Abstract
Encapsulation of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) in a porphyrinatomanganese(III)-based cubic cage allowed the fast reduction of manganese(III) porphyrin in the presence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). This supramolecular system was capable of efficiently activating dioxygen and catalyzing the oxidation of benzyl alcohol. Control experiments suggested that the close proximity between FMN and manganese(III) porphyrins forced by the host-guest interaction might benefit the electron-transfer process from the FMN cofactor to the metal centers.
