Resumen:
The visible light driven water oxidation reaction (WOR) by the organic electron acceptor 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQF4) was studied at the water/butironitrile interface. The WOR was performed at neutral pH, and without any metal or organometallic catalyst. The oxygen generated was measured by GC-MS and cyclic voltammetry, and the protons produced were monitored by measuring the aqueous pH. This work opens novel perspectives for water photo-xoidation in liquids and artificial photosynthesis
