Abstract

This study explores an innovative photocatalytic approach using pristine graphitic carbon nitride (C₃N₄) to anchor iron salen-type complexes (FeSalenCl₂) without the need for additional linkers or heterojunctions. The resulting hybrid catalyst, [C₃N₄-FeCl(Salen)]_Chem, exhibits a promising catalytic performance in the selective epoxidation of cyclic and linear olefins using gaseous oxygen as the oxidant. The catalyst’s selectivity closely resembles that of the free iron complex, and its effectiveness varies depending on the olefin substrate. Additionally, solvent selection plays a critical role in achieving optimal performance, with acetonitrile proving to be the best choice. The study demonstrates the potential of C₃N₄ as an environmentally friendly, recyclable, and efficient support for molecular catalysts. The results highlight the versatility and significance of C₃N₄-based materials in advancing light-driven catalysis.

氮化石墨碳表面共价锚定分子催化剂在烯烃光催化环氧化中的应用

本研究探索了一种创新的光催化方法，即利用原始石墨氮化碳（C3N4）锚定铁莎伦类络合物（FeSalenCl2），而无需额外的连接体或杂结。由此产生的混合催化剂 [C3N4-FeCl（Salen）]Chem，在以气态氧为氧化剂的环状和线性烯烃的选择性环氧化反应中表现出良好的催化性能。该催化剂的选择性与游离铁络合物的选择性十分相似，其有效性因烯烃底物的不同而不同。此外，溶剂的选择在实现最佳性能方面起着关键作用，乙腈被证明是最佳选择。这项研究证明了 C3N4 作为一种环保、可回收和高效的分子催化剂载体的潜力。研究结果凸显了基于 C3N4 的材料在推进光驱动催化方面的多功能性和重要性。
