However, the poor activity and selectivity of the 2 e^- water oxidation reaction (WOR) greatly restricts the efficiency of photocatalytic H₂ O₂ production. Herein we prepare a bipyridine-based covalent organic framework photocatalyst (denoted as COF-TfpBpy) for H₂ O₂ production from water and air. The solar-to-chemical conversion (SCC) efficiency at 298 K and 333 K is 0.57 % and 1.08 %, respectively, which are higher than the current reported highest value. The resulting H₂ O₂ solution is capable of degrading pollutants. A mechanistic study revealed that the excellent photocatalytic activity of COF-TfpBpy is due to the protonation of bipyridine monomer, which promotes the rate-determining reaction (2 e^- WOR) and then enhances Yeager-type oxygen adsorption to accelerate 2 e^- one-step oxygen reduction. This work demonstrates, for the first time, the COF-catalyzed photosynthesis of H₂ O₂ from water and air; and paves the way for wastewater treatment using photocatalytic H₂ O₂ solution.1e:T43e,Solar energy-driven conversion of CO₂ into fuels with H₂ O as a sacrificial agent is a challenging research field in photosynthesis. Herein, a series of crystalline porphyrin-tetrathiafulvalene covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are synthesized and used as photocatalysts for reducing CO₂ with H₂ O, in the absence of additional photosensitizer, sacrificial agents, and noble metal co-catalysts. The effective photogenerated electrons transfer from tetrathiafulvalene to porphyrin by covalent bonding, resulting in the separated electrons and holes, respectively, for CO₂ reduction and H₂ O oxidation. By adjusting the band structures of TTCOFs, TTCOF-Zn achieved the highest photocatalytic CO production of 12.33 μmol with circa 100 % selectivity, along with H₂ O oxidation to O₂ . Furthermore, DFT calculations combined with a crystal structure model confirmed the structure-function relationship. Our work provides a new sight for designing more efficient artificial crystalline photocatalysts.1f:T650,
