Alkene Epoxidation and Alkane Hydroxylation with Periodate Catalysed by Manganese(III) Porphyrin Supported on Poly(4-vinylpyridine)

Abstract

Sulfonated manganese(in) tetraphenyiporphyrin supported on poly(4-vinylpyridine), Mn(tpps)-PVP, can act as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for alkene epoxidation and alkane hydroxylation by sodium periodate.
