Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks provided an advantageous platform for photo-catalysis owing to their designable structure and tunable photo-electric characteristic. However, the catalytic performance of MOFs often suffered from poor chem-stability, low visible light absorption and inefficient photogenerated charge separation. In this work, through the solvent-assisted ligand incorporation method, a carboxylate-derivatized naphthaleneimide moiety (HBNDI) was successfully integrated into pyrene-cored NU-1000 to establish a mixed-ligand BNDI-NU-1000. Photo-electric measurements and DFT calculations revealed that BNDI-NU-1000 was a typical donor-acceptor system owing to the rapid charge transfer between electron-rich pyrene and electron-deficient naphthaleneimide. Due to the synergetic effect of efficient photo-induced electron transfer and energy transfer, BNDI-NU-1000 displayed high catalytic activity in the visible-light-driven aerobic oxidation of benzylamine coupling. This study opened up a promising avenue to develop viable donor-acceptor photo-catalysts for organic transformation.
期刊介绍:
Microporous and Mesoporous Materials covers novel and significant aspects of porous solids classified as either microporous (pore size up to 2 nm) or mesoporous (pore size 2 to 50 nm). The porosity should have a specific impact on the material properties or application. Typical examples are zeolites and zeolite-like materials, pillared materials, clathrasils and clathrates, carbon molecular sieves, ordered mesoporous materials, organic/inorganic porous hybrid materials, or porous metal oxides. Both natural and synthetic porous materials are within the scope of the journal.
Topics which are particularly of interest include:
All aspects of natural microporous and mesoporous solids
The synthesis of crystalline or amorphous porous materials
The physico-chemical characterization of microporous and mesoporous solids, especially spectroscopic and microscopic
The modification of microporous and mesoporous solids, for example by ion exchange or solid-state reactions
All topics related to diffusion of mobile species in the pores of microporous and mesoporous materials
Adsorption (and other separation techniques) using microporous or mesoporous adsorbents
Catalysis by microporous and mesoporous materials
Host/guest interactions
Theoretical chemistry and modelling of host/guest interactions
All topics related to the application of microporous and mesoporous materials in industrial catalysis, separation technology, environmental protection, electrochemistry, membranes, sensors, optical devices, etc.
