The photophysical and electrochemical properties of a strongly reducing dihydrophenazine and phenoxazine enable their application as visible light photoredox catalysts to catalyze reactions that were previously restricted to precious metals. These organic visible light photoredox catalysts not only present sustainable alternatives to precious metals, but can possess enhanced properties to their metal counterparts for catalysis.
