Abstract
The nitration of phenol with plasma-activated water (PAW) generated by pulsed radiation of an electric spark discharge has been studied. Long-lived nitrogen-containing active species that accumulate in water during treatment are nitrous acid and the …ONOOH/ONOO− complex, which decomposes into peroxynitrite and peroxynitrous acid. Their concentration in PAW after 10 min of treatment was ~10−3 mol/L. When PAW is mixed with phenol in a 1 : 1 ratio, the identified reaction product is 4-nitrophenol. The yield of nitration through PAW is equal to the nitration yield by the direct action of hot plasma radiation on a phenol solution.
