“…The ability of the compounds of the porphyrin and phthalocyanine class to catalyze the reactions of epoxidation [ 5 , 6 , 7 ], oxidation [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ], including reactions in which molecular oxygen acts as an oxidizing agent [ 10 , 12 ], is widely known. It is found that Co(II)phthalocyanine can transfer oxygen from various oxygen donors to alkanes, alkenes, phenols and thiols in the several studies [ 10 , 13 , 14 , 15 ]. The basis of catalysis reactions is a decrease in the activation energy of the process due to the formation of intermediate compounds and/or changes in the oxidation state of the metal phthalocyanine.…”
