Two isostructural metalloporphyrin framework solids have been synthesized. Both frameworks contains manganese(III) metal complexes of trans-dicarboxylateporphyrins whose peripheralcarboxylates coordinate the edges of tetrahedral Zn4O[Formula: see text] clusters; the two metalloporphyrins explored are Mn(III) and Co(II). The cubic interpenetrated frameworks have 72% free volume and 4 × 7 Å averaged size pores. The evacuated frameworks are robust and retain a structure open to the sorption of substrates with medium polarity. The manganese porphyrin framework catalyzes the hydroxylation of cyclic and linear alkanes with iodosylbenzene as oxidant in a size- and polarity-selective manner. In addition, the catalysis was found to occur within the pores, making this a rare case of porphyrin framework solid with interior catalysis.

Magnesium hemithioacetates were used as model cysteine compounds to mimic natural hemithioacetals, and their biomimetic oxidation reactions using a model NAD+ compounds were investigated.

Efficient oxidation of Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridines with sodium periodate catalyzed by a polystyrene-bound manganese(III) porphyrin is reported. This catalyst shows high activity in the oxidation of various 1,4-dihydropyridines at room temperature. This heterogeneous catalyst can be reused five times without significant loss of its activity.Key words: biomimetic oxidation, supported metalloporphyrin, periodate, 1,4-dihydropyridine.

Rare-earth phosphates are of particular interest because of their catalytic properties associated with the hydrolysis of many aromatic chlorides in the petroleum industry. Lanthanum phosphates (LaPO4) which have been doped with small amounts of copper have shown increased catalytic activity (1). However the physical and chemical characteristics of the samples leading to good catalytic activity are not known.Many catalysts are amorphous and thus do not easily lend themselves to methods of investigation which would include electron microscopy. However, the LaPO4, crystals are quite suitable samples for high resolution techniques.The samples used were obtained from William L. Kehl of Gulf Research and Development Company. The electron microscopy was carried out on a JEOL JEM-100B which had been modified for high resolution microscopy (2). Standard high resolution techniques were employed. Three different sample types were observed: 669A-1-5-7 (poor catalyst), H-L-2 (good catalyst) and 27-011 (good catalyst).

μ-(η5 : η5-Fulvalene)-di-μ-hydrido-bis(η5-cyclopentadienyltitanium) and μ-(η5 : η5-fulvalene)-μ-chloro-μ-hydrido-bis(cyclopentadienyltitanium) form a thermally stable complex which catalyzes the intermolecular hydrogen transfer in unsaturated hydrocarbons, in addition to isomerizations and cyclizations. Cyclic hydrocarbons disproportionate under catalysis to saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons, while linear olefins yield predominantly linear alkanes and high molecular weight tar. The catalyst enables the hydrocarbon system to approach the thermodynamic equilibrium through a series of substitution reactions between alkyl- and allyltitanocene-like species and olefins and dienes. The catalytic complex was characterized by UV and ESR spectra. About one half of overall titanium content could be converted to mononuclear η3-allyltitanocene-like species, stable up to 400 °C. This exceptional thermal stability is ascribed to a firmly bound allyl containing ligand.
