Poly porphyrin polymers

It has been also found that PhIO as an oxidant in the presence of a catalytic amount of sulfonated manganese and iron porphyrin supported on poly(vinylpyridinium) polymers in olefin epoxidation and alkane hydroxylation is a better oxidant than Bu4NHS05 °. Oxidation of adamantane to 1-adamantanol in good yield using BU4NHSO5 and acetone in the presence of aqueous NaHCOs was also reported . ... 

Two older reviews summarize work in this field [124,125]. The following derivatives have been employed as porphyrins Fe(II,III) protoporphyrin-EX (heme, hemin), Fe(II,III) or Co(II) protoporphyrin-IX-diester, chlorophyllins with different metal ions in the core, Fe(II) tetraphenylporphyrin, Mg(II) or Fe(II,III) octaethylporphyrin, Fe(II,III) tetrakis[o-(alkylamido)phenyl]-porphyrin. Polymers with N-donor groups are based on proteins such as poly(L-lysine), poly(L-histidine), poly(Y-benzyl-L-glutamate) or synthetic polymers such as homopolymers and copolymers with vinylpyridine, iV-vinylimidazole or ethyleneimine. 

Both of the P(V)TPP derivatives (b) and (c) (Figure 5) were polymerized by electrochemical oxidation to give polymers, whereas (a) was scarcely polymerized. (Figure 6 (A)). Consequently, poly-(b) and poly-(c), 1 D porphyrin arrays, were electrochemically deposited on the ITO electrode at potentials >1.2V and 0.9V (vs. SCE), respectively. The peak current observed around -0.4V, which was assigned to the redox reaction of the P(V)TPP moieties, increased and thus signaled the deposition of the porphyrin polymer onto the electrode.

Tetra(o-aminophenyl)porphyrin, H-Co-Nl TPP, can for the purpose of electrochemical polymerization be simplistically viewed as four aniline molecules with a common porphyrin substituent, and one expects that their oxidation should form a "poly(aniline)" matrix with embedded porphyrin sites. The pattern of cyclic voltammetric oxidative ECP (1) of this functionalized metal complex is shown in Fig. 2A. The growing current-potential envelope represents accumulation of a polymer film that is electroactive and conducts electrons at the potentials needed to continuously oxidize fresh monomer that diffuses in from the bulk solution. If the film were not fully electroactive at this potential, since the film is a dense membrane barrier that prevents monomer from reaching the electrode, film growth would soon cease and the electrode would become passified. This was the case for the phenolically substituted porphyrin in Fig. 1. 

The reduced poly-[Fe(II)TPP] porphyrin site now finds itself next to a fresh poly-[Fe(III)TPP(X)] site one polymer lattice unit further into the polymer. An electron hopping - or self exchange - reaction can then ensue, repeatedly, in successive layers and sites ... 

The method consists of the retention by sorption of the porphyrins on poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogels. Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is selected as the polymer of choice for the purification of industrial and medical wastewaters due to its capacity to form physically crosslinked hydrogels with the advantages of non-toxic, non-carcinogenic and biodegradable properties. 

The enolate species 2, derived from methacrylates with bulkier ester groups than MMA, are sterically protected against the access of BujAl under the above-mentioned conditions, even when the porphyrin moiety is a non-ortho-substituted tetraphenylporphyrin. An example is shown by the polymerization of ethyl methacrylate (EMA) using 1 (X=Me) as an initiator, where the growing species have an EtO group in the terminal enolate unit 2 (R=Et). After the addition of BujAl to the system, polymerization proceeded to 100% monomer conversion within 10 min. The Mn of the produced polymer was close to the expected value, and the MWD was narrow (Table 5, run 5). A similar result was obtained for the polymerization of isopropyl methacrylate (PMA) with the 1 (X= Mel- soBujAl system, which quantitatively gave a narrow MWD poly(methacr-ylate) with a predicted Mn (Table 5, run 6).
