Synergistic Porosity and Charge Effects in a Supramolecular Porphyrin Cage Promote Efficient Photocatalytic CO₂ Reduction**

We present a supramolecular approach to catalyzing photochemical CO₂ reduction through second-sphere porosity and charge effects. An iron porphyrin box (PB) bearing 24 cationic groups, FePB-2(P), was made via post-synthetic modification of an alkyne-functionalized supramolecular synthon. FePB-2(P) promotes the photochemical CO₂ reduction reaction (CO₂RR) with 97 % selectivity for CO product, achieving turnover numbers (TON) exceeding 7000 and initial turnover frequencies (TOF_max) reaching 1400 min⁻¹. The cooperativity between porosity and charge results in a 41-fold increase in activity relative to the parent Fe tetraphenylporphyrin (FeTPP) catalyst, which is far greater than analogs that augment catalysis through porosity (FePB-3(N), 4-fold increase) or charge (Fe p-tetramethylanilinium porphyrin (Fe-p-TMA), 6-fold increase) alone. This work establishes that synergistic pendants in the secondary coordination sphere can be leveraged as a design element to augment catalysis at primary active sites within confined spaces.
