Abstract

Photocatalytic reactions occurring at semiconductor particles/solution interfaces can be applied to organic syntheses.In

Influence of coinage and platinum group metal co-catalysis for the photocatalytic reduction of m-dinitrobenzene by P25 and rutile TiO2

“…were studied for selective conversions [31] of lysine to pipecolinic acid formation, however, the effect of the different nature of metal loading on TiO 2 for selective reduction of nitroaromatics is not reported so far.…”

Preparation and Reaction of Titania Particles Encapsulated in Hollow Silica Shells as an Efficient Photocatalyst for Stereoselective Synthesis of Pipecolinic Acid

“…One of the most useful approaches for selective photocatalytic reaction is operation of a photocatalytic reaction under deaerated conditions where undesirable excessive oxidation through the radical chain reaction with oxygen (O 2 ) is prohibited and thereby an alternative electron acceptor should be used. 3,4 Another approach for the selective organic synthesis is utilization of photocatalysts of or in defined microstructures; TiO 2 particles or isolated titanium oxide species are distributed onto or into inorganic supports. 5,6 According to previous works, 7,8 one of the most widely used methods to provide the selectivity is encapsulation of TiO 2 particles into porous substances.…”

Factors affecting the selectivity of the photocatalytic conversion of nitroaromatic compounds over TiO2 to valuable nitrogen-containing organic compounds

“…[1][2][3] The photoinduced charge separation occurring on the TiO 2 surface creates both a reduction center and an oxidation center at the same time. This unique feature allows several transformations to be performed in one sequence without the necessity of the isolation of the intermediates.…”
