Synergistic Photoredox and Electrochemical Catalysis in Organic Synthesis and Late‐Stage Functionalizations

Abstract This review delves into the innovative field of interfacial photoelectrochemical (iPEC) and photoelectrochemical (PEC) catalysis, the dynamic synthesis methodologies that seamlessly integrates electrochemical and photoredox catalysis for efficient and environmentally friendly reactions. Utilizing minute quantities of photocatalysts, visible light becomes a powerful tool, generating transient excited states to catalyze a spectrum of reactions through single‐electron oxidation or reduction events. The review categorizes recent advancements, highlighting applications in organic synthesis, late‐stage modifications, and the distinctive features of photoelectrochemical methodology. Despite being in its early stages, this synergistic approach holds great promise for propelling organic synthesis forward, with potential applications in large‐scale synthesis and diverse late‐stage functionalizations, including asymmetric catalysis and bioconjugation strategies for biomolecule modifications.
