Wang,ab L. T. Kang*ab and J. N. Yao*c Due to the two-dimensional flexible structure and abundant pendant amine, graphitic-C3N4 (g-C3N4) may be easily modified by organic molecules as a promising photocatalyst for solar H2 production from water. Here, through a simple liquid chemical reaction between g-C3N4 and the precursor of m-oxo dimeric iron(III) porphyrin [(FeTPP)2O], we provide a novel route to construct a pure organic heterostructure of g-C3N4/ (FeTPP)2O on the basis of the p–p and the Fe–amine interactions. The experimental results demonstrated that (FeTPP)2O acted not just as a photosensitizer, but also played the role of a charge promotor to prohibit the recombination of the excited electrons and holes of g-C3N4. As compared to pure or mixed g-C3N4 and/or (FeTPP)2O, the obtained pure organic g-C3N4/(FeTPP)2O heterostructure exhibited dramatic photocatalytic H2 production under solar light without any cocatalysts.Introduction The increasing worldwide energy shortage and environmental issues have stimulated intensive research on searching for green technologies as sustainable ways to address these co
