• utilities, there are still a few drawbacks associated with these photoredox reactions. One of the main limitations is the reliance on precious metals such as Ir, Ru, and Pd, or elaborate organic dyes that act as photosensitizers, which are either limited in abundance or require additional synthetic steps to
