Abstract

Abstract Nanosized platinum particles loaded on the TiO 2 nanoparticles were prepared to assess its photocatalytic activity in simple one-pot synthesis of quinaldines from anilines in ethanol using UV light. The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high- resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), Brunauer– Emmer–Teller surface area, atomic force microscope and diffuse reflectance spectra. XRD ...
