Abstract

Novel porous TiO₂@Cu₃(BTC)₂ composites, which were synthesized using ionic liquids (ILs) as solvents, exhibited excellent activity for photooxidation of styrene to 4-aryl tetralones and promoting the Glaser coupling reaction with O₂ under light irradiation. It was discovered that the transformation between Cu²⁺ and Cu⁺ was crucial for enhancing the photocatalytic performance.
