Effect of the type and time of stirring in the catalytic activity of rutheniumporphyrin

In this work, the complex (carbonyl)[tetrakis(5,10,15,20-ortho-bromo-phenyl)porphyrin]ruthenium(II) was synthesized and its behavior as catalyst was investigated in the oxidation of cyclohexane by iodosylbenzene. The influence of the stirring (mechanical and ultra-sound) of the system was investigated and the results demonstrated good efficiency, selectivity and regeneration of the catalyst, when a mixed system of stirring was used.
