Enhancement of the catalytic activity of phthalocyanine catalysts by immobilizing them on polymer matrix has been studied. It has been found that the immobilization of cobalt(II) phthalocyanines on polymers enhances their catalytic activity in the oxidation of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate by air oxygen under mild conditions.
In this work a wide range of sulfo derivatives of cobalt phthalocyaninewas used as an example for the creation of liquid-phase systems with specified parameters. The role of the spacer bridge in the peripheral position of the macrocycle on its aggregation and coordination properties is illustrated. It was found that associated forms (H-associates) of sulfonated metal phthalocyanines, in which the ionic peripheral group is removed from the macrocycle by oxynaphthyl-/oxyphenylazo-fragments (CoTSPc2 and CoTSPc3, respectively), have absorption in the region of 620-630 nm, while the Q-band of the monomeric form is located in the region 680-700 nm. It is shown that in the concentration range of 10−5 – 10−4 M the change in the optical density for CoTSPc1 and CoTSPc2is described by a linear law. Based on the position of the absorption maxima of the Q-band, phthalocyanines are in an aggregated form in the form of H-aggregates. The study of the coordination properties of macrocycles was carried out with the addition ofbidentate DABCO molecule. The stability of monoligand complexes with DABCO in aqueous solution changes in the order CoTSPc1 > CoTSPc3 > CoTSPc2.
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.
