Photocatalytic conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural to 2,5-diformylfuran by S-scheme black phosphorus/CdIn2S4 heterojunction

In this paper, a S-type BP/CIS heterojunction was prepared by in situ growth method and applied to photocatalytic oxidation of HMF to DFF. The electron transfer pathway and the reaction pathway are deduced by DFT and relevant characterizations.
