The single atom photocatalyst exhibits a large surface area, exceptional catalytic activity, and selectivity, thereby enhancing reaction efficiency and minimizing the occurrence of side reactions. Its catalytic mechanism is easily comprehensible, rendering it uniquely promising for organic synthesis reactions. The single-atom photocatalysis, in addition to its excellent recyclability, represents a novel and environmentally friendly catalytic strategy that offers unique opportunities for organic photocatalytic synthesis chemistry. Although single-atom photocatalysis has received widespread attention in many fields, its application in organic synthesis research is still relatively rare and lacks a systematic summary. In order to enable readers to quickly understand the progress in this field, the present review provides a comprehensive overview of the applications of single atom photocatalysts in various organic synthesis reactions over the past decade, classified according to bond formation involving C-C and C-X (X = N, O, S, P, B, etc.). Moreover, this review also elucidates the application range and underlying mechanisms involved in these reactions, aiming to lay the foundation for the development of new single-atom photocatalytic organic synthesis methods.
