Facile synthetic routes for photocatalytic Pb₃(BTC)₂·H₂O coordination polymers.

ABSTRACT: Herein, we report on the successful synthesis of photocatalytic Pb₃(BTC)₂·H₂O polymers via different methods including the surfactant-assisted hydrothermal method, ultrasonic method and reflux method. As the crystal growth is subjected to preparation atmosphere, changes in reaction conditions do not alter the crystal structures of products, but vary their morphology. High ultraviolet-light-driven photocatalytic abilities are attributed to the stable Pb₃(BTC)₂·H₂O, and the effective productions of h⁺ and ˙OH on the catalysts.

Designing of Pb(II)-Based Novel Coordination Polymers (CPs): Structural Elucidation and Optoelectronic Application.

Project description:[Pb2(bdc)1.5(aiz)] n (1) and [Pb2(bdc)1.5(aiz)(MeOH)2] n (2) (H2bdc = 1,4-benzene dicarboxylic acid, aiz = (E)-N'-(thiophen-2-ylmethylene)isonicotinohydrazide) have been synthesized, and structural characterization has been established by X-ray analysis and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Here, bdc2- links two Pb(II) centers and the aiz ligand binds the metal centers in two different manners: chelating and monodonating. Thus, polymerizations have taken place from the combination of mixed ligand system. Optical band gaps have been studied via UV measurements. Again, the experimental and calculated (from density functional theory (DFT)) band gaps agree well and the semiconducting properties of synthesized polymeric materials have been approved. Thus, optoelectronic and photonic devices can be made by this type of coordination polymers (CPs). The I-V representative curves of 1 (device-A) and 2 (device-B) in both dark and illuminated conditions show that device-A has a higher magnitude of current than device-B. Dark- and photo-conductivity values of device-A are calculated as 2.94 × 10-6 and 6.12 × 10-6 S m-1, respectively, whereas for device-B, the values of dark- and photo-conductivity are 2.92 × 10-7 and 3.66 × 10-7 S m-1, respectively, at room temperature.

CNTs/Fe-BTC Composite Materials for the CO2-Photocatalytic Reduction to Clean Fuels: Batch and Continuous System.

Project description:CNTs/Fe-BTC composite materials were synthesized with the one-step solvothermal method. MWCNTs and SWCNTs were incorporated in situ during synthesis. The composite materials were characterized by different analytical techniques and used in the CO2-photocatalytic reduction to value-added products and clean fuels. In the incorporation of CNTs into Fe-BTC, better physical-chemical and optical properties were observed compared to Fe-BTC pristine. SEM images showed that CNTs were incorporated into the porous structure of Fe-BTC, indicating the synergy between them. Fe-BTC pristine showed to be selective to ethanol and methanol; although, it was more selective to ethanol. However, the incorporation of small amounts of CNTs into Fe-BTC not only showed higher production rates but changes in the selectivity compared with the Fe-BTC pristine were also observed. It is important to mention that the incorporation of CNTs into MOF Fe-BTC allowed for increasing the mobility of electrons, decreasing the recombination of charge carriers (electron/hole), and increasing the photocatalytic activity. In both reaction systems (batch and continuous), composite materials showed to be selective towards methanol and ethanol; however, in the continuous system, lower production rates were observed due to the decrease in the residence time compared to the batch system. Therefore, these composite materials are very promising systems to convert CO2 to clean fuels that could replace fossil fuels soon.

Dye-incorporated coordination polymers for direct photocatalytic trifluoromethylation of aromatics at metabolically susceptible positions.

Project description:Direct trifluoromethylation of unactivated aromatic rings at metabolically susceptible positions is highly desirable in pharmaceutical applications. By incorporating thiophenes into the backbone of triphenylamine to enlarge its π-system, a new approach for constructing coordination polymers is reported for direct trifluoromethylation without prefunctionalization of the aryl precursors. The improved light-harvesting ability and well-modulated excited state redox potential of the designed polymers endow the generated CF3 radicals with suitable reactivity and enhance radical adduct oxidation in pores. The well-configurated interactions between the organic ligands distort the coordination geometry to create active interaction sites within the coordination polymer; thus, the substrates could be docked near the photoredox-active centres. The synergistic electronic and spatial effects in the confined pores balance the contradictory demands of electronic effects and reaction dynamics, achieving regio- and diastereoselective discrimination among reaction sites with unremarkable electronic/steric differences.

Facile synthesis of laccase mimic Cu/H3BTC MOF for efficient dye degradation and detection of phenolic pollutants.

Project description:Herein, we report an effectual method for designing a novel form of nanozyme laccase mimic namely Cu/H3BTC, using copper ions and 1,3,5-benzene tricarboxylic acid (1,3,5-H3BTC). This Cu-based metal-organic framework (MOF) was synthesized through a simple procedure of mixing of two usual reagents at room temperature. Amido Black 10B (AB-10B) was chosen as a model dye for degradation consequences. Results showed that Cu/H3BTC MOF revealed significantly higher catalytic efficacy under certain conditions like high pH, extreme temperature and high salt conditions and it has long-term storage stability, which can lead to a significant decline in catalytic activity of laccase. In addition, the degradation of AB-10B was up to 60% after ten cycles, showing good recyclability of Cu/H3BTC MOF. The UV-visible spectral changes clearly showed that Cu/H3BTC MOF is an effective laccase mimic for the degradation of azo dye AB-10B, which was degraded more easily within the time duration of 60 min. The Cu/H3BTC MOF also possessed fundamental activities like laccase with regard to oxidation of the phenolic compounds. Moreover, a technique for the quantitative detection of epinephrine by Cu/H3BTC MOF was established. These findings help to understand the laccase-like reactivity and provide a basis for the future design and application of metal-based catalysts.

M-Carboxylic Acid Induced Formation of New Coordination Polymers for Efficient Photocatalytic Degradation of Ciprofloxacin.

Project description:Four new 2-3D materials were designed and synthesized by hydrothermal methods, namely, {[(L1·Cu·2H2O) (4,4-bipy)0.5] (β-Mo8O26)0.5·H2O} (1), {[(L1·Cu)2·(4,4-bipy)] (Mo5O16)} (2), {Co(L1)2}n&nbsp;(3), and {[(L1)2][β-Mo8O26]0.5·5H2O} (4). [L1=5-(4-aminopyridine) isophthalic acid]. The degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) in water by compounds 1-4 was studied under visible light. The experimental results show that compounds 1-4 have obvious photocatalytic degradation effect on CIP. In addition, for compound 1, the effects of temperature, pH, and adsorbent dosage on photocatalytic performance were also investigated. The stability of compound 1 was observed by a cycle experiment, indicating that there was no significant change after three cycles of CIP degradation.

Facile Construction Engineering of Pr6O11@C with Efficient Photocatalytic Activity.

Project description:In this study, facile construction engineering of Pr6O11@C with efficient photocatalytic activity was established. Taking advantage of the flocculation of Pr3+ in the base medium, acid red 14 (AR14) was flocculated together with Pr(OH)3 precipitate, in which Pr(OH)3 and AR14 mixed highly uniformly. Calcinated at high temperature in N2, a novel Pr6O11@C was successfully synthesized. The resulting materials were characterized by XRD, SEM, FT-IR, Raman, and XPS techniques. The results show that the cubic Pr6O11@C with Fm3m space group, similar to that of Pr6O11, was obtained. From the results of the photodegradation of AR14, it is found that the photocatalytic efficiency of Pr6O11@C is higher than that of pure Pr6O11 due to the formation of abundant carbon bonds and oxygen vacancies. Compared with pure Pr6O11 and other carbon-based composites, the acid resistance of Pr6O11@C is greatly improved due to the highly uniform dispersion of Pr6O11 and C, which lays a solid foundation for the practical application of Pr6O11@C. Moreover, the role of NH3·H2O and NaOH used as precipitants for the photocatalytic efficiency of Pr6O11 was investigated in detail.

Reticular Imine-Linked Coordination Polymers Based on Paddlewheel Diruthenium/Dirhodium Nodes: Synthesis and Metal-Site Dependent Photocatalytic Reduction of CO2.

Project description:The paddlewheel-type dimetal core ([M2]) is a ubiquitous motif in the nodes in coordination polymers (CPs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). However, their preparation has relied on ligand-substitution-labile metal ions owing to challenges associated with crystallization. Consequently, examples featuring ligand-substitution-inert metal ions, such as Ru or Rh, are scarce. This study presents the synthesis of novel reticular imine-linked CPs incorporating the paddlewheel-type diruthenium(II, II) ([Ru2 II,II]; 1-Ru) or dirhodium(II, II) ([Rh2 II,II]; 1-Rh) subunits. The synthetic approach involved a Schiff base dehydration condensation reaction between p-formylbenzoate-bridged [Ru2 II,II] or [Rh2 II,II] precursors (i. e., CHO-Ru and CHO-Rh, respectively) and 2,5-dimethyl-1,4-phenylenediamine in a 1 : 2 ratio. The catalytic activities of 1-Ru and 1-Rh for the photochemical reduction of CO2 in a heterogeneous system depended on the metal site. The 1-Ru system exhibited exceptional selectivity, generating 3.0×104 μmol g-1 of CO after 24 h of irradiation, whereas the 1-Rh system generated a lower amount of CO (3.2×103 μmol g-1). The catalytic activity of 1-Ru ranked with that of all relevant catalytic systems. This study paves the way for the exploration of [Ru2 II,II]- or [Rh2 II,II]-based polymers with open metal site-dependent functional properties.

One-Pot Facile Synthesis of CuO-CdWO4 Nanocomposite for Photocatalytic Hydrogen Production.

Project description:Hydrogen (H2) is a well-known renewable energy source that produces water upon its burning, leaving no harmful emissions. Nanotechnology is utilized to increase hydrogen production using sacrificial reagents. It is an interesting task to develop photocatalysts that are effective, reliable, and affordable for producing H2 from methanol and acetic acid. In the present study, CuO, CdWO4, and CuO-CdWO4 nanocomposite heterostructures were prepared using a cost-efficient, enviro-friendly, and facile green chemistry-based approach. The prepared CuO, CdWO4, and CuO-CdWO4 nanocomposites were characterized using X-ray diffraction pattern, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction (SAED) pattern, N2 physisorption, photoluminescence, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy techniques. The synthesized photocatalysts were utilized for photocatalytic H2 production using aqueous methanol and acetic acid as the sacrificial reagents under visible light irradiation. The influence of different variables, including visible light irradiation time, catalyst dosage, concentration of sacrificial reagents, and reusability of catalysts, was studied. The maximum H2 was observed while using methanol as a sacrificial agent over CuO-CdWO4 nanocomposite. This enhancement was due to the faster charge separation, higher visible light absorption, and synergistic effect between the CuO-CdWO4 nanocomposite and methanol.

Facile Vacuum Annealing-Induced Modification of TiO2 with an Enhanced Photocatalytic Performance.

Project description:In this work, the photocatalytic performance enhancement of hydrothermally prepared TiO2 was achieved by facile vacuum annealing treatment. Calcination of TiO2 powder in air (CA-TiO2) maintained its white color, while gray powder was obtained when the annealing was performed under vacuum (CV-TiO2). Fourier transform infrared, total organic carbon, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electron paramagnetic resonance analyses proved that vacuum annealing transformed ethanol adsorbed on the surface of TiO2 into carbon-related species accompanied by the formation of surface oxygen vacancies (Vo). The residual carbon-related species on the surface of CV-TiO2 favored its adsorption of organic dyes. Compared with TiO2 and CA-TiO2, CV-TiO2 exhibited an improved charge carrier separation with surface Vo as trapping sites for electrons. Vacuum annealing-induced improvement of crystallinity, enhancement of adsorption capacity, and formation of surface Vo contributed to the excellent photocatalytic activity of CV-TiO2, which was superior to that of commercial TiO2 (P25, Degussa). Obviously, vacuum annealing-triggered decomposition of ethanol played an important role in the modification of TiO2. In the presence of ethanol, vacuum annealing was also suitable for the introduction of Vo into P25. Therefore, the current work offers an easy approach for the modification of TiO2 to enhance its photocatalytic performance by facile vacuum annealing in the presence of ethanol.

Crystal structure of [NaZn(BTC)(H2O)4]·1.5H2O (BTC = benzene-1,3,5-tri-carb-oxy-l-ate): a heterometallic coordination compound.

Project description:The title coordination polymer, poly[[μ-aqua-tri-aqua-(μ3-benzene-1,3,5-tri-carboxyl-ato)sodiumzinc] sesquihydrate], {[NaZn(C9H3O6)(H2O)4]·1.5H2O} n , was obtained in ionic liquid microemulsion at room temperture by the reaction of benzene-1,3,5-tri-carb-oxy-lic acid (H3BTC) with Zn(NO3)2·6H2O in the presence of NaOH. The asymmetric unit comprises two Na(+) ions (each located on an inversion centre), one Zn(2+) ion, one BTC ligand, four coordinating water mol-ecules and two solvent water molecules, one of which is disordered about an inversion centre and shows half-occupation. The Zn(2+) cation is five-coordinated by two carboxyl-ate O atoms from two different BTC ligands and three coordinating H2O mol-ecules; the Zn-O bond lengths are in the range 1.975 (2)-2.058 (3) Å. The Na(+) cations are six-coordinated but have different arrangements of the ligands: one is bound to two carboxyl-ate O atoms of two BTC ligands and four O atoms from four coordinating H2O mol-ecules while the other is bound by four carboxyl-ate O atoms from four BTC linkers and two O atoms of coordinating H2O mol-ecules. The completely deprotonated BTC ligand acts as a bridging ligand binding the Zn(2+) atom and Na(+) ions, forming a layered structure extending parallel to (100). An intricate network of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds is present within and between the layers.
