A porous organic cage composed of six iron tetraphenylporphyrins was used as a supramolecular catalyst for electrochemical CO2 -to-CO conversion. This strategy enhances active site exposure and substrate diffusion relative to the monomeric catalyst, resulting in CO generation with near-quantitative Faradaic efficiency in pH 7.3 water, with activities reaching 55 250 turnovers. These results provide a starting point for the design of supramolecular catalysts that can exploit the properties of the surrounding matrix yet retain the tunability of the original molecular unit.
