This article discusses recent developments in the photocatalytic reduction of nitro compounds to valuable intermediates, such as amines and azo compounds. Nitro compounds are widely used in various industries but pose environmental and health hazards due to their toxicity and nondegradability. Traditional reduction methods often use harsh conditions and toxic chemicals, making the utilization of photocatalytic organic transformations an attractive option for sustainable and green chemical processes. The article provides an overview of different photocatalytic systems, including metal-organic frameworks, semiconductors, and nanocomposites, and explores their synthesis, performance, stability, recyclability, and selectivity. The use of hole scavengers and sacrificial reagents to enhance the reduction process is also mentioned. The studies demonstrate the potential of these photocatalytic systems for efficient and environmentally friendly nitro compound reduction. [Extracted from the article] |
