Abstract
Light-driven synthesis offers opportunities for more sustainable chemistry, but effective reaction design depends on understanding interactions among photons, substrates and catalysts. This seminar combines spectroscopy with kinetic analysis to resolve those mechanisms. It shows how such evidence can guide more efficient transformations and extend the range of molecules accessible through photochemical synthesis.
