Resumen: [EN] The development of heterogeneous catalysts for hydrocarbon oxidation by molecular oxygen as oxidant is an area of increasing interest from academia and chemical industry points of views. Herein, the catalytic activity of two-dimensional (2D) porphyrin metal -organic frameworks (MOFs) constituted by Co 2 + , Cu 2 + or Mn 3 + as transition metal ions coordinated to tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP) organic ligand as heterogeneous catalysts for the aerobic oxidation of benzylic hydrocarbon oxidation is reported. Selective radical quenching experiments and in -situ Raman measurements reveal the formation of superoxide/hydroperoxide and hydroxyl radicals during the catalytic reaction using Co-CoTCPP.
