Article Synopsis
- The greenhouse effect caused by carbon dioxide (CO2) is a critical global issue, prompting research into converting CO2 to methyl alcohol (CH3OH) using catalytic methods.
- A honeycomb-typed monolith was utilized as a catalyst support, which underwent both thermal and acid treatment to enhance its surface properties.
- Experiments indicated that while higher temperatures improved CO2 conversion in the hydrogenation process, they reduced selectivity for CH3OH, with optimal results achieved at around 250 degrees Celsius and 20 atm pressure.

Platinum complexes [Pt(bpy)Cl2](bpy: 2,2'-bipyridine) and [Pt(PT)Cl2](PT: 1,10-phenantroline) were reacted with 5,5"-(9,9-dioctyl-9H-fluorene-2,7-diyl)bis(2,2'-bipyrine), bpy-spiro-bpy, to afford mono and diplatinium complexes: [(bpy)Pt(bpy-spiro-bpy)][PF6]2, [(bpy)Pt(bpy-spiro-bpy)Pt(bpy)])[PF6]4, and [(PT)Pt(bpy-spiro-bpy)])][PF6]2, which were characterized by NMR, UV/VIS, mass spectrum, and PL spectroscopy. They showed very high internal quantum yields (0.35-0.

These complexes were characterized by NMR, IR, UV/VIS, PL and cyclic voltammetry. In the 13C-NMR spectra of 3 and 4, the carbon peaks of the Schiff Bases (>C=N-) were shifted to lower fields, and emissions were observed at 689 and 693 nm with quantum yields of 0.
