Defect Engineering in Ce-MOF-808 toward Improved Photothermal Synergistic Catalytic Performance for Cyclohexane Oxidation

, Br), have been fabricated and presented apparently boosted activity and selectivity compared with pristine Ce-MOF-808 in photothermal synergistic catalysis of cyclohexane oxidation. The significantly enhanced catalytic activity can be attributed to the increased exposure of active sites, elevated Ce(IV) content, efficient charge transfer, suppressed charge recombination, and the promoted synergistic effect of photothermal catalysis.
