Photocatalytic Oxygenation of Hydrocarbons with (Tetraarylporphyrinato)iron(III) Complexes and Molecular Oxygen. Comparison with Microsomal Cytochrome P-450 Mediated Oxygenation Reactions

Self‐Assembled Nanoreactors

“…For example, iron porphyrins connected to one 21,22 or more [21][22][23][24] CDs have been applied as oxidation catalysts with varying efficiencies and selectivities of substrates that are bound in the CD cavity. Different types of cavitycontaining catalysts are metal-ligand systems connected to cyclocholates, 25,26 cyclophanes, [27][28][29] calixarenes, 30 clips, [31][32][33][34] and other concave binding sites.…”

Functionalization of the benzobicyclo[3.2.1]octadiene skeleton via photocatalytic oxygenation of thiophene and furan derivatives: The impact of the type and position of the heteroatom

“…They can be utilized in autooxidation reactions, hydroxylations or direct oxygen transfer yielding epoxides. 10,11 Cationic manganese(III) porphyrins were applied as efficient catalysts for oxygenation of -pinene. Its selective epoxidation was achieved in aqueous systems at relatively low substrate:catalyst ratio (S/C=500), while in aprotic organic solvents, such as benzene or toluene, allylic hydroxylation products were formed.…”

Oxidation of benzoins to benzils in the presence of porphyrin sensitizers by air and sunlight or visible light

“…In the presence of ClFeTMP as a catalyst and oxygen, formation of intermediate 5 from photo-homolysis of 5 was formed through the reaction of Fe(II)TMP. The existance of Iron (II) comes from the homolysis of ClFeTMP [80,95,96,103]. Iron(IV)-oxo intermediates activate alcohols exclusively by H-atom abstraction from the R-CH group of alcohol and result in the formation of 7.…”

“…Stochiometric amounts of a strong oxidant are needed for the generation of metalloporphyrins [74]. The photosensitized production of singlet oxygen has significance in the photooxidation of organic compounds, DNA damage, and photodynamic therapy [75][76][77], such that a variety of these photosensitizers have been developed and extensively studied [78][79][80][81][82][83].…”
