Sh. Chen et al., SYNTHESIS, CONFIGURATION AND PROPERTIES O F ESTROGENIC STEROID PORPHYRIN ENZYME MODEL COMPOUNDS, Huaxue xuebao, 55(7), 1997, pp. 716-722
The model compounds of estrogenic steroid - bisporphyrins (3a) and est
rogenic steroid monoporphyrin (4a) have been synthesized by the reacti
on of porphyrin 1 with acyl. choride of estradiol 2 followed by insert
ing of metal ion. The structures and configurations of 3a,4a,and the c
orresponding precursors 3 and 4 were confirmed by UV - Vis, IR, H-1 NM
R spectra and elemental analysis. The catalytic property of 3a towards
oxidation of p - benzenediol was investigated.
