Abstract
quantum dots (QDs) as the catalyst as well as the photosensitizer. QDs indeed emerged to be an active participant in the heterogeneous electron transfer process. This concept opens up new possibilities in the field of nanomaterial-based photomediated organic transformations without the aid of any external photosensitizers via a clean and sustainable protocol with no side product.
