Semiconductive Copper(I)-Organic Frameworks for Efficient Light-Driven Hydrogen Generation Without Additional Photosensitizers and Cocatalysts.

As the first example of a photocatalytic system for splitting water without additional cocatalysts and photosensitizers, the comparatively cost-effective Cu2 I2 -based MOF, Cu-I-bpy (bpy=4,4'-bipyridine) exhibited highly efficient photocatalytic hydrogen production (7.09 mmol g-1 h-1 ).
