Abstract: Perovskite hydroxide CoSn(OH)6nanoparticles were synthesized and used for the first time in the photocatalytic reduction of CO2to CO. Under mild reaction conditions and using [Ru(bpy)3](PF6)2as the photosensitizer, a high photocatalytic efficiency of 19.3 μmol for CO evolution with a high selectivity of 86.46% was obtained. The photocatalytic activity and CO selectivity were further improved by adding weak Brönsted acids, as proton sources, to the system. © 2017 American Chemical Society.
