Abstract

The basic principles of photocatalysis are introduced from the perspective of a homogeneous system using a molecular photosensitizer. Model photophysical and redox properties of a molecular photosensitizer are discussed. Generic reaction schemes are presented for established photocatalytic protocols via photooxidative and photoreductive mechanisms with sacrificial electron donating or accepting agents. Inspired by natural photosynthesis, prototypical examples of photocatalytic CO₂ reduction and photocatalytic H₂O oxidation are also included. Finally, an introduction to the growing field of photocatalytic organic transformations is provided.
