Visible light activation of C–Cl and C–F bonds in persistent organic pollutants using cerium( iii ) triamidoamine complex
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: . Hence, the photo-reactivity of 1 with carbon-halogen bonds has been established with numerous examples, including Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and fluorinated compounds. The photoactivation of POPs is rapid, but the photoactive nature of the cerium(iv) products precludes complete conversion. This study provides insight into the activation of POPs that may benefit the future design of photodegradation approaches for these highly problematic compounds.
