Isolated Single-Atom Cobalt in the ZnIn2S4 Monolayer with Exposed Zn Sites for CO2 Photofixation

Chang-Long Tan et al.

Summary: Constructing highly active photocatalysts with rich reactive sites allows for the environmentally friendly utilization of CO2 with organic compounds. In this study, single-atom (SA) decorated two-dimensional (2D) single-layer ZnIn2S4 (ZIS) nanosheet composites with dual active centers of Co and Zn were used for CO2 fixation under visible light. The optimized Co-(s)ZIS composites exhibited significantly improved CO2-epoxide cycloaddition performance, attributing to the unique ensemble that optimizes light harvesting, promotes charge carrier separation, and enriches the bifunctional active sites. This work provides a paradigm for interfacial engineered SA-onto-2D semiconductors and highlights the structure-activity relationship by the well-defined active sites in this SA-based hybrid platform.

Yuyin Mao et al.

Summary: In this study, two different nickel single-atom catalysts (Ni-SACs) were constructed on WO2.72 nanowires, including bulk doping of single Ni atoms in WO2.72 (B-Ni-1/WO2.72) and surface anchoring of single Ni atoms on WO2.72 (S-Ni-1/WO2.72), to explore the electronic structure manipulation for enhancing CO2 photoreduction.

Photoredox-Promoted Co-Production of Dihydroisoquinoline and H2O2 over Defective Zn3In2S6

Juanjuan Luo et al.

Summary: Photosynthesis is a sustainable and promising method for low-cost and environment-friendly hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production. However, its poor carrier utilization and low H2O2 productivity limit its practical use. This study introduces tetrahydroisoquinolines (THIQs) as a distinctive proton donor for efficient H2O2 production and simultaneous generation of highly valuable dihydroisoquinolines (DHIQs) under visible light using dual-functional Zn3In2S6 photocatalyst. Remarkably, the suitably defective Zn3In2S6 achieves a near-stoichiometric co-production of H2O2 and DHIQs at unprecedentedly high rates, outperforming previous reports. The photocatalytic redox reaction mechanism reveals the synergistic effect among reactive oxygen species (ROS), holes (h+), and the proton donor for H2O2 generation, which has been overlooked in previous studies.
