Abstract

Inspired by photosynthesis and its ability to convert CO₂ to hydrocarbons, this Perspective focuses on the recent advances in catalytic small-molecule activation and conversion by photo(electro), photovoltaic, or photothermal catalysts and thermal catalysts. It will consider some industrial-scaled reactions of C-H (CH₄, benzene), C=O (CO and CO₂), and N≡N bonds, as well as other fine chemical syntheses (e.g., C-C/S-S bond coupling), which have been shown to be successfully driven by thermal energy or solar energy on the laboratory scale.
