The recent interest among the chemist lies in utilization of carbon dioxide as oxygen source and CO source. In the thermal reaction for CO or oxygen formation from CO2 the equilibrium of reaction lies strongly to the left, and in the absence of active removal of one (or both) products, equilibrium production of CO and O2 varies from <1% at <2000 K up to about 60% at temperatures between 3000 K and 3500 K as the C=O bonds in CO2 [783 kJ/mol] are very strong. Herein we report a low tempertature method for CO formation over mesoporous carbon nitrides by utilizing O atom acceptors leading to formation of CO.
