Although dispersion interactions between closed-shell entities have an established impact in catalysis, 15 the exploitation of radical-p interactions has been vastly overlooked. Additionally, the co-catalyst is a triplet-state relay that ensures a more efficient substrate activation. This feature is original and not previously observed in our studies because they involved commercial Ir(III) complexes whose ET were not sufficient for the efficient sensitization of naphthyl derivatives. 12c,13
