Novel ligands can redefine reaction capabilities and improve catalysis for the production of pharmaceuticals

Caption

Novel PNP-pincer ligands can help platinum-based complexes catalyze reactions under visible light irradiation. The improvement in the use of transition metal catalysts will help improve industrial processes such as the production of pharmaceuticals, dyes, pigments, etc.
