By using reflux calcination method, facile fabrication of NiWO4/g-C3N4 nanocomposites were accomplished. Upon purging with N2, the as-prepared nanocomposites found an active visible-light-driven photo-catalyst for the hydrogenation of styrene to ethylbenzene in alcoholic suspension. Moreover, the hydrogenation intermediates were acknowledged by using gas chromatography–mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) and UV-Visible spectroscopy. This novel catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic activity and stability in styrene hydrogenation with no considerable loss of its initial activity for up to five times of recycling. At the same time, this method eliminated the use of high pressure hydrogenation reactors without the need for external sources of energy. |
