Z‐Scheme Photocatalytic Water Splitting on a 2D Heterostructure of Black Phosphorus/Bismuth Vanadate Using Visible Light

Spontaneously solar‐driven water splitting to produce H₂ and O₂, that is, the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy is a dream of mankind. However, it is difficult to make overall water splitting feasible without using any sacrificial agents and external bias. Drawing inspiration from nature, a new artificial Z‐scheme photocatalytic system has been designed herein based on the two‐dimensional (2D) heterostructure of black phosphorus (BP)/bismuth vanadate (BiVO₄). An effective charge separation makes possible the reduction and oxidation of water on BP and BiVO₄, respectively. The optimum H₂ and O₂ production rates on BP/BiVO₄ were approximately 160 and 102 μmol g^?1 h^?1 under irradiation of light with a wavelength longer than 420 nm, without using any sacrificial agents or external bias.     

The Direct Partial Oxidation of Methane to Dimethyl Ether over Pt/Y2O3 Catalysts Using an NO/O2 Shuttle

Using a mixture of NO + O₂ as the oxidant enabled the direct selective oxidation of methane to dimethyl ether (DME) over Pt/Y₂O₃. The reaction was carried out in a fixed bed reactor at 0.1 MPa over a temperature range of 275–375 °C. During the activity tests, the only carbon‐containing products were DME and CO₂. The DME productivity (μmol g_cat^?1 h^?1) was comparable to oxygenate productivities reported in the literature for strong oxidants (N₂O, H₂O₂, O₃). The NO + O₂ mixture formed NO₂, which acted as the oxygen atom carrier for the ultimate oxidant O₂. During the methane partial oxidation reaction, NO and NO₂ were not reduced to N₂. In situ FTIR showed the formation of surface nitrate species, which are considered to be key intermediate species for the selective oxidation.     

Semiconductor/Covalent‐Organic‐Framework Z‐Scheme Heterojunctions for Artificial Photosynthesis

A strategy to covalently connect crystalline covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with semiconductors to create stable organic–inorganic Z‐scheme heterojunctions for artificial photosynthesis is presented. A series of COF–semiconductor Z‐scheme photocatalysts combining water‐oxidation semiconductors (TiO₂, Bi₂WO₆, and α‐Fe₂O₃) with CO₂ reduction COFs (COF‐316/318) was synthesized and exhibited high photocatalytic CO₂‐to‐CO conversion efficiencies (up to 69.67 μmol g^?1 h^?1), with H₂O as the electron donor in the gas–solid CO₂ reduction, without additional photosensitizers and sacrificial agents. This is the first report of covalently bonded COF/inorganic‐semiconductor systems utilizing the Z‐scheme applied for artificial photosynthesis. Experiments and calculations confirmed efficient semiconductor‐to‐COF electron transfer by covalent coupling, resulting in electron accumulation in the cyano/pyridine moieties of the COF for CO₂ reduction and holes in the semiconductor for H₂O oxidation, thus mimicking natural photosynthesis.     

Novel organic/inorganic PDI-Urea/BiOBr S-scheme heterojunction for improved photocatalytic antibiotic degradation and H2O2 production

The matched energy band structure and efficient carrier separation efficiency are the keys to heterogeneous photocatalytic reactions. A novel organic/inorganic step scheme (S-scheme) heterojunction PDI-Urea/BiOBr composite photocatalyst was constructed by simple solvothermal reaction combined with in-situ growth strategy. The composite photocatalyst not only has high chemical stability, but also can generate and accumulate a large number of active species (h⁺, ^?O₂^?, ^?OH, H₂O₂). PDI-Urea/BiOBr showed higher photocatalytic activity for the degradation of antibiotic such as ofloxacin (OFLO), tetracycline (TC) and the production of H₂O₂ in the spectral range of 400–800 nm. The apparent rate constant of 15% PDI-Urea/BiOBr for photocatalytic degradation of TC (or OFLO) was 2.7 (or 2.5) times that of pure BiOBr and 1.7 (or 1.8) times that of pure PDI-Urea. The H₂O₂ evolution rate of 15% PDI-Urea/BiOBr was 2.5 times that of PDI-Urea and 1.5 times that of BiOBr, respectively. This work has formed a mature S-scheme heterojunction design thought and method, which offers new visions for the development of heterogeneous photocatalysts.     

Heterojunction architecture of Nb2O5/g-C3N4 for enhancing photocatalytic activity to degrade organic pollutants and deactivate bacteria in water

Water pollution has become a serious problem owing to the development of society. Photocatalysis is a promising approach to remove various pollutants in water, such as organic pollutants and antibiotic resistance bacteria. Meanwhile, the design of heterojunction between two semiconductors is an effective path to improve photocatalytic properties due to its potential in improving separation and transfer of photoinduced carriers. In this study, Nb₂O₅/g-C₃N₄ (NO/CN) composite materials were prepared through a one-step heating method. Characterizations confirmed successful preparation of NO/CN heterojunction structure and better optical properties than pure g-C₃N₄ and Nb₂O₅. NO/CN composite materials showed excellent photocatalytic efficiency for Escherichia coli (E. coli) inactivation (95%) compared with the pure Nb₂O₅ (10%) and g-C₃N₄ (77%). Meanwhile, NO/CN exhibited better organic pollutants removal (RhB for 94%, methyl orange (MO) for 15% and methylene blue (MB) for 87%) under visible light, which is likely owing to the heterojunction structure between g-C₃N₄ and Nb₂O₅ that leads to the good separation of photogenerated electron-hole pair. Free radical scavenging and electron spin resonance (ESR) experiments demonstrated that superoxide radicals (^?O₂^?) and holes (h⁺) were the dominant radicals. Therefore, the NO/CN was proposed to be a promising material for effective disinfection and removal of organic contaminants in water treatment.

Conversion of NO in NO/N2, NO/O2/N2, NO/C2H4/N2 and NO/C2H4/O2/N2 Systems by Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasmas

An experimental study on the conversion of NO in the NO/N₂, NO/O₂/N₂, NO/C₂H₄/N₂ and NO/C₂H₄/O₂/N₂ systems has been carried out using dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasmas at atmospheric pressure. In the NO/N₂ system, NO decomposition to N₂ and O₂ is the dominating reaction; NO conversion to NO₂ is less significant. O₂ produced from NO decomposition was detected by an on-line mass spectrometer. With the increase of NO initial concentration, the concentration of O₂ produced decreases at 298 K, but slightly increases at 523 K. In the NO/O₂/N₂ system, NO is mainly oxidized to NO₂, but NO conversion becomes very low at 523 K and over 1.6% of O₂. In the NO/C₂H₄/N₂ system, NO is reduced to N₂ with about the same NO conversion as that in the NO/N₂ system but without NO₂ formation. In the NO/C₂H₄/O₂/N₂ system, the oxidation of NO to NO₂ is dramatically promoted. At 523 K, with the increase of the energy density, NO conversion increases rapidly first, and then almost stabilizes at 93–91% of NO conversion with 61–55% of NO₂ selectivity in the energy density range of 317–550 J L⁻¹. It finally decreases gradually at high energy density. A negligible amount of N₂O is formed in the above four systems. Of the four systems studied, NO conversion and NO₂ selectivity of the NO/C₂H₄/O₂/N₂ system are the highest, and NO/O₂/C₂H₄/N₂ system has the lowest electrical energy consumption per NO molecule converted.     

Coupling Benzylamine Oxidation with CO2 Photoconversion to Ethanol over a Black Phosphorus and Bismuth Tungstate S-Scheme Heterojunction

Photoconversion of CO₂ and H₂O into ethanol is an ideal strategy to achieve carbon neutrality. However, the production of ethanol with high activity and selectivity is challenging owing to the less efficient reduction half-reaction involving multi-step proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), a slow C−C coupling process, and sluggish water oxidation half-reaction. Herein, a two-dimensional/two-dimensional (2D/2D) S-scheme heterojunction consisting of black phosphorus and Bi₂WO₆ (BP/BWO) was constructed for photocatalytic CO₂ reduction coupling with benzylamine (BA) oxidation. The as-prepared BP/BWO catalyst exhibits a superior photocatalytic performance toward CO₂ reduction, with a yield of 61.3 μmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹ for ethanol (selectivity of 91 %).In situ spectroscopic studies and theoretical calculations reveal that S-scheme heterojunction can effectively promote photogenerated carrier separation via the Bi−O−P bridge to accelerate the PCET process. Meanwhile, electron-rich BP acts as the active site and plays a vital role in the process of C−C coupling. In addition, the substitution of BA oxidation for H₂O oxidation can further enhance the photocatalytic performance of CO₂ reduction to C₂H₅OH. This work opens a new horizon for exploring novel heterogeneous photocatalysts in CO₂ photoconversion to C₂H₅OH based on cooperative photoredox systems.     

In Situ Synthesis of Cu3P/P-Doped g-C3N4 Tight 2D/2D Heterojunction Boosting Photocatalytic H2 Evolution†

Heterojunction design in a two-dimensional (2D) fashion has been deemed beneficial for improving the photocatalytic activity of g-C₃N₄ because of the promoted interfacial charge transfer, yet still facing challenges. Herein, we construct a novel 2D/2D Cu₃P nanosheet/P-doped g-C₃N₄ (PCN) nanosheet heterojunction photocatalyst (PCN/Cu₃P) through a simple in-situ phosphorization treatment of 2D/2D CuS/g-C₃N₄ composite for photocatalytic H₂ evolution. We demonstrate that the 2D lamellar structure of both CuS and g-C₃N₄ could be well reserved in the phosphorization process, while CuS and g-C₃N₄ in-situ transformed into Cu₃P and PCN, respectively, leading to the formation of PCN/Cu₃P tight 2D/2D heterojunction. Owing to the large contact area provided by intimate face-to-face 2D/2D structure, the PCN/Cu₃P photocatalyst exhibits significantly enhanced charge separation efficiency, thus achieving a boosted visible-light-driven photocatalytic behavior. The highest rate for H₂ evolution reaches 5.12 μmol·h^–1, nearly 24 times and 368 times higher than that of pristine PCN and g-C₃N₄, respectively. This work represents an excellent example in elaborately constructing g-C₃N₄-based 2D/2D heterostructure and could be extended to other photocatalyst/co-catalyst system.      

Fabrication of Crystalline Microporous Membrane from 2D MOF Nanosheets for Gas Separation

Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs)‐based membranes have shown great potentials as applications in gas separation. In this work, a uniform membrane based on 2D MOF Ni₃(HITP)₂ (HITP=2,3,6,7,10,11‐hexaaminotriphenylene) was fabricated on ordered macroporous AAO via the filtration method. To fabricate the membrane, we obtained the Ni₃(HITP)₂ nanosheets as building blocks via a soft‐physical exfoliation method successfully that were confirmed by AFM and TEM. We also studied the H₂, CO₂ and N₂ adsorption isotherms of Ni₃(HITP)₂ powder at room temperature, which shows Ni₃(HITP)₂ has high heats of adsorption for CO₂ and high selectivity of CO₂ over N₂. Gas permeation tests indicate that the Ni₃(HITP)₂ membrane shows high permeance and selectivity of CO₂ over N₂, as well as good selectivity of H₂ over N₂. The ideal separation factors of CO₂/N₂ and H₂/N₂ from sing‐gas permeances are 13.6 and 7.8 respectively, with CO₂ permeance of 3.15×10^?6 mol?m^?2?s^?1?Pa^?1. The membrane also showed good stability, durability and reproducibility, which are of potential interest for practical applications in the CO₂ separations.     

Formation of the Distinct Redox‐Interrelated Forms of Nitric Oxide from Reaction of Dinitrosyl Iron Complexes (DNICs) and Substitution Ligands

Release of the distinct NO redox‐interrelated forms (NO⁺, ^.NO, and HNO/NO^?), derived from reaction of the dinitrosyl iron complex (DNIC) [(NO)₂Fe(C₁₂H₈N)₂]^? ( 1 ) (C₁₂H₈N=carbazolate) and the substitution ligands (S₂CNMe₂)₂, [SC₆H₄‐o‐NHC(O)(C₅H₄N)]₂ ((PyPepS)₂), and P(C₆H₃‐3‐SiMe₃‐2‐SH)₃ ([P(SH)₃]), respectively, was demonstrated. In contrast to the reaction of (PyPepS)₂ and DNIC 1 in a 1:1 stoichiometry that induces the release of an NO radical and the formation of complex [PPN][Fe(PyPepS)₂] ( 4 ), the incoming substitution ligand (S₂CNMe₂)₂ triggered the transformation of DNIC 1 into complex [(NO)Fe(S₂CNMe₂)₂] ( 2 ) along with N‐nitrosocarbazole ( 3 ). The subsequent nitrosation of N‐acetylpenicillamine (NAP) by N‐nitrosocarbazole ( 3 ) to produce S‐nitroso‐N‐acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) may signify the possible formation pathway of S‐nitrosothiols from DNICs by means of transnitrosation of N‐nitrosamines. Protonation of DNIC 1 by [P(SH)₃] triggers the release of HNO and the generation of complex [PPN][Fe(NO)P(C₆H₃‐3‐SiMe₃‐2‐S)₃] ( 5 ). In a similar fashion, the nucleophilic attack of the chelating ligand P(C₆H₃‐3‐SiMe₃‐2‐SNa)₃ ([P(SNa)₃]) on DNIC 1 resulted in the direct release of [NO]^? captured by [(¹⁵NO)Fe(SPh)₃]^?, thus leading to [(¹⁵NO)(¹⁴NO)Fe(SPh)₂]^?. These results illustrate one aspect of how the incoming substitution ligands ((S₂CNMe₂)₂ vs. (PyPepS)₂ vs. [P(SH)₃]/[P(SNa)₃]) in cooperation with the carbazolate‐coordinated ligands of DNIC 1 function to control the release of NO⁺, ^.NO, or [NO]^? from DNIC 1 upon reaction of complex 1 and the substitution ligands. Also, these results signify that DNICs may act as an intermediary of NO in the redox signaling processes by providing the distinct redox‐interrelated forms of NO to interact with different NO‐responsive targets in biological systems.     

Synthesis of noble‐metal‐free ternary K7HNb6O19/Cd0.5Zn0.5S/g‐C3N4 tandem heterojunctions for efficient photocatalytic performance under visible light

Exploring noble‐metal‐free, highly active and durable catalysts is vital to get to grips with the energy and environmental issues. Herein, we first dexterously design and synthesize a class of ternary Nb₆/CZS/g‐CN photocatalysts for the removal of hexavalent chromium Cr (VI) and organic dye pollutant (MO) from wastewater under visible‐light irradiation. A heterojunction Nb₆–1/CZS/g‐CN loaded with 0.01 g K₇HNb₆O₁₉ showed excellent photocatalytic performance, with the MO photodegradation efficiency of 94% in 1 h and the Cr (VI) (150 mg/l) photoreduction efficiency as high as 91% in 2 hr. The main active species were deemed to be O₂^.‐. Additionally, the as‐prepared ternary heterojunction exhibits superior hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) rate. A heterojunction Nb₆–4/CZS/g‐CN loaded with 0.5 g K₇HNb₆O₁₉ exhibited the highest H₂ evolution rate as high as 1777.86 μmol h^?1 g^?1 under visible‐light illumination, which is increased to 5.7 and 2.7 times that of bare CZS and biphase heterojunction CZS/g‐CN_. These findings afford a new class of promising low‐cost photocatalyst bodying for its huge potential value in sustainable energy development and wastewater treatment.     

Flow reactor studies and kinetic modeling of the H2/O2/NOX and CO/H2O/O2/NOX reactions

Flow reactor experiments were performed over wide ranges of pressure (0.5–14.0 atm) and temperature (750–1100 K) to study H₂/O₂ and CO/H₂O/O₂ kinetics in the presence of trace quantities of NO and NO₂. The promoting and inhibiting effects of NO reported previously at near atmospheric pressures extend throughout the range of pressures explored in the present study. At conditions where the recombination reaction H + O₂ (+M) = HO₂ (+M) is favored over the competing branching reaction, low concentrations of NO promote H₂ and CO oxidation by converting HO₂ to OH. In high concentrations, NO can also inhibit oxidative processes by catalyzing the recombination of radicals. The experimental data show that the overall effects of NO addition on fuel consumption and conversion of NO to NO₂ depend strongly on pressure and stoichiometry. The addition of NO₂ was also found to promote H₂ and CO oxidation but only at conditions where the reacting mixture first promoted the conversion of NO₂ to NO. Experimentally measured profiles of H₂, CO, CO₂, NO, NO₂, O₂, H₂O, and temperature were used to constrain the development of a detailed kinetic mechanism consistent with the previously studied H₂/O₂, CO/H₂O/O₂, H₂/NO₂, and CO/H₂O/N₂O systems. Model predictions generated using the reaction mechanism presented here are in good agreement with the experimental data over the entire range of conditions explored. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

NOx-Sorbing Metal Oxides, MnOx–CeO2. Oxidative NO Adsorption and NOx–H2 Reaction

(n)MnO_x–(1?n)CeO₂ binary oxides have been studied for the sorptive NO removal and subsequent reduction of NO_x sorbed to N₂ at low temperatures (≤150 °C). The solid solution with a fluorite-type structure was found to be effective for oxidative NO adsorption, which yielded nitrate (NO^? ₃) and/or nitrite (NO^? ₂) species on the surface depending on temperature, O₂ concentration in the gas feed, and composition of the binary oxide (n). A surface reaction model was derived on the basis of XPS, TPD, and DRIFTS analyses. Redox of Mn accompanied by simultaneous oxygen equilibration between the surface and the gas phase promoted the oxidative NO adsorption. The reactivity of the adsorbed NO_x toward H₂ was examined for MnO_x–CeO₂ impregnated with Pd, which is known as a nonselective catalyst toward NO–H₂ reaction in the presence of excess oxygen. The Pd/MnO_x–CeO₂ catalyst after saturated by the NO uptake could be regenerated by micropulse injections of H₂ at 150 °C. Evidence was presented to show that the role of Pd is to generate reactive hydrogen atoms, which spillover onto the MnO_x–CeO₂ surface and reduce nitrite/nitrate adsorbing thereon. Because of the lower reducibility of nitrate and the competitive H₂–O₂ combustion, H₂–NO reaction was suppressed to a certain extent in the presence of O₂. Nevertheless, Pd/MnO_x–CeO₂ attained 65% NO-conversion in a steady stream of 0.08% NO, 2% H₂, and 6% O₂ in He at as low as 150 °C, compared to ca. 30% conversion for Pd/γ–Al₂O₃ at the same temperature. The combination of NO_x-sorbing materials and H₂-activation catalysts is expected to pave the way to development of novel NO_x-sorbing catalysts for selective deNO_x at very low temperatures.     

Removal of multiple pollutants from water using noble Ag/Au/magnetite/graphene/H2O2 system under light and ultrasound irradiation

Ag/Au/Fe₃O₄/graphene composites prepared by a hydrothermal method demonstrated excellent activation of H₂O₂ and were used to degrade methylene blue (MB) in solution in the presence of organic acids and inorganic ions under light and ultrasound irradiation. The physicochemical properties of the obtained composites were characterized using various methods. The results showed that the composites exhibited excellent magnetic properties, crystallinity, and stability. The results of catalysis experiments revealed that the removal efficiency of MB increased when Ag and Au were both incorporated into the Fe₃O₄/graphene/H₂O₂ system compared with the removal efficiency achieved with separate Ag-Fe₃O₄/graphene/H₂O₂ and Au-Fe₃O₄/graphene/H₂O₂ systems, indicating a substantial synergistic interaction between the two metallic nanoparticles and the Fe₃O₄/graphene/H₂O₂ systems. The presence of an organic acid accelerated degradation of the MB/H₂O₂ system, whereas almost all of the investigated anions inhibited the degradation of MB; their inhibition effects followed the order CO₃^2? > NO₃^? > Cl^? > F^? > H₂PO₄^? > SO₄^2? > I^?. Cations of Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, and Mg²⁺ also suppressed MB degradation, likely because of the influence of Cl^? coexisting in the solutions.     

2‐Chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoic acid as a coformer with pharmaceutical cocrystals and molecular salts

A series of five binary complexes, i.e. three cocrystals and two molecular salts, using 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoic acid as a coformer have been produced with five commonly available compounds, some of pharmaceutical relevance, namely, 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoic acid–isonicotinamide (1/1), C₇H₄ClNO₄·C₆H₆N₂O, 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoic acid–3,3‐diethylpyridine‐2,4(1H,3H)‐dione (2/1), 2C₇H₄ClNO₄·C₉H₁₃NO₂, 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoic acid–pyrrolidin‐2‐one (1/1), C₇H₄ClNO₄·C₄H₇NO, 2‐carboxypiperidinium 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoate, C₆H₁₂NO₂^?·C₇H₃ClNO₄^?, and (2‐hydroxyethyl)ammonium 2‐chloro‐4‐nitrobenzoate, C₂H₈NO⁺·C₇H₃ClNO₄^?. The coformer falls under the classification of a `generally regarded as safe' compound. All five complexes make use of a number of different heteromeric hydrogen‐bonded interactions. Intermolecular potentials were evaluated using the CSD‐Materials module.

Vibrational emission of NO2 from the reaction of NO with O3

Vibrational chemiluminescence in the Δν₁ = Δν₃ = ?1 band of NO₂ is observed both in the O + NO and O₃ + NO reactions and shown to be emitted by molecules with up to 11 000 cm^?1 of vibrational energy. Quenching rate constants of NO₂³ are estimated ranging from about 6 × 10^?14 for Ar to about 3 × 10^?12 cm³ s^?1 for NO₂. The ratio of vibrational to electronic emission is 0.06 ± 0.03 for O + NO and 5.3 ± 1.0 for O₃ + NO. It is suggested that vibrationally excited NO₂ is a major product of that channel of the O₃ + NO reaction which forms ground-state NO₂(²A₁) directly.
