Reversible Switching CuII/CuI Single Sites Catalyze High-rate and Selective CO2 Photoreduction

Xiaolong Zu et al.

Summary: In this study, a model of reversible redox-switching metal-organic framework single-unit-cell sheets is designed, where abundant metal single sites enable highly selective CO2 reduction, and reversible redox-switching metal sites effectively activate CO2 molecules. Using synthetic Cu-MOF single-unit-cell sheets as an example, the reversible switching of Cu-II/Cu-I single sites is found to facilitate the transfer of photoexcited electrons to CO2 molecules, leading to efficient activation of CO2. As a result, Cu-MOF single-unit-cell sheets achieve near 100% selectivity for CO2 photoreduction to CO with a high rate, outperforming previously reported photocatalysts.
