Summary:The nanocomposites of MoS 2 nanosheets with the metal-organic framework, ZIF-8, have been synthesized starting with the layers of 1T-MoS 2 generated by Li intercalation of bulk MoS 2 , followed by exfoliation. The nanocomposites contain the Zn-S bond and exhibit reasonably high surface areas. They exhibit CO 2 uptake higher than ZIF-8. Heating the nanocomposites to 900 °C under a N 2 atmosphere yields MoS 2 -ZnS nanocomposites which show good activity for the visible-light induced hydrogen evolution reaction. The nanocomposites of MoS 2 -ZIF-8 in which ZIF-8 is covalently bonded to MoS 2 exhibit high CO 2 uptake. MoS 2 -ZnS obtained by heating MoS 2 -ZIF-8 composites shows good hydrogen evolution activity.
