Keywords: metalloporphyrin biomimetic catalyst lignin catalytic oxidative degradation aromatic monomer.They researched the compound: 5,10,15,20-Tetrakis (4-methoxyphenyl)-21H,23H-porphine cobalt (II)( cas:28903-71-1 ).Synthetic Route of C48H38CoN4O4. Aromatic heterocyclic compounds can be divided into two categories: single heterocyclic and fused heterocyclic. In addition, there is a lot of other information about this compound (cas:28903-71-1) here.
Lignin, an abundant biomass waste, was degraded under microwave irradiation with H2O2 as the oxidant and metalloporphyrin as the catalyst. The effect of substituent group (4-methylphenyl, 4-methoxyphenyl, 4-bromophenyl and 4-carboxyphenyl) at the meso-benzene ring of metalloporphyrin, central metal ion (Co, Mn, Ni and Fe) and axial ligand (chlorine, p-hydroxypyridine, p-pyridinecarboxaldehyde) on the degradation of lignin was investigated. The electron-withdrawing group not only reduces the electron cloud d. on the porphyrin ring, but also promotes the formation of higher active intermediate [(Porp)MeIV=O]+·. Therefore, the presence of stronger electron-withdrawing substituents makes the metalloporphyrins more efficient in lignin degradation Compared to Co porphyrin, there are less amount of [(Porp)MeIV=O]+· formed when Mn, Fe or Ni porphyrin was used as the catalyst for degrading lignin. Consequently, Co porphyrin contributed to a higher YAM (the yield of aromatic monomers). The strong nucleophilicity and the low steric hindrance of axial ligand was advantageous for the stability of metalloporphyrins, which is favorable for improving the catalytic activity to the degradation of lignin. It is found that the YAM increases 20.1% from 5.6% by using CoTBrPPCl as the reaction catalyst under the optimized conditions.
