Quinacridone-pyridine dicarboxylic acid based donor–acceptor supramolecular nanobelts for significantly enhanced photocatalytic hydrogen production. Issue 3 (6th January 2020) - Xu, Mengyu
Abstract : Self-assembled nanobelt photocatalysts with quinacridone containing different alkyl chains as donor and pyridine dicarboxylic acid as acceptor were firstly developed for H2 evolution. SQAP-C4 without cocatalyst of Pt exhibited HER of 656 μmol h −1 g −1 . Abstract : The self-assembled nanobelt photocatalysts (SQAP-C4 and SQAP-C8 ) with quinacridone containing butyl and octyl side chains as electron donors and pyridine dicarboxylic acid as an acceptor were firstly developed for efficient hydrogen evolution. SQAP-C4 without the loading of cocatalyst Pt exhibited a superior H2 evolution reaction rate of 656 μmol h −1 g −1 and excellent stability.
