Inspired by naturally occurring biological processes, flavins have proven to be versatile organic frameworks for a wide variety of catalytic, photochemical procedures. Grounded in the photochemical activation mechanisms that are synonymous with flavins, this chapter surveys the photophysical and structural foundations of selected examples in flavin photocatalysis.
