Herein, we have developed a new class of organic photocatalysts that can mimic transition metals for several oxidative and reductive organic cross-coupling transformations. Due to its wide potential window in both the oxidation and reduction ranges, cinnoline exhibits dual catalytic activity under visible light illumination, acting as both a photoreductant and photooxidant.
