Abstract Urea (CO(NH 2 ) ), a nitrogen‐rich compound, is widely used as nitrogen fertilizer in agriculture, key component medicine, and raw material chemical production. The continuously growing demand for urea has spurred an escalation Considering the impacts of byproducts during production, it urgent to explore cost‐effective environmentally benign synthesis methods. Artificial photosynthesis, which utilizes renewable solar power convert carbon dioxide (CO (N not only provides sustainable alternative but also reduces emissions fixes simultaneously. This review delves into C−N coupling pathways, intermediates, their detection methodologies photocatalytic It discusses rational design selection targeted photocatalysts toward synthesis, highlighting characteristics that determine rate‐limiting steps. Furthermore, systematically examines challenges evaluates viable solutions overcome these limitations. By identifying current obstacles proposing potential strategies, this aims advance artificial photosynthesis eco‐friendly approach insights presented herein seek bridge fundamental research with practical applications, ultimately fostering progress energy‐efficient fixation technologies.
