Introducing proton/electron mediators enhances the catalytic ability of an iron porphyrin complex for photochemical CO2 reduction

Abstract

A novel iron porphyrin complex with hydroquinone moieties as proton/electron mediators at meso positions was designed and synthesised. The complex serves as an efficient catalyst for photochemical CO2 reduction, and its turnover frequency (TOF = 1.3 × 104 h−1) was the highest among those of comparable systems with sufficient durability.
