The development of photocatalysts to drive organic reactions is a frontier research topic. Organic polymers can be well tuned in terms of structural and photophysical properties and, therefore, constitute a promising class of photocatalysts in photoredox catalysis for organic synthesis. In this review article, we provide an overview of the concept of photoredox catalysis and recent developments in organic polymers as photocatalysts including porous organic polymers, graphitic carbon nitride, carbon dots, and polymer dots with adjustable reactivity that have undergone state-of-the-art advancement in different photoredox catalytic organic reactions.
