Application

Cerium(IV) sulfate can be used to catalyze:
  • Selective oxidation of secondary alcohols to the corresponding ketones using sodium bromate as the oxidant.
  • Direct sulfonation of methane with sulfur trioxide to methanesulfonic acid in sulfuric acid.
  • Synthesis of 14-aryl- or 14-alkyl-14H-dibenzo[aj]xanthenes from the condensation of 2-naphthol and aldehydes under solvent-free and microwave conditions.

Reactant for:
  • Preparation of spherical-like nanoparticles CeO2 nanoparticles for NO reductions reactions

  • Oxidizing agent

A simple wet chemical method involving only ultrasonic processing in dilute ceric sulfate (CS) was used to functionalize carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Unexpectedly, single-walled and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs and MWCNTs) were cut, oxidized, and disintegrated by sonication in 0.1 N

A flow injection biosensor system was proposed for the highly sensitive detection of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP). The system is based on the preoxidation by ceric sulfate to the corresponding benzoquinone (2,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone: 2,6-DC-1,4-BQ), which was characterized using cyclic voltammetry, hydrodynamic voltammetry, and
