Hydrogenative cleavage of azo compounds catalyzed by commercial zinc dust using ammonium acetate
نویسندگان
چکیده
Addition of ammonium acetate fo llowed by commerc ial zinc dust to the solution of azo compounds in methanol appcars to o ffer a general and convenient mea ns for reducing bot h sym metri ca l and unsymmetrical azo compounds to the corresponding amine/s at ambient temperature. Many other reducible and hydrogenolysable groups like -OCH1. -OH. -COOH, -CH1• -COCH) and halogens are to lerated. The reduction is fast. c lean, hi gh yie lding and inexpensive compared to earli er methods.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) photocatalysts were synthesized by sol-gel method using zinc acetate as precursor for degradation of azo dyes under UV irradiation. The resultant samples were characterized by different techniques, such as XRD, SEM, and EDX. The influence of preparation conditions such as calcination temperature and composite ratio on the degradation of methyl orange (MO) was investigated. ZnO ...

In this work, a polyimide (PI) containing triazole units was synthesized using 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole and pyromellitic dianhydride in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone. This polymer was used as the support of manganese (III) tetrakis(4-methoxylphenyl)porphyrin acetate to attain a heterogeneous catalyst; namely Mn(T4-OMePP)OAc@PI. The synthesized PI and Mn(T4-OMePP)OAc@PI were characterized by di...
