Photocatalytic Activity: Experimental Features To Report In Heterogeneous Photocatalysis, Md. Ariful Hoque, Marcelo I. Guzman Oct 2018

Photocatalytic Activity: Experimental Features To Report In Heterogeneous Photocatalysis, Md. Ariful Hoque, Marcelo I. Guzman

Chemistry Faculty Publications

Heterogeneous photocatalysis is a prominent area of research with major applications in solar energy conversion, air pollution mitigation, and removal of contaminants from water. A large number of scientific papers related to the photocatalysis field and its environmental applications are published in different journals specializing in materials and nanomaterials. However, many problems exist in the conception of papers by authors unfamiliar with standard characterization methods of photocatalysts as well as with the procedures needed to determine photocatalytic activities based on the determination of “apparent quantum efficiencies” within a wavelength interval or “apparent quantum yields” in the case of using monochromatic …


En Route Towards Α-Benzotriazoyl Nitroso Derivatives, Jean-Christophe M. Monbaliu, Lucas K. Beagle, Judit K. Beagle, Matthias Zeller, Christian V. Stevens, Alan R. Katritzky Aug 2012

En Route Towards Α-Benzotriazoyl Nitroso Derivatives, Jean-Christophe M. Monbaliu, Lucas K. Beagle, Judit K. Beagle, Matthias Zeller, Christian V. Stevens, Alan R. Katritzky

Chemistry Faculty Publications

A new class of geminally-substituted nitroso compounds, i.e., α-benzotriazoyl nitroso derivatives, is presented. These compounds display a rather different behavior than other related nitroso compounds bearing a geminal electron-withdrawing group. An unexpected and spontaneous oxidation to the nitro analog is observed in solution.
