μ-Oxo-bis[(octacosafluoro-meso-tetraphenylporphyrinato)iron(iii)] – synthesis, crystal structure, and catalytic activity in oxidation reactions

Abstract

We describe the synthesis and crystal structure of a novel perfluorinated μ-oxo-bis[(porphyrinato)iron(iii)] complex enabling useful applications in catalytic C–H activations including asymmetric biaryl coupling and Wacker-type oxidation of olefins.
