Popis: The preparation of iron-phthallocyanines encaged in molecular sieves was made from ferrocene impregnated in zeolite Y and VPI-5 molecular sieve. Both catalysts exhibit shape selectivity in the oxyfunctionalization of alkanes with tertiary butyl hydroperoxide as oxygen donor at 298 K and 0.1 MPa. As shown by turnover numbers resistance of the zeolite encaged complexes against oxidative destruction and activity in the oxidation of n-alkanes exceed by far those of free iron-phthallocyanines. Molecular graphics analysis shows the complex in both molecular sieves and presents a qualitative interpretation of the higher shape selectivity in the regioselective oxidation of n-octane on iron-phthallocyanine encaged in zeolite Y than in VPI-5.
