Chirality is widely found in many natural products and drug molecules. It is of great significance to obtain optically pure chiral compounds because of the fact that different enantiomers have distinct or even opposite physiological activities. Deracemization is the most direct, efficient and atom-economic approach to obtain a single enantiomer, and the emerging photocatalytic deracemization attracts much attention because of its high efficiency. Herein, the recent advances in photocatalytic deracemization are summarized. The future research direction of this field is also prospected.

Key words: deracemization, chiral molecule, asymmetric synthesis, photocatalysis
