Photoredox catalysis has emerged as a powerful tool in organic synthesis, revolutionizing how chemists approach challenging bond-forming reactions. The importance of 1,3-benzothiazoles lies their diverse roles medicinal chemistry, materials science, and industrial applications, due to stability, bioactivity, versatility building blocks. This review represents the most comprehensive work date on photochemical methods for synthesizing 1,3-benzothiazoles, covering developments this field from 2009 2024. It is organized by types starting compounds discusses synthetic strategies target alongside proposed reaction mechanisms. Notably, many established light-driven are photocatalyst-free typically conducted under visible light (CFL, white, green, or blue LED) at room temperature. By exploring range methods, not only deepens our understanding benzothiazole synthesis but also inspires possibilities future advancements. We hope will motivate pursue new, environmentally friendly these related biologically significant sulfur heterocycles.
