Visible‐light photoredox‐catalyzed transformation of carbon dioxide has emerged as a privileged technique for forging C−C and C−X bonds. Both nucleophilic and electrophilic activation of CO 2 by visible‐light photocatalysis enable efficient access of essential functionalities. The easy access of pervasive CO 2 can readily be incorporated into various synthetic organic motifs, delivering value‐added products. The advancements of visible‐light‐mediated photoredox‐catalyzed processes for CO 2 fixation onto organic matters are elaborately discussed, especially focusing on reports from 2018 to 2020.
