Abstract
A new biogenic potentially tetradentate ligand, L-2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzylamino)succinic acid, has been synthesized. Upon reaction with FeCl3 in the presence of triethylamine, it afforded the complex [Et3NH][Fe(HL)2] (1). The complex was structurally characterized and was used for homogeneous photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB), malachite green (MG), crystal violet (CV) and rhodamine B (RhB) under visible-light irradiation in aqueous solution in the presence of H2O2.
