摘要

Some metalloporphyrins (MTPPs, M = Ni, Fe, Co, and Cu) have been introduced as catalysts for the dehy-drogenative aromatization of hydrocarbons using molecular oxygen as the ultimate oxidant. The results revealed that NiTPP could efficiently catalyze the dehydroaromatization of 9,10-dihydroanthracene by O-2 to anthracene, and various substrates could be tolerated. According to the obtained results, a possible reaction pathway for the aerobic dehydrogenative aromatization of hydrocarbons under nickel porphyrin has been proposed.
