摘要

Photoredox reactions in the presence of visible light mainly use transition-metal photocatalysts. These reactions are used to synthesise pharmacophores. The crucial step involves generating radicals, and the main focus is on forming new bonds such as carbon–carbon, carbon–nitrogen, or carbon–oxygen bonds. Examples of converting heterocycles and modifying benzylic compounds include adding aryl groups to 5 or 6-membered (hetero)arenes, rearrangements, Michael-like additions, [3 + 2] cycloadditions, and more. The wide range of reactions is essential for effectively generating useful molecules using photoredox methods.
