The development of photocatalysts is an essential task for clean energy generation and establishing a sustainable society. This paper describes the aggregation-induced photocatalytic activity (AI-PCA) of amphiphilic rhodamines and photocatalytic functions of the supramolecular assemblies. The supramolecular assemblies consisting of amphiphilic rhodamines with octadecyl alkyl chains exhibited significant photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation in water, while the corresponding monomeric rhodamines did not exhibit photocatalytic activity. The studies on the photocatalytic mechanism by spectroscopic and microscopic analyses clearly demonstrated the AI-PCA of the rhodamines. Moreover, the supramolecular assemblies of the rhodamines exhibited excellent photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rates (up to 5.9 mmol g h).
光催化剂的开发是产生清洁能源和建立可持续社会的一项重要任务。本文描述了两亲性罗丹明的聚集诱导光催化活性(AI-PCA)以及超分子组装体的光催化功能。由带有十八烷基链的两亲性罗丹明组成的超分子组装体在水中可见光照射下表现出显著的光催化活性,而相应的单体罗丹明则没有光催化活性。通过光谱和显微镜分析对光催化机理的研究清楚地证明了罗丹明的AI-PCA。此外,罗丹明的超分子组装体表现出优异的光催化析氢速率(高达5.9 mmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹)。
