| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Prerequisites for CO2 capture by Re(I) complexes, CO2 reduction photocatalysts, were revealed. CO2 capture ability of Re(I) complexes could be modulated by substituent effect, solvents, bases, etc. Based on these preferable conditions for CO2 capture, new Re(I) complexes having an auxiliary substituent for CO2 capture were designed and synthesized, which could capture CO2 molecule without any special additives and exhibited different CO2 reduction performance depending on the kind of auxiliary substituents. In this project, new photocatalytic systems showing both CO2 capture and CO2 reduction were developed, and the concept should be applicable to to other metal complex photocatalysts.
