Photocatalytic degradation of trimethoprim on doped Ti-pillared montmorillonite
Source abstract
Abstract
Montmorillonite pillared with titanium and doped with Cr3+ or Fe3+ has been tested for the photo-degradation of the antibiotic trimethoprim (trimethoxybenzyl-2,4-pyrimidinediamine) under different conditions, namely, in the dark or in UV light, with or without catalyst, finding excellent catalytic performance under photocatalytic conditions. The degradation by-products were preliminary analysed by mass spectrometry. The results suggested that the molecule broke in two halves, corresponding to its two existing rings. The process continued with the breakage of new fragments from the trimethoxybenzene half, these fragments later reacted with the methoxy groups in this part of the molecule, giving species with m/z values higher than that for the starting molecule, and with the breakage of new fragments.
