  1. aReaction time: 8 h; light power: 63.5–66.9 mW (λex = 300 ± 10 nm) and 55.1 mW (289 ± 10 nm). bEstimated based on the amounts of used aromatic amines and absorbance of the products. cApparent quantum yield (%). dThe ex-situ-prepared Fe complex was used. eNot detected. fThe reaction was not investigated due to the formation of precipitates after mixing [FeII(H2O)6][ClO4]2 and 3 eq. of the substrates. gNot estimated.
