The highly bulky bis-pocket corrole 5,10,15-tris(2,4,6-triphenylphenyl)corrole (H(3)TTPPC) has been synthesized. Resonance Raman spectroscopy revealed a triply bonded Mn[triple bond]O moiety in its manganese(V)-oxo complex. Direct oxygen atom transfer from (TTPPC)Mn[triple bond]O to styrene was confirmed by an (18)O-labeling experiment. The (TTPPC)Mn(III) complex also exhibits significant shape selectivity in the catalytic epoxidation of nonconjugated dienes.

High-valent iron-nitrido species are nitrogen analogues of iron-oxo species which are versatile reagents for C-H oxidation. Nonetheless, C-H activation by iron-nitrido species has been scarcely explored, as this is often hampered by their instability and short lifetime in solutions. Herein, the hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reactivity of an Fe porphyrin nitrido species (2 c) toward C-H substrates was studied in solutions at room temperature, which was achieved by nanosecond laser flash photolysis (LFP) of its Fe -azido precursor (1 c) supported by a bulky bis-pocket porphyrin ligand.

A one-pot synthesis of bulky bis-pocket A₃B-type -cyano porphyrin, 5-cyano-10,15,20-tris(2,4,6-triphenylphenyl)porphyrin, has been accomplished via trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) catalyzed condensation of pyrrole and 2,4,6-triphenylbenzaldehyde in an acceptable yield of about 4%. DDQ served as oxidant and the cyanating agent.
