Abstract
Summary
A photochemical reduction of CO2 to CO or formic acid was shown using the manganese complexes as catalyst in combination with the ruthenium-based photosensitizer Ru(bpy)3Cl2. Turnover numbers (TONs) of 58 for formic acid were reached in xx. The experiments were conducted under visible-light irradiation (λ = xx nm) using TEOA and BNAH as sacrificial electron donors (see section SEDs below).
Advances and special progress
Additional remarks
In electrochemical CO2 reduction experiments, a selectivity for CO formation was observed, contrary to the preferential formation of formic acid in the photocatalytic CO2 reduction.
Content of the published article in detail
