This study introduces g-C3N4/Ag hybrids as a promising catalyst for CO2 cycloaddition. The coupling of a semiconductor into the plasmonic system enhances the activity of the reaction. The mechanism involves CO2 chemisorption by ACN and the activation of propylene oxide by photo-generated electrons from ACN transferring to Ag. Experimental evidence confirms the importance of plasmon excitation.
Photocatalytic CO2 cycloaddition is a promising approach for CO2 value-added processes. However, the efficiency of plasmon-assisted CO2 cycloaddition still needs to be improved and the reaction mechanism is unclear. Herein, g-C3N4/Ag (ACN-Ag) hybrids exhibited superior activity of CO2 cycloaddition by coupling a semiconductor into the plasmonic system, in which the ACN grafting amino group by the formation of carbon vacancies can enhance CO2 chemisorption; meanwhile, photo-generated electrons from ACN transfer to Ag to form high-energy electrons, which can activate propylene oxide, accelerating the ring-opening step. Importantly, photo-generated electron injection from ACN to Ag and the interaction between Ag nanoparticles and ACN were confirmed by single-particle photoluminescence spectroscopy. The wavelength-dependent activity demonstrated that the plasmon excitation is crucial for the reaction. Moreover, in situ single-particle PL quenching caused by propylene oxide and in situ electron paramagnetic resonance verified the activation of propylene oxide by ACN-Ag. This work is conducive to an in-depth understanding of the mechanism of CO2 cycloaddition at the single-particle level and provides guidance for the organic synthesis.
