Contamination with anthracene, as one of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), was considered as an important health issue due to its carcinogenic and mutagenic activity. In this paper, we focused on the photocatalytic degradation of anthracene in different media and in presence of various photocatalysts. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) and nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO NPs) were prepared and utilized as efficient photocatalysts to convert anthracene into safer compounds. The as-prepared photocatalysts were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and UV-VIS spectroscopy. The factors affecting the efficiency of photocatalytic degradation, including irradiation time, loading catalyst doses, pH value and H2O2 as an oxidizing agent, were investigated. The optimum photocatalytic degradation of 23 mg/L anthracene in different media was carried out at pH 7.2 with loading catalyst dose of 55.6 mg/L. In case of anthracene emulsion solution, a faster photochemical kinetic was observed in presence of ZnO NPs and more than 90% of photocatalytic degradation percentage was reached in 230 min. However, in case of anthracene aqueous solution and in presence of ZnO NPs/H2O2, a degradation efficiency of 84% was obtained within 50 min. The byproducts of 4- formyl-benzoic acid ethyl ester (98.23%) and 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, isopropyl methyl ester (0.85%)) were detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The kinetic studies were achieved and revealed that the photocatalytic degradation process obeyed a Langmuir–Hinshelwood model and followed a pseudo-first order rate expression.

We present a straightforward and generally applicable synthesis route for cofacially linked homo- and heterobimetallic porphyrin complexes. The protocol allows the synthesis of unsymmetrical aryl-based meso-meso as well as β-meso-linked porphyrins. Our method significantly increases the overall yield for the published compound known as o-phenylene-bisporphyrin (OBBP) by a factor of 6.8. Besides the synthesis of 16 novel homobimetallic complexes containing MnIII, FeIII, NiII, CuII, ZnII, and PdII, we achieved the first single-crystal X-ray structure of an unsymmetrical cofacial benzene-linked porphyrin dimer containing both planar-chiral enantiomers of a NiII2 complex. Additionally, this new methodology allows access to heterobimetallic complexes such as the FeIII-NiII containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenase active site analogue. The isolated species were investigated by various techniques, including ion mobility spectrometry, DFT calculations, and UV/Vis spectroscopy. This allowed us to probe the influence of interplane distance on Soret band splitting.

Paragraph 0044-0047, (2020/02/27)
The invention discloses a method for reducing a carboxylic acid compound into aldehyde. In a nitrogen atmosphere, in an organic solvent, a ligand/Cu catalyst, the carboxylic acid compound, an anhydride compound and hydrosilane are added by a one-pot method, a reaction is performed under the condition of the temperature of 20-120 DEG C for 2-20 h, after the reaction is completed, quenching and column chromatography separation are performed to obtain the product. The carboxylic acid compound can be successfully converted into aldehyde through one-pot reaction, especially unsaturated carboxylic acid can be reduced, and the reaction yield is generally relatively high. Compared with the prior art, the method has the outstanding advantages that the cheap copper salt is used as a catalyst, so that the experiment cost is greatly reduced. Meanwhile, the used method enlarges the application range of the reaction substrate, improves the compatibility of functional groups, and provides a new synthesis way for reducing the carboxylic acid compound into aldehyde.
