Supported tetra(-4-pyridyl)porphyrinato-manganese(III) [MnIII(TPyP)]+ and -tin(IV) [SnIV(TPyP)]2+ have been prepared. The solid support was iodonated poly(siloxane) surface prepared by condensation reactions of (EtO)4Si with (MeO)3Si(CH2)3I. The supported metalloporphyrins were employed as catalysts for the oxidation reactions of 1-octene and of cyclohexene. NaBH4 was used to reduce [MnIII(TPyP)]+ and [SnIV(TPyP)]2+ back to their catalytically active MnII and SnII forms, respectively. Contrary to their homogeneous counterparts, both of the supported metalloporphyrins catalysed the cyclohexene oxidation reaction to yield only 2-cyclohexen-1-one with no other products over a reaction time of 10 h. In addition to cyclohexene oxidation, the supported [MnIII(TPyP)]+ catalysed 1-octene oxidation as well, whereas the supported [SnIV(TPyP)]2+ was inactive for the oxidation of 1-octene.

The interfacial kinetics of charge transfer at n-GaAs/liquid junctions were controlled by anchoring positively charged species, such as tetra(-4-pyridyl)porphyrinatomanganese(III), with the semiconductor surface. Unlike earlier adsorption techniques, the charges have been chemically anchored to the semiconductor surface, in this work, via a ligand. The number of charges per site (attached molecule) ranged from +1 to +5. The positive charges shifted the band-edges towards more positive potential values. The degree of shift increased with surface charge density. In the dark, the flat band potential (measured by Mott–Schottky technique) and the onset potential were shifted by up to 300 mV depending on surface charge density. Relatively less of a shift was observed during illumination of the system. Other surface characteristics, such as conversion efficiency and photoluminescence intensity, have been enhanced. The basis for these shifts and their implications with respect to control of interfacial processes are discussed.
