Time-dependent UV/vis absorption spectra of (a) G3, (b) G4, (c) G5 and (d) G6 in aqueous solution in the presence of 6c under 520 nm light irradiation. e Degradation kinetics fitted curves and (f) rate constants of G3, G4, G5 and G6 with 6c under 520 nm light irradiation. C0 and CT indicate the initial and intermediate concentrations of dyes, where T is the reaction time. g Removal efficiency of 6a, 6b, and 6c for photodegradation of G3, G4, G5 and G6 under 520 nm light irradiation. The error bars are calculated via repeating the measurements for three times, data are presented as the mean ± SD, n = 3. h Reuse test of 6c for photodegradation of G5.
