Abstract
Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is a promising approach for producing clean energy and has the potential to play an important role in the transition toward a more sustainable and environmentally friendly energy system. Optimizing the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process and increasing visible-light utilization play a central role in photocatalysis. Herein, we built a novel Eosin Y-based metal-organic framework (Zn-EYTP) by synergizing a cobalt(II) complex for boosting the H2 evolution efficiency through photoinduced intermolecular electron transfer. Under optimized conditions, the maximum H2 evolution efficiency for Zn-EYTP was determined to be a turnover number (TON) value of 11,100 under green LED irradiation. And the synthesized Zn-EYTP photocatalysts could be easily recycled to restore the initial photocatalytic activity even after 3 cycles. Detailed studies reveal that the significantly enhanced HER activity in Zn-EYTP could be ascribed to the effective separation of photogenerated charges and the synergistic intermolecular interaction between Zn-EYTP and [Co(bpy)3]Cl2. The present work enables a deeper understanding of the importance of the PET process for enhanced HER photocatalytic activities, which will provide a viable strategy for the development of highly efficient photocatalysts.

Promoted Photocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution by Tuning the Electronic State of Copper Sites in Metal-Organic Supramolecular Assemblies. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202312306. [PMID: 37755067 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202312306] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Revised: 09/21/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023]
Abstract
The electronic state in terms of charge and spin of metal sites is fundamental to govern the catalytic activity of a photocatalyst. Herein, we show that modulation of the electronic states of Cu sites, without changing the coordination environments, of two metal-organic supramolecular assemblies based on π⋅⋅⋅π stacking can significantly improve photocatalytic activity. The use of these heterogeneous photocatalysts, without using noble metal cocatalysts, resulted in an increase of the hydrogen production rate from 522 to 3620 μmol h-1 g-1 . A systematical analysis revealed that the charge density and spin density of the metal centers are efficiently modulated via the modulation of the coordination fields around active copper (II) centers by the variation of the non-coordination groups of terminal ligands, leading to the significant enhancement of photocatalytic activity. This work provides an insight into the electronic state of active metal centers for designing high-performance photocatalysts.

Abstract
The increasing energy demands in society and industrial sectors have inspired the search for alternative energy sources that are renewable and sustainable, also driving the development of clean energy storage and delivery systems. Various solid-state materials (e.g., oxides, sulphides, polymer and conductive nanomaterials, activated carbon and their composites) have been developed for energy production (water splitting-H2 production), gaseous fuel (H2 and CH4) storage and electrochemical energy storage (batteries and supercapacitors) applications. Nevertheless, the low surface area, pore volume and conductivity, and poor physical and chemical stability of the reported materials have resulted in higher requirements and challenges in the development of energy production and energy storage technologies. Thus, to overcome these issues, the development of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has attracted significant attention. MOFs are a class of porous materials with extremely high porosity and surface area, structural diversity, multifunctionality, and chemical and structural stability, and thus they can be used in a wide range of applications. In the present review, we precisely discuss the interesting properties of MOFs and the various methodologies for their synthesis, and also the future dependence on the valorization of solid waste for the recovery of metals and organic ligands for the synthesis of new classes of MOFs. Subsequently, the utilization of these interesting characteristics for energy production (water splitting), storage of gaseous fuels (H2 and CH4), and electrochemical storage (batteries and supercapacitors) applications are described. However, although MOFs are efficient materials with versatile uses, they still have many challenges, limiting their practical applications. Therefore, finally, we highlight the challenges associated with MOFs and show the way forward in overcoming them for the development of these highly porous materials with large-scale practical utility.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are one type of porous organic materials linked by covalent bonds. COFs materials exhibit many outstanding characteristics such as high porosity, high chemical and thermal stability, large specific surface area, efficient electron transfer efficiency, and the ability for predesigned structures. These exceptional advantages enable COFs materials to exhibit remarkable performance in photocatalysis. Additionally, the activity of COFs materials as photocatalysts can be significantly upgraded by ion doping and the formation of heterojunctions. This paper summarizes the latest research progress on COF-based materials applied in photocatalytic systems. Initially, typical structures and preparation methods of COFs are analyzed and compared. Moreover, the essential principles of photocatalytic reactions over COFs-based materials and the latest research developments in photocatalytic hydrogen production, CO2 reduction, pollutants elimination, organic transformation, and overall water splitting are indicated. At last, the outlook and challenges of COF-based materials in photocatalysis are discussed. This review is intended to permit instructive guidance for the efficient use of photocatalysis based on COFs in the future.

A tube-like Pd@coordination polymer with enhanced solar light harvesting for boosting photocatalytic H 2 production in a wide pH range and seawater. NANOSCALE ADVANCES 2023; 5:3527-3535.

Abstract
Coordination polymers (CPs) have emerged as promising candidates for photocatalytic H2 production owing to their structural tailorability and functional diversity. However, the development of CPs with high energy transfer efficiency for highly efficient photocatalytic H2 production in a wide pH range still faces many challenges. Here we constructed a novel tube-like Pd(ii) coordination polymer with well-distributed Pd nanoparticles (denoted as Pd/Pd(ii)CPs) based on the coordination assembly of rhodamine 6G and Pd(ii) ions and further photo-reduction under visible light irradiation. Both the Br- ion and double solvent play a key role in forming the hollow superstructures. The resulting tube-like Pd/Pd(ii)CPs exhibit high stability in aqueous solution with the pH range from 3 to 14 due to the high Gibbs free energies of protonation and deprotonation, which provides the feasibility of photocatalytic hydrogen generation in a wide pH range. Electromagnetic field calculations showed that the tube-like Pd/Pd(ii)CPs have a good confinement effect on light. Therefore, the H2 evolution rate could reach 112.3 mmol h-1 g-1 at pH 13 under visible light irradiation, which is far superior to those of reported coordination polymer-based photocatalysts. Moreover, such Pd/Pd(ii)CPs could also reach a H2 production rate of 37.8 mmol h-1 g-1 in seawater under visible light with low optical density (40 mW cm-2) close to morning or cloudy sunlight. The above unique characteristics make the Pd/Pd(ii)CPs possess great potential for practical applications.

Abstract
Nature's blueprint provides the fundamental principles for expanding the use of abundant metals in catalysis; however, mimicking both the structure and function of copper enzymes simultaneously in one artificial system for selective C-H bond oxidation faces marked challenges. Herein, we report a new approach to the assembly of artificial monooxygenases utilizing a binuclear Cu2S2Cl2 cluster to duplicate the identical structure and catalysis of the CuA enzyme. The designed monooxygenase Cu-Cl-bpyc facilitates well-defined redox potential that initially activated O2via photoinduced electron transfer, and generated an active chlorine radical via a ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) process from the consecutive excitation of the in situ formed copper(II) center. The chlorine radical abstracts a hydrogen atom selectively from C(sp3)-H bonds to generate the radical intermediate; meanwhile, the O2•- species interacted with the mimic to form mixed-valence species, giving the desired oxidization products with inherent product selectivity of copper monooxygenases and recovering the catalyst directly. This enzymatic protocol exhibits excellent recyclability, good functional group tolerance, and broad substrate scope, including some biological and pharmacologically relevant targets. Mechanistic studies indicate that the C-H bond cleavage was the rate-determining step and the cuprous interactions were essential to stabilize the active oxygen species. The well-defined structural characters and the fine-modified catalytic properties open a new avenue to develop robust artificial enzymes with uniform and precise active sites and high catalytic performances.

Abstract
Two isomeric 2-bromomethylpyridine Cu(II) complexes [Cu(C6H9NBr)2(NO3)2] with 2-bromo-5-methylpyridine (L1) and 2-bromo-4-methylpyridine (L2) were synthesized as air-stable blue materials in good yields. The crystal structures were different with [Cu(L1)2(NO3)2] (CuL1) crystallizing in the monoclinic space group P21/c, while the 4-methyl derivative CuL2 was solved and refined in triclinic P1¯. The orientation of the Br substituents in the molecular structure (anti (CuL1) vs. syn (CuL2) conformations) and the geometry around Cu(II) in an overall 4 + 2 distorted coordination was very different with two secondary (axially elongated) Cu-O bonds on each side of the CuN2O2 basal plane in CuL1 or both on one side in CuL2. The two Br substituents in CuL2 come quite close to the Cu(II) centers and to each other (Br⋯Br ~3.7 Å). Regardless of these differences, the thermal behavior (TG/DTA) of both materials is very similar with decomposition starting at around 160 °C and CuO as the final product. In contrast to this, FT-IR and Raman frequencies are markedly different for the two isomers and the UV-vis absorption spectra in solution show marked differences in the π-π* absorptions at 263 (CuL2) or 270 (CuL1) nm and in the ligand-to-metal charge transfer bands at around 320 nm which are pronounced for CuL1 with the higher symmetry at the Cu(II) center, but very weak for CuL2. The T-dependent susceptibility measurements also show very similar results (µeff = 1.98 µB for CuL1 and 2.00 µB for CuL2 and very small Curie-Weiss constants of about -1. The EPR spectra of both complexes show axial symmetry, very similar averaged g values of 2.123 and 2.125, respectively, and no hyper-fine splitting.

Abstract
Luminescent probes have been used for the detection of various heavy metals and toxic compounds. A novel sensor with excellent sensitivity and selectivity is in high demand. Herein, we designed and synthesized a three-dimensional copper-organic framework of "pcu" α-Po primitive cubic topology with a Schläfli symbol of {4.4.4.4.4.4.4.4.4.4.4.4.*.*.*}. By taking advantage of metal clusters and a triazole ligand as the metal-organic framework (MOF) components, the newly obtained MOF is stable in various environments and can be potentially used as the sensor. Remarkably, this MOF-based sensor shows high sensitivity and selectivity toward a dysprosium ion (Dy3+) in a multiple-lanthanide mixed solution. Besides, it exhibits luminescent quenching toward various cyano compounds. This chiral cluster-based network provides a potential luminescent probe for various inorganic and organic compounds with high sensitivity and selectivity.

Abstract
Interfacial electron transfer between cocatalyst and photosensitizer is key in heterogeneous photocatalysis, yet the underlying mechanism remains subtle and unclear. Surfactant coated on the metal cocatalysts, greatly modulating the microenvironment of catalytic sites, is largely ignored. Herein, a series of Pt co-catalysts with modulated microenvironments, including polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) capped Pt nanoparticles (denoted as PtPVP ), Pt with partially removed PVP (PtrPVP ), and clean Pt without PVP (Pt), were encapsulated into a metal-organic framework (MOF), UiO-66-NH2 , to afford PtPVP @UiO-66-NH2 , PtrPVP @UiO-66-NH2 , and Pt@UiO-66-NH2 , respectively, for photocatalytic hydrogen production. The PVP appears to have a negative influence on the interfacial electron transfer between Pt and the MOF. Compared with PtPVP @UiO-66-NH2 , the removal of interfacial PVP improves the sluggish kinetics of electron transfer, boosting photocatalytic hydrogen production.

Autocatalytic photoredox Chan-Lam coupling of free diaryl sulfoximines with arylboronic acids. Nat Commun 2021; 12:932.

Abstract
N-Arylation of NH-sulfoximines represents an appealing approach to access N-aryl sulfoximines, but has not been successfully applied to NH-diaryl sulfoximines. Herein, a copper-catalyzed photoredox dehydrogenative Chan-Lam coupling of free diaryl sulfoximines and arylboronic acids is described. This neutral and ligand-free coupling is initiated by ambient light-induced copper-catalyzed single-electron reduction of NH-sulfoximines. This electron transfer route circumvents the sacrificial oxidant employed in traditional Chan-Lam coupling reactions, increasing the environmental friendliness of this process. Instead, dihydrogen gas forms as a byproduct of this reaction. Mechanistic investigations also reveal a unique autocatalysis process. The C–N coupling products, N-arylated sulfoximines, serve as ligands along with NH-sulfoximine to bind to the copper species, generating the photocatalyst. DFT calculations reveal that both the NH-sulfoximine substrate and the N-aryl product can ligate the copper accounting for the observed autocatalysis. Two energetically viable stepwise pathways were located wherein the copper facilitates hydrogen atom abstraction from the NH-sulfoximine and the ethanol solvent to produce dihydrogen. The protocol described herein represents an appealing alternative strategy to the classic oxidative Chan-Lam reaction, allowing greater substrate generality as well as the elimination of byproduct formation from oxidants. N-Arylation of NH-diaryl sulfoximines faces synthetic challenges among reported methods. Here, the authors present a mild copper-catalyzed photoredox dehydrogenative Chan-Lam coupling of free diaryl sulfoximines and arylboronic acids via an auto-catalytic process.

Abstract
Photocatalytic hydrogen evolution is desired to effectively alleviate the serious crisis of energy and the environment, and the utilization of low-cost photocatalysts, especially cobalt-based MOF catalysts, is meaningful, but rarely investigated. Herein, through a self-assembly strategy, we synthesized a Co clusters-based MOF (Co3-XL) by the ligand N,N'-bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-7-ene-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxdiimide bi(1,2,4-triazole), containing abundant carbonyl O atoms in the channels of the 3D skeleton, and a large porosity of 50.7%. The as-synthesized MOF can be stable in the pH range of 3-10 and shows a narrow band gap of 1.82 eV. Furthermore, its maximum amount of water absorption can reach 192 cm3/g. Under irradiation of simulated solar light, the rate of hydrogen evolution is 23.05 μmol·h-1·g-1 among 12 h with the presence of co-catalyst Pt and photosensitizer RhB. The reaction mechanism has been probed by the transient photocurrent response and steady-state photoluminescence spectra. Therefore, as a narrow band gap photocatalyst, the cobalt clusters-based MOF (Co3-XL) has potential applications for hydrogen evolution from water.

Abstract
A discrete trinuclear Cu(ii) complex, namely, [Cu3(pzdc)2(dpyam)2(H2O)4] (1) (H3pzdc = pyrazole-3,5-dicarboxylic acid, dpyam = 2,2′-dipyridylamine) was simply synthesized by the sonochemical process and structurally characterized. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that three adjacent Cu(ii) centers are linked via two bridging pzdc ligands to form a trinuclear Cu(ii) unit. Each trinuclear Cu(ii) unit contains open coordination sites with two trigonal bipyramidal Cu(ii) centers and one elongated octahedral geometry. Moreover, the open coordination site of 1 was occupied by a small molecule, leading to the guest-induced structural transformation with chromism that was verified by FT-IR, UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra, elemental analysis, PXRD, and SEM techniques. Compound 1 exhibits color change along with structural transformation in methanol media and after the dehydration process. Also, 1 shows different color responses after exposure to different amine vapors. In addition, compound 1 was conveniently deposited onto a filter paper by a sonochemical method used as a portable test strip for the discriminative qualitative detection of amines.

Abstract
Copper(II) oxide featuring a narrow bandgap and low toxicity has been frequently applied in the visible-light-driven photocatalytic hydrogen evolution, but it suffers from large intrinsic overpotential and low water adsorption capacity. Herein, we report a self-templated strategy for the preparation of carbon-doped CuO hollow spheres (C-CuO HSs) through thermal transformation of a hierarchical MOF. The hierarchical Cu-MOFs not only act as a template to form interior voids during the thermal transformation, but also serve as precursors to dope C atoms into the CuO lattice. The as-synthesized C-CuO HSs exhibits remarkable photocatalytic performance with a H2 evolution rate of 67.3 mmol/g/h and the apparent quantum efficiency of 25.3 % at 520 nm in the present of eosin-Y photosensitizer. The high performance of C-CuO HSs is attributed to the hierarchical porous structure and modulated electronic structure of CuO by C-doping with well exposed reactive sites, high water adsorption capability, and low water reduction reaction barrier. The results presented in this work might shed light on the design of high-performance photocatalysts for various energy-related applications.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been shown to be an excellent platform in photocatalysis. However, to suppress electron-hole recombination, a Pt cocatalyst is usually inevitable, especially in photocatalytic H2 production, which greatly limits practical application. Herein, for the first time, monodisperse, small-size, and noble-metal-free transitional-metal phosphides (TMPs; for example, Ni2 P, Ni12 P5 ), are incorporated into a representative MOF, UiO-66-NH2 , for photocatalytic H2 production. Compared with the parent MOF and their physical mixture, both TMPs@MOF composites display significantly improved H2 production rates. Thermodynamic and kinetic studies reveal that TMPs, behaving similar ability to Pt, greatly accelerate the linker-to-cluster charge transfer, promote charge separation, and reduce the activation energy of H2 production. Significantly, the results indicate that Pt is thermodynamically favorable, yet Ni2 P is kinetically preferred for H2 production, accounting for the higher activity of Ni2 P@UiO-66-NH2 than Pt@UiO-66-NH2 .

Abstract
Heterogeneous catalysis can be enhanced through the construction of effective atom connection for rapid electron transport on the catalyst surface. Hence, this study proposed a new strategy for electron transfer regulation to facilitate redox cycle of Cu(II)/Cu(I). The objective was achieved by successful construction of copper-containing covalent bond through the in situ growth of porous g-C3N4 with oxygen dopants and nitrogen defects (O-CND) on CuAlxOy substrate (CuAl@O-CND). On the basis of X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) and other characterization results, the facilitated redox behavior of copper species by electron transfer regulation was ascribed to the formation of a C-O-Cu bond on the porous-rich superficial of the catalyst; these covalent C-O-Cu bonds shortened the migration distance of electrons between Cu(II) and Cu(I) via Cu(I)-O-C-O-Cu(II) bridge. The construction of copper-containing covalent bonds in the catalyst resulted in efficient PMS activation for a rapid redox cycle of Cu(II)/Cu(I), triggering a series of reactions involving the continuous production of three highly active species (SO4·-, ·OH and 1O2). The rapid diffusion and transportation of the generated active species from porous structures directly attack typical pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs), achieving superior catalytic performance. This study provides a new routine to construct a C-O-Cu bond for PMS activation by regulating the electron transfer to accelerate the redox behavior of copper species for environmental remediation.

Coordination-Bond-Driven Dissolution-Recrystallization Structural Transformation with the Expansion of Cuprous Halide Aggregate. Inorg Chem 2020; 59:13326-13334.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with cuprous-halide-aggregates have shown superiority as organic LED (OLED) and semiconductor materials, while engineering MOF flexibility by involving the expansion of cuprous aggregates remains a great challenge. In this particular work, a dissolution-recrystallization structural transformation (DRST) with the dramatic growth of CuI-I aggregates, from 2D NJNU-100 to 3D NJNU-101 has been successfully realized. The unsaturated coordination nodes (2-positional nitrogen atoms) in NJNU-100 have been demonstrated to be the driven force for DRST to NJNU-101 via the formation of coordination bonds. The structural transformation process was irreversible and observed with optical microscopy and powder XRD. The expansion of CuI-I aggregates was also computational simulated accompanying with the rotation of the neutral tripodal TTTMB ligand (1,3,5-tris(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)-2,4,6-trimethylbenzene) and the reduction of CuII to CuI. Moreover, the intermediate product NJNU-102 was captured by adding the planar molecular anthrancene to shut down the reaction, where only partial 2-positional nitrogen atoms coordinated to the aggregates and the anthrancene was oxidized to anthraquinone. NJNU-102 has further confirmed that DRST involved the breakage and recombination of coordination bonds and the electron transfer. NJNU-100 and NJNU-101 could be applied as semiconductor and OLED materials. This work has provided insights for crystal engineering, especially for the construction of the CuIxXy aggregates, and illustrated that DRST could be controlled with a rational design (as the unsaturated coordination modes).

Abstract
A mixed-ligand strategy has been used to construct stable luminescent coordination polymers (CPs). An ultra-stable Zn(ii) coordination polymer, [Zn(H3tpb)(Hbtc)]n (1) was hydrothermally synthesized by employing a new tripodal pyrazole ligand H3tpb and a classical carboxylic ligand H3btc (H3tpb = 1,3,5-tris(pyrazolyl)benzene, H3btc = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid). Complex 1 exhibits a 2D sql network. Importantly, 1 not only possesses excellent thermal stability but also shows superior chemical stability in terms of water resistance, acid/base aqueous solutions tolerance (pH = 2-12), and organic solvents resistance. This excellent structural stability was further illustrated from the perspective of thermal decomposition kinetics. The luminescence properties were investigated, showing that complex 1 displays high sensitivity and selectivity for detecting Fe3+ and Cr2O72- ions in aqueous solutions via luminescence quenching effects.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of distinctive porous crystalline materials constructed by metal ions/clusters and organic linkers. Owing to their structural diversity, functional adjustability, and high surface area, different types of MOF-based single metal sites are well exploited, including coordinately unsaturated metal sites from metal nodes and metallolinkers, as well as active metal species immobilized to MOFs. Furthermore, controllable thermal transformation of MOFs can upgrade them to nanomaterials functionalized with active single-atom catalysts (SACs). These unique features of MOFs and their derivatives enable them to serve as a highly versatile platform for catalysis, which has actually been becoming a rapidly developing interdisciplinary research area. In this review, we overview the recent developments of catalysis at single metal sites in MOF-based materials with emphasis on their structures and applications for thermocatalysis, electrocatalysis, and photocatalysis. We also compare the results and summarize the major insights gained from the works in this review, providing the challenges and prospects in this emerging field.

Abstract
Extending photoresponse ranges of semiconductors to the entire ultraviolet–visible (UV)–shortwave near-infrared (SWIR) region (ca. 200–3000 nm) is highly desirable to reduce complexity and cost of photodetectors or to promote power conversion efficiency of solar cells. The observed up limit of photoresponse for organic-based semiconductors is about 1800 nm, far from covering the UV–SWIR region. Here we develop a cyanide-bridged layer-directed intercalation approach and obtain a series of two viologen-based 2D semiconductors with multispectral photoresponse. In these compounds, infinitely π-stacked redox-active N-methyl bipyridinium cations with near-planar structures are sandwiched by cyanide-bridged MnII–FeIII or ZnII–FeIII layers. Radical–π interactions among the infinitely π-stacked N-methyl bipyridinium components favor the extension of absorption range. Both semiconductors show light/thermo-induced color change with the formation of stable radicals. They have intrinsic photocurrent response in the range of at least 355–2400 nm, which exceeds all reported values for known single-component organic-based semiconductors. Developing new materials with broadband photoresponse is highly desirable for realizing commercial photodetectors with extended detection ranges. Here, the authors report a cyanide-bridged layer-directed intercalation approach to design viologen compounds with enhanced broadband photoresponse.

Abstract
Development of low-cost and efficient (electro)catalysts with tunable 2e/4e oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) selectivity toward energy conversion, biomimetic catalysis, and biosensing has attracted growing interest. Herein, we reported that carbon nanohybrids with O- or N-coordinated Cu (Cu-OC or Cu-NC) showed superior activity for 2e and 4e electrocatalytic ORR with selectivities of 84.0% and 97.2%, respectively. Experimental evidence demonstrated that the strong electron-rich O-doped carbon in Cu-OC donated electrons to Cu2+, weakening the binding strength of H2O2 at Cu-O centers and facilitating the 2e ORR pathway for selective production of H2O2. However, the poor electron-donor ability of the N-doped carbon in Cu-NC made Cu-N sites more electron deficient due to the reduced electron transfer from N-doped carbon to Cu2+, promoting 4e ORR by enhancing adsorption of O2 and the ORR intermediates. The high 4e ORR activity of Cu-NC rendered its potential for application in a Zn-air battery and oxidase-mimicking activity for 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and ascorbic acid (AA) oxidation. The maximal velocity (Vmax) of TMB and AA oxidation over Cu-NC was higher than some natural oxidases and noble-metal-based artificial enzymes. The lower activation energy for AA oxidation over Cu-NC resulted in a 263-fold higher oxidative rate than TMB, further prompting nonenzymatic sensing of AA by the competitive oxidation strategy.

Abstract
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) based on spiro-OMeTAD have achieved efficiencies greater than 20% in recent years; however, poorly designed dopants and ambiguous working mechanisms are still obstacles that restrict the process of commercialization. Various dopants have been introduced to modulate the electrical properties of spiro-OMeTAD, often accompanying some negative problems, such as complex synthetic routes and accelerated degradation of perovskite. Here, two novel metal organic complexes (Cu-2Cl and Cu-4Cl) with similar molecular fragments are designed and synthesized to investigate the effects on the chemical p-doping of spiro-OMeTAD. The unique coordination environment of copper ions and harmless oxidation byproducts make Cu-2Cl superior for oxidation of spiro-OMeTAD, and the possible synergetic mechanism of the heterogeneous reactions with Li-TFSI is also proposed. Utilizing Cu-2Cl-doped hole transport materials to fabricate PSCs will facilitate hole transport, reduce interfacial charge recombination, and passivate the trap states of perovskite, resulting in a champion efficiency of 20.97%. In addition, the intrinsic solid-state hydrophobic characteristics of Cu-2Cl nanoparticles well dispersed in the hole transport layer successfully suppress the invasion of water vapor, and the corresponding device retains 84% of its original efficiency after being stored for 720 h in ambient air condition.

Abstract
Aerobic photo-oxidation of sulfide into sulfoxide in water is of great interest in green chemistry. In this study, three highly stable Ir(III)-Zr(IV) metal-organic frameworks (Ir-Zr MOFs), namely Zr6-Irbpy (bpy is 2,2'-bipyridine), Zr6-IrbpyOMe (bpyOMe is 4,4'-dimethoxy-2,2'-bipyridine), and Zr6-Irphen (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline), are constructed by using [Ir(pqc)2(L)2]Cl complexes (where pqc is 2-phenylquinoline-4-carboxylic acid and L is an ancillary ligand bpy, bpyOMe, or phen) as linkers and Zr6 cluster as nodes. The constructed Ir-Zr MOFs present high catalytic activity on aerobic photo-oxidation of sulfide into sulfoxide under visible light irradiation in water at room temperature. Moreover, the reaction is high chemoselectivity and functional group tolerance. The catalyst can be readily recycled and reused at least 10 times without loss of catalytic activity. Mechanism studies demonstrate that superoxide radical is the reactive oxygen species in the sulfoxidation, which is generated by electron transfer from the excited triplet photosensitizer 3[Ir-Zr-MOF]* to O2. The high activity of photocatalytic sulfoxidation in water may be attributed to the stabilization of the persulfoxide intermediate by hydrogen bond formation with water solvent, which accelerates the conversion of persulfoxide into sulfoxide and prevents further oxidation of sulfoxide into sulfone. This work provides a new strategy for the green synthesis of sulfoxides under ambient conditions.
