transient thermally excited electrons to enable the observed reductions.
Journal ArticleDOI
CdS Quantum Dots for Metallaphotoredox-Enabled Cross-Electrophile Coupling of Aryl Halides with Alkyl Halides
TL;DR: In this article , the authors show that 5.7 nm CdS QDs are robust photocatalysts for photoredox-promoted cross-electrophile coupling (turnover number up to 40,000).
