Notes:
The decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide by Fe(III)- and Co(III)-2,9,16,23-tetracarboxyphthalocyanine supported on poly(2-vinylpyridine-CO-styrene) and the quaternized one, was studied at pH 7.0 in aqueous media. The kinetics of this reaction was also investigated at pH 7.0 by measuring the initial velocity V0 of the increasing concentration of O2 with a Warburg respirometer. The reaction proceeded according to the catalaselike mechanism. Fe(III)-2,9,16,23-tetracarboxyphthalocyanine supported on poly(2-vinylpyridine-CO-styrene) was a remarkably effective catalyst for a H2O2 decomposition reaction. The coordination sphere around the Fe(III)-phthalocyanine ring was characterized by electronic and ESR spectroscopy. Fe(III)-phthalocyanine supported on the copolymer dispersed in water was the five-coordinated, high-spin type. A typical competitive inhibition in respect of H2O2 by CN- was observed. ESR spectrum of this system showed the low spin iron(III) in the octahedral ligand field. The polymer coils hindered undesirable dimerization of metal-phthalocyanine molecules by the shielding effect.
