Solar‐Driven Artificial Photosynthesis: Solar‐Active D–π–A‐COFs Photocatalyst Using Cobalt Complex for CO <sub>2</sub> Fixation and Difluoroalkylation via HAT Pathways
into formic acid (106.9 µmol), beautifully linking energy capture with carbon usage. Plus, it enables solar-powered synthesis of important pharmaceutical intermediates, opening new doors in medicinal chemistry. Its excellent reusability, eco-friendly design, and demonstrated photocatalytic potential establish this framework as a promising platform for artificial photosynthesis, advancing solar fuel production and sustainable chemical manufacturing.
