title: Visible-Light-Responsive Photocatalytic Flow Reactor Composed of Titania Film Photosensitized by Metal Complex-Clay Hybrid.
abstract: Synthetic saponite containing a photosensitizing metal complex, tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(II)), in the interlayer space was complexed with anatase nanoparticles to obtain transparent hybrid film photocatalyst. The catalyst film was mounted in a flow reactor device to catalyze such photocatalytic reactions as the decomposition of aqueous acetic acid and N-alkylation of benzylamine with ethanol.
