This study employed a green strategy to immobilize sulfonated cobalt phthalocyanine onto reduced graphene and investigated its catalytic activity in the degradation of phenol. The results showed that more than 90% of phenol can be removed within 75 min, and the presence of graphene positively affected the catalytic activity. Theoretical calculations revealed the nature of the catalytic activity and a detailed degradation route was established based on theoretical calculations and experimental results.
The fundamental mechanistic understanding of the working principle of metal phthalocyanine (MPc) + H2O2 system, at molecular level, is in its nascent stage. In this paper, a green strategy was employed for the immobilization of sulfonated cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) onto reduced graphene with assistance of bio-synthesized nanocellulose, and the resulting graphene-supported-CoPc (CoPc&G) was applied for the catalytic degradation of phenol solution with H2O2 as oxidant. More than 90% of phenol can be removed within 75 min, and the existence of graphene clearly has a positive effect on the catalytic activity. Theoretical calculations were conducted to unveil the catalytic nature of CoPc&G. H2O2 was favorably chemisorbed onto CoPc&G in the form of OOH-, hydroxyl radicals were favorably formed by homolytic cleavage of O-O bonds, and DG value for the formation of reactive species was decreased with the existence of graphene. Density of states (DOS) analysis shows that graphene could effectively boost the electronic activity, reduce HOMO-LUMO gap, and strengthen the polarizability of the catalyst, thereby lower the free energy gap for the enhanced generation of reactive species. A detailed catalytic degradation route of phenol with CoPc&G + H2O2 system was established based on the combination of theoretical calculations and experimental results. (c) 2022 Elsevier Inc.
