Congratulations to Jianqing Qi and Weiqun Suo on the publication of research on photocatalysis in J. Am. Chem. Soc. (doi:10.1021/jacs.3c14471)!
In this study, we collaborated with Prof. Xingwei Guo’s research team to directly observe a photocatalytic reaction known as the Giese reaction using the innovative U-PSD time-resolved EPR. For the first time, all radical and radical ion species involved in the catalytic cycle were clearly observed and identified. This groundbreaking achievement serves as a proof-of-concept demonstrating the potential of U-PSD TREPR as a powerful tool for radical chemists.
