Schiff bases complexes immobilized at nanosilica as catalysts in ozone decomposition

Анотація
The influence of Mn(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and ligands, L1 and L2 (Fig) on nanocatalysts catalytic activity in ozone decomposition reaction were studied. The immobilization of a ligand and a complex formation were proved by IR and UV-VIS spectroscopy. When the complex is formed it shifts C=N band in IR spectra to shorter wavelengths. The shift of band in UV-VIS spectra is also an evidence for a metal coordination. The half time of ozone decomposition (the bigger the better) is an evaluation parameter of complex activity. The influence of a central atom on catalytic activity of a mono complex could be represented as follows:
