The structural and morphological properties were determined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area analysis, Mott–Schottky analysis, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The Mott–Schottky analysis confirmed the formation of a p-n heterojunction, and the flat band potential values for the n-type and p-type semiconductors were found to be − 1 and 1.3, respectively. The bandgap of the composite was determined to be 3 eV using Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy (DRS). When 0.1 g of the synthesized composite was used for 90 min, it successfully degraded 91% of methylene blue with an initial concentration of 10 ppm. In the Design of Experiments (DOE) approach, the optimum conditions for this research were found to be a catalyst mass of 0.06 g, an initial dye concentration of 8 ppm, and 2% palladium doping at pH 10, resulting in a 92.38% degradation efficiency in 110 min. To model the degradation of methylene blue using the synthesized composite, the Fritz–Schlunder and Koble–Corrigan models achieved the highest correlation coefficients (0.995 and 0.992, respectively) and the lowest error functions (0.024, 0.0008) and (0.032, 0.002), respectively. Additionally, the Langmuir–Hinshelwood and Intra-particle diffusion control kinetic models showed the highest correlation coefficient (98%). In summary, the study demonstrated that the PdO/CoS composite exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity for methylene blue degradation, and the optimized conditions resulted in high degradation efficiency. The proposed kinetic models provided valuable insights into the degradation mechanism of methylene blue using the synthesized composite.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":509,"journal":{"name":"Catalysis Surveys from Asia","volume":"28 2","pages":"186 - 199"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139766146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this context, we introduce a new electro-organic approach for the synthesis of methyl cinnamate derivatives through the Heck reaction, carried out under green conditions. The conventional Heck reaction, widely used for synthesizing diverse compounds, suffers from drawbacks like the use of toxic solvents, harsh reaction conditions, and the generation of waste. To address these challenges, we employed an electrochemical method, offering a more sustainable alternative. Our electro-organic process utilized a two-electrode setup with easily available anode and cathode materials. Through the application of an appropriate potential difference, both the aryl halide and olefin substrates were electrochemically activated, leading to the formation of the desired methyl cinnamate derivatives. This innovative approach offers several significant advantages. Firstly, it eliminates the need for toxic catalysts, reducing the environmental impact related to waste disposal. Secondly, the mild reaction conditions allow for the use of a broad range of functional groups, enabling the synthesis of diverse methyl cinnamate derivatives. Moreover, the electrochemical approach demonstrates exceptional selectivity and efficiency, resulting in high product yields. Additionally, the method is easily scalable, making it suitable for large-scale production. The affordability and accessibility of the electrode materials further contribute to the sustainability of the process. In summary, our electro-organic method represents a greener and more efficient strategy for synthesizing methyl cinnamate derivatives via the Heck reaction. It not only addresses the limitations of conventional methods but also aligns with the principles of sustainable chemistry. We expect this novel methodology to find widespread applications in the synthesis of various important compounds, promoting the development of more sustainable chemical processes.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":509,"journal":{"name":"Catalysis Surveys from Asia","volume":"28 2","pages":"200 - 208"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139586684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The optimum dose for all four kinds of nanoparticles, ZnO₂, CuO₂, PbO₂, and CdO₂, was found to be 0.5 g/50 mL for the elimination of anionic dye at pH 2, 4, and 5. For ZnO₂, CuO₂, PbO₂, and CdO₂ nano photocatalyst, the maximum percentage of dye removal was recorded at 0.05 catalyst dosage. The starting concentration of dye in the series of 25–200 mg/L was measured as optimum for the highest deletion of anionic stain by dissimilar kinds of chosen adsorbents. The maximum adsorption capacity of ZnO₂ (85.69 mg/L), CuO₂ (79.04 mg/L), PbO₂ (64.12 mg/L), and CdO₂ (51.58 mg/L) was obtained at 100, 150 and 75 mg/L dye concentration. The optimum temperature for the highest removal of anionic dyes was detected at 37 °C, and the reduction examined a decline in the adsorption capacity of whole compounds as temperature decreases.
