EFFECT OF THE STRUCTURE OF COPPER(II) COMPLEXES, ADSORBED ON THE SURFACE OF SiO2, ON THEIR CATALYTIC ACTIVITY IN OZONE DECOMPOSITION

We describe the composition, structure, and catalytic activity in the reaction of ozone decomposition for copper(II) complexes with acido ligands and immobilized Schiff’s bases (propyl benzaldimine derivatives) that are anchored on silica (silica gel, aerosil). We demonstrate methods for controlling their catalytic activity.
