Abstract
Photoirradiation (λ = 436 nm) of a deaerated 2-propanol aqueous solution containing nitrobenzene and rhodium-loaded silica-coated cadmium sulfide nanoparticles produced azoxybenzene with relatively high selectivity (68%), the photocatalytic activity being enhanced with a decrease in the size of the semiconductor particle core.Keywords
