Catalytic properties of cobalt complexes with tetrapyrazino porphyrazine and phthalocyanine derivatives

The catalytic activity of cobalt complexes with octaphenyltetrapyrazinoporphyrazine and phthalocyanine derivatives containing branched peripheral substituents is studied in heterogeneous catalysis of the oxidation of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (SDC) with atmospheric oxygen. Cobalt phthalocyanines are shown to display higher catalytic activity than cobalt complexes with octaphenyltetrapyrazinoporphyrazine. The highest efficiency of heterogeneous catalysts is attained at temperatures of 298–303 K.
