Visible Light-Driven Organic Synthesis covers the recent cutting-edge investigations in the field of visible light- driven organic synthesis in a single comprehensive volume. It provides information on rigorously selected reaction schemes and covers new reactions and new methods under visible light photocatalysis. It enlists more than 100 important synthetic strategies/methodologies with particular emphasis on useful reactions for organic synthesis under the mild reaction conditions reported in recent times involving carbon-carbon (C-C) and carbon-heteroatom bond-forming reactions, resulting in a wide spectrum of chemical compounds, providing an outstanding source of information concerning industrial applications. The chapters are classified based on various photocatalysts that have found direct applications in organic synthesis by carrying out different kinds of organic reactions. Each chapter is dedicated to a particular photocatalyst, and each selected reaction is dealt with in a compact manner through point-wise discussion under distinct subheadings covering the reaction type, reaction conditions, bond-forming information, reaction strategy involved, general reaction scheme, examples of representative entries with chemical structures and physical properties, a suggested plausible mechanism, critical views, and literature. In addition, visible light-mediated self-sensitized organic transformations that took place without any external photocatalysts have also been covered. This book is immensely helpful to chemistry students, teachers, researchers, academicians, and chemical/ agrochemical industry people to access the latest information and advances on visible light-driven organic synthesis developments.

Brahmachari, Goutam
Dr. Goutam Brahmachari is a full professor of organic chemistry at Visva-Bharati University, Santiniketan, India. His research focuses on developing practical synthetic methods for carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds using C-H functionalization, cascade, and cross-coupling techniques, with applications in medicinal heterocyclic scaffolds. He has also studied the chemistry and biology of traditionally used Indian medicinal plants, identifying novel phytochemicals of interest.
He is the founding Series Editor of Elsevier's Natural Product Drug Discovery book series and an elected fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry. His awards include the Acharya P. C. Ray Memorial Lecture Award (2025) from the Indian Science News Association (ISNA), Kolkata, India; the Dr. Satyajit Chakraborti Memorial Award (2025) from IEM, Kolkata, India; the Chemical Research Society of India Bronze Medal (2021); the Dr. Basudev Banerjee Memorial Award (2021) from the Indian Chemical Society; the Indian National Science Academy Teachers Award (2019); the Dr. Kalam Best Teaching Faculty Award (2017); and the Academic Brilliance Award (2015).
