Abstract
The highly selective conversion of carbon dioxide into value-added products is extremely valuable. However, even with the aid of in situ characterization techniques, it remains challenging to directly correlate extensive spectral data carrying microscopic information with macroscopic performance. Herein, we adopted advanced machine learning (ML) approaches to establish an accurate and interpretable relationship between vibrational spectral signals and catalytic performances to uncover hidden physical insights. Focusing on photocatalytic CO2 reduction, our model is shown to effectively and accurately predict the CO production activity and selectivity based solely on the infrared (IR) spectral signals, the generalizability of which is additionally demonstrated with a new Bi5O7I photocatalytic system. More importantly, further model analysis has revealed a novel strategy to steer CO selectivity, the physical sanity of which is verified by a detailed reaction mechanism analysis. This work demonstrates the tremendous potential of machine-learned spectroscopy to efficiently identify reaction control factors, which can further lay the foundation for targeted optimization and reverse design.

Highly selective photocatalytic CO 2 reduction into C 2H 4 enabled by metal-organic framework-derived catalysts with high Cu + content. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 677:872-881. [PMID: 39173519 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.08.114] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 08/02/2024] [Accepted: 08/14/2024] [Indexed: 08/24/2024]
Abstract
The highly selective conversion of CO2 into valuable C2H4 is a highly important but particularly challenging reaction. Herein, the metal-organic frameworks MOF-74(Cu) with infinite Cu(II)-O chains and Cu-BTC (BTC=benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate) with paddle-wheel binuclear Cu(II) clusters are used as precursors. These MOFs are reduced by NaBH4 to obtain Cu0/Cuδ+-based photocatalysts denoted as R-MOF-74(Cu) and R-Cu-BTC, respectively. Significantly, R-MOF-74(Cu) achieves a high selectivity of 90.2 % for C2H4 with a yield rate of 6.5 μmol g-1 within 5 h due to its high Cu+ content. To the best of our knowledge, this C2H4 product selectivity is a record high among all the photocatalysts reported so far for photocatalytic CO2 reduction. In contrast, R-Cu-BTC only forms CO as a product with a cumulative yield of 0.7 μmol g-1 within 5 h. Photoelectrochemical characterization and electron paramagnetic resonance results show that R-MOF-74(Cu) has low interfacial transfer resistance, high photogenerated electron separation efficiency, and excellent CO2 activation and water oxidation performance. In addition, in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy is used to determine the possible reaction pathway from CO2 to C2H4 over R-MOF-74(Cu). This work demonstrates the great potential of MOF-derived photocatalysts for the conversion of CO2 into C2H4 and provides guidance for future photocatalyst development.

Abstract
The bonding effects between 3d transition-metal single sites and supports originate from crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE). The 3d transition-metal atoms of the spontaneous geometrical distortions, that is the Jahn-Teller effect, can alter CFSE, thereby leading to the Irving-Williams series. However, engineering single-atom sites (SASs) using the Irving-Williams series as an ideal guideline has not been reported to date. Herein, alkynyl-linked covalent phenanthroline frameworks (CPFs) with phenanthroline units are developed to anchor the desired 3d single metal ions from d5 to d10 (Mn2+, Fe3+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+). The Irving-Williams series was employed to accurately predict the bonding effects between 3d transition-metal atoms and phenanthroline units. To verify this, theoretical calculations and experimental results reveal that Cu-SASs/CPFs exhibits higher stability and faster charge-transfer efficiency, far surpassing other metal-SASs/CPFs. As expected, Cu-SASs/CPFs demonstrates a high photoreduction of CO2-to-CO activity (~30.3 μmol ⋅ g-1 ⋅ h-1) and an exceptional photooxidation of CH3CHO-to-CH3COOH activity (~24.7 μmol ⋅ g-1 ⋅ h-1). Interestingly, the generated *O2 - is derived from the process of CO2 reduction, thereby triggering a CH3CHO oxidation reaction. This work provides a novel design concept for designing SASs by the Irving-Williams to regulate the catalytic performances.

Abstract
Selective CO2 photoreduction to C2 hydrocarbons is significant but limited by the inadequate adsorption strength of the reaction intermediates and low efficiency of proton transfer. Herein, an ameliorative *CO adsorption and H2O activation strategy is realized via decorating bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) nanostructures with different metal (Pt, Pd, and Au) species. Experimental and theoretical calculation results reveal that distinct *CO binding energies and *H acquisition abilities of the metal cocatalysts mediate the CO2 reduction activity and hydrocarbon selectivity. The relatively moderate *CO adsorption and *H supply over Pd/BiOCl endows it with the lowest free energy to generate *CHO, leading to its highest activity of hydrocarbon production. Specifically, the Pt cocatalyst can efficiently participate in H2O dissociation to deliver more *H for facilitating the protonation of the *CHO and *CHOH, thereby favoring CH4 production with 76.51% selectivity. A lower *H supply over Pd/BiOCl and Au/BiOCl results in a large energy barrier for *CHO or *CHOH protonation and thus a more thermodynamically favored OC─CHO coupling pathway, which endows them with vastly increased C2 hydrocarbon selectivity of 81.21% and 92.81%, respectively. The understanding of efficient C2 hydrocarbon production in this study sheds light on how materials can be engineered for photocatalytic CO2 reduction.

Abstract
Photocatalysts based on single atoms (SAs) modification can lead to unprecedented reactivity with recent advances. However, the deactivation of SAs-modified photocatalysts remains a critical challenge in the field of photocatalytic CO2 reduction. In this study, we unveil the detrimental effect of CO intermediates on Cu single atoms (Cu-SAs) during photocatalytic CO2 reduction, leading to clustering and deactivation on TiO2. To address this, we developed a novel Cu-SAs anchored on Au porous nanoparticles (CuAu-SAPNPs-TiO2) via a vectored etching approach. This system not only enhances CH4 production with a rate of 748.8 μmol ⋅ g-1 ⋅ h-1 and 93.1 % selectivity but also mitigates Cu-SAs clustering, maintaining stability over 7 days. This sustained high performance, despite the exceptionally high efficiency and selectivity in CH4 production, highlights the CuAu-SAPNPs-TiO2 overarching superior photocatalytic properties. Consequently, this work underscores the potential of tailored SAs-based systems for efficient and durable CO2 reduction by reshaping surface adsorption dynamics and optimizing the thermodynamic behavior of the SAs.

Abstract
The conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added chemicals with two or more carbons (C2+) is a promising strategy that cannot only mitigate anthropogenic CO2 emissions but also reduce the excessive dependence on fossil feedstocks. In recent years, atomically dispersed metal catalysts (ADCs), including single-atom catalysts (SACs), dual-atom catalysts (DACs), and single-cluster catalysts (SCCs), emerged as attractive candidates for CO2 fixation reactions due to their unique properties, such as the maximum utilization of active sites, tunable electronic structure, the efficient elucidation of catalytic mechanism, etc. This review provides an overview of significant progress in the synthesis and characterization of ADCs utilized in photocatalytic, electrocatalytic, and thermocatalytic conversion of CO2 toward high-value C2+ compounds. To provide insights for designing efficient ADCs toward the C2+ chemical synthesis originating from CO2, the key factors that influence the catalytic activity and selectivity are highlighted. Finally, the relevant challenges and opportunities are discussed to inspire new ideas for the generation of CO2-based C2+ products over ADCs.

Abstract
Over the past decades, CO2 greenhouse emission has been considerably increased, causing global warming and climate change. Indeed, converting CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels is a desired option to resolve issues caused by its continuous emission into the atmosphere. Nevertheless, CO2 conversion has been hampered by the ultrahigh dissociation energy of C=O bonds, which makes it thermodynamically and kinetically challenging. From this prospect, photocatalytic approaches appear promising for CO2 reduction in terms of their efficiency compared to other traditional technologies. Thus, many efforts have been made in the designing of photocatalysts with asymmetric sites and oxygen vacancies, which can break the charge distribution balance of CO2 molecule, reduce hydrogenation energy barrier and accelerate CO2 conversion into chemicals and fuels. Here, we review the recent advances in CO2 hydrogenation to C1 and C2 products utilizing photocatalysis processes. We also pin down the key factors or parameters influencing the generation of C2 products during CO2 hydrogenation. In addition, the current status of CO2 reduction is summarized, projecting the future direction for CO2 conversion by photocatalysis processes.

Abstract
Owing to the specific electronic-redistribution and spatial proximity, diatomic catalysts (DACs) have been identified as principal interest for efficient photoconversion of CO2 into C2H4. However, the predominant bottom-up strategy for DACs synthesis has critically constrained the development of highly ordered DACs due to the random distribution of heteronuclear atoms, which hinders the optimization of catalytic performance and the exploration of actual reaction mechanism. Here, an up-bottom ion-cutting architecture is proposed to fabricate the well-defined DACs, and the superior spatial proximity of CuAu diatomics (DAs) decorated TiO2 (CuAu-DAs-TiO2) is successfully constructed due to the compact heteroatomic spacing (2-3 Å). Owing to the profoundly low C-C coupling energy barrier of CuAu-DAs-TiO2, a considerable C2H4 production with superior sustainability is achieved. Our discovery inspires a novel up-bottom strategy for the fabrication of well-defined DACs to motivate optimization of catalytic performance and distinct deduction of heteroatom synergistically catalytic mechanism.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide conversion into valuable products using photocatalysis and electrocatalysis is an effective approach to mitigate global environmental issues and the energy shortages. Among the materials utilized for catalytic reduction of CO2, Cu-based materials are highly advantageous owing to their widespread availability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental sustainability. Furthermore, Cu-based materials demonstrate interesting abilities in the adsorption and activation of carbon dioxide, allowing the formation of C2+ compounds through C-C coupling process. Herein, the basic principles of photocatalytic CO2 reduction reactions (PCO2RR) and electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (ECO2RR) and the pathways for the generation C2+ products are introduced. This review categorizes Cu-based materials into different groups including Cu metal, Cu oxides, Cu alloys, and Cu SACs, Cu heterojunctions based on their catalytic applications. The relationship between the Cu surfaces and their efficiency in both PCO2RR and ECO2RR is emphasized. Through a review of recent studies on PCO2RR and ECO2RR using Cu-based catalysts, the focus is on understanding the underlying reasons for the enhanced selectivity toward C2+ products. Finally, the opportunities and challenges associated with Cu-based materials in the CO2 catalytic reduction applications are presented, along with research directions that can guide for the design of highly active and selective Cu-based materials for CO2 reduction processes in the future.

Abstract
Photocatalytic reduction of CO2 to high value-added multicarbon (C2+) products is an important way to achieve sustainable production of green energy but limited by the low efficiency of catalysts. One fundamental issue lies in the high complexity of catalyst structure and reaction process, making the rational catalyst design and targeted performance optimization a grand challenge. Herein, we performed a mechanism-guided design of photocatalysts for CO2 reduction by using the experimentally reported Cu doped TiO2 (Cu-TiO2) with high C3H8 selectivity and well-defined structure as the prototype. Our mechanistic study highlights three key factors for C3H8 formation, i.e., formation of double O vacancies (Vdi-O) for selectivity, C-C coupling for activity, and Vdi-O recovery for durability. More importantly, Vdi-O formation/recovery and C-C coupling are negatively correlated, indicating that ideal candidates should achieve a balance between oxygen vacancy (VO) formation and C-C coupling. On this basis, TiO2 with the doping of two adjacent Cu atoms (Cu-Cu-TiO2) was designed with enhanced performance for CO2 photoreduction toward C3H8. Furthermore, a simple descriptor (Nμ, "effective d electron number") based on inherent atomic properties was constructed to uncover the underlying causes of the performance variation of different systems. These results provide new insights into the "structure-performance" relation of metal oxide-based photocatalysts, thus offering useful strategies for the rational design of excellent catalysts for CO2 photoreduction.

Abstract
Photocatalytic CO2 reduction into ideal hydrocarbon fuels, such as CH4 , is a sluggish kinetic process involving adsorption of multiple intermediates and multi-electron steps. Achieving high CH4 activity and selectivity therefore remains a great challenge, which largely depends on the efficiency of photogenerated charge separation and transfer as well as the intermediate energy levels in CO2 reduction. Herein, we construct La and Cu dual-atom anchored carbon nitride (LaCu/CN), with La-N4 and Cu-N3 coordination bonds connected by Cu-N-La bridges. The asymmetric Cu-N-La species enables the establishment of an atomic-level donor-acceptor structure, which allows the migration of electrons from La atoms to the reactive Cu atom sites. Simultaneously, intermediates during CO2 reduction on LaCu/CN demonstrate thermodynamically more favorable process for CH4 formation based on theoretical calculations. Eventually, LaCu/CN exhibits a high selectivity (91.6 %) for CH4 formation with a yield of 125.8 μmol g-1 , over ten times of that for pristine CN. This work presents a strategy for designing multi-functional dual-atom based photocatalysts.

Abstract
Perovskite-based photocatalysts have received significant attention for converting CO2 into fuels, such as CO, CH4 or long alkyl chains. However, the use of these catalysts is plagued by several limitations, such as poor stability, lead toxicity, and inadequate conversion efficiency due to the rapid recombination of carriers. Herein, a g-C3N4@Cs2AgBiBr6 (CABB) type II heterojunction photocatalyst has been prepared by growing lead-free CABB nanocrystals (10-14 nm) on the graphite-like carbon nitride (g-C3N4) nanosheet using the in situ crystallization method. The resulting nanocomposite, g-C3N4@CABB, demonstrated an efficient charge transfer pathway via a typical type II heterojunction. With formation rates of 10.30 μmol g-1 h-1 for CO and 0.88 μmol g-1 h-1 for CH4 under visible light irradiation, the nanocomposite exhibited enhanced photocatalytic efficiency in CO2 reduction compared to CABB and g-C3N4. The improved photocatalytic performance of the g-C3N4@CABB nanocomposite was attributed to the fabricated type II heterojunction, which boosted the interfacial charge transfer from g-C3N4 to CABB. This work will inspire the design of heterojunction-based photocatalysts and increase the fundamental understanding of perovskite-based catalysts in the CO2 photoreduction process.

Abstract
Artificial photosynthetic diluted CO2 reduction directly driven by natural sunlight is a challenging, but promising way to realize carbon-resources recycling utilization. Herein, a three-in-one photocatalytic system of CO2 enrichment, CO2 reduction and H2 O oxidation sites is designed for diluted CO2 reduction. A Zn-Salen-based covalent organic framework (Zn-S-COF) with oxidation and reductive sites is synthesized; then, ionic liquids (ILs) are loaded into the pores. As a result, [Emim]BF4 @Zn-S-COF shows a visible-light-driven CO2 -to-CO conversion rate of 105.88 µmol g-1 h-1 under diluted CO2 (15%) atmosphere, even superior than most photocatalysts in high concentrations CO2 . Moreover, natural sunlight driven diluted CO2 reduction rate also reaches 126.51 µmol g-1 in 5 h. Further experiments and theoretical calculations reveal that the triazine ring in the Zn-S-COF promotes the activity of H2 O oxidation and CO2 reduction sites, and the loaded ILs provide an enriched CO2 atmosphere, realizing the efficient photocatalytic activity in diluted CO2 reduction.

Abstract
Lead halide perovskites are prospective candidates for CO2 photoconversion. Herein, we report copper-doped lead-free Cs2AgSbCl6 double perovskite microcrystals (MCs) for gas-solid phase photocatalytic CO2 reduction. The 0.2Cu@Cs2AgSbCl6 double perovskite MCs display unprecedented CO2 photoreduction capability with CO and CH4 yields of 412 and 128 μmol g-1, respectively. The ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy reveals the enhanced separation of photoexcited carriers in copper-doped Cs2AgSbCl6 MCs. The active sites and reaction intermediates on the surface of the doped Cs2AgSbCl6 are dynamically monitored and precisely unraveled based on the in-situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy investigation. In combination with density functional theory calculations, it is revealed that the copper-doped Cs2AgSbCl6 MCs facilitate sturdy CO2 adsorption and activation and strikingly enhance the photocatalytic performance. This work offers an in-depth interpretation of the photocatalytic mechanism of Cs2AgSbCl6 doped with copper, which may provide guidance for future design of high-performance photocatalysts for solar fuel production.

Abstract
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are widely used as brominated flame retardants, which had attracted amounts of attention due to their harmful characteristics of high toxicity, environmental persistence and potential bioaccumulation. Many chemical reductive debromination technologies have been developed for the debromination of PBDEs, including photolysis, photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, zero-valent metal reduction, chemically catalytic reduction and mechanochemical method. This review aims to provide information about the degradation thermodynamics and kinetics of PBDEs and summarize the degradation mechanisms in various systems. According to the comparative analysis, the rapid debromination to generate bromine-free products in an electron-transfer process, of which photocatalysis is a representative one, is found to be relatively difficult, because the degradation rate of PBDEs depended on the Br-rich phenyl ring with the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) localization. On the contrary, the complete debromination occurs easily in other systems with active hydrogen atoms as the main reactive species, such as chemically catalytic reduction systems. The review provides the knowledge on the chemical reductive technique of PBDEs, which would greatly help not only clarify the degradation mechanism but also design the more efficient system for the rapid and deep debromination of PBDEs in the future.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) hold the potential in converting CO2 with water into value-added fuels and O2 to save the deteriorating ecological environment. However, reaching high yield and selectivity is a grand challenge under metal-, photosensitizer-, or sacrificial reagent-free conditions. Here, inspired by microstructures of natural leaves, we designed triazine-based COF membranes with the integration of steady light-harvesting sites, efficient catalytic center, and fast charge/mass transfer configuration to fabricate a novel artificial leaf for the first time. Significantly, a record high CO yield of 1240 μmol g-1 in a 4 h reaction, approximately 100% selectivity, and a long lifespan (at least 16 cycles) were achieved under gas-solid conditions without using any metal, photosensitizer, or sacrificial reagent. Unlike the existing knowledge, the chemical structural unit of triazine-imide-triazine and the unique physical form of the COF membrane are predominant for such a remarkable photocatalysis. This work opens a new pathway to simulating photosynthesis in leaves and may motivate relevant research in the future.

Abstract
Cobalt coordinated covalent organic frameworks have attracted increasing interest in the field of CO2 photoreduction to CO, owing to their high electron affinity and predesigned structures. However, achieving high conversion efficiency is challenging since most Co related coordination environments facilitate fast recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs. Here, we design two kinds of Co-COF catalysts with oxygen coordinated Co atoms and find that after tuning of coordination environment, the reported Co framework catalyst with Co-O4 sites exhibits a high CO production rate of 18000 µmol g-1 h-1 with selectivity as high as 95.7% under visible light irradiation. From in/ex-situ spectral characterizations and theoretical calculations, it is revealed that the predesigned Co-O4 sites significantly facilitate the carrier migration in framework matrixes and inhibit the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs in the photocatalytic process. This work opens a way for the design of high-performance catalysts for CO2 photoreduction.

Abstract
Photochemical conversion of CO2 into high-value C2+ products is difficult to achieve due to the energetic and mechanistic challenges in forming multiple C-C bonds. Herein, an efficient photocatalyst for the conversion of CO2 into C3H8 is prepared by implanting Cu single atoms on Ti0.91O2 atomically-thin single layers. Cu single atoms promote the formation of neighbouring oxygen vacancies (VOs) in Ti0.91O2 matrix. These oxygen vacancies modulate the electronic coupling interaction between Cu atoms and adjacent Ti atoms to form a unique Cu-Ti-VO unit in Ti0.91O2 matrix. A high electron-based selectivity of 64.8% for C3H8 (product-based selectivity of 32.4%), and 86.2% for total C2+ hydrocarbons (product-based selectivity of 50.2%) are achieved. Theoretical calculations suggest that Cu-Ti-VO unit may stabilize the key *CHOCO and *CH2OCOCO intermediates and reduce their energy levels, tuning both C1-C1 and C1-C2 couplings into thermodynamically-favourable exothermal processes. Tandem catalysis mechanism and potential reaction pathway are tentatively proposed for C3H8 formation, involving an overall (20e- - 20H+) reduction and coupling of three CO2 molecules at room temperature.

Abstract
We reported a strategy of carbon-negative H2 production in which CO2 capture was coupled with H2 evolution at ambient temperature and pressure. For this purpose, carbonate-type Cux Mgy Fez layered double hydroxide (LDH) was preciously constructed, and then a photocatalysis reaction of interlayer CO3 2- reduction with glycerol oxidation was performed as driving force to induce the electron storage on LDH layers. With the participation of pre-stored electrons, CO2 was captured to recover interlayer CO3 2- in presence of H2 O, accompanied with equivalent H2 production. During photocatalysis reaction, Cu0.6 Mg1.4 Fe1 exhibited a decent CO evolution amount of 1.63 mmol g-1 and dihydroxyacetone yield of 3.81 mmol g-1 . In carbon-negative H2 production process, it showed an exciting CO2 capture quantity of 1.61 mmol g-1 and H2 yield of 1.44 mmol g-1 . Besides, this system possessed stable operation capability under simulated flu gas condition with negligible performance loss, exhibiting application prospect.

Abstract
Photocatalytic CO2 reduction to high value-added C2 products (e.g., C2 H4 ) is of considerable interest but challenging. The C2 H4 product selectivity strongly hinges on the intermediate energy levels in the CO2 reduction pathway. Herein, Cu-N4 sites anchored phosphorus-modulated carbon nitride (CuACs/PCN) is designed as a photocatalyst to tailor the intermediate energy levels in the the C2 H4 formation reaction pathway for realizing its high production with tunable selectivity. Theoretical calculations combined with experimental data demonstrate that the formation of the C-C coupling intermediates can be realized on Cu-N4 sites and the surrounding doped P facilitates the production of C2 H4 . Thus, CuACs/PCN exhibits a high C2 H4 selectivity of 53.2% with a yielding rate of 30.51 µmol g-1 . The findings reveal the significant role of the coordination environment and surrounding microenvironment of Cu single atoms in C2 H4 formation and offer an effective approach for highly selective CO2 photoreduction to produce C2 H4 .

Abstract
Colloidal quantum dots have been emerging as promising photocatalysts to convert CO2 into fuels by using solar energy. However, the above photocatalysts usually suffer from low CO2 adsorption capacity because of their nonporous structures, which principally reduces their catalytic efficiency. Here, we show that synchronizing imine polycondensation reaction to self-assembly of colloidal CdSe/CdS nanorods can produce micro-meso hierarchically porous nanocomposites with double-shelled nanocomposites. Owing to their hierarchical pores and the ability to separate photoexcited electrons, the self-assembled porous nanocomposites exhibit remarkably higher activity (≈ 64.6 μmol g−1 h−1) toward CO2 to CO in solid-gas regime than that of nonporous solids from self-assembled CdSe/CdS nanorods under identical conditions. Importantly, the length of the nanorods is demonstrated to be crucial to correlate their ability to long-distance separation of photogenerated electrons and holes along their axial direction. Overall, this approach provides a rational strategy to optimize the CO2 adsorption and conversion by integrating the inorganic and organic semiconductors. The authors design double shelled hollow superstructures from self-assembled CdSe/CdS nanorods in covalent organic frameworks for CO2 photo-reduction at a gas/solid interface.

Abstract
Due to the limited reserves of metals, scientists are devoted to exploring high-performance metal-free catalysts based on carbon materials to solve environment-related issues. Doping would build up inhomogeneous charge distribution on surface, which is an efficient approach for boosting the catalytic performance. However, doping sites are difficult to control in traditional carbon materials, thus hindering their development. Taking the advantage of unique sp-C in graphdiyne (GDY), a new N doping configuration of sp-hybridized nitrogen (sp-N), bringing a Pt-comparable catalytic activity in oxygen reduction reaction is site-defined introduced. However, the reaction intermediate of this process is never captured, hindering the understanding of the mechanism and the precise synthesis of metal-free catalysts. After the four-year study, the fabrication of intermediate-like molecule is realized, and finally sp-N doped GDY via the pericyclic reaction is obtained. Compared with GDY doped with other N configurations, the designed sp-N GDY shows much higher catalytic activity in electroreduction of CO2 toward CH4 production, owing to the unique electronic structure introduced by sp-N, which is more favorable in stabilizing the intermediate. Thus, besides opening the black-box for the site-defined doping, this work reveals the relationship between doping configuration and products of CO2 reduction.

Abstract
Photocatalytic CO2 conversion into high-value chemicals has been emerging as an attractive research direction in achieving carbon resource sustainability. The chemical products can be categorized into C1 and multi-carbon (C2+) products. In this review, we describe the recent research progress in photocatalytic CO2 conversion systems from C1 products to multi-carbon oxygenates, and analyze the reasons related to their catalytic mechanisms, as the production of multi-carbon oxygenates is generally more difficult than that of C1 products. Then we discuss several examples in promoting the photoconversion of CO2 to value-added multi-carbon products in the aspects of photocatalyst design, mass transfer control, determination of active sites, and intermediate regulation. Finally, we summarize perspectives on the challenges and propose potential directions in this fast-developing field, such as the prospect of CO2 transformation to long-chain hydrocarbons like salicylic acid or even plastics.

Abstract
In natural photosynthesis, the architecture of multiproteins integrates more chromophores than redox centers and simultaneously creates a well-controlled environment around the active site. Herein, we demonstrate that these features can be emulated in a prototype hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) through simply varying the proportion of metalated porphyrin in the structure. Further studies demonstrate that changing the metalloporphyrin content not only realizes a fine tuning of the photosensitizer/catalyst ratio, but also alters the microenvironment surrounding the active site and the charge separation efficiency. As a result, the obtained material achieves the challenging overall CO2 reduction with a high HCOOH production rate (29.8 μmol g-1 h-1 , scavenger free), standing out from existing competitors. This work unveils that the degree of metalation is vital to the catalytic activity of the porphryinic framework, presenting as a new strategy to optimize the performance of heterogeneous catalysts.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are considered a promising catalyst for photocatalytic CO2 reduction due to their broad photoresponse, facile channels for electron transfer, and the presence of abundant defects. Herein, we reported for the first time the fabrication of a novel photocatalyst MIL-100@NiMn-LDH with a hierarchical architecture by selecting MIL-100 (Mn) as a template to provide Mn3+ for the in situ growth of ultrathin NiMn-LDH nanosheets. Moreover, the in situ growth strategy exhibited excellent universality toward constructing MIL-100@LDH hierarchical architectures. When applied in the photocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction, the as-prepared MIL-100@NiMn-LDH exhibited excellent CH4 selectivity of 88.8% (2.84 μmol h-1), while the selectivity of H2 was reduced to 1.8% under visible light irradiation (λ > 500 nm). Such excellent catalytic performance can be attributed to the fact that (a) the MIL-100@NiMn-LDH hierarchical architectures with exposed catalytic active sites helped to enhance the CO2 adsorption and activation and (b) the presence of rich oxygen vacancies and coordinately unsaturated metal sites in MIL-100@NiMn-LDH that optimized the band gap and accelerated the separation/transport of photoinduced charges.

Abstract
Construction of higher C≥2 compounds from CO2 constitutes an attractive transformation inspired by nature's strategy to build carbohydrates. However, controlled C-C bond formation from carbon dioxide using environmentally benign reductants remains a major challenge. In this respect, reductive dimerization of CO2 to oxalate represents an important model reaction enabling investigations on the mechanism of this simplest CO2 coupling reaction. Herein, we present common pitfalls encountered in CO2 reduction, especially its reductive coupling, based on established protocols for the conversion of CO2 into oxalate. Moreover, we provide an example to systematically assess these reactions. Based on our work, we highlight the importance of utilizing suitable orthogonal analytical methods and raise awareness of oxidative reactions that can likewise result in the formation of oxalate without incorporation of CO2. These results allow for the determination of key parameters, which can be used for tailoring of prospective catalytic systems and will promote the advancement of the entire field.
