Abstract

Abstract : The visible light-induced N -dealkylation of various alkylamines by a luminescent osmium(vi ) nitrido complex has been investigated. We provide definitive evidence that these reactions occur via an ET/PT mechanism. Abstract : N -Dealkylation of amines by metal oxo intermediates (MO) is related to drug detoxification and DNA repair in biological systems. In this study, we report the first example of N -dealkylation of various alkylamines by a luminescent osmium(vi ) nitrido complex induced by visible light.
