Abstract: | The photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to energy-rich chemicals is highly appealing for alleviation of energy crisis and environment pollution. The introduction of different active sites is a key factor to determine the reaction activity and selectivity. Here, we demonstrate the metal ion-dependent performance for photocatalytic CO2 reduction by anchoring transition metal ions (Co2+ and Ni2+) in an amine-functionalized boron imidazolate framework (BIF-43). As a result, Ni@BIF-43 realized a high selectivity of 90.2% for the CO2-to-CO, while Co@BIF-43 achieved more efficient conversion with a high CO production rate of 2036.0 µmol g?1 h?1. Significantly, precise control of isolated metal site on a well-defined structure through coordination-assisted strategies enables us to better understand the specific effects of different metal-ion species on photoreduction of CO2 as well as the catalytic mechanism. |
