Abstract

Abstract: A new compound based on immobilizing of Pd₆(RuL₃)₈(BF₄)₂₈ (L=2-(pyridin-3-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f] [1,10]-phenanthroline) cage (MOC-16) on g-C₃N₄ was synthesized. Infrared spectrum and powder X-ray diffraction were used to characterize structure of hybrid MOC-16/g-C₃N₄, as well as UV-vis absorption spectrum and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were carried out to unveil photocatalytic mechanism. With the introduction of MOC-16, the absorption edge of MOC-16/g-C₃N₄ in UV-vis spectrum extended apparently to long-wavelength region compared with pristine g-C₃N₄. H₂ evolution yielded with MOC-16/g-C₃N₄ in aqueous solution containing TEOA was much higher than that with RuL₃/g-C₃N₄, Pd/RuL₃/g-C₃N₄ and mixture of MOC-16 and g-C₃N₄, showing that the octahedral cage structure with high-efficient electron transfer and the interface interaction between MOC-16 and g-C₃N₄ were significant for improvement of H₂ evolution.

Key words: g-C₃N₄, Metal-organic cage, Photocatalytic H₂ evolution, Visible light, Stability
