Abstract
Providing efficient electronic transport channels has always been a promising strategy to mitigate the recombination of photogenerated charge carriers. In this study, a heterostructure composed of a semiconductor/photoinactive-metal-organic framework (MOF) was constructed to provide innovative channels for electronic transport. Prepared using a previously reported method ( Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 2016, 55, 15301-15305) with slight modifications to temperature and reaction time, the CuS@HKUST-1 hollow cuboctahedron was synthesized. The CuS@HKUST-1 heterostructure possessed a well-defined cuboctahedral morphology with a uniform size of about 500 nm and a hollow structure with a thickness of around 50 nm. The CuS nanoparticles were uniformly distributed on the HKUST-1 shell. Structural characterization in cooperation with density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that CuS can effectively transfer photogenerated electrons to HKUST-1. CuS@HKUST-1 hollow cuboctahedrons were first introduced to the photocatalytic cycloaddition reaction of CO2 with epoxides, demonstrating excellent photocatalytic activity and stability at mild conditions (room temperature, solvent-free, and 1 atm CO2 pressure). The high photocatalytic performance of the CuS@HKUST-1 hollow cuboctahedron could be attributed to (1) the unique hollow cuboctahedron morphology, which provided a large specific surface area (693.1 m2/g) and facilitated the diffusion and transfer of reactants and products; and (2) CuS@HKUST-1 providing electronic transport channels from CuS to HKUST-1, which could enhance the adsorption and activation of CO2. Cu2+ carrying surplus electrons can activate CO2 to CO2-. The charge separation and transfer in the photocatalytic process can also be effectively promoted. This work provides a cost-effective and environmentally friendly approach for CO2 utilization reactions under ambient conditions, addressing the critical issue of rising atmospheric CO2 levels.

Abstract
Two Mo-Ti-mixed oxide clusters, Ti6Mo4 and Ti4Mo4, which contain the {Mo2V} unit commonly observed in many polyoxomolybdates, were successfully synthesized. The introduction of a {Mo2V} dopant into a titanium-oxide cluster (TOC) results in a red shift of the absorption edge, hence leading to a substantial enhancement of visible-light absorption. The band gap electron transition mainly involves the ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT, benzoate-to-Mo) and MoV d-d transition. Both clusters show favorable visible-light responsiveness and charge-separation efficiency. Both serve as heterogeneous photocatalysts and exhibit excellent catalytic activity in CO2/epoxide cycloadditions under very mild conditions. The mechanism study suggests that the catalytically active sites are mainly MoV, and the photogenerated electrons and holes are both involved. Ti6Mo4 exhibits better photocatalytic activity than Ti4Mo4, demonstrating the crucial role of the titanium-oxide core, which corresponds to improved light absorption and charge-separation efficiency. Our findings highlight the potential of the {Mo2V} unit in constructing Mo-Ti-mixed oxide clusters with interesting topologies and excellent solar-light-harvesting activity.

Abstract
A series of calcined Chitosan (CS) photothermal catalysts are prepared by heating the biopolymer at different temperatures. The photothermal conversion (light to heat) ability of these calcined CS materials is evaluated by measuring the temperature change with respect to time and lamp power. The material prepared at 300 °C (Cal-CS-300) shows excellent photothermal conversion ability which is explored for the CO2 cycloaddition reaction with epoxides to produce cyclic carbonates under mild reaction parameters (1 atm CO2 pressure, 25 °C). The study reveals the importance of defects present in the material on both photothermal conversion and CO2 fixation efficiency. Under optimized reaction conditions, Cal-CS-300 is able to convert a range of epoxides into their respective cyclic carbonates (>97 % selectivity) and retains its catalytic activity (~86 %) for 5 cycles of catalysis without losing its chemical integrity. The use of ubiquitously available biopolymer together with light makes this approach sustainable for preparing value added chemicals.

Abstract
The CO2 cycloaddition to epoxides is an efficient method for CO2 capture and storage, important not only for reducing greenhouse gas emission but also for producing cyclic carbonates, which are valuable industrial materials. In this study, we report a novel high-nuclearity titanium oxide cluster (TOC) inlayed with main-group element Pb2+, H2Ti16Pb9O24(SA)18(DMF)10(OH2)2 (denoted as 1; SA = salicylate; DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide), which has the property of visible-light absorption and has shown high catalytic activities for cycloadditions of CO2 under visible-light irradiation. The cluster was synthesized in a high yield in a facial solvothermal process. Its structure and electronic structure were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, density functional theory calculations, and complementary techniques. The cycloaddition reactions were performed under solvent-free conditions. While the catalytic activity due to the Lewis acidity was moderate, visible-light irradiation further folded the reaction rates. The turnover number reached 3400 with a turnover frequency of 120 h-1. Mechanism studies indicated a synergistic effect of the Lewis acidity and photogenerated charge carriers. The performance of 1 in reversible I2 uptake was also investigated. This study demonstrates the high potential of heterometal-decorated TOCs in the cost-effective and efficient CO2 cycloaddition reaction under mild conditions.

Abstract
In this work, we have reported a noble metal free heterogeneous photocatalyst to carry out direct (het)arene C-H arylation and solvent-free CO2 capture via single-electron transfer processes at room temperature and under pressure. The catalytic system comprises a cobalt(III) complex grafted over the silica coated magnetic support for the efficient recovery of the photocatalytic moiety without hampering its light-harvesting capability. The novel Earth-abundant cobalt(III) based photocatalyst possesses various fascinating properties such as high surface area to volume ratios, large pore volume, crystalline behaviour, high metal loading, excellent stability and reusability. The general efficacy of the highly abundant and low-cost cobalt based heterogeneous nanocatalyst was checked for the selective conversion of aryldiazonium salts into synthetically and pharmaceutically significant biaryl motifs under ambient conditions upon irradiation with visible light. The highly efficient photocatalytic conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) to a value-added chemical was accomplished under mild reaction conditions with high selectivity, showing the added benefit of operational simplicity.
