Rapid and Efficient Oxidation of Alcohols with NaIO4 Catalyzed by Manganese(III) Tetrapyridylporphyrin Supported on Magnetic nanoparticles

In this work, manganese (III) tetrapyridylporphyrin supported on magnetic nanoparticles catalyst was used as an efficient and heterogeneous catalyst for rapid oxidation of alcohols with sodium per iodate under mild conditions. The prepared catalyst, [Mn(TPyP)OAc@SiO2-Fe3O4], was characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy, and diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectrophotometry and scanning electron microscopy was investigated in the oxidation of alcohol with NaIO4. Also its reusability was checked in the oxidation reactions. The effect of reaction parameters such as solvent and oxidant in the oxidation of alcohols was also investigated.. The reactivity of this catalyst.
