In pyridine, bis(2,2'-bipyridine)iron(II) (Fe(bpy)2+(2)) activates hydrogen peroxide for the efficient and selective catalytic dehydrogenation (oxidation) of veratryl alcohol (model-substrate monomer for lignin; 3,4-(MeO)2PhCH2OH). Several other complexes (FeII(OPPh3)2+(4), FeII(O2bpy)2+(2), FeII(MeCN)2+(4), FeII(PA)2, FeIIICl3) are effective catalysts for the dehydrogenation of veratryl alcohol and benzyl alcohol, but their selectivity (relative reactivity with 3,4-(MeO)2PhCH2OH vs. PhCH2OH) is less than the 6.1 ratio that is observed for the optimized FeII(bpy)2+(2)/H2O2/pyridine (py) system. The reactivities have been determined for several other methoxybenzyl alcohols that are model substrates for lignin (e.g., 4-MeOPhCH2OH and (MeO)3PhCH2OH).
在吡啶中,双(2,2'-联吡啶)铁(II)(Fe(bpy)₂²⁺)能激活过氧化氢,实现藜芦醇(木质素的模型底物单体;3,4-(甲氧基)₂苯甲醇)的高效选择性催化脱氢(氧化)。其他几种配合物(FeII(OPPh₃)₂²⁺、FeII(O₂bpy)₂²⁺、FeII(MeCN)₂²⁺、FeII(PA)₂、FeIIICl₃)是藜芦醇和苯甲醇脱氢的有效催化剂,但它们的选择性(与3,4-(甲氧基)₂苯甲醇相对于苯甲醇的相对反应活性)低于优化后的FeII(bpy)₂²⁺/H₂O₂/吡啶(py)体系所观察到的6.1的比例。已经测定了其他几种作为木质素模型底物的甲氧基苄醇(例如4-甲氧基苯甲醇和(甲氧基)₃苯甲醇)的反应活性。
