Engineering Photocatalytic Porous Organic Materials for Directing Redox versus Energy Transfer Processes
SOLAR RRL(2024)
摘要
Two organic materials containing phenanthroline and triazine fragments, but connected in different ways, are presented. The imine-based material Phen-Tz-covalent organic framework (COF) preferentially shows photocatalytic activity through an energy transfer pathway as observed for olefin photoisomerization. However, an analogous covalent triazine framework (Phen-CTF) behaves as a powerful photoredox catalyst able to activate C-X (X=Br, Cl) bonds. The analysis of this phenomenon by means of theoretical calculations enables the rationalization of the different photocatalytic behavior observed. Phen-CTF behaves as a donor-acceptor material resulting in efficient charge separation upon excitation, while the imine groups present in Phen-Tz-COF hamper charge separation contributing to the rapid recombination between electrons and holes. This justifies a better activation via electron transfer in Phen-CTF and via energy transfer in Phen-Tz-COF. Two organic materials, Phen-Tz-covalent organic framework (Phen-Tz-COF) and Phen-covalent triazine framework (Phen-CTF), feature phenanthroline and triazine fragments with distinct connectivity. Phen-Tz-COF exhibits preferential photocatalytic activity via energy transfer, while Phen-CTF serves as a potent photoredox catalyst. Theoretical calculations rationalize these differences due to different electron-hole separation in the two materials.image (c) 2023 WILEY-VCH GmbH
