LaMnO3 catalyst is first prepared and further partially substituted with Sr and Cu to prepare Lao.sSro.2MnO3 and Lao.sSro.2Mno.sCuo.203, and catalytic activities and fundamen- tal characteristics of these three catalysts are compared. The results show that phenol removal efficiency achieved with Lao.sSro.2Mno.sCuo.203 reaches 100% with the operating temperature of 200℃ and the rate of mineralization at 300℃ is up to 100%, while the phenol removal efficiencies achieved with Lao.sSro.2MnO3 and LaMnO3 are up to 100% with the operating temperature of 300℃ and 400℃, respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis shows that the addition of Sr and Cu increases the lattice oxygen of Lao.sSro.2Mno.sCuo.203, and further increases mobility or availability of lattice oxygen. The results indicate that Lao.sSro.2Mno.sCuo.203 has the best activity for phenol removal among three catalysts prepared and the catalytic activity of phenol oxidation is enhanced by the introduction of Sr and Cu into LaMnO3. Apparent activation energy of 48 kJ/mol is calculated by Mars-Van Krevelen Model for phenol oxidation with Lao.sSro.2Mno.sCuo.203 as catalyst.展开更多
The kinetics of ternary complex formation involving Cu(5-X-1, 10-phen) and threonine (CuAL, A=5-X-1, 10-phen; L=threonine or represented by O-N; X=NO_2, Cl, H, CH_3) has been studied by temperature-jump and stopped-fl...The kinetics of ternary complex formation involving Cu(5-X-1, 10-phen) and threonine (CuAL, A=5-X-1, 10-phen; L=threonine or represented by O-N; X=NO_2, Cl, H, CH_3) has been studied by temperature-jump and stopped-flow methods. The formation rate constants, k_f(M^(-1).s^(-1)), for the complexation reaction, CuA + LCuAL, are as follows; X=NO_2, 8.68×10~8; X=Cl, 7.13×10~8; X=H, 6.12×10~8; X=CH_3, 5.42×10~8. The rate constants for zwitterion attack are nil within experimental error. It has been found that a linear free energy relationship exists between the stability(logK_(CuAL)^(CuA) of the complexes CuAL and log kf as follows: IogK_(CuAL)^(CuA)=0.13 + 0.83 logk_f, r=0.99. It suggested that the formation rate governed the stability of the ternary complexes. The rates of formation of the ternary complexes increased with decreasing electron-donating property of the substituents. A linear relationship was found to exist as expressed by the following equation: log(k_f^R/k_F^O) = 0.097σ, r=0.96. A mechanism involves a rapid equilibrium between CuA and L followed by a slow ring closure of L.展开更多
