Room-Temperature Synthesis of Covalently Bridged MOP@TpPa-CH Composite Photocatalysts for Artificial Photosynthesis.

The conversion of CO into useful chemicals via photocatalysts is a promising strategy for resolving the environmental problems caused by the addition of CO. Herein, a series of composite photocatalysts MOP@TpPa-CH based on MOP-NH and TpPa-CH through covalent bridging have been prepared via a facile room-temperature evaporation method and employed for photocatalytic CO reduction. The photocatalytic performances of MOP@TpPa-CH are greater than those of TpPa-CH and MOP-NH, where the CO generation rate of MOP@TpPa-CH under 10% CO still reaches 119.
