Abstract
Xanthene dyes (XD) are widely used a photocatalysts in many important organic chemical reactions in the liquid phase. Several
such reactions are listed in this brief article. XD react in the excited triplet state XD* of a dye. The reasons for utilizing XD as
the redox photocatalysts are explained. A problem is outlined, whether XD act as the photocatalysts or as the reagents partially
consumed during a synthesis.
