Abstract

A high level (∼9 mM) of hydrogen peroxide is photocatalytically synthesized by using O₂ as an oxidant and 2-ethyl-9,10-anthraquinone (EAQ) as an electron condenser. The photo-catalytic efficiency of the EAQ-assisted H₂O₂ production is ca. 10-fold higher than that of H₂ generation with Pt/P25.
