1-(4-(9 H-Carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)-3-amino-9 H-fluorene-2,4-dicarbonitrile as a new photocatalyst for the decarboxylative cross-coupling reaction of α-amino acids or α-oxy carboxylic acids with arylnitriles is described. This light-driven reaction enables a variety of benzylic amines and ethers to be prepared from readily available
