Integrated nickel/polymer dual catalytic system for visible-light-driven sulfonamidation between aryl halides and aryl sulfonamides

• By merging transition metal and heterogeneous photocatalyst, a metal-photoredox system has attracted more attention for cross -coupling of various dual photoredox catalysis. However, there is a grand challenge for the attenuated nucleophilicity of sulfonamides relative to alkyl amines. Herein, an integrated dual catalytic system of porous carbon nitride nanosheet with nitrogen vacancies (NV-P-C3N4)as a conjugated polymer semiconductor host in combination with transition-metal nickel (Ni) was constructed by a defect and morphology regulation strategy toward visible-light-driven sulfona-midation between aryl halides and aryl sulfonamides. The excellent nickel/photoredox-catalyzed C-N coupling reaction performance is ascribed to the large specific surface area, abundant active sites, long carrier lifetime, and efficient transfer and separation of photo -excited electrons and holes. This work highlights the opportunity to cooperate with heterogeneous catalysts and active metal sites for challenging cross-coupling reactions.
