This review highlights the role of photobiocatalysis in enhancing selectivity and efficiency in organic synthesis, suggesting its potential for green chemistry.
Photocatalysis has emerged as a powerful tool to generate reactive intermediates under mild reaction conditions. The combination of photocatalysis and biocatalysis, possessing advantages of the reactivity of photocatalysts and the selectivity of enzymes, has received increasing attention for its potential to realize the green synthesis of value-added chemicals. This review provides an overview of recent progress in photobiocatalysis, including the regeneration of cofactors, generation of H2O2 in situ, cascades involving a photobiocatalytic transformation, and the photoinduced enzymatic reactions inspired by the photoactive cofactor within the enzyme.
