Construction of C-C bonds via photoreductive coupling of ketones and aldehydes in the metal-organic-framework MFM-300(Cr)

The construction of C-C bonds via reductive coupling carbonyl compounds is a huge challenge in organic transformations. Here, the authors develop a highly efficient system for the photoreductive coupling of aldehydes and ketones to the corresponding 1,2-diols under mild conditions.
