Abstract
Thioxanthone (TX) and its derivatives are standout, heavy-atom-free triplet photosensitizers, due to their high triplet energy, long-lived triplet states, and ability to work synergistically with metal catalysts. These features render them highly useful in photochemical processes. A previous 2021 review covered TX's photophysical properties and photochemical applications. This review constitutes an update and highlights the growing number of studies since then, demonstrating TX's versatility in synthetic organic photochemistry. The content covers the literature during the period 2021–2025 and is organized by reaction type excluding applications in polymerization reactions.
期刊介绍：
With an impact factor of 4.495 (2018), ChemCatChem is one of the premier journals in the field of catalysis. The journal provides primary research papers and critical secondary information on heterogeneous, homogeneous and bio- and nanocatalysis. The journal is well placed to strengthen cross-communication within between these communities. Its authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories across the world. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies, and is supported by the German Catalysis Society.
