Degradation of octylbenzene sulfonate photoinduced by iron(III) aquacomplexes: Evidence for the fragmentation of the alkyl chain
The degradation of octylbenzene sulfonate (OBS) photoinduced by iron(III) aquacomplexes was investigated upon irradiation at 365 nm and by solar light. The photochemical degradation appears to be due to HO• radicals arising from the electron transfer in Fe(OH)2+. If oxygen does not affect the initia...
