Mild and efficient photocatalytic coupled alcohol oxidative dehydrogenation and CO₂ reduction driven by visible light

Abstract

Al 3+ -Doped decatungstate (Al-DT) that in situ -generates the double-reduced blue H 2 DT playing a crucial role in achieving the reduction of CO 2 can efficiently catalyze the coupled reactions of alcohol oxidative dehydration and CO 2 reduction under visible light illumination.
