S. Tangestaninejad et al., Preparation of an insoluble polymer-supported Mn (III) porphyrin and its use as a new alkene epoxidation and alkane hydroxylation catalyst, J CHEM R-S, (10), 2001, pp. 444-445
An easy and effective method to prepare a new supported Mn(III)-porphyrin b
y immobilisation of Mn(III)-5,10,15, 20-Tetrakis(p-sulfonatophenyl)porphyri
n, [Mn(TPPS)], on poly(4-styrylmethyl)pyridinium chloride (PSMP) is reporte
d. This catalyst was found to be efficient for catalysing alkene epoxidatio
n and alkane hydroxylation with sodium periodate. This new heterogenised me
talloporphyrin catalyst is of high stability and reusability.
