“…In 2021, Lloret-Fillol et al prepared a Mn( i )-metalated COF as a CO 2 RR electrocatalyst by grafting Mn(CO) 5 Br on COF bpy via CO–bipyridine ligand exchange. 246 The COF bpyMn |NT composite, composed of COF bpyMn and multiwalled carbon nanotubes, exhibits higher CO 2 RR activity than the corresponding molecular electrocatalyst composite fac -Mn(2,2′-bipyridine)(CO) 3 Br|NT. In 0.5 M NaHCO 3 solution, the CO faradaic efficiency of COF bpyMn |NT was 62% under optimized conditions, while that of fac -Mn(2,2′-bipyridine)(CO) 3 Br|NT was only 13%, and the TOF of COF bpyMn |NT was 627 h −1 , which was 15.7 times higher than that of fac -Mn(2,2′-bipyridine)(CO) 3 Br|NT.…”
