Oxidation of pinane using transition metal acetylacetonate complexes immobilised on modified activated carbon

Chemical-activated carbons from peach stones for the adsorption of emerging contaminants in aqueous solutions

“…Therefore, thus from our results and those found in the literature [25], the BET specific surface area, micropore volume and the total pore volume decreased upon nitric acid oxidation of the original activated carbon. An effect that may explain this result is the formation of macropores in the oxidation process, due to the destruction of the pore walls; this phenomenon is usually associated to the use of high concentration oxidizing agents.…”

Covalent Bonds on Activated Carbon

“…[21] The modification of the activated carbon surface was achieved by oxidation with nitric acid, providing carboxylic acid groups. The conversion of the carboxylic acid into the acyl chloride was then carried out by heating with thionyl chloride, leading to 1.…”

Fe(III) complex anchored SBA-15 is a new heterogeneous catalyst for the cleavage of aliphatic CC bond of styrene and its derivatives

“…[7,8]. Among these functionalized spacer groups, -NH 2 has widely been utilized for the synthesis of mesoporous Schiff-base metal complexes [9][10][11].…”
