Despite the promise of utilizing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as highly tunable photocatalytic materials , systematic studies that interrogate the relationship between their catalytic performances and the amount of function-alized linkers are lacking. Aminated linkers are known to enhance the absorption of light and afford photocatalysis with MOFs under visible-light irradiation. However, the manner in which the photocatalytic performances are impacted by the amount of such linkers is poorly understood. Here, we assess the photocatalytic activity of MIL-125, a TiO 2 /1,4-benzenedicarboxylate (bdc) MOF for the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde when increasing amounts of bdc-NH 2 linkers (0%, 20%, 46%, 70% and 100%) are incorporated in the framework. Analytical TEM allowed assessing the homogeneous localization of bdc-NH 2 in these mixed-linker MOFs. Steady state reaction rates reveal two regimes of catalytic performances: a first linear regime up to ~50% bdc-NH 2 into the hybrid framework whereby increased amounts of bdc-NH 2 yielded increased photocatalytic rates, followed by a plateau up to 100% bdc-NH 2. This unexpected " saturation " of the catalytic activity above ~50% bdc-NH 2 content in the framework whatever the wavelength filters used, demonstrates that amination of all linkers of the MOF is not required to obtain the maximum photocatalytic activity. This is rationalized on the basis of mixed-valence Ti 3+ /Ti 4+ intermediate catalytic centers revealed by Electron Spin Resonance measurements and recent knowledge of lifetime excited states in MIL-125-type of solids.
