State of the art in the development of biomimetic oxidation catalysts

TL;DR: The first biomimetic oxidations were achieved using the special oxygen donor iodosylbenzene, but cheaper and generally available oxidants such as sodium hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide are presently used as the oxidants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dioxygen-activating bio-inorganic model complexes

TL;DR: The study of model compounds continues to significantly contribute to the understanding of the role of transition metals at the active sites of enzymes, as dioxygen is not only manipulated in nature but also has industrial significance in metal-catalyzed oxidations of organics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomimetical catalytic activity of iron(III) porphyrins encapsulated in the zeolite X

TL;DR: In this article, the catalysts were obtained through the Zeolite synthesis method, where NaX zeolite was synthesised around one of the cationic FePs: iron(III) 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphyrin (FeP1) or iron( III) 5-mono(2,6-dichloro-phenyl)10, 15,20tris( 4-Nmethylparmphyryn)porphyrin (

Interaction of novel cationic meso-tetraphenylporphyrins in the ground and excited states with DNA and nucleotides

TL;DR: In this article, the synthesis and aggregation properties of novel cationic meso-tetraphenylporphyrins substituted in the para-positions with -CH2(pyridinio)+ (P11), CH2N+(n-butyl)3 (P33, CH2P+(phenyl) 3 (P44), CH 2S+(CH3)2 (P55) and CH2SC(NH2)2+ (P66) groups are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alkene epoxidation catalysed by iron(III) and manganese(III) tetraarylporphyrins coordinatively bound to polymer and silica supports

TL;DR: The tetraaryl metalloporphyrin catalysts have been used as catalysts for the oxidation of cyclohexene and cyclooctene by iodosylbenzene as discussed by the authors.
