V anadium (V) Oxo-Polym ers, Catalytic Activity, O xidative Cleavage o f Catechol Som e vanadium (V) oxo-polym ers such as cis-V 2W40 194^ and V 1(,0 286" exhibit high catalytic activi ty for the oxidative cleavage o f 3,5-di-r-butylcatechol. A chelated species of catechol to two va nadium atoms has been assumed as an active inter mediate based on the spectroscopic results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
