Catalytic oxidation of heterocyclic ketones by hydrogen peroxide at presence of Cu(II) and Fe(III) porous coordination polymers

Abstract

Porous coordination polymers (PCPs) of 3d metals can be considered as promising heterogeneous catalysts for oxidation reactions, especially for fine organic synthesis. A distinctive feature of the use of such catalysts is a possibility to perform the reactions under conditions of heterogeneous catalysis (including using a flow reactor), that significantly simplifies the separation of the catalyst from the reaction mixture and the purification of the product itself. Determination of the factors which make influence on the catalytic activity of such systems is an important task of modern physical chemistry.
