Abstract

A thioxanthone-based nonionic surfactant forms micellar nanoreactors enabling versatile aqueous photocatalysis via energy transfer (EnT) and/or photoinduced electron transfer (PET). Without a sacrificial electron donor, it sensitises molecular oxygen for thioether oxidation. Conversely, adding a nickel catalyst and Et₃N switches the path to PET, driving C-P couplings in water.
