Monitoring the length-controlled synthesis of one-dimensional metalloporphyrin-containing coordination polymer particles and their photocatalytic properties

Abstract

In this study, we investigated the length-controlled synthesis of one-dimensional (1D) metalloporphyrin coordination polymer particles (CPPs) through a bottom-up strategy assisted by an anion surfactant. We achieved the formation of 1D nanorod and nanowire structures, which showed efficient photocatalytic ability towards methylene blue (MB) decomposition under visible light illumination.
