Degradation of Azo Dyes by Photocatalysis of Fe(Ⅲ)-oxalate Complexes/H_2O_2 in Aqueous Non-ionic Surfactant Triton X-100 Solution

Two azo dyes,C.I.Reactive Red 195(RR195)and C.I.Acid Black 234(AB234)were degraded by photocatalysis of Fe(Ⅲ)-oxalate complexes/H2O2 in aqueous non-ionic surfactant,Triton X-100(TX-100)solution.Some factors affecting the dye degradation such as TX-100 concentration,irradiation intensity,and sodium chloride were investigated.The interaction and competition between dye and TX-100 during the degradation were also examined using spectrophotometry and maximum bubble pressure method,respectively.The results indicated that TX-100 showed a significant reduction effect on degradation of two azo dyes,but which was largely confined to TX-100 concentration below the Critical Micellar Concentration(CMC).And the reduction was considerably decreased above the CMC,especially in the case of AB234.Moreover,the reducing effect of TX-100 on dye degradation almost did not vary with irradiation intensity.And the impact of sodium chloride on dye degradation was limited by the addition of TX-100.

[Azo-Hyd] Tautomerism and Structure of Selected Metal Complex Dyes AM1 and ZINDO/1 Methods

Quantum-chemical calculation methods have been used to examine an influence of tautomeric equilibrium [Azo Hydrazo] on a structure of 1:2 chromium metal complex dyes called Gryfalan Navy Blue RL (CI 15 707, Acid Blue 193) and Gryfalan Black RL (Acid Black 194). Chromatographic analysis indicates that synthesis yields a mixture of several dyes with different shades. Studies conducted to date have suggested that such dye complexes can constitute Drew-Pfitzner or Pfeiffer-Schetty structural isomers [1]. It is a know fact, that o-hydroxy-azo dyes exist in equilibrium of tautomeric azo and hydrazone forms. We decided to examine, whether color properties of examined metal-complex dyes can be influenced also by an azo-hydrazone equilibrium and what kind of influence on it has sulphonic groups present in molecules. Calculation and optimization of the geometrical structure were performed using the AM1 methods for monoazoo-hydroxy-azo dyesand ZINDO/1 for 1:2 chromium metal complex dyes. It was stated that monoazo dyes can create complexes in both forms: azo and hydrazone, because energy differences between each form of the metal complex dye are so small, that the monoazo dye can, in practice, create complexes in both the azo and the hydrazone form, with energy differences not exceeding about 4 - 11 kcal/mol. It is calculated that spatial structure changes with an angle of about 90° between two molecules of the dye, and angles of 10° - 20° between the naphthalene moieties. Similar electron density on the hydroxyl and ketone groups suggests that the mixture contains a dominant share of the azo form. The presence of an ionised sulphonic group was also found to affect on the tautomer equilibrium.

The Role of Aromatic Schiff Bases in the Dyes Techniques

Anil compounds are Schiff bases derived from aniline moiety containing phenyl or substituted phenyl group, which sometimes called Azo dyes. These Schiff bases can be directly prepared from aromatic amine with aromatic carbonyl groups, which are stable and can be manipulated under different and suitable conditions. The phenomena of coordination of Schiff bases with metal ions give the Schiff bases the good advantages to be introduced in the dyes synthesis. The classification of dyes is based on the chemical structure or on the basis of the chromophoric system. The metal complex dyes are combinations of dyestuff and metal ions, in which the coordination complex can be applied or used to be improvement factors in dye techniques. The investigation and the characterization of the resulted dyes were performed by using different physical techniques. The produced dyes were applied to different fibres, such as sheep wool and goat hair with two Schiff bases synthesised from salicylaldehyde either with 2-aminophenol or 2-aminobenzyl alcohol. Also the investigation includes the effect of mordant type on the dyeing process.

Pt Deposition on Anode Enhances the Performance of Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell with Non-Cross-Linked Gel Electrolyte

We fabricated dye-sensitized solar cells with non-cross-linked fluorinated gel electrolyte. The application of fluorinated gel to electrolyte is a challenging issue at present.

The Pt was deposited by means of a DC sputtering technique. The studies showed that the deposition time strongly affected both open voltage and short-circuit current of the cell. The adaptive thickness of the Pt layer was determined to be 10 nm for the non-cross-linked fluorinated gel electrolyte cells.

Acetylacetone-Based Electrolyte in Dye Sensitized Solar Cell

Dye sensitized solar cells attract much attention for a clean energy generation device. Among several solvents for the electrolyte, we investigated here the cell characteristics with acetylacetone as a solvent. The electric conductivity of the electrolyte increases as the concentration of polyethylene glycol (PEG) decreases or that of ionic liquid increases. The addition of pyridine into the electrolyte improves both the open voltage and the short current density. On the other hand, the replacement of PEG with fluorinated oligomer in the gel electrolyte highly increases the short current density where the open voltage is not varied. As the concentration of ionic liquid increase, the open voltage and the short current density gradually increase. When more than 20 wt.% of the ionic liquid was mixed, the gelation was not obtained. As a result, acetylacetone is a practical solvent for a gel electrolyte with the fluorinated oligomer and ionic liquid.

Electric Conductivity of Fluorinated Oligomer Gel Electrolyte Including Ionic Liquid and Performance of Dye Sensitized Solar Cell

Fluorinated oligomer gel is suitable to the electrolyte of dye sensitized solar cell. This article studied mainly in the scope of electric conductivity, including ionic liquid in the electrolyte. It was found that the ratio of mixing with dimetyl sulfoxide and the concentration of LiI affect the conductivity. The behavior is different depending on the type of ionic liquid. Although the mixing ionic liquid enhances the conductivity, the short circuit current density of assembled solar cell with it was suppressed so much.

Addition of Pyridine to Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell Including Fluorinated Oligomer Gel Electrolyte

Fluorinated oligomer gel is suitable to the electrolyte of dye-sensitized solar cell for low cost production. In this article, addition of pyridine was investigated for the purpose of enhancing the short current density. Two kinds of ionic liquids were tested: imidazolium and pyrazolium systems. The two different stages of adding pyridine to the electrolyte were considered and the amount of pyridine was studied. It was found that the electrolyte including pyrazolium ionic liquids to which pyridine was added before the mixing with fluorinated oligomer showed the highest electric conductivity, short current density and open voltage. This resulted in the highest conversion efficiency of 4%. As the amount of pyridine increased, the fill factor and the open voltage were improved at first, and then the short current density increased. If the pyridine was added more, the short current density conversely decreased.

Unusual selective reactivity of the rare-earth metal complexes bearing a ligand with multiple functionalities

Ligands play a key role in controlling activity of organometallic complexes so that development of new ligands to overcome the challenge is the main topic of modern chemistry.The first example of 1,1-hydride migratory insertion and intramolecular redox reaction has been realized in this work by applying a new ligand in rare-earth metal chemistry.The novel rare-earth metal complexes L^(Mes)RECH2TMS(THF)(RE=Y(1a),Dy(1b),Er(1c),Yb(1d),L^(Mes)=1-(3-(2,6-iPr_(2)C_(6)H_(3)N=CH)C8H4N)-CH_(2)CH_(2)-3-(2-CH2–4,6-Me_(2)C_(6)H_(2))-(N(CH)_(2)NC),THF=tetrahydrofuran)bearing a ligand with imino,indolyl,NHC(N-heterocyclic carbene)multiple functionalities were synthesized and characterized.Treatment of complexes 1 with silanes(PhSiH3or PhSiH2Me or PhSiD3)selectively produced the unprecedented 1,1-hydride(or deuterated H)migratory insertion of the indolyl moiety of the novel unsymmetrical dinuclear rare-earth metal complexes 2.The complex 2a reacts with Ph_(2)C=O to give the selective C=O double bond insertion to the RE–Co-methylene-Mesbond product 3a which further reacts with another Ph_(2)C=O(or DMAP,4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine)affording the novelμ-η^(2):η^(3)-dianionic 3-iminoindolyl dinuclear rare-earth metal complex 4a.The latter is formed through an unusual intramolecular redox reaction(through electron migration from the 2-carbanion of the indolyl ring to the imino motif)resulting in the re-aromatization of the indolyl ring.

Preparation and properties of chitosan–metal complex：Some factors influencing the adsorption capacity for dyes in aqueous solution

Chitosan–metal complexes have been widely studied in wastewater treatment, but there are still various factors in complex preparation which are collectively responsible for improving the adsorption capacity need to be further studied. Thus, this study investigates the factors affecting the adsorption ability of chitosan–metal complex adsorbents, including various kinds of metal centers, different metal salts and crosslinking degree. The results show that the chitosan–Fe（ Ⅲ） complex prepared by sulfate salts exhibited the best adsorption efficiency（100%） for various dyes in very short time duration（10 min）, and its maximum adsorption capacity achieved 349.22 mg/g. The anion of the metal salt which was used in preparation played an important role to enhance the adsorption ability of chitosan–metal complex. SO4^（2-） ions not only had the effect of crosslinking through electrostatic interaction with amine group of chitosan polymer, but also could facilitate the chelation of metal ions with chitosan polymer during the synthesis process.Additionally, the p H sensitivity and the sensitivity of ionic environment for chitosan–metal complex were analyzed. We hope that these factors affecting the adsorption of the chitosan–metal complex can help not only in optimizing its use but also in designing new chitosan–metal based complexes.
