Novel Polyaniline Supported Cobalt Catalyzed Aerobic Oxidation of Unsaturated Organic Compounds
The oxidation of organic compounds with carbon-carbon double bond with molecular oxygen under atmospheric pressure in the presence of new polyaniline supported catalyst 1 has been studied. This catalyst turned out to be efficient and selective for oxidation of some unsaturated organic compounds. Oxidation of alkenes, cycloalkenes and terpenes give corresponding epoxy derivatives, whereas organic compounds with carbon carbon double bond in benzylic position give ketones as a main product.
