Abstract
Due to the expansive use of tetracycline antibiotics (TCs) to treat various infectious diseases in humans and animals, their presence in the environment has created many challenges for human societies. Therefore, providing green and cost-effective solutions for their effective removal has become an urgent need. Here, we will introduce 2D/2D p-n heterostructures that exhibit excellent sonophotocatalytic/photocatalytic properties for water-soluble pollutant removal. In this contribution, for the first time, β- Ni(OH)2 nanosheets were synthesized through visible-light-induced photodeposition of different amounts of nickel on ZnO nanosheets (β-Ni(x)/ZNs) to fabricate 2D/2D p-n heterostructures. The PXRD patterns confirmed the formation of wurtzite phase for ZNs and the hexagonal crystal structure of β-Ni(OH)2. The FESEM and TEM micrographs showed that the β-Ni(OH)2 sheets were dispersed on the surface of ZNs and formed 2D/2D p-n heterojunction in β-Ni(x)/ZNs samples. With the photodeposition of β-Ni(OH)2 nanosheets on ZNs, the surface area, pore volume, and pore diameter of β-Ni(x)/ZNs heterostructures have increased compared to ZNs, which can have a positive effect on the sonophotocatalytic/photocatalytic performance of ZNs. The degradation experiments showed that β-Ni(0.1)/ZNs and β-Ni(0.4)/ZNs have the highest degradation percentage in photocatalytic (51 %) and sonophotocatalytic (71 %) degradation of TC, respectively. Finally, the sonophotocatalytic/photocatalytic degradation process of TC was systematically validated through modeling with three powerful and supervised machine learning algorithms, including Support Vector Regression (SVR), Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), and Stochastic Gradient Boosting (SGB). Five statistical criteria including R2, SAE, MSE, SSE, and RMSE were calculated for model validation. It was observed that the developed SGB algorithm was the most reliable model for predicting the degradation percent of TC. The results revealed that using fabricated 2D/2D p-n heterojunctions (β-Ni(x)/ZNs) is more sustainable than the conventional ZnO photocatalytic systems in practical applications.

Transition metals-doped g-C 3N 4 nanostructures as advanced photocatalysts for energy and environmental applications. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 352:141354.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4)-based heterostructured photocatalysts have received significant attention for its potential applications in the treatment of wastewater and hydrogen evolution. The utilization of semiconductor materials in heterogeneous photocatalysis has recently received great attention due to their potential and eco-friendly properties. Doping with metal ions plays a crucial role in altering the photochemical characteristics of g-C3N4, effectively enhancing photoabsorption into the visible range and thus improving the photocatalytic performance of doped photocatalysts. As an emerging nanomaterial, nanostructured g-C3N4 represents a visible light-active semiconducting photocatalyst that has attracted significant interest in the photocatalysis field, particularly for its practical water treatment applications. To the best of our knowledge, investigations of functionalized photocatalytic (PC) materials on 3d transition metal-doped g-C3N4 remain unexplored in the existing literature. g-C3N4 based heterohybrid photocatalysts have demonstrated excellent reusability, making them highly promising for wastewater treatment applications. This paper describes the overview of numerous studies conducted on the heterostructured g-C3N4 photocatalysts with various 3d metals. Research studies have revealed that the introduction of element doping with various 3d transition metals (e.g., Ti, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, etc.) into g-C3N4 is an efficient approach to enhance degradation efficacy and boost photocatalytic activity (PCA) of doped g-C3N4 catalysts. Moreover, the significance of g-C3N4 heterostructured nanohybrids is highlighted, particularly in the context of wastewater treatment applications. The study concludes by providing insights into future perspectives in this developing area of research, with a specific focus on the degradation of various organic contaminants.

Abstract
A novel, efficient, and mild protocol for rearrangement of oximes to amides or hydrolyzing to ketone/aldehyde using a simple BODIPY dye as a photocatalyst and air as an oxidant via propagation reaction under visible-light irradiation is reported. The triplet excited state of BODIPY played a significant role in the catalytic process. It was found that the various substituted ketoximes, both with electron-withdrawing and electron-donating substituents, afforded the corresponding products with moderate to excellent yields, and the catalytic efficiency was up to 0.01 mol %.

Abstract
Visible-light-induced C-H aerobic oxidation is an important chemical transformation that can be applied for the synthesis of aromatic ketones. High-cost catalysts and toxic solvents were generally needed in the present methodologies. Here, an efficient aqueous C-H aerobic oxidation protocol was reported. Through CeCl3 -mediated photocatalysis, a series of aromatic ketones were produced in moderate to excellent yields. With air as the oxidant, this reaction could be performed under mild conditions in water and demonstrated high activity and functional group tolerance. This method is economical, highly efficient, and environmentally friendly, and it will provide inspiration for the development of aqueous photochemical synthesis reactions.
