A very efficient system for alkene epoxidation by hydrogen peroxide: catalysis by manganese-porphyrins in the presence of imidazole

Abstract: In the presence of imidazole, Mn-(or Fe-) porphyrins catalyse the epoxidation of various alkenes including alk-1 -enes by H20n; with chloromanganese~tetra-2,6-dichlorophenylporphyrin) as a catalyst, alkene conversion by a few equivalents of H202 is complete within less than 1 h at 20 "C and epoxide yields are very high (90-99%).

“…As shown in Fig. 9, stereospecific epoxidation of various alkenes are obtained with almost quantitative conversions and yields, and good rates (up to 100 turnovers/min) [98,100]. The H 2 0 2 -Mn(TDCPP)(Cl) -imidazole system may be used for the conversion of alkanes by using a 2 -6-fold excess of H 2 0 z [99].…”

“…[13,16] Dinuclear triazacyclononane and pyridylamine complexes were also shown to promote alkene epoxidation in the presence of H 2 O 2 . [13] Most of these oxygen transfer processes have been proposed to proceed through a high-valent oxo-manganese moiety, Mn(V) = O, stabilized by electron density donation from ligands containing both s-and p-electron systems.…”

“…Reasonably stable active complexes were found, allowing the use of various oxygen donors [1][2][3][4]. Studies and attempted rationalisations for the role of substituents at the porphyrin periphery on the catalytic activity can also be found in the literature, involving the introduction of halogens or bulky groups in the mesophenyls [5,6] or halogenation of the pyrrolic positions [7,8] of the basic meso-tetraphenylporphyrin skeleton. In specific cases elaborate porphyrin structures for the catalyst were also used [9,10].…”
