Bringing to light: The rediscovery of visible light as an abundant energy source for organic reactions has most recently brought copper-catalyzed coupling reactions to the center of attention. This Highlight summarizes the most significant advancements in the field of C-C and C-N coupling reactions in which covalent copper–substrate complexes are photo-activated.
