A key feature of prominent transition-metal-containing photoredox catalysts (PCs) is high quantum yield access to long-lived excited states characterized by a change in spin multiplicity. For organic PCs, challenges emerge for promoting excited-state intersystem crossing (ISC), particularly when potent excited-state reductants are desired. Herein, we report a design exploiting orthogonal π-systems and an intermediate-energy charge-transfer excited state to maximize ISC yields (Φ<sub>ISC</sub>) i ...[more]
