Competitive O-H and C-H oxidative addition of CH3OH to rhodium(II) porphyrins.
Rhodium(II) porphyrins react with CH(3)OH in benzene by alternate mechanisms that give H-CH(2)OH and H-OCH(3) bond activation in different methanol concentration regimes which is a rare example of transition metal reactivity with methanol.
