Metal is photolytically deposited from solution onto a substrate in contact with the solution by irradiating with light a solution containing a solubilized metal source and an organic compound containing a plurality of proximal Lewis base substituent groups so as to be capable of promoting the photoreduction of the metal onto the substrate.

Photolytic deposition of metal from solution onto a substrate

Metal is photolytically deposited from solution onto a substrate in contact with the solution by irradiating with light a solution containing a solubilized metal and a tetraarylborate compound capable of promoting the photoreduction of the metal onto the substrate.

Ketones are alkylenated to form the corresponding olefin by reaction with a bis(substituted alumino)substituted methane, e.g., in the form of its dietherate.
