Reversible uptake of molecular oxygen and carbon monoxide by a new polyoxime–copper complex
Abstract
The copper complex of a polyoxime, {[CH2]1·6[C(
NOH)C(
NOH)]0·8[C(
O)]0·2} catalyzes the ‘Michael’type addition reaction of acrolein and an alcohol yielding exclusively β-alkoxypropionaldehyde, polymerizes acrylonitrile under H2 at 40–90 atm and reversibly takes up molecular oxygen and carbon monoxide even in methanol or water after being treated with hydrazine hydrate.
