Temperature‐Dependent Photoredox Catalysis for CO2 Reduction Coupled with Selective Benzyl Alcohol Oxidation over ZnIn2S4/In2O3 Heterostructure

CO 2 reduction (CO 2 RR) with selective benzyl alcohol (BA) oxidation in a single photoredox reaction can simultaneously utilize photogenerated electrons and holes to realize efficient production of fuels and value‐added chemicals. Herein, a unique 2D/1D ZnIn 2 S 4 /In 2 O 3 (ZIS/In 2 O 3 ) heterostructure is developed displaying outstanding performance for photoredox catalysis. As is unequivocally illustrated by various advanced ex situ/in situ characterizations and theoretic calculations, the notable catalytic performances originate from the built‐in interfacial electric field within the ZIS/In 2 O 3 heterostructure, which strongly ameliorates the separation and transport of charge carriers. Remarkably, the catalytic activity can further be boosted after coupling the additional thermal treatments, and the product selectivity is highly temperature dependent. Thereby, the precise formation of targeted products, which can serve as valuable industrial products and fuels can be controlled by changing the reaction temperatures, including obtaining the syngas with different H 2 /CO ratios from CO 2 reduction, as well as benzaldehyde, hydrogenated benzoin, and dibenzyl ether (never reported for BA during photocatalysis) from the BA conversion. This study offers a constructive and inspiring contribution to reasonably developing photoredox catalysts, which can fully utilize photogenerated electrons and holes, as well as demonstrate how to controllably yield the targeted products by coupling thermo‐ and photoredox catalysis.
