An electron-donating strategy to guide the construction of MOF photocatalysts toward co-catalyst-free highly efficient photocatalytic H 2 evolution

Herein, an interesting electron-donating strategy is proposed to guide the construction of novel CdS-based MOFs for co-catalyst-free photocatalytic H 2 evolution in the presence of triethanolamine as the hole-scavenger. The optimally designed CdS-based MOF exhibits an exceptional H 2 -evolution rate...

Summary:Herein, an interesting electron-donating strategy is proposed to guide the construction of novel CdS-based MOFs for co-catalyst-free photocatalytic H 2 evolution in the presence of triethanolamine as the hole-scavenger. The optimally designed CdS-based MOF exhibits an exceptional H 2 -evolution rate of 26.1 mmol g −1 h −1 which is almost the highest rate among the reported co-catalyst-free MOF systems.
