resumo
The synthesis and structural characterization of novel metal-organic-framework-type materials obtained from the reaction of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[ 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-(4-pyridylsulfanyl) phenyl] porphyrin (H(2)P1) and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-pyridyl) porphyrin (H(2)P2) with copper(II) acetate is reported. The new material, CuP1S, shows higher heterogeneous catalytic activity than the homogeneous porphyrin-copper(II) complex CuP1 in the oxidation of catechol into ortho-benzoquinone in the presence of air (O-2) or H2O2 (30 %).
