A highly selective and divergent synthesis enables access to various molecules has garnered broad interest from not only organic chemists but also medicinal biologists who work with chemical libraries. Since the 20th century, such transformations have been achieved using transition-metal-catalyzed reactions, in which choice of catalyst or ligand crucially affects selectivity. Over past several decades, photocatalysts attracted a considerable amount attention because they provide additional ways control reaction intermediates product selectivity via electron energy transfer. From this perspective, we highlight recent development switchable syntheses photocatalysts, are difficult achieve classical catalytic transformations.
