Dyes can CO do it : Organic dyes and pigments are usually applied in textile dyeing, which can be dated back to the Neolithic period. Interestingly, the possibility to use organic dyes as photoredox catalysts has also been noticed by organic chemists and applied in organic synthesis. Carbonylation reactions as a powerful procedure in carbonyl‐containing compound preparation have also been studied. In this manuscript, the recent achievements in using organic dyes as visible‐light sensitizers in carbonylation chemistry are summarized and discussed.
