Fig. 1: Schematic presentation of visible/sunlight-driven photocatalysis in TTF-based coordination polymer gel (CPG).

a TPY-TTF low molecular weight gelator (LMWG) based linker and corresponding organogel (TPY-TTF OG). b Self-assembly with ZnII toward the preparation of Zn-TPY-TTF CPG and preparation of Pt@Zn-TPY-TTF CPG by in situ stabilization of Pt nanoparticles on the Zn-TPY-TTF CPG. c Visible/sunlight-driven photocatalytic activity of Zn-TPY-TTF CPG and Pt@Zn-TPY-TTF CPG towards H2 evolution and CO2 reduction.
