This review summarizes recent advances made with photoactive Cr III , Fe II , Cu I , Zn II , Zr IV , Mo 0 and U VI complexes in the context of synthetic organic photoredox chemistry using visible light as an energy input. Mechanistic considerations are combined with discussions of reaction types and scopes. Perspectives for the future of the field are discussed against the background of recent significant developments of new photoactive metal complexes made from earth‐abundant elements. More information can be found in the Review article on page 2039 ff.
