Visible-light photoredox catalysis has been experiencing a renaissance in response to topical interest in renewable energy and green chemistry. The latest progress in this area indicates that cooperation between photoredox catalysis and other domains of catalysis could provide effective results. Thus, we advance the concept of cooperative photoredox catalysis for organic transformations. It is important to note that this concept can bridge the gap between visible-light photoredox catalysis and other types of redox catalysis such as transition-metal catalysis, biocatalysis or electrocatalysis. In doing so, one can take advantage of the best of both worlds in establishing organic synthesis with visible-light-induced redox reaction as a crucial step.
可见光光氧化还原催化技术因人们对可再生能源和绿色化学的关注而复兴。该领域的最新进展表明，光氧化还原催化与其他催化领域的合作可能会产生有效的结果。因此，我们提出了用于有机转化的协同光氧化还原催化的概念。值得注意的是，该概念可以弥合可见光光氧化还原催化与其他类型的氧化还原催化（如过渡金属催化、生物催化或电催化）之间的差距。这样，人们可以利用两者的优势，将可见光诱导的氧化还原反应作为关键步骤建立有机合成。
