PET has a variety of applications in catalysis, including:
1. Organic Synthesis: PET is used to initiate and drive reactions like oxidations, reductions, and cross-coupling reactions. 2. Environmental Catalysis: PET can be employed in processes like photodegradation of pollutants and water splitting for hydrogen production. 3. Artificial Photosynthesis: Mimicking natural photosynthesis, PET can be used to convert solar energy into chemical energy.
