Abstract

Materials development for artificial photosynthesis, in particular, CO2 reduction, has been under extensive efforts, ranging from inorganic semiconductors to molecular complexes. In this report, we demonstrate a metal–organic framework (MOF)-coated nanoparticle photocatalyst with enhanced CO2 reduction activity and stability, which stems from having two different functional units for activity enhancement and catalytic stability combined together as a single construct. Covalently attaching a CO2-to-CO conversion photocatalyst ReI(CO)3(BPYDC)Cl, BPYDC = 2,2′-bipyridine-5,5′-dicarboxylate, to a zirconium MOF, UiO-67 (Ren-MOF), prevents dimerization leading to deactivation. By systematically controlling its…
