The photocatalytic cleavage of the C?F bond in pentafluorophenol (PFP) with ZnO using 254 and 365 nm UV light has been investigated under different conditions. The defluoridation was monitored using an ionometer with a fluoride ion selective electrode. The photocleavage was more effective under 254 nm than under 365 nm UV light. With 254 nm UV light, TiO2-P25, TiO 2 (anatase), ZnO, and ZrO2 photocatalyzed the deflouridation of PFP, whereas CdS, CdO, and SnO2 did not. The defluoridation is enhanced by the addition of oxidants such as KIO4, KClO3, (NH4)2S2O8, and KBrO3. The periodate ion is found to be the most efficient oxidant. The defluoridation intermediates were found to be tetrafluorodihydroxybenzene, trifluorotrihydroxybenzene, and tetrafluoroquinone. CSIRO 2007.

The ability of four mononuclear nonheme iron(iv)-oxo complexes supported by polydentate nitrogen donor ligands to degrade organic pollutants has been investigated. The water soluble iron(ii) complexes upon treatment with ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) in aqueous solution are converted into the corresponding iron(iv)-oxo complexes. The hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) ability of iron(iv)-oxo species has been exploited for the oxidation of halogenated phenols and other toxic pollutants with weak X-H (X = C, O, S,etc.) bonds. The iron-oxo oxidants can oxidize chloro- and fluorophenols with moderate to high yields under stoichiometric as well as catalytic conditions. Furthermore, these oxidants perform selective oxidative degradation of several persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as bisphenol A, nonylphenol, 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) and gammaxene. This work demonstrates the utility of water soluble iron(iv)-oxo complexes as potential catalysts for the oxidative degradation of a wide range of toxic pollutants, and these oxidants could be considered as an alternative to conventional oxidation methods.

A mononuclear RuIII-OH complex oxidizes substrates such as hydroquinones in water through a pre-equilibrium process based on adduct formation by hydrogen bonding between the RuIII-OH complex and the substrates. The reaction mechanism switches from hydrogen atom transfer to electron transfer depending on the oxidation potential of substrates. This journal is
