In this review, we highlight the use of organic photoredox catalysts in a myriad of synthetic
transformations with a range of applications. This overview is arranged by catalyst class …

1. INTRODUCTION A fundamental aim in the field of catalysis is the development of new
modes of small molecule activation. One approach toward the catalytic activation of organic …

Molecule-based heterogeneous photocatalysts without noble metals are one of the most
attractive systems for visible-light-driven CO2 reduction. However, reports on this class of …

Although justly considered as a cumbersome component in artificial photosystems, these
simple molecules are a “necessary evil” to drive photo-induced reactions aiming at …

Developing photocatalytic systems for CO 2 reduction will provide useful and energy-rich
compounds and would be one of the most important focuses in the field of “artificial …

Increasing levels of CO2 in the atmosphere is a problem that must be urgently resolved if the
rise in current global temperatures is to be slowed. Chemically reducing CO2 into …

In the last few years, visible‐light initiated organic transformations have attracted increasing
attention. The development of visible‐light‐promoted photocatalytic reactions, which enable …

Reduction of CO 2 is one of the most important reactions that might solve the problems of
global warming and shortage of fossil-fuel resources simultaneously. Metal complex …

Ketone–olefin coupling reactions are common methods for the formation of carbon–carbon
bonds. This reaction class typically requires stoichiometric or super stoichiometric quantities …

The use of visible light sensitization as a means to initiate organic reactions is attractive due
to the lack of visible light absorbance by organic compounds, reducing side reactions often …
