Abstract
Visible-light-driven catalytic reduction of CO2 is at the heart of artificial photosynthesis. Here, we demonstrate the first example of a Ru complex that can function both as a photosensitizer and catalyst for CO2 reduction. The catalyst exhibited excellent activity for CO evolution with a high turnover number (TON, 353 for 24 h), reaction rate (TOF, 14.7 h-1), and product selectivity (97%) under visible-light irradiation. We also succeeded in selective product formation (CO or HCOOH) by changing the basicity of the reaction media. This finding will open new avenues for visible-light-driven photoredox catalysis using Ru-based function-integrated photocatalysts.Entities:
