Synthesis and Antitumor Evaluation of Selected 5,6-Disubstituted 1(2)H-Indazole-4,7-diones

A series of novel aziridinyl-substituted 1(2)H-indazole-4,7-diones and related 1(2)H-indazole-4,7-diones was synthesized and tested against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma growth in male CF1 mice.Ten of the test compounds, including two aziridinyl-su

Degradation of substituted phenols with different oxygen sources catalyzed by Co(II) and Cu(II) phthalocyanine complexes

Research on substituted phenol degradations has received substantial attention. In this work, effective Co(II) and Cu(II) phthalocyanine complexes as catalysts were studied to degrade toxic phenols to harmless products. The effect of various process parameters, such as initial concentration of phenol, catalyst, oxygen sources, and temperature on the degradation reaction was investigated to achieve maximum degradation efficiency. The catalytic activities of Co(II) and Cu(II) phthalocyanines were evaluated for oxidation of phenolic compounds such as p-nitrophenol, o-chlorophenol, 2,3-dichlorophenol, and m-methoxyphenol. Co(II) phthalocyanine displayed good catalytic performance in degradation of 2,3-dichlorophenol to 2,3-dichlorobenzaldehyde and 2,3-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone with the highest TON and TOF values within 3 h at 50 °C. The fate of catalyst during the degradation process was followed by UV–Vis spectroscopy.

Preparation, characterization of new Co(II) and Cu(II) phthalocyanines and their catalytic performances in aerobic oxidation of substituted phenols

Substituted phenol pollutants are produced as by products of many industrial processes. Aerobic oxidations for their degradation in the context of effluent treatment or environmental remediation often lack selectivity. In this work Co(II) and Cu(II) phthalocyanines-catalyzed approach is described that converts substituted phenols into less harmfull products. New cobalt(II) and copper(II) phthalocyanine complexes are used as catalyst for degradation of substituted phenols with different oxidants. The oxidation process exhibits remarkable selectivity and conversion owing to the fact that Co(II) and Cu(II) phthalocyanines work with high performance.
