Title: Metal complexes of substituted Gable porphyrins as oxidation catalysts

Patent ·
OSTI ID:170443

Transition metal complexes of Gable porphyrins are disclosed having two porphyrin rings connected through a linking group, and having on the porphyrin rings electron-withdrawing groups, such as halogen, nitro or cyano. These complexes are useful as catalysts for the oxidation of organic compounds, e.g. alkanes.
