Abstract
AbstractIonic liquid and buffer mixture media are first reported in the peroxidase‐catalyzed polymerization of phenol. Yield of 100% with molecular weights of 7000 KDa, as assessed by size‐exclusion chromatography (SEC), were attained using 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate–buffer mixtures with added hydrogen peroxide. The simplicity of the process and the low vapor pressure of the solvent media allow an eco‐friendly alternative to the general synthesis of polyphenolic‐type biopolymers. Evidence for the consequent polyphenol (PPO) was obtained from solid‐state 13C cross‐polarization magic angle spinning (CP‐MAS) NMR spectroscopy and FT‐IR. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
