A simple, new and solvent free route to the regioselective and stereoselective synthesis of (E)-and (Z)allylamines has been achieved by the reaction of Baylis-Hillman acetates with various nitrogen nucleophiles in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undec-7-ene (DBU). This method requires very short reaction time and accomplished by S N 2 nucleophilic substitution pathway.
A porphyrin compound manganese(III) meso-5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-pyridyl)porphyrin, Mn(Py)4P
containing manganese(III) and 4-pyridyl ligands was synthesized. The UV-visible spectrophotometry
and cyclic voltammetry were used to investigate the axial ligand and the redox behaviours of Mn(Py)4P.
This study investigates the reduction properties of Mn(Py)4P using primary amine, imidazole and
2-methylimidazole as axial ligands. Reduction of Mn(Py)4P leads to a shift in absorption bands,
indicating the conversion from manganese(III) to manganese(II) porphyrin. The addition of primary
amine results in a square pyramidal structure for Mn(II) porphyrin, while imidazole or
2-methylimidazole leads to the formation of tetragonal complexes. These changes in geometry result in
a decrease in π-bonding. The observed spectral patterns support the involvement of axial ligands in the
5th and 6th positions of manganese(III) porphyrin. The cyclic voltammogram confirmed the alteration
in geometry, indicating changes in the redox properties of compound. As a whole, the results of this
study provide light on the ways where the behaviour of in which Mn(Py)4P can be altered by the
presence of other molecules.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
