Abstract
En 中文
Here, we report the bismuth-based metal-organic framework (MOF), UU-206, constructed from Bi(NO3)3 & centerdot;5H2O and an extended tetraphenylenethylene-cored octacarboxylate linker (H8ettb). UU-206 crystallizes as a three-dimensional framework that can be described by the rare msg/wxs nets and features four one-dimensional channels with pore diameters of approximately 6-11 & Aring;. Nitrogen sorption isotherms at -196 degrees C reveal a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area of 1119 m2 g-1 and a total pore volume of 0.55 cm3 g-1, placing UU-206 among the most porous Bi-MOFs reported to-date. Optical and electrochemical measurements show that the material is a visible light responsive semiconductor (Eg approximate to 2.68 eV) with efficient photoinduced charge separation. Consequently, UU-206 functions as an efficient heterogeneous photocatalyst for the aerobic oxidative condensation of amines to imines, delivering up to 86% yield under visible light irradiation and outperforming related Bi-based materials. Notably, the reaction can also be driven by low-intensity natural sunlight at high latitudes, underscoring the potential of UU-206 as a platform for solar-driven organic transformations. Furthermore, this work demonstrates how integrating polytopic chromophore linkers with Bi-cluster nodes provides a powerful design strategy for developing multifunctional MOFs with high porosity, rare topology, and efficient visible light photocatalysis.
