Biomimetic Nitration of Phenols Using Metalloporphyrins/H2O2/NO2 −
摘要:
An efficient metalloporphyrins/H2O2/NO2 (-) nitration of phenols has been developed. The total yield of nitrophenol could reach up to 55.1 %, which is about 4 and sixfold higher than that of horse radish peroxidase catalysis and peroxynitrite nitration, respectively. Furthermore, the nitration system attained an enhanced regioselectivity of 1.0 o/p ratio, and exhibited a good substrate scope of monophenols. This protocol is environmentally friendly compared with HNO3/H2SO4 nitration, and stable, inexpensive and organic solvent tolerant compared with enzyme catalytic nitration and peroxynitrite nitration reaction.[GRAPHICS].
