2 Experimentl 1. Mterils Chrcteriztion The smples were chrcterized using X-ry diffrction (D/MAX-2000 with CuKα rdition), scnning electron microscopy (HITACHI S4800) nd trnsmission electronic microgrph (JEOL JEM-2100, operted t 200 KV) nd nitrogen sorption (Quntchrome NOVA 4000e). The Brunuer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method ws utilized to clculte the specific surfce re; pore volume nd pore dimeter distriution ws derived from the dsorption isotherms y the Brrett-Joyner-Hlend (BJH) model. ζ potentils of the polycrystlline TiO 2 prticles (0.05 g/l in tert-utyl lcohol) were mesured fter dding ech cid (ph mintined t 1.0) using Mlvern Zetsizer Nno ZS. 2. Photoctlytic Activity Test The oxidtion rections were crried out in self-designed 150 ml rector contining 0.10 g of TiO 2, 10 ml of deionized H 2 O nd ml of toluene or cinnmyl lcohol. Six 6-W lmps (wvelengths 310 nm) were used s the UV light source. Before we mesured the photoctlytic properties, ll the smples including P-25 were wshed with 0.2 M NOH nd distilled wter for severl times. Energy dispersive X-ry spectroscopy (EDX, JEM-2100) nlysis (Tle S2) reveled tht no significnt S species were detected, indicting tht the sulfte ws removed. After rection t 20 C for 2 h, the products were extrcted with diethyl ether nd nlyzed using gs chromtogrph (Shimdzu, GC-17A); lnk experiments showed no mesurle oxidtive products; the rections were repeted three times with vrition of ± 3%.

The rhomus shpe in Fig. S5 ws oserved through [11 1 ] zone xis which displyed the (101) nd (011) fces with the interfcil ngle of 82.4o. The interfcil ngle is consistent with the theoreticl vlue. Bsed on the nlysis of HRTEM imge, the geometry of single crystlline ntse TiO2 is dechedron with the exposure of {001} fcets (see the model 3D view).

The rection ws occurred t 110 oc for 48 hour. Addition of (c, d) H2SO4 or (e, f) HF to the ove precursor solution followed y similr rections led to the formtion of mesoporous TiO2 single crystls. The inserted SAED ptterns confirm the single crystlline structure.

Incresing the clcintion temperture resulted in grdul decrese of mesoporous structure. Nevertheless, mesoporous structure ws still oserved even fter eing clcined t 450 C. The retined surfce re ws determined s 105 m2/g, which is significntly higher thn polycrystlline TiO2 (62 m2/g) Further increse of the clcintion temperture to 650 C cused collpse of the mesoporous structure, corresponding to the surfce re decresed to 26 m2/g.
