A manganese porphyrin–α-cyclodextrin conjugate was designed as an artificial clamp-like enzyme to catalyze the epoxidation of cis-polybutadiene with trans-epoxide preference.

The epoxidation of cis-stilbene by n-Bu4NHSO5 was studied in the presence of two different manganese porphyrin complexes, [MnTPFPP(Cl) and MnTPP(Cl)], and various n-Bu4NX (X = OAc, F, Cl, Br, OCN, NO3, BF4). In general direct correlation was found between stereoselectivity of the epoxidation reaction and the nucleophilic properties of these anionic co-catalysts. Also epoxidation of naphthalene was carried out in high yield and good selectivity by n-Bu4NHSO5 in the presence of MnTPFPP(Cl) in association with n-Bu4NOAc or n-Bu4NF co-catalysts.

The catalytic epoxidation of cis-polybutadiene was studied in two-phase systems, CH 2 CI 2/ H 2 O and PhIO (solid)/ CH 2 Cl 2, using chlorochromium(III), chloromanganese(III) and chloroiron(III) tetraphenylporphyrin complexes as catalysts. Comparison of the catalytic activity of these three catalysts showed that the manganese porphyrin is the most suitable catalyst for this reaction. The results are based on reaction product ratios as determined by 1 H NMR . UV-Visible spectroscopy allowed monitoring of the metalloporphyrin evolution during the catalytic reaction.

Developing highly efficient artificial enzymes that directly employ O<sub>2</sub> as terminal oxidant has long been pursued but has rarely achieved yet. We report Fe-N-C has unusual enzyme-like activity in both dehydrogenation and monoxygenation of organic substrates with ~100% selectivity by direct using O<sub>2</sub>.
