Photodriven nonoxidative coupling of CH4 (NOCM) is a potential alternative approach to clean hydrogen and hydrocarbon production. Herein, Mott–Schottky photocatalyst for NOCM fabricated by loading Pt nanoclusters on Ga-doped hierarchical porous TiO2–SiO2 microarray with an anatase framework, which exhibits conversion rate 3.48 μmol g–1 h–1 90% selectivity toward C2H6. This activity 13 times higher than those from microarrays without Ga. Moreover, continuous H2 production (36 g–1) high ∼28%...
Semiconductor supported noble metal nanoparticles are widely used in H 2 evolution. Due to the high cost and low catalytic efficiency of metals, single‐atom catalysts (SACs) considered as very potential materials overcome these shortcomings. Herein, construction ZnO–ZnS heterojunction with an excess amount Zn vacancies promotes separation charge carriers improves utilization electrons. Meanwhile, zinc on ZnS provide effective anchor sites for Pt atoms, which is beneficial obtain highly...
Traditional defect engineering and doping strategies are considered effective means for improving H2 evolution, but the uncontrollability of modification process does not always lead to efficient activity. A defect-induced heteroatom refilling strategy is used here synthesize heteroatoms introduced carbon nitride by precisely controlling "introduction" sites on N1 sites. Density functional theory calculations show that B, P, S have stronger O adsorption dissociation capacity than traditional...
Reasonably utilizing solar energy to synthesize hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) from oxygen and water is a promising sustainable solution. In this work, we constructed an S-scheme photocatalyst ZnIn2S4/PDA (ZIS/PDA) by loading polydopamine (PDA) on the surface of ZnIn2S4, which significantly enhanced separation transfer photogenerated charge carriers while retaining excellent oxidation reduction abilities exhibited outstanding H2O2 production performance (1747 μmol·g–1·h–1) under visible light in...
A monofunctionalised pillar[5]arene derivative carrying a viologen side chain which exhibits self-complexation in dilute dichloromethane solutions forms supramolecular daisy polymers and eventually organogels as its concentration is increased three-fold over the range from 0.1 to 100 mM.
Gold recovery using environmentally benign chemistry is imperative from an environmental perspective. Here we report the spontaneous assembly of a one-dimensional supramolecular complex with extended {[K(OH2)6][AuBr4] (α-cyclodextrin)2}n chain superstructure formed during rapid co-precipitation α-cyclodextrin and KAuBr4 in water. This phase change selective for this gold salt, even presence other square-planar palladium platinum complexes. From single-crystal X-ray analyses six inclusion...
Ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complexes have emerged both as promising probes of DNA structure and anticancer agents because their unique photophysical cytotoxic properties. A key consideration in the administration those therapeutic is optimization chemical reactivities to allow facile attack on target sites, yet avoid unwanted side effects. Here, we present a drug delivery platform technology, obtained by grafting surface mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) with ruthenium(II)...
Carbon dot modified mesoporous silica is applied to the efficient removal of both organic and inorganic contaminants.
In the field of green chemistry, producing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) via photocatalysis could be a promising method for obtaining chemical feedstock during industrial and environmental processes. Herein, we simultaneously introduced inverse opal (IO) structure carbon vacancies (CVs) into nitride to improve H2O2 production by photocatalysis. Experimental results reveal that, after visible light irradiation 2 h, IO (IO CN-Cv) shows generation value 325.74 μM over 1.69, 2.13, 1.84 times more...
Well dispersed TiO2 nanocrystals with (001) facets were successfully grown in situ on g-C3N4 through a facial solvothermal method. The resultant TiO2/g-C3N4 composites exhibit remarkably higher efficiency for photocatalytic degradation of phenol as compared to pure catalysts (g-C3N4 or TiO2) mechanically mixed TiO2/g-C3N4. optimal composite 11.2 wt% showed the highest rate constant, which is 2.8 times that g-C3N4, 2.2 TiO2, and 1.4 enhanced activity mainly attributed effective charge...
Motor molecules present in nature convert energy inputs, such as a chemical fuel or incident photons of light, into directed motion and force biochemical systems away from thermal equilibrium. The ability not only to control relative movements components but also drive their preferentially one direction each other using versatile stimuli is the keys future technological applications. Herein, we describe wholly synthetic small-molecule system that, under influence reagents, electrical...
