چکیده

The catalytic effect of tetraphenylporphyrin on the oxygen reduction with ferrocene in 1,2-dichloroethane can be finely tuned by varying the molar ratio of the acid to the catalyst present in the solution. The mechanism involves binding of molecular oxygen to the protonated free porphyrin base, in competition with ion pairing between the protonated base and the acid anion present.

Competitive inhibition of a metal-free porphyrin oxygen-reduction catalyst by water.

A stopped-flow method is used to study the effects of water and reactant acid anion TB(-) = tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate on the homogeneous oxygen reduction catalyzed by the protonated tetraphenylporphyrin. Observed competitive inhibition of the catalyst is linked to the DFT free energy of extraction of O(2), water, and TB(-) from the porphyrin complex.

Effects of Redox Mediators on the Catalytic Activity of Iron Porphyrins towards Oxygen Reduction in Acidic Media

The recent surge of interest in non-noble-metal porphyrin and phthalocyanine catalysts has been prompted by their potential to replace Pt as cathodic catalysts in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). However, to realize the apparent benefits of the metal–N-coordinated catalysts in high-power fuel cells, advances in catalyst design and synthesis are required to produce catalysts wit...

Development of a Method for measuring Reactive Oxygen Radicals Levels In Vitro and Study the Effects of Vitamin C and E on Radical Production Reaction

Background: Free radicals and reactive oxygen species(ROS) are the most important factors in formation of oxidative stress reaction. Now, radical damage has been suggested to contribute to a wide variety of diseases such as Alzheimer, atherosclerosis and cancer. Transition metal ions in the presence of the various biomolecules produce these active compounds. The aim of this study is introducing...
