Heterocycles are important class of structures, which occupy a major space in the domain of natural and bioactive compounds. For this reason, development of new synthetic strategies for their controllable synthesis became of special interests. The development of novel photoredox systems with wide-range application in organic synthesis is particularly interesting. Organic dyes have been widely applied as photoredox catalysts in organic synthesis. Their low costs compared to the typical photocatalysts based on transition metals make them an excellent alternative. This review describes proceedings since 2015 in the area of application of metal-free, visible-light-mediated catalysis for assembling various heterocyclic scaffolds containing five- and six-membered rings bearing nitrogen and oxygen heteroatoms.

Abstract:: Organic synthesis under environment friendly conditions has great impact in the sustainable development. In this context, visible light photocatalysis has emerged as a green model as this offers an energy-efficient pathway towards the organic transformation. Different transition-metal catalysts (Ir-, Ru-, Cu- etc) and organic dyes (eosin Y, rose bengal, methylene blue etc) are well-known photocatalysts in organic synthesis. Apart from the well-known organophotoredox catalysts, rhodamines (Rhodamine B and Rhodamine 6G) have been also employed as efficient photocatalysts for different organic transformations. In this review, we will focus on the photocatalysis by rhodamines in organic synthesis. Mechanistic pathway of the methodologies will also be discussed. We believe this review will stimulate the employment of rhodamines in the visible light photocatalysis for efficient organic transformations in the future.

Abstract Over the last decade, visible light photocatalysis has dramatically increased the arsenal of methods for organic synthesis and changed the way we activate molecules for chemical reactions. Polypyridyl transition metal complexes, redox-active organic dyes, and inorganic semiconductors are typically used as photocatalysts for such transformations. This chapter reviews the applications of radical anions and anions as photosensitizers in visible light photoredox catalysis.
