Zusammenfassung:
Visible light photocatalysis relies mainly on expensive noble metal complexes and organic dyes that are not recyclable. Heterogeneous semiconductors, which are mainly applied for artificial photosynthesis and wastewater treatment, are a promising sustainable alternative and gain increasing attention. Inorganic and organic semiconductors with suitable bandgaps are among the most widely studied heterogeneous photocatalysts due to their high stability and recyclability. More recently, microporous materials, such as conjugated organic polymers, covalent organic frameworks, and metal organic frameworks that can be tuned and designed on a molecular level showed promising results. This review provides an overview of the most common heterogeneous photocatalysts with a focus on their applicability in organic synthesis.
