(Reaction conditions: 50 mL autoclave with a sapphire glass window on the top side and a thermocouple inside, 5 mL solution of 1mM
NAD+, 10 uM 7, 0.5 M HCOONa, irradiation of 100 w green LEDs. Note: higher or lower temperature will cause condensed water on
glass window, which affects the photo flux. )
As shown in Figure S3, apparent activation energy (Ea) was calculated according to Arrhenius equation:
Ea = −R𝑑ln(TOF)
𝑑(1T)
= 3.2 ± 0.4 kcal mol−1
Hydricity measurements were performed in sealed NMR tubes containing ca. 10 mM hydride donor at room
temperature (ca. 25 °C) and ca. 10 mM acceptor. Acetonitrile-d3 was degassed by freeze-pump-thaw cycle for
three times. Hydricity was calculated based on the thermodynamic equilibrium constant (K) according to:
DH + A AH- + D+
HydricityDH = Hydricity AH + 𝛥G = Hydricity AH − RTlnK
K = [AH] × [D][DH] × [A]
where K was estimated as 4.3 by integration of the 1H NMR spectra (Figure S44-S49), corresponding to a ΔG
of -0.9 kcal mol-1.

Quantum yield measurements
The quantum yield was calculated according to:
𝜙 = mol NADH
photo flux × t × f1
where t is reaction time and f1 is the fraction of light absorbed by photocatalysts at 456 nm or 525 nm.
The photon flux of blue and green LEDs could be determined by standard ferrioxalate actinometry and
Reineckate’s salt actinomertry, respectively 1-3.
Photo flux = mol actinometry product𝜙actinometry × t × f2
where f2 is the fraction of light absorbed by ferrioxalate at 456 nm or Reineckate’s salt at 525 nm. The quantum
yield could be expressed as
𝜙 = 𝜙actinometry × rNADH × f2
ractinometry × f1
where rNADH and ractinometry are reaction rate of NADH and actinometry product, respectively. (rNADH = mol NADH
/ t, ractinometry = mol actinometry product / t)
To determine the quantum yield of NADH regeneration in the presence of photocatalyst 1 under irradiation of
40 w blue LEDs, to a 4 mL cuvette (l = 1.0 cm) was added 2 mL 0.15 M ferrioxalate aqueous sulfuric acid (0.2 M)
solution. The cuvette placed 1 cm away from 40 w blue LEDs (456 nm). After irradiation for 5 seconds, 0.1 mL
of the ferrioxalate solution was added to 0.4 mL 0.15 M 1,10-phenanthroline sulfuric acid (0.2 M) solution. After
1h, the sample was diluted to 2 mL with 0.2 M sulfuric acid solution.

Figure S4. a) standard curve for Fe(II) quantification; b) formation of Fe(II) under irradiation at 456 nm as a function of time.
The Fe(II) concentration of the resulting solution was measured by UV-Vis spectrometer at 510 nm. As shown
in Figure S4, the rate of Fe(II) formation (ractinometry) is 0.832 umol s-1. A solution (2 mL) of 1 mM NAD+, 0.5 M
HCOONa and 10 uM 1 was added to the same cuvette which was equipped with a rubber spetum cap and
purged with Ar through a needle. The solution was irradiated by the 40 w blue LEDs and cooled with a fan. After
15 min the NADH was measured by a UV-Vis spectrometer at 340 nm. As a result, rate of NADH formation
(rNADH) was 0.15 umol h-1. The f1 for 10 uM 1 was 0.117 (A = C1 × I × ε456 nm = 10uM × 1cm × 5368 M-1cm-1=
0.054, f = 1- 10-A =0.117). The Φactinometry and f2 for ferrioxalate were reported as 0.845 and 0.9926.2
𝜙 = 0.845 × 0.15 ÷ 3600 × 0.9926
0.832 × 0.117 = 3.6 × 10−4
Therefore quantum yield of NADH regeneration in the presence of photocatalyst 1 was 3.6×10-4.
For the quantum yield of NADH regeneration in the presence of photocatalyst 7 under irradiation of 40 w green
LEDs (525 nm), Reineckate’s salt actinomertry was applied according to a reported procedure.3 Commercially
available ammonium Reinecke’s salt was converted to the potassium salt (KCr(NH3)(SCN)4) by dissolving in
warm (40-50 °C) water, adding excess solid potassium nitrate, cooling, and filtering. The product was
recrystallized carefully two times from warm water under dimmer condtions and dried under vacuum. 2 mL of 4
mM fresh potassium Reinecke’s salt solution was added to a 4 mL cuvette. After irradiation, 0.1 mL was added
to 0.9 mL 10 mM Fe(NO3)3 nitric acid (2.5 wt %) solution. After diluted 5 times with 2.5 wt% nitric acid, the
concentration of free thiocyanate anion was determined with a UV-Vis spectrometer at 440 nm. The rate of
SCN- formation (ractinometry) was 0.119 umol s-1. The rate of NADH formation (rNADH) in the presence of 7 under
the same irradiation was 1.56 umol h-1. The f1 for 10 uM 7 was 0.117 (A = C1 × I × ε525 nm = 10uM × 1cm × 3761
M-1cm-1= 0.038, f = 1- 10-A =0.084). The Φactinometry and f2 for Reinecke’s salt were reported as 0.286 and
0.639.[5]
𝜙 = 0.286 × 1.56 ÷ 3600 × 0.639
0.119 × 0.084 = 7.9 × 10−3
Therefore quantum yield of NADH regeneration in the presence of photocatalyst 7 was 7.9×10-3.

Synthesis of L-glutamate
For L-glutamate synthesis, 4 mL 0.1M phosphate buffer (pH = 7.4) solution containing 1 mM NAD+, 50 uM
photocatalyst 7, 2 U glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), 0.5 M HCOONa, 0.05 M (NH4)2SO4 and 10 mM
α-ketoglutarate was added to a Schlenk tube equipped with a rubber stopper and a sampling syringe and then
the tube was purged with argon and placed in front of green LEDs (100 w, 525 nm). The reaction temperature
was kept lower than 40 °C through cooling with a fan. After 1.5 h irradiation, another 10 mM α-ketoglutarate
was added and irradiated for 1 h. After a certain time irradiation, the reaction mixture was sampled and
derivated with phenyl isothiocyanate as the following procedure: To each 200 uL diluted sample was added
100uL 2.5 wt% phenyl isothiocyanate acetonitrile solution and 100 uL 1 M NEt3 acetonitrile solution. The
resulting mixture was kept at room temperature for 1 h, then 600 uL hexane was used to extract unreacted
phenyl isothiocyanate. 200 uL of bottom layer (acetonitrile) was added to 800 uL water and filtered for HPLC
analysis. Analysis of derivated L-glutamate samples was done on a Shimadzu Prominence 20 HPLC system,
equipped with a C18 column and a UV-Vis detector.
