Rather than intermediate redox mediators shuttling charge between two photocatalytic assemblies, Ishitani, Domen, and co-workers covalently connected the catalytic

However, separation of formaldehyde and the carbon dioxide reduction product formic acid would be difficult. Therefore, a logical route for sustainably sourcing methanol would be using this system
