Abstract
Perovskite CsPbBr3 quantum dot shows great potential in artificial photosynthesis, attributed to its outstanding optoelectronic properties. Nevertheless, its photocatalytic activity is hindered by insufficient catalytic active sites and severe charge recombination. In this work, a CsPbBr3@Ag-C3N4 ternary heterojunction photocatalyst is designed and synthesized for high-efficiency CO2 reduction. The CsPbBr3 quantum dots and Ag nanoparticles are chemically anchored on the surface of g-C3N4 sheets, forming an electron transfer tunnel from CsPbBr3 quantum dots to Ag nanoparticles via g-C3N4 sheets. The resulting CsPbBr3@Ag-C3N4 ternary photocatalyst, with spatial separation of photogenerated carriers, achieves a remarkable conversion rate of 19.49 μmol·g-1·h-1 with almost 100 % CO selectivity, a 3.13-fold enhancement in photocatalytic activity as compared to CsPbBr3 quantum dots. Density functional theory calculations reveal the rapid CO2 adsorption/activation and the decreased free energy (0.66 eV) of *COOH formation at the interface of Ag nanoparticles and g-C3N4 in contrast to the g-C3N4, leading to the excellent photocatalytic activity, while the thermodynamically favored CO desorption contributes to the high CO selectivity. This work presents an innovative strategy of constructing perovskite-based photocatalyst by modulating catalyst structure and offers profound insights for efficient CO2 conversion.

Abstract
As an alternative to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production by complex anthraquinone oxidation process, photosynthesis of H2O2 from water and oxygen without sacrificial agents is highly demanded. Herein, a covalently connected molecular heterostructure is synthesized via sequential C-H arylation and Knoevenagel polymerization reactions for visible-light and sacrificial-agent-free H2O2 synthesis. The subsequent copolymerization of the electron-deficient benzodithiophene-4,8-dione (BTD) and the electron-rich biphenyl (B) and p-phenylenediacetonitrile (CN) not only expands the π-conjugated domain but also increases the molecular dipole moment, which largely promotes the separation and transfer of the photoinduced charge carriers. The optimal heterostructured BTDB-CN0.2 manifested an impressive photocatalytic H2O2 production rate of 1920 μmol g-1 h-1, which is 2.2 and 11.6 times that of BTDB and BTDCN. As revealed by the femtosecond transient absorption (fs-TA) and theoretical calculations, the linkage serves as a channel for the rapid transfer of photogenerated charge carriers, enhancing the photocatalytic efficiency. Further, in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) uncovers that the oxygen reduction reaction occurs through the step one-electron pathway and the mutual conversion between C=O and C-OH with the anchoring of H+ during the catalysis favored the formation of H2O2. This work provides a novel perspective for the design of efficient organic photocatalysts.

Abstract
The design and intentional construction of crystalline materials containing two clusters with redox properties in one framework still remains challenging. Linking oxidative polyoxometalate (POM) clusters and a reductive cyclic trinuclear copper complex (Cu-CTC) to prepare stable catalysts is rarely reported. Herein, we successfully obtained two new polyoxometalate-based metal-organic compounds (POMOCs) [CuII3(PyCA)3(μ3-OH)(β-Mo8O26)0.5(H2O)2]·5H2O (1), [CuII3(PyCA)3(μ3-OH)]2(CuIIW12O40)[CuII(H2O)6] (2) (PyCA = 1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde) by enabling precursors of Cu-CTC and POM cocrystallization in one pot via hydrothermal method. The [β-Mo8O26]4- cluster in compound 1 combined with Cu-CTC units to form a 1D structure, and the [CuW12O40]6- unit in compound 2 linked two Cu-CTC units to form a sandwich-like 0D structure. Also, Cu-CTC CuI3(PyCA)3·H2O (Cu3) was synthesized for performance comparison. A series of characterizations indicate that compound 1 is more conducive to electron transfer than compound 2. In addition, compounds 1 and 2 can act as bifunctional catalysts for the electrochemical detection and photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI). Particularly, the photoreduction rates of Cr(VI) by compounds 1 and 2 are 96.7% and 96.3% for only 10 and 14 min under visible light, respectively, and it is better than that of Cu3 and most other reported photocatalysts. Furthermore, the active sites and mechanisms for electrochemical detection and photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) were discussed.

Abstract
Precise manipulation of the coordination configuration within substances can modulate the band structure and catalytic properties of the target material. Metal-covalent organic frameworks (MCOFs), a crystal material amalgamating the benefits of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs), can integrate a predetermined coordination environment into the frameworks for amplifying the catalytic effect. In this study, we delicately synthesize isomeric MCOFs using bis(glycinato)copper as the aminoligand via kinetically and thermodynamically favorable pathways to yield cis-MCOF and trans-MCOF products, respectively, thereby introducing a cis-trans isomeric coordination field into the framework. Moreover, the twisted skeleton derived from the flexibility of amino acid and β-ketoenamine linkages endows trans-MCOF with surprising water dispersibility. Compared to cis-MCOF, the trans isomerism displays a significant enhancement in cathodic electrochemiluminescence via the catalysis of Cu nodes toward K2S2O8. The density of states analysis shows that the d-band center of trans-MCOF is closer to the Fermi level, leading to more stable adsorption binding to promote the catalysis. This study is the first report on constructing predesign coordination configuration MCOFs via an easy-handling method, which gives the guidelines for the design of amino acid-based MCOF materials.

Abstract
Selective capture of palladium (Pd) is one of the important works in science due to its high application and low content in the Earth's crust. To this end, we present herein a new Cu(I)-organic framework (ECUT-MOF-1) by introducing pyridine N active sites to chelate Pd(II). ECUT-MOF-1 demonstrated that the maximal adsorption capacity of Pd(II) was 350 mg/g in pH = 3 solution. In addition, kinetic analysis, cycle performance, selectivity, and adsorption mechanisms were also investigated. All of the results suggested its superior application in the recovery of Pd(II).

Abstract
The dilemma between the thickness and accessible active site triggers the design of porous crystalline materials with mono-layered structure for advanced photo-catalysis applications. Here, a kind of sub-nanometer mono-layered nanosheets (Co-MOF MNSs) through the exfoliation of specifically designed Co3 cluster-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is reported. The sub-nanometer thickness and inherent light-sensitivity endow Co-MOF MNSs with fully exposed Janus Co3 sites that can selectively photo-reduce CO2 into formic acid under simulated flue gas. Notably, the production efficiency of formic acid by Co-MOF MNSs (0.85 mmol g-1 h-1) is ≈13 times higher than that of the bulk counterpart (0.065 mmol g-1 h-1) under a simulated flue gas atmosphere, which is the highest in reported works up to date. Theoretical calculations prove that the exposed Janus Co3 sites with simultaneously available sites possess higher activity when compared with single Co site, validating the importance of mono-layered nanosheet morphology. These results may facilitate the development of functional nanosheet materials for CO2 photo-reduction in potential flue gas treatment.

Abstract
Photothermal conversion represents one crucial approach for solar energy harvesting and its exploitation as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels; however, an efficient, cost-effective, and generalized approach to enhance the photothermal conversion processes is still missing. Herein, we develop a feasible and efficient photothermal conversion strategy that achieves simultaneous light and heat management using supported metal clusters and WSe2 interlayer toward enhanced CO2 hydrogenation photothermal catalysis. The interlayer can simultaneously reduce heat loss in the catalytic layer and improve light absorption, leading to an 8-fold higher CO2 conversion rate than the controls. The optical and thermal performance of WSe2 interlayered catalysts on different substrates was quantified using Raman spectroscopy. This work demonstrates a feasible and generalized approach for effective light and heat management in solar harvesting. It also provides important design guidelines for efficient photothermal converters that facilitate the remediation of the energy and environmental crises faced by humans.

Abstract
Solid electrolytes with high ionic conductivity and satisfactory electrochemical stability are essential for the development of solid-state batteries. However, current strategies, including polymer (and polymer-based composite) electrolytes, still face challenges in meeting the bar set by real operations. We seek to improve the Li-ion conduction of the electrolytes by incorporating mesoporous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into the polymer matrix. Specifically, MOFs with pores larger than 3.0 nm are constructed by three-component reactions that involve the construction of both coordinative and dynamic imine linkages. The MOFs allow polymer penetration and amorphization and efficient lithium salt dissociation in the confined channels. Numerous metal sites and organic functionalities in the MOF backbone further assist the ion migration by providing strong interactions with the fluorinated polymer and the Li+. Remarkable ionic conductivity (0.95 mS cm-1) and a large lithium transference number (0.64) are achieved. Overall, the study fully utilizes both the MOF structural units with atomic precision and the encompassed space at the mesoscale for solid-state electrolyte development.

Abstract
The integration of oxidation and reduction half-reactions to amplify their synergy presents a considerable challenge in CO2 photoconversion. Addressing this challenge requires the construction of spatially adjacent redox sites while suppressing charge recombination at these sites. This study introduces an innovative approach that utilizes spatial synergy to enable synergistic redox reactions within atomic proximity and employs spin polarization to inhibit charge recombination. We incorporate Mn into Co3O4 as a catalyst, in which Mn sites tend to enrich holes as water activation sites, while adjacent Co sites preferentially capture electrons to activate CO2, forming a spatial synergy. The direct H transfer from H2O at Mn sites facilitates the formation of *COOH on adjacent Co sites with remarkably favorable thermodynamic energy. Notably, the incorporation of Mn induces spin polarization in the system, significantly suppressing the recombination of photogenerated charges at redox sites. This effect is further enhanced by applying an external magnetic field. By synergizing spatial synergy and spin polarization, Mn/Co3O4 exhibits a CH4 production rate of 23.4 μmol g-1 h-1 from CO2 photoreduction, showcasing a 28.8 times enhancement over Co3O4. This study first introduces spin polarization to address charge recombination issues at spatially adjacent redox sites, offering novel insights for synergistic redox photocatalytic systems.

Abstract
Porphyrin-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are ideal platforms for heterogeneous photocatalysts toward CO2 reduction. To further explore photocatalytic MOF systems, it is also necessary to consider their ability to fine-tune the microenvironments of the active sites, which affects their overall catalytic operation. Herein, a kind of ionic liquid (IL, here is 3-butyric acid-1-methyl imidazolium bromide, BAMeImBr) was anchored to iron-porphyrinic Zr-MOFs with different amounts to obtain ILx@MOF-526 (MOF-526 = Zr6O4(OH)4(FeTCBPP)3, FeTCBPP = iron 5,10,15,20-tetra[4-(4'-carboxyphenyl)phenyl]-porphyrin, x = 100, 200, and 400). ILx@MOF-526 series was designed to investigate the effects of the microenvironmental and electronic structural modification on the efficiency and selectivity of the photochemical reduction of CO2 after introducing IL fragments. Compared to parent MOF-526, the production and selectivity of CO were greatly improved in the absence of any photosensitizer under visible light by the ILx@MOF-526 series. Among them, the CO yield of IL200@MOF-526 was up to 14.0 mmol g-1 within 72 h with a remarkable CO selectivity of 97%, which is superior to that of MOF-526 without BAMeIm+ modification and other amounts of BAMeIm+ loaded. Furthermore, density functional theory calculations were performed to study the mechanism of the CO2 reduction.

Abstract
We report a solvothermal method for the synthesis of an oxygen vacancy-enriched ZrO2 photocatalyst with Co single atoms and Ni clusters immobilized on the surface. This catalyst presents superior performance for the reduction of CO2 in H2O vapor, with a CO yield reaching 663.84 μmol g-1 h-1 and a selectivity of 99.52%. The total solar-to-chemical energy conversion efficiency is up to 0.372‰, which is among the highest reported values. The success, on one hand, depends on the Co single atoms and Ni clusters for both extended spectrum absorption and serving as dual-active centers for CO2 reduction and H2O dissociation, respectively; on the other hand, this is attributed to the enhanced photoelectric and thermal effect induced by concentrated solar irradiation. We demonstrate that an intermediate impurity state is formed by the hybridization of the d-orbital of single-atom Co with the molecular orbital of H2O, enabling visible-light-driven excitation over the catalyst. In addition, Ni clusters play a crucial role in altering the adsorption configuration of CO2, with the localized surface plasmon resonance effect enhancing the activation and dissociation of CO2 induced by visible-near-infrared light. This study provides valuable insights into the synergistic effect of the dual cocatalyst toward both efficient photothermal coupling and surface redox reactions for solar CO2 reduction.

Abstract
Hydrazone-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with structural flexibility, heteroatomic sites, post-modification ability and high hydrolytic stability have attracted great attention from scientific community. Hydrazone-linked COFs, as a subclass of Schiff-base COFs, was firstly reported in 2011 by Yaghi's group and later witnessed prosperous development in various aspects. Their adjustable structures, precise pore channels and plentiful heteroatomic sites of hydrazone-linked structures possess much potential in diverse applications, for example, adsorption/separation, chemical sensing, catalysis and energy storage, etc. Up to date, the systematic reviews about the reported hydrazone-linked COFs are still rare. Therefore, in this review, we will summarize their preparation methods, characteristics and related applications, and discuss the opportunity or challenge of hydrazone-linked COFs. We hope this review could provide new insights about hydrazone-linked COFs for exploring more appealing functions or applications.

Abstract
The catalytic performance for electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) depends on the binding strength of the reactants and intermediates. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have been adopted to catalyze CO2RR, and their binding abilities are tuned via constructing donor-acceptor (DA) systems. However, most DA COFs have single donor and acceptor units, which caused wide-range but lacking accuracy in modulating the binding strength of intermediates. More elaborate regulation of the interactions with intermediates are necessary and challenge to construct high-efficiency catalysts. Herein, the three-component COF with D-A-A units was first constructed by introducing electron-rich diarylamine unit, electron-deficient benzothiazole and Co-porphyrin units. Compared with two-component COFs, the designed COF exhibit elevated electronic conductivity, enhanced reducibility, high efficiency charge transfer, further improving the electrocatalytic CO2RR performance with the faradic efficiency of 97.2 % at -0.8 V and high activity with the partial current density of 27.85 mA cm-2 at -1.0 V which exceed other two-component COFs. Theoretical calculations demonstrate that catalytic sites in three-component COF have suitable binding ability of the intermediates, which are benefit for formation of *COOH and desorption of *CO. This work offers valuable insights for the advancement of multi-component COFs, enabling modulated charge transfer to improve the CO2RR activity.

Abstract
We report, for the first time, a new synthetic strategy for the preparation of crystalline two-dimensional olefin-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) based on aldol condensation between benzodifurandione and aromatic aldehydes. Olefin-linked COFs can be facilely crystallized through either a pyridine-promoted solvothermal process or a benzoic anhydride-mediated organic flux synthesis. The resultant COF leaf with high in-plane π-conjugation exhibits efficient visible-light-driven photoreduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) with water (H2O) in the absence of any photosensitizer, sacrificial agents, or cocatalysts. The production rate of carbon monoxide (CO) reaches as high as 158.1 μmol g-1 h-1 with near 100% CO selectivity, which is accompanied by the oxidation of H2O to oxygen. Both theoretical and experimental results confirm that the key lies in achieving exceptional photoinduced charge separation and low exciton binding. We anticipate that our findings will facilitate new possibilities for the development of semiconducting COFs with structural diversity and functional variability.

Abstract
Lead (Pb) poisoning and CO2-induced global warming represent two exemplary environmental and energy issues threatening humanity. Various biomass-derived materials are reported to take up Pb and convert CO2 electrochemically into low-valent carbon species, but these works address the problems separately rather than settle the issues simultaneously. In this work, cheap, natural ellagic acid (EA) extracted from common plants is adopted to assemble a stable metal-organic framework (MOF), EA-Pb, by effective capture of Pb2+ ions in an aqueous medium (removal rate close to 99%). EA-Pb represents the first structurally well-defined Pb-based MOF showing selective electrocatalytic CO2-to-HCOO- conversion with Faradaic efficiency (FE) of 95.37% at -1.08 V versus RHE. The catalytic mechanism is studied by 13CO2 labeling, in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS), and theoretical calculation. The use of EA-Pb as an electrocatalyst for CO2 reduction represents a 2-in-1 solution of converting detrimental wastes (Pb2+) as well as natural resources (EA) into wealth (electrocatalytic EA-Pb) for addressing the global warming issue.

Abstract
The application of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) for the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 is mostly limited by severe charge recombination and low sunlight utilization. Herein, a triazine-based COF with an electron-rich and large π-conjugated system (TCOF) was employed as a building block and integrated with CuInS2 (CIS) to construct a noble-metal-free and high-efficiency photocatalyst for CO2 reduction. The in situ growth of CIS nanosheets on TCOF creates a p-n heterojunction, named CIS@TCOF. Compared with TCOF, the CIS@TCOF heterostructure exhibits a dramatically boosted photocatalytic performance in the reduction of CO2. The produced HCOOH yield over 10 wt % CIS@TCOF can be up to 171.2 μmol g-1 h-1 under visible light irradiation with good reproducibility, which is about 3 times as high as that over TCOF. Further in-depth studies indicate that the introduction of CIS not only enhances the visible light utilization but also restrains the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs efficiently and facilitates the photoinduced charge transfer via the p-n heterojunction system due to the unique structural and compositional features. This research shows the great potential of COFs as efficient photocatalytic carbon fixation materials and provides a versatile route to construct semiconductor-COF heterostructures for photocatalysis.

Abstract
ConspectusTo cope with the increasingly global greenhouse effect and energy shortage, it is urgent to develop a feasible means to convert anthropogenic excess carbon dioxide (CO2) into energy resources. The photocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) coupled with the water oxidation reaction (WOR), known as artificial photosynthesis, is a green, clean, and promoting strategy to deal with the above issues. Among the reported photocatalytic systems for CO2 reduction, the main challenge is to achieve WOR simultaneously due to the limited charge separation efficiency and complicated dynamic process. To address the problem, scientists have assembled two nanosemiconductor motifs for CO2RR and WOR into a heterojunction photocatalyst to realize artificial photosynthesis. However, it is difficult to clearly explore the corresponding catalytic mechanism and establish an accurate structure-activity relationship at the molecular level for their aperiodic distribution and complicated structural information. Standing on the shoulders of the heterojunction photocatalysts, a new-generation material, hetero-motif molecular junction (HMMJ) photocatalysts, has been developed and studied by our laboratory. A hetero-motif molecular junction is a class of crystalline materials with a well-defined and periodic structure, adjustable assembly mode, and semiconductor-like properties, which is composed of two predesigned motifs with oxidation and reduction, respectively, by coordination or covalent bonds. The intrinsic properties make these catalysts susceptible to functional modifications to improve light absorption and electrical conductivity. The small size and short distance of the motifs can greatly promote the efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole separation and migration. Based on these advantages, they can be used as potential excellent photocatalysts for artificial photosynthesis. Notably, the explicit structural information determined by single-crystal or powder X-ray diffraction can provide a visual platform to explore the reaction mechanism. More importantly, the connection number, spatial distance, interaction, and arrangement mode of the structural motifs can be well-designed to explore the detailed structure-activity relationship that can be hardly studied in nanoheterojunction photocatalyst systems. In this regard, HMMJ photocatalysts can be a new frontier in artificial photosynthesis and serve as an important bridge between molecular photocatalysts and solid photocatalysts. Thus, it is very important to summarize the state-of-the-art of the HMMJ photocatalysts used for artificial photosynthesis and to give in-depth insight to promote future development.In this Account, we have summarized the recent advances in artificial photosynthesis using HMMJ photocatalysts, mainly focusing on the results in our lab. We present an overview of current knowledge about developed photocatalytic systems for artificial photosynthesis, introduce the design schemes of the HMMJ photocatalysts and their unique advantages as compared to other photocatalysts, summarize the construction strategies of HMMJ photocatalysts and their application in artificial photosynthesis, and explain why hetero-motif molecular junctions can be promising photocatalysts and show that they provide a powerful platform for studying photocatalysis.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with high porosity have garnered considerable interest for various applications owing to their robust and customizable structure. However, conventional COFs are hindered by their narrow pore size, which poses limitations for applications such as heterogeneous catalysis and guest delivery that typically involve large molecules. The development of hierarchically porous COF (HP-COF), featuring a multi-scale aperture distribution, offers a promising solution by significantly enhancing the diffusion capacity and mass transfer for larger molecules. This review focuses on the recent advances in the synthesis strategies of HP-COF materials, including topological structure design, in-situ templating, monolithic COF synthesis, defect engineering, and crystalline self-transformation. The specific operational principles and affecting factors in the synthesis process are summarized and discussed, along with the applications of HP-COFs in heterogeneous catalysis, toxic component treatment, optoelectronics, and the biomedical field. Overall, this review builds a bridge to understand HP-COFs and provides guidance for further development of them on synthesis strategies and applications.

Abstract
Controllable methanol production in artificial photosynthesis is highly desirable due to its high energy density and ease of storage. Herein, single atom Fe is implanted into TiO2 /SrTiO3 (TSr) nanotube arrays by two-step anodization and Sr-induced crystallization. The resulting Fe-TSr with both single Fe reduction centers and dominant oxidation facets (001) contributes to efficient CO2 photoreduction and water oxidation for controlled production of CH3 OH and CO/CH4 . The methanol yield can reach to 154.20 µmol gcat -1 h-1 with 98.90% selectivity by immersing all the catalyst in pure water, and the yield of CO/CH4 is 147.48 µmol gcat -1 h-1 with >99.99% selectivity when the catalyst completely outside water. This CH3 OH yield is 50 and 3 times higher than that of TiO2 and TSr and stands among all the state-of-the-art catalysts. The facile gas-solid and gas-liquid-solid phase switch can selectively control CH3 OH production from ≈0% (above H2 O) to 98.90% (in H2 O) via slowly immersing the catalyst into water, where abundant •OH and H2 O around Fe sites play important role in selective CH3 OH production. This work highlights a new insight for water-mediated CO2 photoreduction to controllably produce CH3 OH.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202317852.

Abstract
One-unit-cell, single-crystal, hexagonal CuInP2 S6 atomically thin sheets of≈0.81 nm in thickness was successfully synthesized for photocatalytic reduction of CO2 . Exciting ethene (C2 H4 ) as the main product was dominantly generated with the yield-based selectivity reaching ≈56.4 %, and the electron-based selectivity as high as ≈74.6 %. The tandem synergistic effect of charge-enriched Cu-In dual sites confined on the lateral edge of the CuInP2 S6 monolayer (ML) is mainly responsible for efficient conversion and high selectivity of the C2 H4 product as the basal surface site of the ML, exposing S atoms, can not derive the CO2 photoreduction due to the high energy barrier for the proton-coupled electron transfer of CO2 into *COOH. The marginal In site of the ML preeminently targets CO2 conversion to *CO under light illumination, and the *CO then migrates to the neighbor Cu sites for the subsequent C-C coupling reaction into C2 H4 with thermodynamic and kinetic feasibility. Moreover, ultrathin structure of the ML also allows to shorten the transfer distance of charge carriers from the interior onto the surface, thus inhibiting electron-hole recombination and enabling more electrons to survive and accumulate on the exposed active sites for CO2 reduction.

Abstract
Nanomedicines are extensively used in cancer therapy. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are crystalline organic porous materials with several benefits for cancer therapy, including porosity, design flexibility, functionalizability, and biocompatibility. This review examines the use of COFs in cancer therapy from the perspective of reticular chemistry and function-oriented materials design. First, the modification sites and functionalization methods of COFs are discussed, followed by their potential as multifunctional nanoplatforms for tumor targeting, imaging, and therapy by integrating functional components. Finally, some challenges in the clinical translation of COFs are presented with the hope of promoting the development of COF-based anticancer nanomedicines and bringing COFs closer to clinical trials.

Abstract
The direct use of flue gas for the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction is desirable but severely limited by the thermodynamically favorable oxygen reduction reaction. Herein, a photonicswitching unit 1,2-Bis(5'-formyl-2'-methylthien-3'-yl)cyclopentene (DAE) is integrated into a cobalt porphyrin-based covalent organic framework for highly efficient CO2 electrocatalysis under aerobic environment. The DAE moiety in the material can reversibly modulate the O2 activation capacity and electronic conductivity by the framework ring-closing/opening reactions under UV/Vis irradiation. The DAE-based covalent organic framework with ring-closing type shows a high CO Faradaic efficiency of 90.5% with CO partial current density of -20.1 mA cm-2 at -1.0 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode by co-feeding CO2 and 5% O2. This work presents an oxygen passivation strategy to realize efficient CO2 electroreduction performance by co-feeding of CO2 and O2, which would inspire to design electrocatalysts for the practical CO2 source such as flue gas from power plants or air.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic synthesis of amino acids provides a promising green and efficient pathway to manufacture the basic substances of life. Herein, reaction of 2,5-perfluroalkyl-terepthalohydrazide and tris(4-µ2 -O-carboxaldehyde-pyrazolato-N, N')-tricopper affords a crystalline trinuclear copper cluster-containing organic framework, named F-Cu3 -OF. Incorporation of abundant hydrophobic perfluroalkyl groups inside the channels of F-Cu3 -OF is revealed to successfully suppress the hydrogen evolution reaction via preventing H+ cation with large polarity from the framework of F-Cu3 -OF and in turn increasing the adsorption of other substrates with relatively small polarity like NO3 - and keto acids on the active sites. The copper atoms with short distance in the trinuclear copper clusters of F-Cu3 -OF enable simultaneous activization of NO3 - and keto acids, facilitating the following synergistic and efficient C─N coupling on the basis of in situ spectroscopic investigations together with theoretical calculation. Combination of these effects leads to efficient electroproduction of various amino acids including glycine, alanine, leucine, valine, and phenylalanine from NO3 - and keto acids with a Faraday efficiency of 42%-71% and a yield of 187-957 µmol cm-2 h-1 , representing the thus far best performance. This work shall be helpful for developing economical, eco-friendly, and high-efficiency strategy for the production of amino acids and other life substances.

Abstract
Bacterial infection poses a constant threat to human health. It is crucial to develop cost-effective and multifunctional solutions to combat bacteria. In this study, inspiration has been taken from artificial photosynthesis and a hydrogel containing a photocatalytic metal-organic cluster (MOC) has been creatively formulated for wound healing and antibacterial purposes. Complete photocatalytic cycles have been achieved by combining the oxidative Ti-center and the reductive Cu-center, in which reactive oxygen species (1 O2 and ·OH) have been generated. The MOC has the capability to eliminate Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) at a concentration of 40 µg mL-1 . In addition, the hydrogel formulation (H-MOC) has been applied to wounds infected with S. aureus, resulting in improved healing efficiency. This work presents an innovative approach to utilizing photocatalytic biomaterials as non-antibiotic medications.

Abstract
A cyclic trinuclear complex is synthesized from AgI and 1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde. Reticulation of the complex with 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)benzene through Schiff-base reaction affords a porous FDM-72 framework. Amine choice is systematically investigated as it may initiate metal reduction. This study proposes a new route and its amine selection criterion to synthesize Ag-based frameworks.

Abstract
Under the background of carbon neutrality, the direct conversion of greenhouse CO2 to high value added fuels and chemicals is becoming an important and promising technology. Among them, the generation of liquid C1 products (formic acid and methanol) has made great progress; nevertheless, it encounters the problem of how to use it efficiently to solve the overcapacity issue. In this review, we suggest that the catalytic transfer hydrogenation using formic acid and methanol as the hydrogen sources is a critical and potential route for the substitution for the fossil fuel-derived H2 to generate essential bulk and fine chemicals. We mainly focus on summarizing the recent progress of heterogeneous catalysts in such reactions, including thermal- and photo-catalytic processes. Finally, we also propose some challenges and opportunities for this development.

Abstract
Rational construction of strong electron-transfer materials remains a challenging task. Herein, we show a design rule for the construction of strong electron-transfer materials through covalently integrating electron-donoring Cu(I) clusters and electron-withdrawing triazine monomers together. As expected, Cu-CTF-1 (Cu(I)-triazine framework) was found to enable strong electron transfer up to 0.46|e| from each Cu(I) metal center to each adjacent triazine fragment. This finally leads to good spatial separation in both photogenerated electron-hole pairs and function units for photocatalytic uranium reduction under ambience and no sacrificial agent and to good charge separation of [I+][I5-] for I2 immobilization under extremely rigorous conditions. The results have not only opened up a structural design principle to access electron-transfer materials but also solved several challenging tasks in the field of radionuclide capture and CTFs.

Abstract
Artificial photoenzymatic systems based on covalent organic frameworks (COFs) provide an interesting platform for converting CO2 to value-added fuels. However, the dual roles of COFs as photocatalysts and enzyme hosts showcase contradictory preferences for structures, which poses a great challenge for their rational design. Herein, we report the collaborative matching of linkages and linkers in COFs on their ability to exert both photocatalytic activity and enzyme loading, which has been neglected until now. The linkage-dependent linker regulation pattern was elucidated, and the optimal match showed a record-breaking apparent quantum efficiency at 420 nm for photocatalytic cofactor regeneration of 13.95% with a high turnover frequency of 5.3 mmol g-1 h-1, outperforming other reported crystalline framework photocatalysts. Moreover, theoretical calculations and experiments revealed the mechanism underlying the effects of matching the linkage and linker on exciton dissociation and charge migration in photocatalysis. This newfound understanding enabled the construction of COFs with both high photoactivity and large pores closer in size to the formate dehydrogenase, achieving high loading capacity and a suitable confinement effect. Remarkably, the artificial photoenzymatic system constructed according to optimal linkage-linker matching exhibited highly efficient CO2 reduction, yielding formic acid with a specific activity as high as 1.46 mmol g-1 catalyst h-1 and good reusability, paving the way for sustainable CO2 conversion driven by visible light.

Abstract
To alleviate the greenhouse effect and address the related energy crisis, solar-driven reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) to value-added products is considered as a sustainable strategy. However, the insufficient separation and rapid recombination of photogenerated charge carriers during photocatalysis greatly limit their reduction efficiency and practical application potential. Here, isolated Cobalt (Co) atoms are successfully decorated into oxygen-doped boron nitride (BN) via an in situ pyrolysis method, achieving greatly improved catalytic activity and selectivity to the carbon monoxide (CO) product. X-ray absorption fine spectroscopy demonstrates that the isolated Co atoms are stabilized by the O and N atoms with an unsaturated CoO2 N1 configuration. Further experimental investigation and theoretical simulations confirm that the decorated Co atoms not only work as the real active center during the CO2 reduction process, but also perform as the electron pump to promote the electron/hole separation and transfer, resulting in greatly accelerated reaction kinetics and improved activity. In addition, the CoO2 N1 coordination geometry is favorable to the conversion from *CO2 to *COOH, which shall be considered as a selectivity-determining step for the evolution of the CO products. The surface modulation strategy at the atomic level opens a new avenue for regulating the reaction kinetics for photocatalytic CO2 reduction.

Abstract
The design of unsaturated nonprecious metal complexes with high catalytic performance for photochemical CO2 reduction is still an important challenge. In this paper, four coordinatively unsaturated Co-salen complexes 1-4 were explored in situ using o-phenylenediamine derivatives and 5-methylsalicylaldehyde as precursors of the ligands in 1-4. It was found that complex 4, bearing a nitro substituent (-NO2) on the aromatic ring of the salen ligand, exhibits the highest photochemical performance for visible-light-driven CO2-to-CO conversion in a water-containing system, with TONCO and CO selectivity values of 5300 and 96%, respectively. DFT calculations and experimental results revealed that the promoted photocatalytic activity of 4 is ascribed to the electron-withdrawing effect of the nitro group in 4 compared to 1-3 (with -CH3, -F, and -H groups, respectively), resulting in a lower reduction potential of active metal centers CoII and lower barriers for CO2 coordination and C-O cleavage steps for 4 than those for catalysts 1-3.

Abstract
Effective personal protection is crucial for controlling infectious disease spread. However, commonly used personal protective materials such as disposable masks lack antibacterial/antiviral function and may lead to cross infection. Herein, a polyethylene glycol-assisted solvent-free strategy is proposed to rapidly synthesize a series of the donor-acceptor metal-covalent organic frameworks (MCOFs) (i.e., GZHMU-2, JNM-1, and JNM-2) under air atmosphere and henceforth extend it via in situ hot-pressing process to prepare MCOFs based films with photocatalytic disinfect ability. Best of them, the newly designed GZHMU-2 has a wide absorption spectrum (200 to 1500 nm) and can efficiently produce reactive oxygen species under sunlight irradiation, achieving excellent photocatalytic disinfection performance. After in situ hot-pressing as a film material, the obtained GZHMU-2/NMF can effectively kill E. coli (99.99%), S. aureus (99%), and H1N1 (92.5%), meanwhile possessing good reusability. Noteworthy, the long-term use of a GZHMU-2/NWF-based mask has verified no damage to the living body by measuring the expression of mouse blood routine, lung tissue, and inflammatory factors at the in-vivo level.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has emerged as a promising approach to cancer treatment, which can break the intracellular redox state balance and result in severe oxidative damage to biomolecules and organelles with the advantages of being less dependent on external stimulation, having deep tissue-healing abilities, and being resistant to drug resistance. There is considerable interest in developing CDT drugs with high efficiency and low toxicity. In this study, a new guanidinium-based biological metal covalent organic framework (Bio-MCOF), GZHMU-1@Mo, is rationally designed and synthesized as a multifunctional nanocatalyst in tumor cells for enhanced CDT. The DFT calculation and experimental results showed that due to the ability of MoO42- ion to promote electron transfer and increase the redox active site, Cu3 clusters and MoO42- ions in GZHMU-1@Mo can synergistically catalyze the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from oxygen and H2O2 in tumor cells, as well as degrade intracellular reducing substances, GSH and NADH, so as to disrupt the redox balance in tumor cells. Moreover, GZHMU-1@Mo exhibits a potent killing effect on tumor cells under both normal oxygen and anaerobic conditions. Further in vitro and in vivo antiproliferation studies revealed that the GZHMU-1@Mo nanoagent displays a remarkable antiproliferation effect and effectively inhibits tumor growth. Taken together, our study provides an insightful reference benchmark for the rational design of Bio-MCOF-based nanoagents with efficient CDT.

Abstract
Skillfully engineering surface ligands at specific sites within robust clusters presents both a formidable challenge and a captivating opportunity. Herein we unveil an unprecedented titanium-oxo cluster: a calix[8]arene-stabilized metallamacrocycle (Ti16L4), uniquely crafted through the fusion of four "core-shell" {Ti4@(TBC[8])(L)} subunits with four oxalate moieties. Notably, this cluster showcases an exceptional level of chemical stability, retaining its crystalline integrity even when immersed in highly concentrated acid (1 M HNO3) and alkali (20 M NaOH). The macrocycle's surface unveils four specific, customizable μ2-bridging sites, primed to accommodate diverse carboxylate ligands. This adaptability is highlighted through deliberate modifications achieved by alternating crystal soaking in alkali and carboxylic acid solutions. Furthermore, Ti16L4 macrocycles autonomously self-assemble into one-dimensional nanotubes, which subsequently organize into three distinct solid phases, contingent upon the specific nature of the four μ2-bridging ligands. Notably, the Ti16L4 exhibit a remarkable capacity for photocatalytic activity in selectively reducing CO2 to CO. Exploiting the macrocycle's modifiable shell yields a significant boost in performance, achieving an exceptional maximum CO release rate of 4.047 ± 0.243 mmol g-1 h-1. This study serves as a striking testament to the latent potential of precision-guided surface ligand manipulation within robust clusters, while also underpinning a platform for producing microporous materials endowed with a myriad of surface functionalities.

Abstract
The development of efficient, recyclable and low-cost heterogeneous catalysts for conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) into epoxides is highly desired, yet remain a challenge. Herein, we have prepared three two-dimensional (2D) copper(I) cyclic trinuclear units (Cu(I)-CTUs) based covalent metal-organic frameworks (CMOFs), namely JNM-13, JNM-14, and JNM-15, via a one-pot reaction by combination of coordination and dynamic covalent chemistry. Among them, JNM-15 contained the highest density of copper catalytic sites, and exhibited the highest capacity for adsorption of CO2 . More interestingly, JNM-15 delivered the highest catalytic activity for cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides with good yields (up to 99 %), good substrate compatibility (11 examples) and reusability (four catalytic cycles) under mild condition.

Synergistic Interplay of Dual-Active-Sites on Metallic Ni-MOFs Loaded with Pt for Thermal-Photocatalytic Conversion of Atmospheric CO 2 under Infrared Light Irradiation. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202313784.

Abstract
Infrared light driven photocatalytic reduction of atmospheric CO2 is challenging due to the ultralow concentration of CO2 (0.04 %) and the low energy of infrared light. Herein, we develop a metallic nickel-based metal-organic framework loaded with Pt (Pt/Ni-MOF), which shows excellent activity for thermal-photocatalytic conversion of atmospheric CO2 with H2 even under infrared light irradiation. The open Ni sites are beneficial to capture and activate atmospheric CO2 , while the photogenerated electrons dominate H2 dissociation on the Pt sites. Simultaneously, thermal energy results in spilling of the dissociated H2 to Ni sites, where the adsorbed CO2 is thermally reduced to CO and CH4 . The synergistic interplay of dual-active-sites renders Pt/Ni-MOF a record efficiency of 9.57 % at 940 nm for converting atmospheric CO2 , enables the procurement of CO2 to be independent of the emission sources, and improves the energy efficiency for trace CO2 conversion by eliminating the capture media regeneration and molecular CO2 release.

Abstract
Atomically precise Cu clusters are highly desirable as catalysts for CO2 reduction reaction (CO2 RR), and they provide an appropriate model platform for elaborating their structure-activity relationship. However, an efficient overall photocatalytic CO2 RR with H2 O using assembled Cu-cluster aggregates as single component photocatalyst has not been reported. Herein, we report a stable crystalline Cu-S-N cluster photocatalyst with local protonated N-H groups (denoted as Cu6 -NH). The catalyst exhibits suitable photocatalytic redox potentials, high structural stability, active catalytic species, and a narrow band gap, which account for its outstanding photocatalytic CO2 RR performance under visible light, with ≈100 % selectivity for CO evolution. Remarkably, systematic isostructural Cu-cluster control experiments, in situ infrared spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations revealed that the protonated pyrimidine N atoms in the Cu6 -NH cluster act as a proton relay station, providing a local proton during the photocatalytic CO2 RR. This efficiently lowers the energy barrier for the formation of the *COOH intermediate, which is the rate-limiting step, efficiently enhancing the photocatalytic performance. This work lays the foundation for the development of atomically precise metal-cluster-based photocatalysts.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries have attracted a continually increasing level of interest for large-scale energy storage because they are highly safe and have high energy density and abundant reserves. However, Zn anodes face significant challenges such as severe dendrite growth and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). We here propose an efficient Zn2+ sieve strategy for modulating the anode chemistry using two-dimensional NH2-MIL-125 (Ti) metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosheets. Theoretical investigations reveal the crucial role of the Ti MOF in regulating Zn2+ solvation structures for fast diffusion and uniform deposition and decreasing HER reactivity. The structure of the nanosheets enables abundant accessible desolvation sites and shortened ionic pathways. As a result, the MOF nanosheet-protected Zn anode exhibited greatly improved cycling stability in both symmetric cells and full cells. Operando optical monitoring and postmortem analysis revealed effective suppression of dendrite growth and HER by Ti MOF nanosheets. This anti-HER MOF-enabled Zn2+ sieve strategy provides a viable Zn anode and provides new insights for optimizing aqueous batteries.

Abstract
We report a novel double-shelled nanoboxes photocatalyst architecture with tailored interfaces that accelerate quantum efficiency for photocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) via Mo-S bridging bonds sites in Sv-In2S3@2H-MoTe2. The X-ray absorption near-edge structure shows that the formation of Sv-In2S3@2H-MoTe2 adjusts the coordination environment via interface engineering and forms Mo-S polarized sites at the interface. The interfacial dynamics and catalytic behavior are clearly revealed by ultrafast femtosecond transient absorption, time-resolved, and in situ diffuse reflectance-Infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy. A tunable electronic structure through steric interaction of Mo-S bridging bonds induces a 1.7-fold enhancement in Sv-In2S3@2H-MoTe2(5) photogenerated carrier concentration relative to pristine Sv-In2S3. Benefiting from lower carrier transport activation energy, an internal quantum efficiency of 94.01% at 380 nm was used for photocatalytic CO2RR. This study proposes a new strategy to design photocatalyst through bridging sites to adjust the selectivity of photocatalytic CO2RR.

Abstract
The origin of life on Earth is an enigmatic and intricate conundrum that has yet to be comprehensively resolved despite recent significant developments within the discipline of archaeology and geology. Chemically, metal-sulfide minerals are speculated to serve as an important medium for giving birth in early life, while yet so far direct evidence to support the hypothesis for the highly efficient conversion of inorganic carbon into praxiological biomolecules remains scarce. In this work, we provide an initial indication that sphalerite, employed as a typical mineral, shows its enormous capability for promoting the conversion of inorganic carbon into elementary biomolecule formic acid (HCOOH) in airborne mineral-bearing aerosol microdroplet, which is over two orders of magnitude higher than that of the corresponding conventional bulk-like aqueous phase medium in the environment (e.g. river, lake, sea, etc.). This significant enhancement was further validated by a wide range of minerals and clays, including CuS, NiS, CoS, CdS, MnS, elemental sulfur, Arizona Test Dust, loess, nontronite, and montmorillonite. We reveal that the abundant interface of unique physical-chemical features instinct for aerosol or cloud microdroplets reduces the reaction energy barrier for the reaction, thus leading to extremely high HCOOH production (2.52 × 1014 kg year-1). This study unfolds unrecognized remarkable contributions of the considered scheme in the accumulation of prebiotic biomolecules in the ancient period of the Earth.

Abstract
Converting CO2 into value-added chemicals to solve the issues caused by carbon emission is promising but challenging. Herein, by embedding metal ions (Co2+ , Ni2+ , Cu2+ , and Zn2+ ) into an imidazole-linked robust photosensitive covalent organic framework (PyPor-COF), effective photocatalysts for CO2 conversion are rationally designed and constructed. Characterizations display that all of the metallized PyPor-COFs (M-PyPor-COFs) display remarkably high enhancement in their photochemical properties. Photocatalysis reactions reveal that the Co-metallized PyPor-COF (Co-PyPor-COF) achieves a CO production rate as high as up to 9645 µmol g-1 h-1 with a selectivity of 96.7% under light irradiation, which is more than 45 times higher than that of the metal-free PyPor-COF, while Ni-metallized PyPor-COF (Ni-PyPor-COF) can further tandem catalyze the generated CO to CH4 with a production rate of 463.2 µmol g-1 h-1 . Experimental analyses and theory calculations reveal that their remarkable performance enhancement on CO2 photoreduction should be attributed to the incorporated metal sites in the COF skeleton, which promotes the adsorption and activation of CO2 and the desorption of generated CO and even reduces the reaction energy barrier for the formation of different intermediates. This work demonstrates that by metallizing photoactive COFs, effective photocatalysts for CO2 conversion can be achieved.

Abstract
Multi-component metal-organic frameworks (MC-MOFs) are crystalline porous materials containing multiple organic ligands or mixed metals, which manifest new properties beyond the linear combination of the single component. However, the traditional one-pot synthesis method for MOFs is not always applicable for synthesizing MC-MOFs due to the competitive coordination of multiple ligands and metals. Therefore, the stepwise construction of MC-MOFs has been explored, which enables more precise control of the heterogeneity within the ordered MC-MOFs. This review provides a summary of the synthesis strategies, namely, ligand exchange, coordinative modification, covalent modification, ligand metalation, cluster metalation, and use of mixed-metal precursors, for the stepwise construction of MC-MOFs. Furthermore, we discuss the applications of MC-MOFs with ordered arrangements of multiple functionalities, focusing on gas adsorption and separation, water remediation, heterogeneous catalysis, luminescence, and chemical sensing.

Abstract
The precise tuning of components, spatial orientations, or connection modes for redox units is vital for gaining deep insight into efficient artificial photosynthetic overall reaction, yet it is still hard achieve for heterojunction photocatalysts. Here, we have developed a series of redox molecular junction covalent organic frameworks (COFs) (M-TTCOF-Zn, M = Bi, Tri, and Tetra) for artificial photosynthetic overall reaction. The covalent connection between TAPP-Zn and multidentate TTF endows various connection modes between water photo-oxidation (multidentate TTF) and CO2 photoreduction (TAPP-Zn) centers that can serve as desired platforms to study the possible interactions between redox centers. Notably, Bi-TTCOF-Zn exhibits a high CO production rate of 11.56 μmol g-1 h-1 (selectivity, ∼100%), which is more than 2 and 6 times higher than those of Tri-TTCOF-Zn and Tetra-TTCOF-Zn, respectively. As revealed by theoretical calculations, Bi-TTCOF-Zn facilitates a more uniform distribution of energy-level orbitals, faster charge transfer, and stronger *OH adsorption/stabilization ability than those of Tri-TTCOF-Zn and Tetra-TTCOF-Zn.

Abstract
Vinylsilanes are valuable building blocks and important structural units in organic chemistry. Herein, catalytic alkyne hydrosilylation was reported to be promoted by a porphyrin metal-organic framework with the incorporation of Pd nanoparticles (Pd@Ir-PCN-222). Catalytic results showed that Pd@Ir-PCN-222 displayed high catalytic efficiency, giving rise to the E isomer vinylsilane with an excellent turnover frequency (TOF) of 2564 h-1. The mechanism studies revealed that the enhancement of the catalytic activity originated from the cooperation between iridium porphyrin and the Pd nanoparticle in confined spaces. The iridium porphyrin was prone to absorb and condense the hydrosilane and alkyne in the inner cavities of Ir-PCN-222, not only accelerating the reaction but also promoting the Pd nanoparticle to activate the Si-H and C≡C bonds of hydrosilane and alkyne, respectively.

Abstract
Using solar photocatalytic CO2 reduction to produce high-value-added products is a promising solution to environmental problems caused by greenhouse gases. Metal phthalocyanine COFs possess a suitable band structure and strong light absorption ability, making them a promising candidate for photocatalytic CO2 reduction. However, the relationship between the electronic structure of these materials and photocatalytic properties, as well as the mechanism of photocatalytic CO2 reduction, is still unclear. Herein, the electronic structure of three MPc-TFPN-COFs (M = Ni, Co, Fe) and the reaction process of CO2 reduction to CO, HCOOH, HCHO and CH3OH were studied using DFT calculations. The calculated results demonstrate that these COFs have a good photo response to visible light and are new potential photocatalytic materials. Three COFs show different reaction mechanisms and selectivity in generating CO2 reduction products. NiPc-TFPN-COFs obtain CO through the reaction pathway of CO2 → COOH → CO, and the energy barrier of the rate-determining step is 2.82 eV. NiPc-TFPN-COFs and FePc-TFPN-COFs generate HCHO through CO2 → COOH → CO → CHO → HCHO, and the energy barrier of the rate step is 2.82 eV and 2.37 eV, respectively. Higher energies are required to produce HCOOH and CH3OH. This work is helping in understanding the mechanism of photocatalytic reduction of CO2 in metallophthalocyanine COFs.

Abstract
The photocatalytic reduction of CO2 with H2O into valuable chemicals is a sustainable carbon-neutral technology for renewable energy; however, the photocatalytic activity and product selectivity remain challenging. Herein, an S-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst with superior CO2 photoreduction performance─porous C3N4 (CN) nanosheets anchored with zinc(II) tetra(4-cyanophenyl)porphyrin (ZnTP) nanoassemblies (denoted as ZnTP/CN)─was designed and prepared via a simple self-assembly process. The constructed ZnTP/CN heterojunction had rich accessible active sites, improved CO2 absorption capacity, and high charge carrier separation efficiency caused by the S-scheme heterojunction. As a result, the obtained ZnTP/CN catalyst exhibited considerable activity for photocatalytic CO2 reduction, yielding CO with a generation rate of 19.4 μmol g-1·h-1 and a high selectivity of 95.8%, which is much higher than that of pristine CN nanosheets (4.53 μmol g-1·h-1, 57.4%). In addition, theoretical calculations and in situ Fourier transform infrared spectra demonstrated that the Zn sites in the porphyrin unit favor CO2 activation and *COOH formation as well as CO desorption, thereby affording a high CO selectivity. This work provides insight into the design and fabrication of efficient S-scheme heterostructure photocatalysts for solar energy storage.

Abstract
Solar-driven high-efficiency conversion of CO2 with water vapor into high-value-added alcohols is a promising approach for reducing CO2 emissions and achieving carbon neutrality. However, the rapid recombination of photogenerated carriers and low CO2 adsorption capacity of photocatalysts are usually the factors that limit their applicability. Herein, a series of low-cost Z-scheme heterostructures Cu2O/PCN-250-x are constructed by in situ growth of ultrasmall Cu2O nanoparticles on PCN-250. A systematic investigation revealed that there is a strong interaction between Cu2O nanoparticles and PCN-250. The resulting Cu2O/PCN-250-2 exhibits excellent photogenerated carrier separation efficiency and CO2 adsorption capacity, which dramatically promote the conversion of CO2 into alcohols. Notably, the total yield of 268 μmol gcat-1 for the production of CH3OH and CH3H2OH is superior to that of isolated PCN-250 and Cu2O. This study provides a new perspective for the design of a Cu2O nanoparticle/metal-organic framework Z-scheme heterojunction for the reduction of CO2 to alcohols with water vapor.

Abstract
Indirect electrocatalytic conversion of cheap organic raw materials via the activation of S─H and N─H bonds into the value-added S─N/S─S bonds chemicals for industrial rubber production is a promising strategy to realize the atomic economic reaction, during which the kinetic inhibition that is associated with the electron transfer at the electrode/electrolyte interface in traditional direct electrocatalysis can be eliminated to achieve higher performance. In this work, a series of di-copper-substituted phosphotungstatebased foams (PW10 Cu2 @CMC) are fabricated with tunable loadings (17 to 44 wt%), which can be successfully applied in indirect electrocatalytic syntheses of sulfenamides and disulfides. Specifically, the optimal PW10 Cu2 @CMC (44 wt%) exhibits excellent electrocatalytic performance for the construction of S─N/S─S bonds (yields up to 99%) coupling with the efficient production of H2 (≈50 µmol g-1 h-1 ). Remarkably, it enables the scale-up production (≈14.4 g in a batch experiment) and the obtained products can serve as rubber vulcanization accelerators with superior properties to traditional industrial rubber additives in real industrial processes. This powerful catalysis system that can simultaneously produce rubber vulcanization accelerator and H2 may inaugurate a new electrocatalytic avenue to explore polyoxometalate-based foam catalysts in electrocatalysis field.

Abstract
A low concentration of Te4+ doping is found to be capable of endowing the lead-free Cs2 SnCl6 perovskites with excellent photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), while further increasing Te4+ concentration leads to PLQY deterioration. The mechanism behind the improved PLQY is intensively studied and reported elsewhere. However, little work is conducted to understand the decreased PLQY at high doping levels and to explore its implications for non-PL-related applications. Here, it is demonstrated that the Te4+ -incorporated Cs2 SnCl6 can be promising candidate for efficient CO2 photocatalysis. An optimum photocatalytic performance is achieved when Te4+ concentration reaches as high as 50%, at which point significant PL quenching has occurred. Through a detailed spectral characterization, such concentration-dependent functionality is attributed to systematic changes in both electronic and local crystal structure, which allow a robust regulation of excitation energy relaxation channels. These findings expand the scope of available photocatalysts for CO2 reduction and also inform synthetic planning for the preparation of multifunctional Pb-free metal halide perovskites.
