The increased emission of CO 2 has negative impacts on the environment. Among the strategies, photocatalytic reduction is promising to convert the CO 2 into chemicals. In this report, CoO x nanoparticles were loaded in the channels of MIL‐101(Cr), a kind of metal‐organic frameworks (MOF), to construct a novel CoO x /MIL‐101(Cr) system to facilitate CO 2 photoreduction. Under the optimal conditions, the CoO x /MIL‐101(Cr) showed a significantly enhanced performance for photocatalytic CO 2 reduction compared with bare CoO x and MIL‐101(Cr). Our findings provide a pathway for a rational design of efficient MOF systems for the photocatalytic reduction of CO 2 .
