Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid total destruction of chlorophenols by activated hydrogen peroxide.
Sayam Sen Gupta,Matthew Stadler,Christopher A. Noser,Anindya Ghosh,Bradley Steinhoff,Dieter Lenoir,Colin P. Horwitz,Karl-Werner Schramm,Terrence J. Collins +8 more
TL;DR: The activation of hydrogen peroxide by tetraamidomacrocylic ligand (TAML) iron catalysts is described, to destroy the priority pollutants pentachlorophenol (PCP) and 2,4,6-trichlorophenols (TCP).
Journal ArticleDOI
Humic acid modified Fenton reagent for enhancement of the working pH range
Anett Georgi,A. Schierz,Ulf Trommler,Colin P. Horwitz,Terrence J. Collins,Frank-Dieter Kopinke +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of humic acid (HA) as an iron chelator in a modified Fenton system with the aim of extending the optimum pH range for this process towards neutral conditions was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tridentate Nitrogen-Based Ligands in Cu-Based ATRP: A Structure−Activity Study
TL;DR: In this paper, the activation and deactivation parameters of eight tridentate nitrogen-based catalysts were determined with eight different tridentates nitrogen-Based ligands. And the authors found that ligands with alkyl amine or pyridine binding sites form the fastest activating catalysts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Catalytically Active μ-Oxodiiron(IV) Oxidants from Iron(III) and Dioxygen
Anindya Ghosh,Filipe Tiago de Oliveira,Toshihiro Yano,Takanori Nishioka,Evan S. Beach,Isamu Kinoshita,Eckard Münck,Alexander D. Ryabov,Colin P. Horwitz,Terrence J. Collins +9 more
TL;DR: complexes 2 catalyze the selective oxidation of benzylic alcohols into the corresponding aldehydes and bleach rapidly organic dyes, such as Orange II in MeCN-H(2)O mixtures; reactivity evidence suggests that free radical autoxidation is not involved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidation of sulfur components in diesel fuel using Fe-TAML® catalysts and hydrogen peroxide
Sujit Mondal,Yelda Hangun-Balkir,Larissa Alexandrova,Dirk D. Link,Bret H. Howard,Paul H. Zandhuis,Anthony V. Cugini,Colin P. Horwitz,Terrence J. Collins +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, an iron-containing tetraamidomacrocyclic ligand (TAML) catalyst was used to catalytically oxidize dibenzothiophene derivatives to their corresponding sulfone product in homogeneous and two-liquid phase systems.
