摘要:A flow tube reactor containing iron or zinc powder in a nitrogen atmosphere is capable of performing >90% anaerobic reductive dehalogenation of the cancer drugs ifosfamide and cyclophosphamide at 400 °C using toluene, alcohol or water as proton donors and iron or zinc as reducing agents. The products are all chlorine-free, as proven by GC-MS. The process is particularly interesting for large-scale industrial applications.
