Atomic zinc active sites on imine-pyridine based covalent organic frameworks for enhancing photocatalytic H2O2 production

Abstract

Atomically dispersed metal sites were immobilized on imine-pyridine based covalent organic frameworks to explore their novel applications in simulated sunlight-driven H2O2 production. Among them, Zn-COFTAPB–BPA achieved a high H2O2 evolution rate of 2998 µmol g−1 h−1 and an apparent quantum yield (AQY) of 4.17% at 450 nm in pure water.
