Catalytic activity on Co(II), Mn(II) and Cu(II) complexes bound to maleic acid alternating copolymers
Copolymers and terpolymers of maleic anhydride as insoluble supports for Co(II), Cu(II) and Mn(II) catalysts, have been synthesized. The structure of polymeric matrices were studied by C-13 DD/CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy. Thermal properties of polymeric complexes were examined by DSC techniques. The complexes of Mn(II), Co(II) and Cu(II) ions were used as heterogeneous catalysts in test reaction of degradation of isopropanol. The kinetic data of dehydration, dehydrogenation and isomerization within dehydrogenation of isopropanol were presented and activation energies were estimated.
