Ja. Labinger, A SIMPLIFIED MODEL FOR CATALYZED ISOBUTANE AUTOXIDATION - IMPLICATIONS FOR THE MECHANISM OF CATALYSIS BY HALOGENATED PORPHYRIN COMPLEXES, Catalysis letters, 26(1-2), 1994, pp. 95-99
A simple kinetic model shows that a radical-chain mechanism can accoun
t for the high activity and selectivity found for oxidation of isobuta
ne to t-butanol catalyzed by highly halogenated metalloporphyrins.
