Abstract

Co<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> mesoporous nanorods with Co<sup>2+</sup> vacancy defects exhibit highly effective catalytic activity for the oxidation of recalcitrant benzene under UV-Vis-IR illumination. The presence of defects considerably promotes the surface lattice oxygen activity of Co<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>, thus massively enhancing the catalytic activity.
