Pathway of Oxygen Incorporation from O2 in TiO2 Photocatalytic Hydroxylation of Aromatics: Oxygen Isotope Labeling Studies

Abstract: The hydroxylation process is the primary, and even the rate-determining step of the photocatalytic degradation of aromatic compounds. To make clear the hydroxylation pathway of aromatics, the TiO(2) photocatalytic hydroxylation of several model substrates, such as benzoic acid, benzene, nitrobenzene, and benzonitrile, has been studied by an oxygen-isotope-labeling method, which can definitively assign the origin of the O atoms (from oxidant O(2) or solvent H(2)O) in the hydroxyl groups of the hydroxylated prod… Show more

“…The latter route was easier to occur than the former in the presence of O 2 , and the degradation products were HOO • and MPB-OH, in line with the experimental results [17,19]. This theoretical finding can further explain the experimental results as to why the O atom of O 2 cannot be incorporated into the degradation product through direct coupling between molecular O 2 and substrate-based radicals during AOPs [42]. As for H-abstraction intermediate ( • MPB(-H)␣) (Fig.…”

“…Indeed, when nitrobenzene ( E 0 =2.9 V vs. NHE) was used as the substrate (Table 2, entries 7 and 8), neither visible nor UV irradiation induced the oxidation of the substrate. In contrast, even though direct oxidation of nitrobenzene by the h vb + of TiO 2 is also not viable ( E vb =2.7 V),6b nitrobenzene can be oxidized in the TiO 2 /UV system, forming hydroxylated products with approximately 50 % 18 O. This can be attributed to the oxidation of H 2 O by h O 2p + (cannot relax as in the case of BiOBr) to produce .…”
