In recent times, it has been shown that the microporous ETS-10 titanosilicate can be used as a shape-selective photocatalyst for the decomposition of aromatic molecules (Chem. Commun. 2001, 2131). Its actual use on practical grounds is however discouraged by its too low activity, when compared with that of TiO2 photocatalysts. In the present work, we show how an ad hoc mild treatment with HF enhances the activity of ETS-10 toward the photodegradation of large aromatic molecules that are unable to penetrate inside the zeolitic pores, such as 2,5-dichlorophenol, 2,4,5-trichlorophenol, 1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene, and 2,3-dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN). The photoactivity of the acid-treated materials is comparable or even greater than that of the nonselective TiO2 catalyst. Moreover, the enhancement of the photoactivity is accompanied by a remarkable parallel increase of the shape selectivity, particularly toward DHN (k(DHN)/k(p) = 127, where P = phenol). A complete characterization (by means of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and X-ray aborption spectroscopy techniques) of a set of ETS-10 samples which have undergone a progressively severe HF treatment allows us to propose an explanation of the photocatalytic activity and selectivity of the modified materials.
