Cobalt phthalocyanine catalyzed aerobic oxidation of secondary alcohols: an efficient and simple synthesis of ketones

An Efficient Method for the Olefination of Aldehydes with Ethyl Diazoacetate Using Iron (II) Phthalocyanine as Catalyst

“…Metallophthalocyanines being insoluble in common organic solvents can be easily separated from the reaction mixture for reuse. In continuation to our studies on transition metal catalyzed synthetic transformations [13][14][15][16][17], herein we report for the first time a highly efficient catalytic method for the olefination of aldehydes with ethyldiazoacetate using iron (II) phthalocyanine Fe(II) Pc 1 as catalyst in the presence of triphenylphosphine as reducing agent (scheme 1).…”

Preparation and Characterization of Inorganic-Organic Nanocomposite Coatings

“…Metallophthalocyanine (MPc) complexes have been used as alternative catalyst, because they have a similar structure to porphyrins and are cheaper, more stable to degradation with higher catalytic performance. Its incorporation with the solid supports for synthesis of heterogeneous catalysts is highly desirable (Geraskin et al, 2008;Sharma et al, 2003). The catalysts wae prepared by dispersing MPc complexes (M= Fe, Mn and Co) into the already prepared γ-alumina.…”

Photoluminescence and photocatalytic degradation studies on some metallophthalocyanines

“…Like the porphyrins, the Pc macrocycle can play host to several different metal ions in its central cavity. MPcs are attractive as semiconductor catalysts for organic reactions like oxidations, coupling and ability to absorb oxygen as well as thermal stability [1][2][3][4].…”
