ABSTRACT
Sulfide-sulfoxide aerobic photo-oxidation is of great interest in organic and medicinal chemistry; however, developing efficient and facile heterogeneous photocatalytic systems without additional additives remains challenging. Herein, we intentionally designed and synthesized two polyoxometalate (POM)-based metalloviologen frameworks, formulated as [MII(4-PBPY)2(H2O)][MII(H2O)4][CoIII2MoVI10H4O38]·nH2O (M = Cu, n = 10 for 1; M = Co, n = 11 for 2), prepared by the mild one-step synthesis strategy and characterized in detail. X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis shows that they present a two-dimensional layered structure formed by two parallel metalloviologen layers pillared by dimeric Evans-Showell-type POMs. The connection of POM to the metalloviologen framework enables easier flow of electrons to the POM port, which can theoretically further induce O2 to generate reactive oxygen species (O2â¢-) to oxidize substrates to form target products. As expected, both 1 and 2 exhibit outstanding photocatalytic activity in the oxidation of sulfides. Within 6 h, methyl phenyl sulfide can be quantitatively converted into methyl phenyl sulfoxide. The in-depth mechanism reveals that there is also a synergistic energy-transfer pathway in the catalytic system in addition to the electron-transfer pathway. In addition, the corresponding catalytic activity and structure can be well maintained after at least 10 cycle experiments.
