Active species formed in a Fenton-like system in the medium of triethylammonium acetate ionic liquid for hydroxylation of benzene to phenol

Add time:09/07/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

High-valent iron(IV)-oxo species was proved to be the main oxidizing species for hydroxylation of benzene to phenol by a Fenton-like reagent in triethylammonium acetate ionic liquid via UV–vis and ESI-MS characterization, while hydroxyl radical was excluded by detailed investigations. It was found that the formation of hydroxyl radical was prohibited by the reduction of redox potential of Fe(III)/Fe(II) couple in triethylammonium acetate medium, leading to a decreased over-oxidation of benzene than that in aqueous solution. The reaction mechanisms for hydroxylation of benzene, as well as for over-oxidation of phenol by iron(IV)-oxo species were proposed. The latter is partly prohibited by the hydrogen-bond interaction between as-produced phenol and acetate anion of the ionic liquid.
