Preparation characterisation and catalytic oxidation of alcohols using polymer supported Cu (II) metal complex

A new polymeric ligand (l) was synthesized by the michael addition of ethylenediamine to methyl methacrylate. the prepared ligand was complexed with cu (ii) ions,the ligand and its complex were characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic studies (ft-ir,uv-vis,1h nmr and esi-ms). square pyramidal geometry was proposed for copper complexes,on the basis of uv-vis spectroscopic data and molar conductance measurements. the catalytic application of ligand metal complex was recorded for the oxidation of cyclohexanol,benzyl alcohol,1-phenyethanol,propanol,respectively andeco-friendly,nontoxic hydrogen peroxide.
