Abstract

Seven A3- and trans-A2B manganese(III) corroles (1–7-Mn) differing widely in their electronic and steric features were synthesized and transformed to their corresponding [Formula: see text]-brominated manganese(III) corroles derivatives (1a–7a-Mn). Their corresponding (oxo)manganese(V) corroles 1–7-Mn(oxo) and 1a–7a-Mn(oxo) were further prepapred by treating with iodosylbenzene (PhIO). The reactivity for the oxygen atom transfer from 1–7-Mn(oxo) to styrene followed the order of 1-Mn(oxo) > 2-Mn(oxo) > 7-Mn(oxo) > 4-Mn(oxo) > 3-Mn(oxo) > 6-Mn(oxo) [Formula: see text]5-Mn(oxo). The same pattern was observed for their [Formula: see text]-brominated analogs 1a–7a-Mn(oxo), albeit their reactivity was remarkably higher. The steric protection of [Formula: see text] moiety by ortho–ortho′-dibromophenyl substituents was found to enhance the stability of (oxo)manganese(V) corroles significantly.
