Abstract
Plasmonics has emerged as a promising methodology to promote chemical reactions and has become a field of intense research effort. Ag nanoparticles (NPs) as plasmonic catalysts have been extensively studied because of their remarkable optical properties. This review analyzes the emergence and development of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in organic chemistry, mainly focusing on the discovery of novel reactions with new mechanisms on Ag NPs. Initially, the basics of LSPR and LSPR-promoted photocatalytic mechanisms are illustrated. Then, the recent advances in plasmonic nanosilver-mediated photocatalysis in organic transformations are highlighted with an emphasis on the related reaction mechanisms. Finally, a proper perspective on the remaining challenges and future directions in the field of LSPR-promoted organic transformations is proposed.
