Abstract
Reaction of 1-naphthol and related phenols with hydrogen peroxide catalysed by 5,10,15,20-tetra(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrinatoiron(III)chloride gives corresponding quinones and oxidative phenol coupled products, whereas the reaction of naphthols with hydrogen peroxide catalysed by 5,10,15,20-tetramesitylporphyrinatoiron(III)chloride give above products along with quinone epoxides in moderate yields. The reaction of quinone with potassium superoxide catalysed by Me 12TPPFe(III)Cl and p-MeOTPPFe(III)Cl give higher yields of quinone epoxides than the reaction of quinone with hydrogen peroxide catalysed by 5,10,15,20-tetraarylporphyrinatoiron(III)chlorides.
