Abstract
The development of heterogeneous catalysts with abundant active sites is pivotal for enhancing the efficiency of photothermal CO2 conversion. Herein, we report the construction of Co2N0.67@ZIF-67 through the in situ pyrolysis of ZIF-67 under low-temperature pyrolysis conditions. During the pyrolysis process, the crystal structure of ZIF-67 is predominantly preserved concurrently with the formation of Co2N0.67 nanoparticles (NPs) within the ZIF-67 pores. The optimal catalyst Co2N0.67@ZIF-67(450,2) not only possesses high photothermal efficiency but also can efficiently activate CO2. Benefiting from these characteristics, Co2N0.67@ZIF-67(450,2) exhibited significant catalytic activity in the photocatalytic cycloaddition of CO2 and epichlorohydrin. The yield of (chloromethyl)ethylene carbonate reached 95%, which is more than 4 times higher than that of ZIF-67 under visible light irradiation (300 W·m2 Xe lamp, 3 h). This study could offer an alternative approach to enhance the photocatalytic activity of MOFs through low-temperature pyrolysis.
