Emerging activation modes and techniques in visible-light-photocatalyzed organic synthesis

Visible light photocatalysis has evolved into a promising mild and sustainable strategy to access radicals. This field unlocks formerly challenging or even previously inaccessible organic transformations. In this review, an overview of some lesser-known modes of photochemical activation of organic molecules and several emerging techniques within the versatile field of visible light photocatalysis are discussed. These are illustrated by selected photocatalytic reactions, with particular attention given to the reaction mechanism.
