The development of direct conversion for selective functionalization of inert methane plays a key role in the field of chemical sciences. In this study, a photocatalytic approach using NaTaO3 as the catalyst and alkali chloride solution as the chlorine source was successfully implemented to convert methane into methyl chloride under ambient conditions. The best photocatalyst, Ag2O/NaTaO3, achieved a CH3Cl yield of 152 mu mol g(-1) h(-1) in aqueous NaCl solutions with an apparent quantum yield of 7.2% under 254 nm light irradiation. This work provides a meaningful approach for the conversion of methane into chloromethane under normal conditions.
The development of direct conversion for selective functionalization of inert methane plays an important role in the chemical sciences. Here, we report a photocatalytic approach to successfully convert methane into methyl chloride over NaTaO3 photocatalyst using an alkali chloride solution as the chlorine source under ambient conditions, which can overcome disadvantages of toxicity and corrosiveness in the traditional chlorination of methane. Various noble metals and oxide cocatalysts (Pt, Pd, Au, Ag, and Ag2O) and different chloride ion solutions (NaCl, KCl, LiCl, MgCl2, BaCl2, CaCl2, CuCl2, FeCl3, ZnCl2, etc.) are investigated to optimize the photocatalytic chlorination processes. Ag2O/NaTaO3 is the best photocatalyst, giving the maximum CH3Cl yield of 152 mu mol g(-1) h(-1) in aqueous NaCl solutions and an apparent quantum yield of 7.2% under 254 nm monochromatic light irradiation. The target product CH3Cl is verified to be formed by a direct combination of the photoinduced species center dot CH3 and center dot Cl on the Ag2O surface. This work provides a meaningful approach for the conversion of methane into chloromethane under normal conditions.
