Abstract

The direct utilization of sunlight, especially the visible light part of solar spectrum as a clean and abundant energy source to activate organic reactions is a great challenge in organic chemistry and materials science. Beside the well-developed metal-based photocatalysts such as inorganic semiconductors or transition metal complexes, pure organic photocatalytic systems have gained much attention currently. Among metal-free photocatalysts, nanostructured and highly porous conjugated polymers are of particular interest due to their flexible tunability of optical and electronic properties. In this chapter, an overview on the development of this new class of functional materials is given. Various structural design methods such as donor–acceptor combination on the molecular level, band positions modification, and p/n character variation are shown, and porosity, morphology control and their impact on the photocatalytic efficiency are also described.
