“…However, these metal NPs have been explored as a co-catalyst for various photocatalyst systems [141][142][143]. This is because the plasmonic peak of Pt NPs appears below 450 nm, while the SPR properties of Ag and Au can be well tuned in visible to IR region, and therefore, the Pt and Pd NPs have not been typically used for developing the plasmonic photocatalysts [144][145][146].…”

Photocatalysis is a multifunctional phenomenon that can be employed for energy applications such as H2 production, CO2 reduction into fuels, and environmental applications such as pollutant degradations, antibacterial disinfection, etc. In this direction, it is not an exaggerated fact that TiO2 is blooming in the field of photocatalysis, which is largely explored for various photocatalytic applications. The deeper understanding of TiO2 photocatalysis has led to the design of new photocatalytic materials with multiple functionalities. Accordingly, this paper exclusively reviews the recent developments in the modification of TiO2 photocatalyst towards the understanding of its photocatalytic mechanisms. These modifications generally involve the physical and chemical changes in TiO2 such as anisotropic structuring and integration with other metal oxides, plasmonic materials, carbon-based materials, etc. Such modifications essentially lead to the changes in the energy structure of TiO2 that largely boosts up the photocatalytic process via enhancing the band structure alignments, visible light absorption, carrier separation, and transportation in the system. For instance, the ability to align the band structure in TiO2 makes it suitable for multiple photocatalytic processes such as degradation of various pollutants, H2 production, CO2 conversion, etc. For these reasons, TiO2 can be realized as a prototypical photocatalyst, which paves ways to develop new photocatalytic materials in the field. In this context, this review paper sheds light into the emerging trends in TiO2 in terms of its modifications towards multifunctional photocatalytic applications.

“…However, there are already several examples that demonstrate the viability of using SC photocatalysts to induce organic transformations . Some specific reactions promoted by TiO 2 are the oxidation of aliphatic and aromatic systems, or alcohols; the conversion of lactic acid into acetaldehyde; the synthesis of α‐chloro aryl ketones from aryldiazonium salts and terminal alkynes; Ullmann reactions; the conversion of amines to imines; the N‐alkylation of amines with alcohols; the addition of amines to deficient alkenes; heterocyclic functionalizations; the Huisgen [3+2] cycloaddition of azides and alkynes; or the addition of thiols to alkenes …”

The conversion of sunlight into chemical energy by using photosynthetic machinery is at the heart of nature and life. Scientists have also learned to use light energy to promote a great variety of chemical reactions, most of which are based on redox processes involving electron‐transfer steps. Indeed, the area of photoredox catalysis has recently emerged as one of the hottest fields in synthetic chemistry. Many of the photoredox reactions discovered so far take place in homogeneous phases, and rely on the use of soluble photoresponsive catalysts. However, in recent years, there have been many advances in the area of heterogeneous photocatalysis, most of which are based on the use of semiconductor materials, such as TiO2, as a key photocatalytic system. These technologies have found different applications, especially in the field of sustainable chemistry and therapy. Herein, some of these applications, and the potential of TiO2‐based photocatalysts in biology and biomedicine, are reviewed.
