مستخلص: The promise of artificial photosynthesis to solve environmental and energy issues such as global warming and the depletion of fossil fuels has inspired intensive research into photocatalytic systems for CO2reduction to produce value-added chemicals such as CO and CH3OH. Among the photocatalytic systems for CO2reduction, self-photosensitizing catalysts, bearing the functions of both photosensitization and catalysis, have attracted considerable attention recently, as such catalysts do not depend on the efficiency of electron transfer from the photosensitizer to the catalyst. Here, we have synthesized and characterized a dinuclear RuIIcomplex bearing two molecules of a tripodal hexadentate ligand as chelating and linking ligands by X-ray crystallography to establish the structure explicitly and have used various spectroscopic and electrochemical methods to elucidate the photoredox characteristics. The dinuclear complex has been revealed to act as a self-photosensitizing catalyst, which acts not only as a photosensitizer but also as a catalyst for CO2reduction. The dinuclear RuIIcomplex is highly durable and performs efficient and selective CO2reduction to produce CO with a turnover number of 2400 for 26 h. The quantum yield of the CO formation is also very high─19.7%─and the catalysis is efficient, even at a low concentration (∼1.5%) of CO2.
