The Fe(III)-photoinduced degradation of 4-dodecylbenzenesulphonate (DBS) in aqueous solution was investigated. The mixing of DBS (1 mm) and Fe(III) (1 mm) solutions immediately led to the formation of a precipitate that contained DBS and monomeric Fe(OH)2+, the predominant Fe(III) species. Both species were also present in the supernatant. Irradiation of the supernatant solution resulted in a photoredox process that yielded Fe(II) and ·OH radicals. The disappearance of DBS was shown to involve only attack by ·OH radicals; the quantum yield of DBS disappearance is similar to the quantum yield of ·OH radical formation. A wavelength effect was also observed; the rate of DBS disappearance was higher for shorter wavelength irradiation. Five photoproducts, all containing the benzene sulphonate group, were identified. ·OH radicals preferentially abstract hydrogen from the carbon in the α position of the aromatic ring. The results show that the Fe(III)-photoinduced degradation of DBS could be used as an alternative method for polluted water treatment. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Based on the supramolecular interaction between vancomycin (Van), an antibiotic glycopeptide, and D-Ala-D-Ala (DADA) dipeptides, a novel class of artificial metalloenzymes was synthesized and characterized. The presence of an iridium(III) ligand at the N-terminus of DADA allowed the use of the metalloenzyme as a catalyst in the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of cyclic imines. In particular, the type of link between DADA and the metal-chelating moiety was found to be fundamental for inducing asymmetry in the reaction outcome, as highlighted by both computational studies and catalytic results. Using the [IrCp*(m-I)Cl]Cl Van complex in 0.1 M CH3COONa buffer at pH 5, a significant 70% (S) e.e. was obtained in the reduction of quinaldine B.
