Über Struktur und Aktivität der den H2O2-Zerfall katalysierenden Cu2+-Komplexe. V. Vergleich der katalytischen Aktivität der Cu2+-Komplexe isomerer β-Hydroxythiophen-Derivate. Mettallionen und H2O2, 9. Mitteilung

The catalytic properties in H₂O₂ decomposition of the Cu²⁺-chelates of 2- Acetyl-3-hydroxy-thiophene (I) and 3-Acetyl-4-hydroxy-thiophene (II) have been investigated. Evidence is given that the catalytic activity of the chelates is a function of the respective bond orders of the α, β (I) and β, β′ (II) thiophene bonds of the chelate ring.
