Over the past few years, photocatalytic methods have shown great promise as low-cost, environmentally friendly, and sustainable technologies. During the development of photochemistry, a variety of sources of light were used, including sunlight, compact fluorescent lamps, lasers, and even light-emitting diodes. As a part of preparing diverse organic compounds, the photochemical approach was used, for instance, to form rings, arylated compounds, cycloaddition, functionalized compounds, dehalogenated compounds, oxidized compounds, reduced compounds, isomers, and sensitized compounds. Solar energy is a renewable resource that can be harvested from the sun and this light energy can be changed into chemical energy with the help of photocatalysts. During this green approach, electron-hole pairs are generated in photocatalysts in order to begin reactions by using solar light. It has been highlighted in this article that there have been impressive developments in the use of light, mainly the solar light, to promote important organic reactions, which would otherwise be unattainable under thermal conditions.
在过去几年中，光催化方法作为低成本、环境友好且可持续的技术展现出了巨大潜力。在光化学发展过程中，使用了多种光源，包括阳光、紧凑型荧光灯、激光，甚至发光二极管。作为制备各种有机化合物的一部分，采用了光化学方法，例如形成环、芳基化化合物、环加成、功能化化合物、脱卤化合物、氧化化合物、还原化合物、异构体和敏化化合物。太阳能是一种可再生资源，可以从太阳获取，并且这种光能在光催化剂的帮助下可以转化为化学能。在这种绿色方法中，光催化剂中会产生电子 - 空穴对，以便利用太阳光引发反应。本文强调，在利用光，主要是太阳光来促进重要有机反应方面已经取得了令人瞩目的进展，而这些反应在热条件下原本是无法实现的。
