Ž . Several manganese III porphyrins showed significantly increased turnover-numbers for the catalytic epoxidation of Ž . styrene upon addition of bulky Lewis acids such as ZnTPP and MgTPP TPPs tetraphenylporphyrin . Catalytic enhancement of twoto four-fold, depending on the additive, was observed with a manganese porphyrin bearing bis-pyridyl groups. The enhancement is primarily attributed to ...

Two manganese(III) porphyrins: manganese(III) tetraphenylporphyrin chloride and manganese(III)-tetrakis(3-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin chloride were tested as ionophores for the construction of new diclofenac-selective electrodes. The electroactive material was incorporated either in PVC or a sol-gel matrix. The effect of different plasticizers and additives (anionic and cationic) on the potentiomet...

The remarkable aliphatic C-H hydroxylations catalyzed by the heme-containing enzyme, cytochrome P450, have attracted sustained attention for more than four decades. The effectiveness of P450 enzymes as highly selective biocatalysts for a wide range of oxygenation reactions of complex substrates has driven chemists to develop synthetic metalloporphyrin model compounds that mimic P450 reactivity....

A new porphyrin-based microporous MOF, {Mn(II)0.5[Mn(II)4Cl(Mn(III)Cl-ttzpp)2(H2O)4]}·(DEF)20·(CH3OH)18·(H2O)12 (UTSA-57), has been constructed from {5,10,15,20-tetrakis[4-(2,3,4,5-tetrazolyl)phenyl]porphyrinato} manganese(III) chloride as the metalloligand. The MOF adopts the rare scu topology with one-dimensional square nanotube-like channels of about 20 Å. UTSA-57a exhibits permanent porosit...

Manganese protoporphyrin IX was recombined with apoproteins of cytochrome c peroxidase, horseradish peroxidase, myoglobin, and hemoglobin to prepare artificial hemoproteins containing the manganese porphyrin in place of protoheme or iron protoporphyrin IX. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of manganese (II) protoporphyrin IX and its apohemoprotein complexes were measured at Xand K-b...

The conditions of the use of the manganese/porphyrin/imidazole system needed to be improved in order to obtain larger amounts of models of metabolites. An increase of the oxidation yields and a better preservation of this catalytic system have been obtained on the examples of various alkanes, by an acid addition in the reaction mixture. Three manganoporphyrins were checked for evaluation of the...

The water soluble porphyrin tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphine (H2TMpyP) and its copper(II) derivative (CuTMpyP) convert Z-poly(dG-dC) to the B-form. For H2TMpyP, the fraction Z character (fr-Z) is given by fr-Z = 1.0 - 21 rO and for CuTMpyP, fr-Z = .94 - 12 rO where rO identical to [Porphyrin]O/[DNA]O. Neither the manganese(III) derivative of of this porphyrin (MnTMpyP) nor tetrakis(2-N-methy...
