Oxidative N-dealkylation of N,N-dimethylbenzylamines by metalloporphyrin-catalysed model systems for cytochrome P450 mono-oxygenases
Abstract
Iodosylbenzene, catalysed by tetraphenylporphyrinato-iron(III) or-manganese(III) chloride, oxidises tertiary amines by an initial one-electron transfer process whereas with t-butyl hydroperoxide with these catalysts the oxidation is initiated by hydrogen atom abstraction.
