The current work deals with the catalytic reductive dechlorination and detoxification of CPE by Pd/Fe bimetal. CPE was effectively dechlorinated to 1-phenyl ethanol (PE) accompanied by the equivalent release of chloride. The extent of CPE dechlorination increased with temperature,Fe dosage and Pd loading. A decrease in solution pH increased CPE dechlorination,resulting presumably from an increase in hydrogen production. Under the specific conditions of 20 g/L Pd/Fe,0.10% Pd (w/w) and initial pH 5-6,the CPE dechlorination was completed within 145 min. The dechlorination fol-lowed a pseudo-first-order kinetics with an activation energy of 56.7 kJ/mol. The results of toxicity testing showed that CPE was very toxic to Chlorella,whereas PE showed little toxicity. The toxicity of the reaction solution declined gradually and the pro-moting effects on Chlorella intensified consequently with the dechlorination process. Thus,the reductive dechlorination of CPE to PE by Pd/Fe was a detoxification process. It may be used to effectively reduce the toxicological effects of CPE-contaminated wastewater,thereby enhancing the performance of subsequent biological processes in wastewater treatment.展开更多

This compound was then used as an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of 4,4'-(arylmethylene)bis(1H-pyrazol-5-ols) through the condensation reactions of 1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-one with several different aromatic aldehydes in ethanol at 75 °C. The present methodology offers several advantages over existing methodologies, such as excellent yields, simple procedure,easy work-up and ecofriendly reaction conditions.展开更多
