The aerobic, selective oxygenation of alkanes via C-H bond activation is an important research challenge. Photocatalysis offers the potential for the introduction of additional concepts for such reactions. Visible light photoactive semiconductors such as bismuth oxyhalides (BiOX, X = Cl and Br) used in this research typically oxidize organic compounds through photocatalyzed formation of strongly oxidizing holes. The reactive oxygen species formed react with organic compounds in one-electron processes, leading to radical intermediates and nonselective oxidation. Such oxidation reactions generally lead to total oxidation. Here, impregnation of BiOX with a polyoxometalate, H5PV2Mo10O40, as a strong electron acceptor changed the reactivity of BiOX, leading to Mars-van Krevelen-type reactivity, that is, photoactivated oxygen donation from BiOX to the organic substrate followed by reoxidation by O2 and catalysis. This conclusion was supported by mechanistic studies involving isotope labeling studies. In this way, ethane was selectively oxidized to acetaldehyde in a flow reactor with a turnover number (24 h) of 415.

A silver-catalyzed highly efficient and regioselective synthesis of ketones from a wide range of alkynes is described. The reaction is dramatically accelerated by its performance in aqueous emulsion, which is self-assembled by the addition of silver perfluorooctanesulfonate (1) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) to water. The reaction is conducted under convenient conditions with broad substrate scope, including a variety of aromatic and aliphatic terminal alkynes and internal alkynes. Furthermore, the air- and light-stable silver catalytic microemulsion can be reused for 4 times with minimal change in catalytic efficiency.
