Abstract

The research successfully synthesized a composite MIL-100(Fe) modified Fe3O4 (Fe3O4@MIL-100(Fe)) catalyst and examined its efficiency in degrading methyl orange (MO) through the photo-Fenton process compared to Fenton. The different percentages of Fe3O4 were integrated into MIL-100(Fe) and their effects on material characteristics and degradation capabilities were studied. Ex-situ synthesis involved varying Fe3O4 weight ratios (3, 10, and 20% w/w). Characterization techniques confirmed the integration of Fe3O4 and MIL-100(Fe) and revealed changes in surface area, pore size, and thermal stability with Fe3O4 addition. Meanwhile, removal tests showed promising results with the photo-Fenton process exhibiting maximum efficiency (95.51%) using 10% Fe3O4@MIL-100(Fe). This study provides valuable insights into developing efficient photo-Fenton catalysts for environmental remediation, particularly for addressing dye pollution in wastewater by highlighting the potential of Fe3O4@MIL-100(Fe) composites in this context.

Abstract

Zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) is renowned for its high adsorption capacity and frequently adsorbs organic pollutants. However, its high band gap energy has limited its photocatalytic activity, thus necessitating a modification for enhance performance enhancement. This study focuses on developing a ZIF-7 composite material that integrates adsorption and photocatalysis to remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particularly hexanal. Modifications were made by incorporating ZnO, TiO2, and ZnO/TiO2 via a solvothermal method using dimethylformamide (DMF). ATR-FTIR analysis was employed to monitor any changes in peak intensity related to the C=O vibrations of hexanal around 1700 cm-1. The results showed that all samples effectively adsorbed hexanal, reducing peak intensity after UV irradiation, and confirming successful photocatalysis. Notably, TiO2@ZIF-7 exhibited the highest photocatalytic performance with 88.06% degradation efficiency. This study confirms that the ATR-FTIR method can be used to monitor the success of adsorption and photocatalysis and shows the potential for developing composite materials to remove VOCs such as hexanal.

Abstract

The Chan–Evans–Lam coupling refers to a valuable method for constructing C–O and C–N bonds under mild conditions. Nevertheless, the development of efficient and reusable heterogeneous catalysts remains limited. In this study, we investigated copper-based metal–organic frameworks as catalysts for C–O bond formation between 4-methoxyphenylboronic acid and phenol. The study revealed that HKUST-1 exhibited a significant enhancement in performance when compared to Cu-BDC, yielding up to 86% at room temperature and demonstrating superior accessibility of Cu2+ active sites. A systematic optimization of reaction parameters identified NEt3 as the most effective base, DCM as the optimal solvent, and a mild temperature increase to 40 °C as the key factor enabling a maximum yield of 94%. Studies on recyclability demonstrated that HKUST-1 exhibited high catalytic performance over multiple cycles without significant structural degradation, as confirmed by PXRD analysis. Overall, this work highlights HKUST-1 as an efficient, robust, and reusable heterogeneous catalyst for Chan–Evans–Lam C–O coupling, thus demonstrating its potential for sustainable synthetic applications.
