The successful construction of porphyrin functionalized metallacycle in the confined cavity mesoporous carbon FDU-16 (3⊂C) is presented this study. Because high dispersity metallacycles within cavities, stability and activity porphyrin-containing were obviously improved. For example, 1O2 generation efficiency 3⊂C ca. 6-fold faster than that free metallaycles solution. Thus, resultant hybrid material has been successfully employed as a heterogeneous catalyst for photooxidation sulfides.
