Series of nanosized anion-containing TiO2-base materials with anatase-type structure were synthesized from N, Cl-containing precursors using two preparation methods, calcination and hydrotreatment. Samples were conditioned by a final calcination step in order to get free of surface anion impurities and their structural properties characterized by a combined X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning (SEM) and transmission (TEM) microscopy, X-ray energy dispersive (XEDS), X-ray photoelectron (XPS), and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFTS) study. The structural characterization was used to interpret the UV–vis spectra. The resulting joint information allowed the rationalization of the photocatalytic activity observed for the visible-light-assisted liquid-phase degradation of phenol. We founded that maximization of photoactivity is not related with the net absorption power of our systems in the visible range but mostly driven by a combination of two characteristics; the adequate morphological properties and the presence of negatively charged N-containing species.
