Highly Efficient and Robust Photocatalytic Systems for CO2 Reduction Consisting of a Cu(I) Photosensitizer and Mn(I) Catalysts

Abstract

Summary

A photochemical reduction of CO₂ to CO was shown using the manganese complex [Ni(bpet)(MeCN)2][ClO4]2 as catalyst in combination with the copper-based photosensitizer [Cu(phen)-(dPPh-Bu)2]2[PF6]2. Turnover numbers (TONs) over 1300 were reached in xx. The experiments were conducted under visible-light irradiation (λ = 436 nm) using BIH as sacrificial reductants (see section SEDs below).

Content of the published article in detail
