Abstract
For photoelectrochemical NADH regeneration, an electrode-supported "lipid bilayer membrane" photocathode based on a p-Si semiconductor, an electron transport mediator (OBV2+), and a [Rh(Cp*)(bpy)Cl]+ catalyst was constructed by self-assembly. Mechanistic study shows that OBV2+ can enhance the charge transfer between the semiconductor and catalyst, leading to a significant improvement of the NADH photo-regeneration rate.

Abstract
Photocatalysis is an eco-friendly method to regenerate nicotinamide (NADH) cofactors, which is essential for biotransformation over oxidoreductases. Organic polymers exhibit high stability, biocompatibility and functional designability as photocatalysts, but still suffering from rapid charge recombination. Herewith the heteroatom structural engineering of donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) conjugated porous polymers were conducted to promote charge transfer and photocatalytic NADH regeneration. The electron delocalization of polymer photocatalysts can be readily tuned by changing the electron density of the donor unit, leading to faster charge separation and better photocatalytic performance. The optimum sulfur-doped polymer exhibits the highest NADH regeneration yield of 47.4 % in 30 min and 94.1 % in 4 h, which can drive the biocatalytic C=C bond reduction of 2-cyclohexen-1-one by ene-reductase, giving the corresponding cyclohexanone yield of 96.7 % in 10 h. Moreover, the oxygen-doped polymer, from biomass derived 2,5-diformylfuran, exhibits comparable photocatalytic activity to the sulfur-doped CPP, suggesting the potential of furan as alternative donor unit to thiophene.

Constructing a CdS QDs/silica gel composite with high photosensitivity and prolonged recyclable operability for enhanced visible-light-driven NADH regeneration. J Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 652:1043-1052.

Abstract
Visible-light-driven nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) regeneration is one of the most effective measures, and cadmium sulfide (CdS) materials are typically used as low-cost photocatalysts. The CdS photocatalysts, however, still suffer from low regeneration efficiency and poor cycle stability. In this work, the CdS quantum dots (QDs) less than 10 nm embedded onto silica gel (CdS QDs/Silica gel) were constructed for visible-light-driven NADH regeneration by a successive ionic layer adsorption reaction and ball milling method. Results demonstrate that the photosensitivity of the CdS QDs/Silica gel composite was 31 times higher than that of the bulk CdS. Moreover, the conduction band (CB) edge of the CdS QDs/Silica gel composite is -1.34 eV, which is more negative 0.5 eV than that of the bulk CdS. The obtained CdS QDs/Silica gel composites showed the highest NADH regeneration yields of 68.8% under visible-light (LED, 420 nm) illumination and can be reused for over 40 cycles. Finally, the bioactivity of NADH toward enzyme catalysis is further confirmed by the hydrogenation of benzaldehyde to benzyl alcohol catalyzed with an alcohol dehydrogenase as enzyme catalysis.

Abstract
In recent decades, the efficient utilization of solar energy through heterogeneous photocatalytic chemical transformation has attracted much attention. As emerging metal-free, pure organic and heterogeneous photocatalysts, π-conjugated polymers (CPs) have been used in visible-light-driven chemical transformations due to their stability, high specific surface area, metal-free nature, and high structural designability. In this review, we summarize the synthesis protocols and design strategies for efficient CP-based photocatalysts based on the photocatalytic mechanisms. Then we highlight the key progress in light-driven chemical transformation using CPs developed by our group. Finally, we present the outlook and possible challenges for future progress of the field.

Abstract
Photocatalysts for regeneration of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) usually work with continuous lighting and electron mediators, which causes impracticability under dark conditions, risk of NADH reoxidation, and complex separation. To solve these problems, we present a new catalyst of tiny Pt nanoparticles photodeposited on chromium-doped zinc gallate (CZGO@Pt). Upon being light-triggered, the photogenerated electrons are stored in the traps of CZGO and then gradually released and transferred by Pt to directly reduce NAD+ after stoppage of illumination. Three lighting modes are compared to demonstrate the feasibility and advantage of this light-triggered dark catalysis. Within 4 h of reaction, the in-the-dark NADH yield reaches 75.0% under prelighting CZGO@5%Pt and it reaches 80.0% under prelighting CZGO@5%Pt and triethanolamine (TEOA). However, the NADH yield is only 53.5% under continuous lighting of CZGO@5%Pt, TEOA, and NAD+. Consequently, the light-triggered dark catalytic regeneration of NADH not only saves energy and operates easily but also significantly elevates the NADH yield. It thus would secure wide interests and applications in places where no light or only intermittent light is available.

Abstract
In the past 20 years, enzymatic conversions have been intensely examined as a practical and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional organocatalytic conversions for chemicals and pharmaceutical intermediate production. Out of all commercial enzymes, more than one-fourth are oxidoreductases that operate in tandem with coenzymes, typically nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH). Enzymes utilize coenzymes as a source for electrons, protons, or holes. Unfortunately, coenzymes can be exorbitant; thus, recycling coenzymes is paramount to establishing a sustainable and affordable cell-free enzymatic catalyst system. Herein, cost-effective transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), 2H-MoS2, 2H-WS2, and 2H-WSe2, were employed for the first time for direct electrochemical reduction of NAD+ to the active form of the NADH (1,4-NADH). Of the three TMDCs, 2H-WSe2 shows optimal activity, producing 1,4 NADH at a rate of 6.5 μmol cm-2 h-1 and a faradaic efficiency of 45% at -0.8 V vs Ag/AgCl. Interestingly, a self-induced surface reorganization process was identified, where the native surface oxide grown in the air was spontaneously removed in the electrochemical process, resulting in the activation of TMDCs.
