To develop a photocatalyst with catalytical activity for substrates with low reactivities is always highly desired. Herein, based on the principle of structure–property relationships, we rationally designed the natural product cercosporin, the naturally occurring perylenequinonoid pigment, to develop a novel organic perylenephotoreductant, hexacetyl reduced cercosporin (HARCP), through structural manipulation. Compared with cercosporin, HARCP shows prominent electrochemical and photophysical characteristics with greatly improved photoreductive activity, fluorescence lifetime and fluorescence quantum yield. These properties allowed HARCP as a powerful photoreductant to efficiently realize a series of benchmark reactions, including photoreduction, alkoxylation and hydroxylation to construct C–H and C–O bonds using aryl halides as substrates under mild conditions, all of which have never been achieved by the same photocatalyst. Thus, this study well supports the notion that the principle between structural manipulation and photocatalytic activity is of great significance to design customized photocatalysts for photoredox chemistry.

Ni-deposited mesoporous graphitic carbon nitride (Ni-mpg-CNx) is introduced as an inexpensive, robust, easily synthesizable and recyclable material that functions as an integrated dual photocatalytic system. This material overcomes the need of expensive photosensitizers, organic ligands and additives as well as limitations of catalyst deactivation in the existing photo/Ni dual catalytic cross-coupling reactions. The dual catalytic Ni-mpg-CNx is demonstrated for C–O coupling between aryl halides and aliphatic alcohols under mild condition. The reaction affords the ether product in good-to-excellent yields (60–92 %) with broad substrate scope, including heteroaryl and aryl halides bearing electron-withdrawing, -donating and neutral groups. The heterogeneous Ni-mpg-CNx can be easily recovered from the reaction mixture and reused over multiple cycles without loss of activity. The findings highlight exciting opportunities for dual catalysis promoted by a fully heterogeneous system.

Herein, we describe an improved method to synthesise mono-, di- and tetra-cyanocalix[4]arene and report their crystal structure determinations. We also report our attempts to further functionalise the cyanocalix[4]arenes into dithiadiazolyl-calix[4]arenes
