Development of an Efficient Photocatalytic System for CO2 Reduction Using Rhenium(I) Complexes Based on Mechanistic Studies

TL;DR: The most efficient photocatalytic system was successfully developed using a mixed system with fac-[Re(bpy)(CO)3(CH3CN)]+ and fac-[4,4'-(MeO)2bpy}( CO)3{P(OEt)3}]+, for which the optimized quantum yield for CO formation was 0.59.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visible‐Light‐Driven CO2 Reduction with Carbon Nitride: Enhancing the Activity of Ruthenium Catalysts

TL;DR: A heterogeneous photocatalyst system that consists of a ruthenium complex and carbon nitride (C3N4), which act as the catalytic and light-harvesting units, respectively, was developed for the reduction of CO2 into formic acid with good results under visible-light irradiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrons, Photons, Protons and Earth-Abundant Metal Complexes for Molecular Catalysis of CO2 Reduction

TL;DR: In this article, the most recent advances related to these issues are discussed in this review, and key parameters controlling the catalysis efficiency have been deciphered, opening the way to the design of future, more efficient and durable catalysts, as well as to the development of electrochemical or photoelectrochemical cells, all being key steps for the emergence of applied devices.
