Rocking chair enzyme: Chemical reducing agents (sodium dithionite) or bioglycerol (as H and e − ‐donor under irradiation in the presence of ZnS‐A as photocatalyst) are able to back‐convert NADP + into NADPH, which is used as e − ‐donor in the enzymatic reduction of CO 2 into CH 3 OH. In doing so, the molar ratio CH 3 OH/CO 2 has been increased (without recycling of NADP + ) using the photocatalyst.
