Abstract

Front cover image: Exploring robust photocatalysts to mimic natural leaf for the conversion of atmospheric CO2 into hydrocarbons utilizing solar light is highly significant but remains a major challenge. In article number CEY2.646, Dai and Gong et al. report the design of metal-salen incorporated conjugated microporous polymers for solar-driven reduction of atmospheric CO2 in the presence of water vapor. Without adding metal cocatalysts, the resulting polymers exhibit highly efficient CO production in air under solar light, even in the outdoor environment at different weather conditions. This work paves a new way for engineering polymer photocatalysts for the direct photoreduction of atmospheric CO2.
