Abstract
Reaction of silica, montmorillonite and polystyrene bearing amino functions with several polyhalogenated metalloporphyrins gave an easy one-step access to new supported catalysts, owing to a selective nucleophilic substitution of the para-halogen atoms of the porphyrin meso-aryl groups by the polymer amine function; these catalysts were very active for cyclooctene epoxidation and alkane hydroxylation by PhlO.
