Abstract
Photopolymerization offers a unique opportunity to convert liquid monomers to polymers using light as the activation source. Recently, major efforts have been devoted to developing visible light photo-initiating systems, and the search for new dyes that can be incorporated into photocurable resins and polymerize a resin within a few seconds is still ongoing. With the aim of exploring a maximum of structures to reach this goal, quinoxaline has been identified to be a promising scaffold for the design of UV-centered and visible light photo-initiating systems. In this review, an overview of the different quinoxaline-based dyes will be given. In order to evidence the interest in these structures, comparisons with reference systems will be given.
