Abstract

Alizarin red undergoes rapid photoassisted decomposition in air-equilibrated aqueous TiO 2 dispersions under visible light radiation (λ > 420 nm). Proton NMR, chemical oxygen demand (COD Cr ), UV−visible, IR, GC−MS, and spin-trapping ESR spectroscopic techniques were employed to obtain details of the photodegradation of alizarin red. Peroxides and carbonyl species are the first intermediates observed during the process. The major component of the peroxides produced is H 2 O 2, and no organoperoxides were detected. We have also confirmed that in addition to CO 2 and to smaller carbonyl species the principal intermediate produced is phthalic acid, which is unable to degrade further because it does not absorb the actinic visible light radiation (λ > 420 nm). The photodegradation kinetics are discussed in terms of the Langmuir−Hinshelwood model, a case of saturation type kinetics. A mechanism for the photoassisted degradation of alizarin red mediated by TiO 2 particles under visible light radiation is proposed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
