Abstract
Efficient utilization of photogenerated charge carriers to realize photocatalytic solar fuel production and oxidative chemical synthesis is a challenging task. Herein, a conventional amidation reaction route is adopted to successfully construct a novel composite photocatalyst composed of a Ni(II)-terpyridine complex with carboxyl groups grafted on CdS nanorods (labeled as CdS@Ni(terpyC)2). Experimental results have unequivocally revealed that the as-fabricated composite catalyst exhibited a remarkable enhancement in photocatalytic activity for the dehydrogenation of benzyl alcohol under visible light, demonstrating superior hydrogen evolution efficiency and benzaldehyde selectivity, surpassing both pristine CdS and the blend of CdS and Ni(terpyC)2. The carrier dynamics study demonstrated that the Ni(terpyC)2 on the surface of CdS could quickly extract the photogenerated electrons of CdS, which reduced the carrier recombination efficiency, further improving the photocatalytic activity of the catalyst. This work illustrates the effect of surface active site engineering on photocatalysis and is expected to shed substantial inspiration on future surface modulation and design of semiconductor photocatalysts.

Abstract
Hydrogenation is a pivotal process in organic synthesis and various catalytic strategies have been developed in achieving effective hydrogenation of diverse substrates. Despite the competence of these methods, the predominant reliance on molecular hydrogen (H2) gas under high temperature and elevated pressure presents operational challenges. Other alternative hydrogen sources such as inorganic hydrides and organic acids are often prohibitively expensive, limiting their practical utility on a large scale. In contrast, employing water as a hydrogen source for organic hydrogenation presents an attractive and sustainable alternative, promising to overcome the drawbacks associated with traditional hydrogen sources. Integrated with electricity as the sole driving force under ambient conditions, hydrogenation using water as the sole hydrogen source aligns well with the environmental sustainability goals but also offers a safer and potentially more cost-effective solution. This article starts with the discussion on the inherent advantages and limitations of conventional hydrogen sources compared to water in hydrogenation reactions, followed by the introduction of representative electrocatalytic systems that successfully utilize water as the hydrogen source in realizing a large number of organic hydrogenation transformations, with a focus on heterogeneous electrocatalysts. In summary, transitioning to water as a hydrogen source in organic hydrogenation represents a promising direction for sustainable chemistry. In particular, by exploring and optimizing electrocatalytic hydrogenation systems, the chemical industry can reduce its reliance on hazardous and expensive hydrogen sources, paving the way for safer, greener, and less energy-intensive hydrogenation processes.

Abstract
The rational design of S-scheme photocatalysts, achieved by serially integrating two different semiconductors, represents a promising strategy for efficient charge separation and amplified photocatalytic performance, yet it remains a challenge. Herein, ZnIn2S4 (ZIS) and oxygen-doped ZnIn2S4 (O-ZIS) nanosheets are chosen to construct a homojunction catalyst architecture. Theoretical simulations alongside comprehensive in situ and ex situ characterizations confirm that ZIS and O-ZIS with noncentrosymmetric layered structures can generate a polarization-induced bulk-internal electric field (IEF) within the crystal. A robust interface-IEF is also created by the strong interfacial interaction between O-ZIS and ZIS with different work functions. Owing to these features, the O-ZIS/ZIS homojunction adopts an S-scheme directional charge transfer route, wherein photoexcited electrons in ZIS and holes in O-ZIS concurrently migrate to their interface and subsequently recombine. This enables spatial charge separation and provides a high driving force for both reduction and oxidation reactions simultaneously. Consequently, such photocatalyst exhibits an H2 evolution rate up to 142.9 µmol h-1 without any cocatalysts, which is 4.6- and 3.4-fold higher than that of pristine ZIS and O-ZIS, respectively. Benzaldehyde is also produced as a value-added oxidation product with a rate of 146.9 µmol h-1. This work offers a new perspective on the design of S-scheme systems.

Abstract
Combining the hydrogen (H2) extraction process and organic oxidation synthesis in photooxidation-reduction reactions mediated by semiconductors is a desirable strategy because rich chemicals are evolved as byproducts along with hydrogen in trifling conditions upon irradiation, which is the only effort. The bifunctional photocatalytic strategy facilitates the feasible formation of a C═O/C─C bond from a large number of compounds containing a X-H (X = C, O) bond; therefore, the production of H2 can be easily realized without support from third agents like chemical substances, thus providing an eco-friendly and appealing organic synthesis strategy. Among the widely studied semiconductor nanomaterials, ZnxCd1-xS has been continuously studied and explored by researchers over the years, and it has attracted much consideration owing to its unique advantages such as adjustable band edge position, rich elemental composition, excellent photoelectric properties, and ability to respond to visible light. Therefore, nanostructures based on ZnxCd1-xS have been widely studied as a feasible way to efficiently prepare hydrogen energy and selectively oxidize it into high-value fine chemicals. In this Review, first, the crystal and energy band structures of ZnxCd1-xS, the model of twin nanocrystals, the photogenerated charge separation mechanism of the ZB-WZ-ZB homojunction with crisscross bands, and the Volmer-Weber growth mechanism of ZnxCd1-xS are described. Second, the morphology, structure, modification, synthesis, and vacancy engineering of ZnxCd1-xS are surveyed, summarized, and discussed. Then, the research progress in ZnxCd1-xS-based photocatalysis in photocatalytic hydrogen extraction (PHE) technology, the mechanism of PHE, organic substance (benzyl alcohol, methanol, etc.) dehydrogenation, the factors affecting the efficiency of photocatalytic discerning oxidation of organic derivatives, and selective C-H activation and C-C coupling for synergistic efficient dehydrogenation of photocatalysts are described. Conclusively, the challenges in the applicability of ZnxCd1-xS-based photocatalysts are addressed for further research development along this line.

Abstract
Janus heterostructures consisting of multiple jointed components with distinct properties have gained growing interest in the photoredox catalytic field. Herein, we have developed a facile low-temperature method to gain anisotropic one-dimensional Au-tipped CdS (Au-CdS) nanorods (NRs), followed by assembling Ru molecular co-catalyst (RuN5) onto the surface of the NRs. The CdS NRs decorated with plasmonic Au nanoparticles and RuN5 complex harness the virtues of metal-semiconductor and inorganic-organic interface, giving directional charge transfer channels, spatially separated reaction sites, and enhanced local electric field distribution. As a result, the Au-CdS-RuN5 can act as an efficient dual-function photocatalyst for simultaneous H2 evolution and valorization of biomass-derived alcohols. Benefiting from the interfacial charge decoupling and selective chemical bond activation, the optimal all-in-one Au-CdS-RuN5 heterostructure shows greatly enhanced photoactivity and selectivity as compared to bare CdS NRs, along with a remarkable apparent quantum yield of 40.2 % at 400 nm. The structural evolution and working mechanism of the heterostructures are systematically analyzed based on experimental and computational results.

Abstract
The coupled green energy and chemical production by photocatalysis represents a promising sustainable pathway, which poses great challenges for the multifunction integration of catalytic systems. Here we show a promising green photocatalyst design using Cu-ZnIn2S4 nanosheets and carbon dots as building units, which enables the integration of reaction, mass transfer, and separation functions in the nano-space, mimicking a nanoreactor. This function integration results in great activity promotion for benzyl alcohol oxidation coupled H2 production, with H2/benzaldehyde production rates of 45.95/46.47 mmol g-1 h-1, 36.87 and 36.73 times to pure ZnIn2S4, respectively, owning to the enhanced charge accumulation and mass transfer according to in-situ spectroscopies and computational simulations of the built-in electrical field. Near-unity selectivity of benzaldehyde is achieved via the effective separation enabled by the Cu(II)-mediated conformation flipping of the intermediates and subsequent π-π conjugation. This work demonstrates an inspiring proof-of-concept nanoreactor design of photocatalysts for coupled sustainable systems.

Abstract
Here, we report CdS quantum dot (QD) gels, a three-dimensional network of interconnected CdS QDs, as a new type of direct hydrogen atom transfer (d-HAT) photocatalyst for C-H activation. We discovered that the photoexcited CdS QD gel could generate various neutral radicals, including α-amido, heterocyclic, acyl, and benzylic radicals, from their corresponding stable molecular substrates, including amides, thio/ethers, aldehydes, and benzylic compounds. Its C-H activation ability imparts a broad substrate and reaction scope. The mechanistic study reveals that this reactivity is intrinsic to CdS materials, and the neutral radical generation did not proceed via the conventional sequential electron transfer and proton transfer pathway. Instead, the C-H bonds are activated by the photoexcited CdS QD gel via a d-HAT mechanism. This d-HAT mechanism is supported by the linear correlation between the logarithm of the C-H bond activation rate constant and the C-H bond dissociation energy (BDE) with a Brønsted slope α=0.5. Our findings expand the currently limited direct hydrogen atom transfer photocatalysis toolbox and provide new possibilities for photocatalytic C-H activation.

Abstract
The photocatalytic conversion of biomass and plastic waste provides opportunities for sustainable fuel and chemical production. Heterogeneous photocatalysts, typically composed of semiconductors with distinctive redox properties in their conduction band (CB) and valence band (VB), facilitate both the oxidative and reductive valorization of organic feedstocks. This article provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in the photorefinery of biomass and plastics from the perspective of the redox properties of photocatalysts. We explore the roles of the VB and CB in enhancing the value-added conversion of biomass and plastics via various pathways. Our aim is to bridge the gap between photocatalytic mechanisms and renewable carbon feedstock valorization, inspiring further development in photocatalytic refinery of biomass and plastics.

Abstract
Herein, we report the modulation of the band structures of halide perovskite Cs2CuBr4 by tuning the synthesis methods. The photocatalyst PC-1, synthesized by the hot injection method, has a more negative conduction band minima (CBM) than the photocatalyst PC-2, synthesized at room temperature. As a result, PC-1 can activate molecular O2 more efficiently to initiate the radical-mediated dehydrogenation of alcohols. The more positive valence band maxima (VBM) of PC-1 also facilitates amine oxidation to the corresponding radical. Further, improved charge separation and transport and a decrement in the photogenerated charge carrier recombination have been detected for PC-1 to enhance photocatalytic activity. PC-1 showed improved yields for a series of structurally diverse amides (highest yield = 98%) by oxidative amidation of alcohols under visible light irradiation.

Abstract
The oxidation of benzylic alcohols is an important transformation in modern organic synthesis. A plethora of photoredox protocols have been developed to achieve the aerobic oxidation of alcohols into carbonyls. Recently, several groups described that ultraviolet (UV) or purple light can initiate the aerobic oxidation of benzylic alcohols in the absence of an external catalyst, and depicted different mechanisms involving the photoinduction of •O2- as a critical reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, based on comprehensive mechanistic investigations, including control experiments, radical quenching experiments, EPR studies, UV-vis spectroscopy, kinetics studies, and density functional theory calculations (DFT), we elucidate here that HOO•, which is released via the H2O2 elimination of α-hydroxyl peroxyl radicals [ArCR(OH)OO•], serves as the real chain carrier for the autocatalytic photooxidation of benzylic alcohols. The mechanistic ambiguities depicted in the precedent literature are clarified, in terms of the crucial ROS and its evolution, the rate-limiting step, and the primary radical cascade. This work highlights the necessity of stricter mechanistic analyses on UV-driven oxidative reactions that involve aldehydes' (or ketones) generation.

Sci Bull (Beijing) 2024; 69:901-912. [PMID: 38302334 DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2024.01.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2023] [Revised: 12/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024]
Abstract
Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) hold immense potential as photocatalysts for CO2 reduction due to their remarkable quantum properties, which facilitates the generation of multiple excitons, providing the necessary high-energy electrons for CO2 photoreduction. However, harnessing multi-excitons in PQDs for superior photocatalysis remains challenging, as achieving the concurrent dissociation of excitons and interparticle energy transfer proves elusive. This study introduces a ligand density-controlled strategy to enhance both exciton dissociation and interparticle energy transfer in CsPbBr3 PQDs. Optimized CsPbBr3 PQDs with the regulated ligand density exhibit efficient photocatalytic conversion of CO2 to CO, achieving a 2.26-fold improvement over unoptimized counterparts while maintaining chemical integrity. Multiple analytical techniques, including Kelvin probe force microscopy, temperature-dependent photoluminescence, femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations, collectively affirm that the proper ligand termination promotes the charge separation and the interparticle transfer through ligand-mediated interfacial electron coupling and electronic interactions. This work reveals ligand density-dependent variations in the gas-solid photocatalytic CO2 reduction performance of CsPbBr3 PQDs, underscoring the importance of ligand engineering for enhancing quantum dot photocatalysis.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202318850. [PMID: 38169147 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202318850] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2023] [Revised: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
Due to the demanding depolymerization conditions and limited catalytic efficiency, enhancing lignin valorization remains challenging. Therefore, lowering the bond dissociation energy (BDE) has emerged as a viable strategy for achieving mild yet highly effective cleavage of bonds. In this study, a photocatalytic semi-hydrogenation/reduction strategy utilizing CsPbBr3 quantum dots (CPB-QDs) and Hantzsch ester (HEH2 ) as a synergistic catalytic system was introduced to reduce the BDE of Cβ -O-Ar, achieving effective cleavage of the Cβ -O-Ar bond. This strategy offers a wide substrate scope encompassing various β-O-4 model lignin dimers, preoxidized β-O-4 polymers, and native oxidized lignin, resulting in the production of corresponding ketones and phenols. Notably, this approach attained a turnover frequency (TOF) that is 17 times higher than that of the reported Ir-catalytic system in the photocatalytic depolymerization of the lignin model dimers. It has been observed via meticulous experimentation that HEH2 can be activated by CPB-QDs via single electron transfer (SET), generating HEH2 ⋅+ as a hydrogen donor while also serving as a hole quencher. Moreover, HEH2 ⋅+ readily forms an active transition state with the substrates via hydrogen bonding. Subsequently, the proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) from HEH2 ⋅+ to the carbonyl group of the substrate generates a Cα ⋅ intermediate.

Abstract
Biomass with abundant reproducible carbon resource holds great promise as an intriguing substitute for fossil fuels in the manufacture of high-value-added chemicals and fuels. Photocatalytic biomass valorization using inexhaustible solar energy enables to accurately break desired chemical bonds or selectively functionalize particular groups, thus emerging as an extremely creative and low carbon cost strategy for relieving the dilemma of the global energy. Quantum dots (QDs) are an outstandingly dynamic class of semiconductor photocatalysts because of their unique properties, which have achieved significant successes in various photocatalytic applications including biomass valorization. In this review, the current development rational design for QDs photocatalytic biomass valorization effectively is highlighted, focusing on the principles of tuning their particle size, structure, and surface properties, with special emphasis on the effect of the ligands for selectively broken chemical bonds (C─O, C─C) of biomass. Finally, the present issues and possibilities within that exciting field are described.

Abstract
Solar-driven CO2 reduction integrated with C-C/C-X bond-forming organic synthesis represents a substantially untapped opportunity to simultaneously tackle carbon neutrality and create an atom-/redox-economical chemical synthesis. Herein, we demonstrate the first cooperative photoredox catalysis of efficient and tunable CO2 reduction to syngas, paired with direct alkylation/arylation of unactivated allylic sp3 C-H bonds for accessing allylic C-C products, over SiO2 -supported single Ni atoms-decorated CdS quantum dots (QDs). Our protocol not only bypasses additional oxidant/reductant and pre-functionalization of organic substrates, affording a broad of allylic C-C products with moderate to excellent yields, but also produces syngas with tunable CO/H2 ratios (1 : 2-5 : 1). Such win-win coupling catalysis highlights the high atom-, step- and redox-economy, and good durability, illuminating the tantalizing possibility of a renewable sunlight-driven chemical feedstocks manufacturing industry.

Abstract
Integrating photocatalytic CO2 reduction with selective benzyl alcohol (BA) oxidation in one photoredox reaction system is a promising way for the simultaneous utilization of photogenerated electrons and holes. Herein, ZnmIn2S3+m (m = 1-5) semiconductors (ZnIn2S4, Zn2In2S5, Zn3In2S6, Zn4In2S7, and Zn5In2S8) with various composition faults were synthesized via a simple hydrothermal method and used for effective selective dehydrocoupling of benzyl alcohol into high-value C-C coupling products and reduction of CO2 into syngas under visible light. The absorption edge of ZnmIn2S3+m samples shifted to shorter wavelengths as the atomic ratio of Zn/In was increased. The conduction band and valence band position can be adjusted by changing the Zn/In ratio, resulting in controllable photoredox ability for selective BA oxidation and CO2 reduction. For example, the selectivity of benzaldehyde (BAD) product was reduced from 76% (ZnIn2S4, ZIS1) to 27% (Zn4In2S7, ZIS4), while the selectivity of hydrobenzoin (HB) was increased from 22% to 56%. Additionally, the H2 formation rate on ZIS1 (1.6 mmol/g/h) was 1.6 times higher than that of ZIS4 (1.0 mmol/g/h), and the CO formation rate on ZIS4 (0.32 mmol/g/h) was three times higher than that of ZIS1 (0.13 mmol/g/h), demonstrating that syngas with different H2/CO ratios can be obtained by controlling the Zn/In ratio in ZnmIn2S3+m. This study provides new insights into unveiling the relationship of structure-property of ZnmIn2S3+m layered crystals, which are valuable for implementation in a wide range of environment and energy applications.

Abstract
Surface plasmon resonance-induced charge separation plays key roles in plasmon-related applications, especially in photocatalysis and photovoltaics. Plasmon coupling nanostructures exhibit extraordinary behaviors in hybrid states, phonon scattering, and ultrafast plasmon dephasing, but plasmon-induced charge separation in these materials remains unknown. Here, we design Schottky-free Au nanoparticle (NP)/NiO/Au nanoparticles-on-a-mirror plasmonic photocatalysts to support plasmon-induced interfacial hole transfer, evidenced by surface photovoltage microscopy at the single-particle level. In particular, we observe a nonlinear increase in charge density and photocatalytic performance with an increase in excitation intensity in plasmonic photocatalysts containing hot spots as a result of varying the geometry. Such charge separation increased the internal quantum efficiency by 14 times at 600 nm in catalytic reactions as compared to that of the Au NP/NiO without a coupling effect. These observations provide an improved understanding of charge transfer management and utilization by geometric engineering and interface electronic structure for plasmonic photocatalysis.

Abstract
Semiconductor quantum dots have been emerging as one of the most ideal materials for artificial photosynthesis. Here, we report the assembled ZnS-CdS hybrid heterostructure for efficient coupling cooperative redox catalysis toward the oxidation of 1-phenylethanol to acetophenone/2,3-diphenyl-2,3-butanediol (pinacol) integrated with the reduction of protons to H2. The strong interaction and typical type-I band-position alignment between CdS quantum dots and ZnS quantum dots result in efficient separation and transfer of electron-hole pairs, thus distinctly enhancing the coupled photocatalyzed-redox activity and stability. The optimal ZnS-CdS hybrid also delivers a superior performance for various aromatic alcohol coupling photoredox reaction, and the ratio of electrons and holes consumed in such redox reaction is close to 1.0, indicating a high atom economy of cooperative coupling catalysis. In addition, by recycling the scattered light in the near field of a SiO2 sphere, the SiO2-supported ZnS-CdS (denoted as ZnS-CdS/SiO2) catalyst can further achieve a 3.5-fold higher yield than ZnS-CdS hybrid. Mechanistic research clarifies that the oxidation of 1-phenylethanol proceeds through the pivotal radical intermediates of •C(CH3)(OH)Ph. This work is expected to promote the rational design of semiconductor quantum dots-based heterostructured catalysts for coupling photoredox catalysis in organic synthesis and clean fuels production.

Nat Commun 2022; 13:7909. [PMID: 36564379 PMCID: PMC9789095 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-022-35463-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Electroreductive coupling of biomass-derived benzaldehyde offers a sustainable approach to producing value-added hydrobenzoin. The low efficiency of the reaction mainly ascribes to the mismatch of initial formation and subsequent dimerization of ketyl intermediates (Ph-CH = O → Ph-C·-OH → Ph-C(OH)-C(OH)-Ph). This paper describes a strategy to balance the active sites for the generation and dimerization of ketyl intermediates by constructing bimetallic Pd/Cu electrocatalysts with tunable surface coverage of Pd. A Faradaic efficiency of 63.2% and a hydrobenzoin production rate of up to 1.27 mmol mg-1 h-1 (0.43 mmol cm-2 h-1) are achieved at -0.40 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode. Experimental results and theoretical calculations reveal that Pd promotes the generation of the ketyl intermediate, and Cu enhances their dimerization. Moreover, the balance between these two sites facilitates the coupling of benzaldehyde towards hydrobenzoin. This work offers a rational strategy to design efficient electrocatalysts for complex reactions through the optimization of specified active sites for different reaction steps.

Abstract
Semiconductor-based photoredox catalysis brings an innovative strategy for sustainable organic transformation (e.g., C-C/C-X bond formation), via radical coupling under mild conditions. However, since semiconductors interact with photogenerated radicals unselectively, the precise control of selectivity for such organic synthesis by steering radical conversion is extremely challenging. Here, by the judicious design of a structurally well-defined and atomically dispersed cocatalyst over semiconductor quantum dots, we demonstrate the precise selectivity switch on high-performance selective heterogeneous coupling photosynthesis of a C-C bond or a C-N bond along with hydrogen production over the Ni-oxo cluster and single Pd atom-decorated CdS quantum dots crafted onto the SiO2 support. Mechanistic studies unveil that the Ph(•CH)NH2 and PhCH2NH2•+ act as dominant radical intermediates for such divergent organic synthesis of C-C coupled vicinal diamines and C-N coupled imines, as respectively enabled by Ni-oxo clusters assisted radical-radical coupling and single Pd atom-assisted radical addition-elimination. This work overcomes the pervasive difficulties of selectivity regulation in semiconductor-based photochemical synthesis, highlighting a vista of utilizing atomically dispersed cocatalysts as active sites to maneuver unselective radical conversion by engineering quantum dots toward selective heterogeneous photosynthesis.

Abstract
Metal sulfides are a type of reduction semiconductor photocatalysts with narrow bandgap and negative conduction band potential, which make them have unique photocatalytic performance in solar-to-fuel conversion and environmental purification. However, metal sulfides also suffer from low quantum efficiency and photocorrosion. In this review, the strategies to improve the photocatalytic activity of metal sulfide photocatalysts by stimulating the charge separation and improving light-harvesting ability are introduced, including morphology control, semiconductor coupling and surface modification. In addition, the recent research progress aiming at improving their photostability is also illustrated, such as, construction of hole transfer heterojunctions and deposition of hole transfer cocatalysts. Based on the electronic band structures, the applications of metal sulfides in photocatalysis, namely, hydrogen production, degradation of organic pollutants and reduction of CO2, are summarized. Finally, the perspectives of the promising future of metal-sulfide based photocatalysts and the challenges remaining to overcome are also presented.

Abstract
Surface-plasmon-mediated phenylacetylide intermediate transfer from the Cu to the Pd surface affords a novel mechanism for transmetalation, enabling wavelength-tunable cross-coupling and homo-coupling reaction pathway control. C-C bond forming Sonogashira coupling and Glaser coupling reactions in O2 atmosphere are efficiently driven by visible light over heterogeneous Cu and Pd nanoparticles as a mixed catalyst without base or other additives. The reaction pathway can be controlled by switching the excitation wavelength. Shorter wavelengths (400-500 nm) give the Glaser homo-coupling diyne, whereas longer wavelength irradiation (500-940 nm) significantly increases the degree of cross-coupling Sonogashira coupling products. The ratio of the activated intermediates of alkyne to the iodobenzene is wavelength dependent and this regulates transmetalation. This wavelength-tunable reaction pathway is a novel way to optimize the product selectivity in important organic syntheses.

Abstract
Photocatalytic H2 evolution coupled with organic transformation provides a new avenue to cooperatively produce clean fuels and fine chemicals, enabling a more efficient conversion of solar energy. Here, a novel two-dimensional (2D) heterostructure of ultrathin ZnIn2S4 nanosheets decorated with amorphous nickel boride (Nix-B) is prepared for simultaneous photocatalytic anaerobic H2 generation and aromatic aldehydes production. This ZnIn2S4/Nix-B catalyst elaborately combines the ultrathin structure advantage of the ZnIn2S4 semiconductor and the cocatalytic function of Nix-B. A high H2 production rate of 8.9 mmol h-1 g-1 is delivered over the optimal ZnIn2S4/Nix-B with a stoichiometric production of benzaldehyde, which is about 22 times higher than ZnIn2S4. Especially, the H2 evolution rate is much higher than the value (2.8 mmol h-1 g-1) of the traditional photocatalytic half reaction of H2 production with triethanolamine as a sacrificial agent. The apparent quantum yield reaches 24% at 420 nm, representing an advanced photocatalyst system. Moreover, compared with traditional sulfide, hydroxide, and even noble metal modified ZnIn2S4/M counterparts (M = NiS, Ni(OH)2, Pt), the ZnIn2S4/Nix-B also maintains markedly higher photocatalytic activity, showing a highly efficient and economical advantage of the Nix-B cocatalyst. This work sheds light on the exploration of 2D ultrathin semiconductors decorated with novel transition metal boride cocatalyst for efficient photocatalytic organic transformation integrated with solar fuel production.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have been widely investigated for various photocatalytic applications. However, the dual-functional reaction system integrated selective organic oxidation with H2 production over MHPs is rarely reported. Here, we demonstrate for the first time the selective oxidation of aromatic alcohols to aldehydes integrated with hydrogen (H2) evolution over Pt-decorated CsPbBr3. Especially, the functionalization of CsPbBr3 with graphene oxide (GO) further improves the photoactivity of the perovskite catalyst. The optimal amount of CsPbBr3/GO-Pt exhibits an H2 evolution rate of 1,060 μmol g−1 h−1 along with high selectivity (>99%) for benzyl aldehyde generation (1,050 μmol g−1 h−1) under visible light (λ > 400 nm), which is about five times higher than the CsPbBr3-Pt sample. The enhanced activity has been ascribed to two effects induced by the introduction of GO: 1) GO displays a structure-directing role, decreasing the particle size of CsPbBr3 and 2) GO and Pt act as electron reservoirs, extracting the photogenerated electrons and prohibiting the recombination of the electron–hole pairs. This study opens new avenues to utilize metal halide perovskites as dual-functional photocatalysts to perform selective organic transformations and solar fuel production.

Abstract
Developing cocatalyst-free photocatalysts is highly desired because it could avoid the very slow interfacial electron transfer that makes photocatalytic photon utilization a dilemma. However, even in the optimal case, photocatalysts without the use of cocatalysts deliver comparable performance only for conventional construction. We demonstrate here that electronic doping not only provides catalytically active sites in cocatalyst-free photocatalysts but also plays certain additional roles. These electronic states can efficiently channel the trapped electrons to the semiconductor surface without suffering from time-consuming detrapping and can facilitate the extraction of photogenerated holes. These features endow our demonstrated tungsten-doped CdS with evident superiority in photocatalytic performance over conventional counterparts loaded with platinum cocatalysts.

Abstract
Simultaneously utilizing photogenerated electrons and holes in one photocatalytic system to synthesize value-added chemicals and clean hydrogen (H2) energy meets the development requirements of green chemistry. Herein, we report a binary material of CdS/BiVO4 combining one-dimensional (1D) CdS nanorods (NRs) with two-dimensional (2D) BiVO4 nanosheets (NSs) constructed through a facile electrostatic self-assembly procedure for the selectively photocatalytic oxidation of aromatic alcohols integrated with H2 production, which exhibits significantly enhanced photocatalytic performance. Within 2 h, the conversion of aromatic alcohols over CdS/BiVO4-25 was approximately 9-fold and 40-fold higher than that over pure CdS and BiVO4, respectively. The remarkably improved photoactivity of CdS/BiVO4 hybrids is mainly ascribed to the Z-scheme charge separation mechanism in the 1D/2D heterostructure derived from the interface contact between CdS and BiVO4, which not only facilitates the separation and transfer of charge carriers, but also maintains the strong reducibility of photogenerated electrons and strong oxidizability of photogenerated holes. It is anticipated that this work will further stimulate interest in the rational design of 1D/2D Z-scheme heterostructure photocatalysts for the selective fine chemical synthesis integrated with H2 evolution.
