Visible-light-driven conversion of CO2 from air to CO using an ionic liquid and a conjugated polymer

Abstract

A metal-free and highly efficient catalytic system involving a task-specific ionic liquid, [P4444][p-2-O], and a pyrene-based conjugated polymer was developed for direct CO2 capture from air and its further photoreduction to CO under visible light irradiation, affording a CO production rate of 47.37 μmol g−1 h−1 with a selectivity of 98.3%.
