Abstract

The 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaphenylporphyrinato manganese(III) chloride was prepared and its behaviour as epoxidation catalyst was studied. The role of the phenyl substituents in the ß-pyrrolic positions concerning the stability of the catalyst to the reaction conditions and the efficiency and selectivity of the oxidations was accessed in a comparative study with MnTPP and MnEtio II.
