Structure and catalytic activity of a manganese(III) tetraphenylporpholactone.
A manganese(III) complex of tetraphenylporpholactone, Mn(TPPL)Cl, was synthesized and characterized, including by single-crystal X-ray diffraction; the catalytic activity of this complex for olefin epoxidation reactions is compared with that of manganese(III) tetraphenylporphyrin chloride, Mn(TPP)Cl.
