Abstract

In this study, a novel Cr(III)-based coordination compound, namely [Cr(L)(phen)(COO)]2∙6H2O (1), [H2L: 3-carboxy-1-(carboxymethyl)-2-oxido­pyr­idinium, phen: 1,10-phenanthroline], was successfully synthesized via a solvo­thermal method. The structure of the synthesized coordination compound was confirmed by CCD single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound was further characterized using infrared spectroscopy, UV–Vis spectroscopy, thermogravi­metric analysis and powder X-ray diffraction. The degradation of tetracycline (TC) was investigated using the coordination compound in combination with H2O2 under simulated ultraviolet (UV) light. Detailed catalytic reaction and kin­etic studies revealed a TC degradation efficiency of 82.99 % with a rate constant of 0.0115 min-1, indicating that the coordination compound exhibits promising performance in the photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics.
