J. Yang et al., The hydroxylation and amidation of equilenin acetate catalyzed by chloro[5,10,15,20-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrinato]manganese(III), CHEM COMMUN, (7), 2000, pp. 531-532
The aromatic steroid equilenin acetate undergoes regioselective and stereos
elective hydroxylation and amidation catalyzed by a manganese porphyrin usi
ng iodosobenzene (PhIO) and N-tosyliminophenyliodinane (PhINTs) as the oxyg
en and nitrogen donor, respectively.
