A formyl functional ligand linker for COFs in application of carbon dioxide reduction and photocatalytic H₂O₂ production

Specifications | MSDS | Literature and Reviews

C3-type electron-rich monomer 4,4',4''-(Benzene-1,3,5-triyltris(ethyne-2,1-diyl))tribenzaldehyde (BTETBA), CAS number 2289758-98-9, is consisted of three 4-formylphenylethynyl functional groups sitting on the meta positions of a benzene ring.

Metal-free covalent organic framework, BTETBA-COF was obtained by incorporating ethynyl groups into the conjugated skeleton. The bridging with the ethynyl groups afforded a significant improvement in π-conjugation and photogenerated charge separation and transfer, promoting CO₂ photoreduction in a solid-gas mode with only water vapor and CO₂. The CO production rate with BTETBA-COF as the photocatalyst reached as high as 382.0 µmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹, ranking as one of the best among all additive-free CO₂ photoreduction catalysts. Another BTETBA-TRz-COF, with spatially separated triazine and acetylene units, was engaged for photocatalytic H₂O₂ production. The spatial separation of triazine and acetylene cores leads to efficient charge separation and suppressed charge recombination, and carbon-carbon double bond linkage facilitates electrons transport over the skeletons.
