The development of high-efficiency heterojunction with improved photocatalytic property is regarded as a promising way to decontaminate wastewater. In this study, Z-Scheme g-C 3 N 4 /H-TiO 2 heterojunctions with different proportions were synthesized. The photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) was studied under visible light irradiation. Among them, 10% g-C 3 N 4 /H-TiO 2 photocatalyst had the best performance, and the degradation rate of RhB was 65% within 120 min. In addition, 10% g-C 3 N 4 /H-TiO 2 photocatalyst had high stability, and its photocatalytic activity did not decrease significantly after four cycles. Through photocurrent analysis, it is found that the photogenerated carriers have obviously excellent separation and transfer characteristics, which makes the 10% g-C 3 N 4 /H-TiO 2 photocatalyst have good degradation performance. Electron paramagnetic resonance (ESR) experiments showed that ·OH and ·O 2 − were active radicals during degradation.

Oxidation of fatty alcohols to fatty acids is still challenging due to the sluggish activation of the C–H bond over Au supported on reducible oxides with a coordination-saturated structure. Herein, we constructed an efficient interfacial Auδ−–OV–Ti structure by tuning the crystal forms of TiO2. Compared with TiO2-rutile exposed by (110) and (111) crystal facets, TiO2-anatase can exploit the defect (101) crystal facet to obtain rich oxygen vacancies (OV), inducing electron migration from TiO2-anatase support to Au species to form electron-rich Auδ− species. Specifically, the synergistic catalytic effect between the OV–Ti and Auδ− species greatly enhances the adsorption of alcohol and thereby overcomes sluggish activation of the C–H bond caused by the electron pushing effect triggered by long carbon chains. Consequently, the Au/TiO2-anatase catalyst shows excellent isooctyl alcohol conversion (69.5%) and isocaprylic acid selectivity (67.9%) under base-free conditions. The catalytic system is further extended to the oxidation of other fatty alcohols to fatty acids with excellent catalytic performance.

The preparation of ternary hexagonal boron carbon nitride (h-BCN) nanosheets was carried out by doping biomass glucose in situ into hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). With this method, the construction of a two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor with tunable bandgap and characteristic adsorption ability toward organic molecules was achieved by maintaining the specific structure of h-BN and π-π interactions toward aromatic compounds. The ternary 2D h-BCN nanosheets worked effectively not only as a desirable adsorbent but also as an activator to benzene. Furthermore, the unique 2D h-BCN nanosheets were found to work as effective photocatalysts to convert benzene into phenol with less over-oxidation, leading to the development of a new type of Fenton oxidation reaction as the one-step visible light-driven hydroxylation of benzene. An optimal yield of 14.0% and its selectivity of 88.3% for the photocatalytic production of phenol from benzene were achieved by using h-BCN in the presence of FeCl 3 and H 2 O 2 in sustaining the same reactivity even after 4 cycles. This present study reports the latest development of phenol production from benzene by applying 2D h-BCN nanosheets as an artificial photosynthetic catalyst.

Due to the inertness and structural complexity of lignin, upgrading lignin to biofuels and fine chemicals still faces great challenges. In this paper, a one-pot method was used to catalyze straw lignin with H-ZSM-5 supported by Ni and Ru bimetals, and the lignin conversion rate reached 88.1%. The yield of monophenol was 19.5%, of which the yield of 4-ethylphenol and 4-ethylguaiacol was 4.9% and 3.8%, respectively. The 2D HSQC NMR analysis confirmed that the Ni–Ru/H-ZSM-5 catalyst had an obvious activity of breaking C β -O bonds before and after the reaction. The result showed that after loading metal Ni and Ru, the Lewis acid of the catalytic system was greatly increased, which caused electron transfer between Ni and Ru. 3Ni-1.5Ru/H-ZSM-5 had the strongest activity due to the largest synergy among Ni, Ru and H-ZSM-5. The synergy was the key factor leading to the cleavage of C–C and C–O bonds in straw lignin and the high-performance catalytic degradation of lignin. Besides, the effect of reaction solvent and hydrogen resource on upgrading lignin to fine chemicals over 3Ni-1.5Ru/HZSM-5 catalyst was also intensively investigated. This research developed a method for the direct conversion of lignin into valuable monophenols.

Numerous catalytic reaction systems take oxygen vacancy as the active site to initiate the redox cycle. However, the oxygen vacancy is easily occupied by various oxygen-containing species (e.g., water or other intermediates), resulting in catalyst deactivation . Here, we demonstrate that the layered double hydroxide (LDH) catalysts fundamentally solve the deactivation of oxygen vacancy frequently encountered with metal oxide catalyst systems, which simultaneously realizes the superior reactivity and durability for catalyzing ozone decomposition. First-principles calculations reveal that the ubiquitous surface hydroxyls on the layered hydroxide serve as the reactive sites and the redox cycle is achieved by a robust H-transfer mechanism in the 2D confined LDH systems, which are responsible for the extraordinary activity and resistance of LDH catalysts.

The escalating environmental issues resulting from waste plastic necessitate innovative decomposition methods that optimize conversion rates and product selectivity. In this study, we demonstrate that linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) can be effectively hydrothermolyzed into C1 − C4 compounds with a selectivity of 100 % in the presence of trace water on H-ZSM-5 catalyst under a relatively low temperature of 220 °C. Water plays a dual role here as both a solvent and a reactant. It was found the density of Brønsted acid sites is crucial for LLDPE decomposition, serving as the primary active centers for cracking LLDPE chains. In-situ EPR studies indicate a synergistic mechanism of free radical and carbenium ion pathways in LLDPE depolymerization. Density Functional Theory (DFT) simulations show that the depolymerization starts with the cleavage of a C–C bond in polyethylene, instigated by a hydrogen radical from the Brønsted acid site, leading to various intermediate stages for the formation of tert -butanol, acetone and acetic acid from two potential pathways. The presence of water is crucial in these pathways, aiding bond breakages and the creation of oxygenated products in the Brønsted acid site. This study represents a substantial leap forward in sustainable methodologies for upcycling plastic waste.

Despite the supported Au demonstrating superior activity in catalyzing various reactions, their stubborn and widespread deactivation issue has long remained unsolved. Therefore, the challenge in current investigations of Au-based catalysts could be divided into two aspects: uncovering the authentic molecular induction for the deactivated evolution and fabricating interfacial structures combining efficiency and stability. In this work, by incorporating NiO x (H) adjacent to small active Au 1 /Au n species, the as-formed 0.5Au-5NiO x (H)/CeO 2 catalyst simultaneously achieved high reactivity ( r = 5.23 mmol CO ·g Au −1 ·s −1 ) toward the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction and remarkable long-term stability with time-on-stream of 100 h at 250 °C, significantly surpassing the reference Au/CeO 2 counterpart as well as the other oxides-supported Au catalysts reported previously. Comprehensive in-situ characterizations and DFT calculations revealed that the CO molecules, rather than H 2 , H 2 O, or CO 2 molecules, are the dominant molecular driver for Au aggregation, correspondingly inducing the degraded catalytic efficiency. Specifically, on the one hand, the strong CO−Au coordination degraded the ejection barrier of Au atoms from Au-Au coordination; on the other hand, the −OH groups as intermediates from H 2 O dissociation, participating in the stabilization of Au species upon the surface, were dynamically consumed by CO molecules. For these regards, the adjacent Ni adatoms promote the sufficient generation of stable −OH groups for stabilizing Au atoms under WGS reaction. As a result, the corresponding Au−Au ejection and Au−O diffusion barriers of as-formed Au n −O(H)−Ni/CeO 2 combinations are significantly enlarged, which thereby boosts the structural stability in the CO-containing atmospheres.

A universal photoassisted pathway to functionalize polymeric surfaces is presented by transferring the inert surface sp 3 C H bonds into reactive groups, such as SO 3 H, NH 2 , SH, and COOH. The proposed method uses acetone as photoinitiator and different phenols with a para substituent XR as the reactants. Acetone excited by UV irradiation acts as a pair of scissors cutting both the surface C H bonds of the polymer substrate and the O H bonds of phenol, leading to the formation of carbon-centered surface chain free radicals and oxygen-centered phenoxy free radicals. By coupling of these two radicals, a variety of functional X groups with an R spacer from XR species of different phenol reactants were readily bonded to the polymeric surfaces, where phenol reactants included 4-hydroxylbenzene sulfonic acid for SO 3 H, p -aminophenol and tyramine for NH 2 , 4-hydroxythiophenol for SH, and tyrosine for COOH. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Although noble metal electrocatalysts are highly efficient in the dehalogenation of halogenated antibiotics, the prohibitive cost hinders their practical applications. In this study, a cobalt-phosphorous/oxide (Co P/O) composite prepared via a one-step electrodeposition was for the first time applied in electroreductive dechlorination of halogenated antibiotics (HA), including chloramphenicol (CAP), florfenicol (FLO) and thiamphenicol (TAP). Co P/O had a higher FLO dechlorination efficiency (91%) than Pd/C (69.3%) (t = 60 min, C 0 = 20 mg L −1 , applied voltage of −1.2 V vs. saturated calomel electrode (SCE)). Furthermore, the dechlorination efficiencies of Co P/O for CAP and TAP reached to 98.7 and 74.2%, respectively. The electron spin resonance and in situ Raman characterizations confirmed that atomic H* was produced via the Co P and the formation of Co Cl bonds occurred on the Co O in Co P/O. The Co Cl bond formation could trap HA molecules onto Co P/O and weaken the C Cl bond strength. The synergistic effect of H* attack and Co Cl bond was responsible for the high dechlorination efficiency. This study offers new insights into the interface mechanism of electroreductive dehalogenation process, and shows a great potential for the remediation of halogenated antibiotics contaminated wastewater.

Quinazolinone-based boron difluoride (BF 2 ) complexes were developed for the synthesis of dihydroisoquinolones, 2-phenylisoindolinone, 1-isochromanone and diarylketone through α-C(sp 3 )-H photooxidation. Seven selected quinazolinone-based BF 2 complexes exhibited good activity for photooxidation reaction using air as oxidant. It is worth noting that quinazolinone-based BF 2 as photocatalysts do not require the introduction of halogen heavy atoms to improve catalytic activity. Mechanism exploration indicated these BF 2 catalysts may involve a single electron transfer (SET) mediated photoredox catalysis to achieve α-C(sp3)-H oxidation. These quinazolinone-based BF 2 catalysts with facile preparation and structural modifiability would be good choice for organic oxidative transformation in the future.

Solar light driven hydrogen evolution is a prospective strategy to solve the energy problem. However, the poor photoresponse, low photocurrent density and easy electron-hole recombination remarkably restrict the HER activity of the conventional photocatalyst. Herein, we constructed a CdS@hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) heterostructure on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to synthesize a ternary CdS@h-BN/rGO catalyst via a structural reconstruction strategy. The CdS@h-BN heterointerface promoted the electrons transferring to the CdS active centers from the valence band of h-BN under photoinduction, overcoming the wide bandgap defect of pristine h-BN. The easily photoexcited property of CdS cocatalyst resulted in superhigh photocurrent density (2.7·μA cm −2 ) under simulated solar light, which was 3.3-fold greater of pristine CdS NPs. Meanwhile, the interfacial interactions of three components remarkably restrained the carriers recombination. Hence, the resultant ternary hybrid catalyst presented remarkably improved photoresponse and interfacial conductivity, thereby the optimal catalyst represented remarkably enhanced HER activity (6465.33 μmol h −1 g −1 ) under simulated solar light, which was about 10.9-fold greater of the pristine CdS NPs and 218.3-fold greater of the optimal h-BN/rGO hybrid. About 19.8 % of apparent quantum yield was achieved under illumination of λ =420 nm, and the excellent regenerability and durability were represented during six cycles and 20 h of continued illumination. Thereby, this study provides a prospective idea for constructing low-cost nonprecious metal based photocatalyst with highly efficient HER performance.
