Abstract

Photocatalytic oxidation of substituted toluenes was investigated on irradiated TiO2 and TiO2 combined with HY15 and HY20 zeolites. In all cases the oxidation occurred in the first step exclusively on either one substituent or the other, but never on both simultaneously. In the presence of a zeolite, photooxidation conversion was higher than that obtained without zeolite.
