title: Nitrous oxide reduction-coupled alkene-alkene coupling catalysed by metalloporphyrins.
abstract: Porphyrin complexes of iron, manganese and cobalt catalysed reductive dimerization of alkenes with NaBH4 under N2O. The reaction system using Fe(III) porphyrin generated an Fe(I) porphyrin intermediate that reduced N2O to regenerate Fe(III) porphyrin.
