Abstract
A binuclear cadmium complex Cd2(biba)4 (Hbiba = 2-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)benzoic acid) has been successfully synthesized via solvothermal method, and characterized by single-crystal x-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, UV–Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and x-ray powder diffraction. Molecular structural analysis showed that each Cd2(biba)4 monomer was connected to four neighbors via intermolecular hydrogen bonds to form a 2D supramolecular structure. Fluorescence emission spectrum of Cd2(biba)4 was also measured in the solid state. Complex Cd2(biba)4 exhibited good photocatalytic activities for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye, sulfadiazine (SD) antibiotic and forchlorfenuron (CPPU) phytohormone under UV irradiation at room temperature. Reaction kinetics studies suggested that the photodegradation of MB, SD and CPPU were in accordance with the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The photodegradation mechanism of MB, SD and CPPU catalyzed by Cd2(biba)4 was also discussed in detail. This paper presents important examples for the photodegradation of antibiotic and phytohormone using metal–organic complex as catalyst.
期刊介绍:
Transition Metal Chemistry is an international journal designed to deal with all aspects of the subject embodied in the title: the preparation of transition metal-based molecular compounds of all kinds (including complexes of the Group 12 elements), their structural, physical, kinetic, catalytic and biological properties, their use in chemical synthesis as well as their application in the widest context, their role in naturally occurring systems etc.
Manuscripts submitted to the journal should be of broad appeal to the readership and for this reason, papers which are confined to more specialised studies such as the measurement of solution phase equilibria or thermal decomposition studies, or papers which include extensive material on f-block elements, or papers dealing with non-molecular materials, will not normally be considered for publication. Work describing new ligands or coordination geometries must provide sufficient evidence for the confident assignment of structural formulae; this will usually take the form of one or more X-ray crystal structures.
