Abstract
Conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) to carbon monoxide (CO) and other value-added
carbon products is an important challenge for clean energy research. Here we report
modular optimization of covalent organic frameworks (COFs), in which the building units
are cobalt porphyrin catalysts linked by organic struts through imine bonds, to prepare a
catalytic material for aqueous electrochemical reduction of CO2 to CO. The catalysts
exhibit high Faradaic efficiency (90%) and turnover numbers (up to 290,000, with initial
turnover frequency of 9400 hour−1) at pH 7 with an overpotential of –0.55 volts, equivalent
to a 26-fold improvement in activity compared with the molecular cobalt complex, with no
degradation over 24 hours. X-ray absorption data reveal the influence of the COF
environment on the electronic structure of the catalytic cobalt centers.
