Enhancing the quantum yield of singlet oxygen: photocatalytic degradation of mustard gas simulant 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide catalyzed by a hybrid of polyhydroxyl aluminum cations and porphyrin anions.

ABSTRACT: By combining the anionic salt meso-tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP^4-) and the Keggin polyoxometalate cation cluster [Al₁₃O₄(OH)₂₄(H₂O)₁₂]⁷⁺ via a simple ion-exchange method, a hybrid (C₄₈H₂₆N₄O₈)[Al₁₃O₄(OH)₂₄(H₂O)₁₂]₂(OH)₁₀·18H₂O (Al₁₃-TCPP) was prepared and thoroughly characterized as a prototype of polyoxometalate-porphyrin hybrids for the photocatalytic degradation of the mustard gas simulant 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES). The experimental results showed that the catalytic degradation rate of CEES in the presence of Al₁₃-TCPP reached 96.16 an
