Abstract

Here, a viologen-functionalized metal–organic framework (MOF), MIL-125-RV²⁺, was obtained by modification of MIL-125-NH₂ with viologen molecules. MIL-125-RV²⁺, the first viologen-based MOF for photocatalytic CO₂RR, exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity and high selectivity for HCOO⁻. The strategy of using photo-responsive color-changing organics to functionalize the MOF is significant for achieving efficient CO₂RR.
