Key points
- Dual catalysis integrates photocatalysis with various co-catalysts (redox mediators, acids, organocatalysts, enzymes, metal complexes).
- Photocatalysis generates reactive intermediates via electron transfer, hydrogen atom transfer, or energy transfer.
- These strategies enable synthetically useful bond constructions.
- The review focuses on cooperative interactions between photocatalysts and co-catalysts.

Abstract
The interaction between an electronically excited photocatalyst and an organic molecule can result in the genertion of a diverse array of reactive intermediates that can be manipulated in a variety of ways to result in synthetically useful bond constructions. This Review summarizes dual-catalyst strategies that have been applied to synthetic photochemistry. Mechanistically distinct modes of photocatalysis are discussed, including photoinduced electron transfer, hydrogen atom transfer, and energy transfer. We focus upon the cooperative interactions of photocatalysts with redox mediators, Lewis and Brønsted acids, organocatalysts, enzymes, and transition metal complexes.
