Preparation and Characterisation and performance of Copper (II) surfactant as Cu(II) complex

Organic synthesis, under environment-friendly circumstances, has a great impact on sustainable development. In this perspective, visible light photocatalysis has emerged as a green model, as this offers an energy-efficient pathway towards organic conversion. Light has been used as an energy source in this study, which is also a green approach to a sustainable environment. An investigation of the effects of various physical parameters, like the amount of complex, catalyst dose, and varying polarity of solvent methanol-benzene, on the photocatalytic degradation of surfactant as copper (II) mustard 2-amino 6-methyl benzothiazole complex has been carried out under the UV-visible light source. Biocidal activities of Staphylococcus aureus have also been studied in this work. The rate of percent degradation has been found to increase with an increase in the range of parameters. This study provides a deeper experimental knowledge of the photocatalysis processes as well as microbial activities of the copper (II) mustard 2-amino 6-methyl benzothiazole complex. This article deals with advances in photocatalytic methods under non-aqueous media over the past few years.
