Photochemistry with iron catalysts has been sprung up in organic synthesis, including iron/photoredox dual catalysis, light‐induced iron photoredox catalysis and light‐induced generation of active iron catalysts. A description of the development of the earth‐abundant and inexpensive iron complexes in visible‐light‐induced organic transformations as well as a brief introduction of the photophysical properties of iron complexes together with a discussion of recent process in applying iron complexes in photochemistry and the prospect for future of this field is provided in the Concept article by W.‐J. Zhou, D.‐G. Yu et al. on page 15052 ff.
