Abstract
Tetra(4-pyridyl)porphyrinatomanganese(III),
[Mn”‘(TPyP)]+, has been covalently bonded
to the surface of a chlorinated crosslinked poly(siloxane) which contains the immobilized
chloropropyl group, -CH-CH&H&l.
The metalloporphyrin complex was found to react
with the immobilized ligand via a quaternization reaction of the 4-pyridlne N-atom. The
porphyrin binding involves a chemical process rather than physical adsorption. There is
evidence that two porphyrins species coexist, both bonded to the surface, one being
[Mn”‘(TPyP) ] + and the other (HsTPyP), both in the quatemary salt forms, when the
quatemization reaction is carried out at higher temperature (150 “C). At moderate reaction
temperatures (70-80 “C) the quatemization reaction resulted in only one species, supported
Wn”‘(TpYP) I+, as evident from electronic spectra of the solid. Also, visible absorption
spectra taken of the solution remainin g after the quatemixation reaction showed no
demetallated
porphyrin. Solid state electronic absorption, dispersive IR and FT-IR spectra
have been used for confirmation.
Introduction
Metalloporphyrins of the type shown below (Fig. 1) are reported to have
been immobilized on several insoluble supports. Zeolites have been employed
to support,
by coulombic
attraction, metalloporphyrins
such as
[ Mn”‘(TMPyP)]Cl,, using ion exchange [ 1,2 1. Metalloporphyrins immobilized
on Nafion polymer surfaces have also been reported [3]. Additionally, activated
carbon electrodes have been employed to support such porphyrins by physical
adsorption [ 4-7).
All these above-mentioned supported porphyrins were immobilized by
physical adsorption only. Recently, Marrese et al. [8] have anchored cobalt
tetrapyridylporphyrin to a polysiloxane coating of a platinum electrode by
covalent bonding (Scheme 1). In Scheme 1 the polysiloxane coating results
from the reaction of the -Si(OR), groups with the premodifled platinum
surface. A fraction of the Si(OR) groups react with surface R-OH groups

is that they have been used as electrocatalysts. The supporting solid, therefore,
is either the electrode itself, as the case with carbon electrode, or a surface
film that is a modifkation of the electrode, as the case with platinum electrodes.

catalysts’ in oxidation reactions. (The Mn-porphyrin is covalently anchored
as ,Mn***and then chemically reduced to its catalytically active form, Mn”.)
In our search for new supported porphyrins which are covalently bonded,
we are interested in the preparation of chemically regenerated supported
catalysts from molecular starting compounds, i.e. to prepare supported
catalysts with the porphyrin bound to the solid surface by genuine covalent
chemical bonds. In this article we describe our results using a chlorinated
crosslinked poly(siloxane) support, prepared as shown in Scheme 2, which
is known to have preferred mechanical properties [ 1 l-l 3 1.The [ Mnm(TPyP) It

as Nujol mulls. Electronic absorption spectra of the supported porphyrin
were recorded on Varian Gary 2300 and/or Hitachi 110 spectrophotometers,
using thin solid layers on quartz cell surfaces. Baseline spectra were obtained
with thin layers of chlorinated poly(siloxane) solid. FT-IR spectra (KBr disks)
were measured on a Mattson Polaris FI’-IR spectrophotometer, with an
H&Cd, _,Te(MCT) detector. Scanning (10 shuttles/block, 50 scans/block)

[Mn’“(TPyP)] + was covalently bonded to the poly(siloxane) surface by
a quaternization reaction similar to that described for the homogeneous
solution reactions of CH3-I with [ Mnm(TPyP)] + [ 141. Since alkylchlorides
undergo the quaternization reaction more slowly than alkyliodides [ 16, 171,
more vigorous conditions have been employed here. Chlorinated poly(siloxane)
(4 g) was stirred with [Mnm(TPyP)]+ (0.03 g, 4.17~ 10m2 mmol) in DMF
(20 ml) at 70 “C for 72 h. [Mnm(TPyP)]+(SO&n is highly soluble in DMF.
The resulting red-brown solid was isolated, washed with DMF ten times and
with CH2C12five times. It was then dried at room temperature under reduced
pressure overnight. Attempts were also made to prepare supported
[Mn’ll(TPyP)] + under more vigorous conditions. The quaternization reaction
was conducted under refluxing DMF (150 “C) for 72 h, using otherwise
similar reaction conditions.

Results and discussion
Metalloporphyrins of the type M(TPyP) are known to undergo the
quaternization reaction (eqn. 1) [ 14-171 as free solution molecules, resulting
in catonic solution species. The rate of the reaction is affected by a number
of factors, such as the nature of substituents on the pyridine ring, the nature
of the alkyl group (R) in R-X, the nature of X and solvent polarity. In case
of [ Mn”*(TPyP)] + , the rate is expected to decrease in the order X = I > Br > Cl.
In this work a chlorinated poly(siloxane) surface is used in place of
R-X. The reaction, as expected, was found to be slow. A slow reaction is
expected also due probably to steric factors at the surface. To speed up
the reaction, attempts were made to convert the chlorinated poly(siloxane)
into the iodized form, following the Finkelstein reaction [22, 231. The
chlorinated poly(siloxane) surface (6.8 g) was stirred with dry KI (15 g) in
dry acetone (100 ml) for 30 min. The mixture was then refluxed ( N 56 “C)
for 3 h. After cooling the mixture was further stirred for 60 min. The solid
was then isolated, filtered and washed several times with acetone to remove
137
excess KI, and with water to remove any possibly formed KCl. After that,
the solid was further washed with acetone and dried overnight at 80 “C.
However, these attempts to iodize the chlorinated surface were unsuccessful.
IR spectra taken for the treated surface did not show the v(C-I) characteristic
band in the region 1190-l 150 cm-’ [24]. More vigorous reaction conditions
using overnight refluxing also did not work. The IR spectra of the treated
solid matched only those of the original chlorinated polysiloxane. The lack
of iodization was also confirmed by another method. The KI-treated surface
was allowed to react with [Mnm(TPyP)] + via a quaternization reaction as
described in the experimental section. Such reactions are accompanied by
halide ion (X-) formation, which in this case could be either Cl- (indicative
of chloropoly(siloxane)) or I- (indicative of iodopoly(siloxane)). The porphyrinated surface was then treated as an ion-exchange chromatography
resin, through which NaNOa(aq) solution was passed. The eluate, expected
to contain X- ions, was actually positive for Cl- and negative for I- (addition
of AgNO,(aq)). This indicates that the K&treated surface is in fact still in
the chloride form.
Due to unsuccessful attempts to prepare the iodized polysiloxane surface,
the chlorinated poly(siloxane) surfaces were used to support [Mn?J’PyP)] + .
DMF was used because polar solvents are known to increase the quaternization
reaction rate [ 161. Preliminary experiments showed that refluxing conditions
( N 150 “C) are not advisable, since demetallization of the porphyrin resulted.
Therefore, the quaternization reaction was carried out at 70 “C.
The dry yellow/brownish solid (red/brown when wet), which resulted
from quaternization was analyzed further to verify if the complex is bonded
to the support by a covalent chemical bond. The supported catalyst was
treated as a resin for ion exchange chromatography, i.e. aqueous NaNOa
was passed through the column, and the column was further eluted with
water. The eluate was then treated with aqueous AgNO,. A white precipitate
formed, indicating the presence of Cl- in the quaternized solid. This indicates
that the quaternization reaction took place. Blank runs were conducted for
further confirmation. When the supported complex was replaced by other
materials such as silica surface or a chlorinated poly(siloxane) (unreacted),
no AgCl precipitate formed on treatment with aqueous AgNO,. Addition of
aqueous AgNOB to aqueous properly diluted solutions of [Mnm(lPyP)]+(SO&n used in the quaternization also did not yield a white precipitate.
Blank experiments of aqueous NaNOs with aqueous AgNOa also showed no
white precipitate, indicating that the original NaNOS solution is free of Clion contamination. Thus the Cl- ion did not originate from any possible
traces of PhzSnClz which may be remaining on the solid surface. This was

also shown by experiment. From these observations, it can be concluded
that the quaternization reaction took place, and that the reaction product
is the only source of Cl- ions.
Solid state electronic absorption spectra of the Soret region were recorded
for the supported [Mn*(TPyP)] + (Table 1). The spectra were taken of the
solid which was first powdered and suspended in acetone. A clean quartz
cell surface was painted with the solid-acetone suspension. The acetone was
then evaporated, leaving a thin uniform layer of the supported complex on
the cuvette surface. The spectra were recorded against a reference of
chlorinated poly(siloxane). In the case of supported complex prepared in
refluxing DMF (150 “C), two Soret bands appeared in the spectrum at 420
and 460 nm. This indicates that two supported species coexist at the surface.
The 460 run band is attributed to the presence of supported [Mn?J’PyP)] +
in its quaternary ionic form (Scheme 2), because the 460 nm band is close
to the 463 nm Soret band associated with [Mnm(TMPyP)]C1, in water [14,
251. The other band at 420 nm is attributed to the presence of supported
(HaTPyP) porphin in its quaternary ionic form, free from a central Mn atom,
because this band is close to the 422 nm Soret band reported for aqueous
[HBTMPyP]Cl~ [ 261. This is indicative of the demetallation process taking
place under refluxing conditions. Electronic absorption spectra of an aliquot
of the remixing DMF solution also showed the existence of demetallated
[H,TPyP] (417 run, l=4.25 X lo5 M-’ cm-‘) as a major component, whereas
the [M#*(TPyP)]+ (460 run, ~=8.5X lo4 M-’ cm-‘) is a minor component.
However, in the case of the supported complex prepared in DMF at 70 “C,
the solid state spectra showed only the one 460 nm Soret band, indicative
of the presence of only the supported [Mnm(TPyP)] + species. The absence
of bands in the 417420 nm region indicates that there is no demetallated
porphin anchored. Furthermore, electronic absorption spectra taken of the
DMF solution following the quaternization reaction showed no bands characteristic of demetallated porphin, [H,TPyP]. It is this batch of supported
[Mn’“(TPyP)] + that is of interest as a catalyst, work to be reported in an
ensuing paper [ 181. Analysis of the extent of anchoring of [Mnm(TPyP)] +
was undertaken spectrophotometrically.
The amount of supported
[Mn”‘(TPyP)] + was calculated by subtracting the amount of [Mnm(TPyP)] +
remaining in solution (after quaternization) from the original amount used
at the start of the quaternization. The weight percent of [Mnm(TPyP)](S04)In of the total weight of the final solid was 0.65%. The amount of
unreacted [~n”*(TPyP)] * remaining in solution after quatemization was
measured spectrophotochemically, using ~=8.5X lo4 M-’ cm-’ (464 run)
for [Mn”‘(TPyP)] + [ 141. Similar methods of calculating the uptake of binding
species by solid surfaces are known [ 11 I. Although the percent
[Mn(TPyP)](SO,),,
seems to be relatively low, high catalyst turnovers (up
to 14 x 103) have been observed for this supported complex in olefin oxidations
]181.
The electronic absorption spectra of the Soret region of the anchored
porphyrin showed no indication of the presence of any unreacted
139

[Mn”‘(TPyP)]+ (464 run) or (HaTPyP)) (420 run) adsorbed on the surface.
Blank experiments were carried out as follows to confirm this. [Mnm(TPyP)] +
was stirred with a nonhalogenated silica surface, under conditions identical
to those used for supporting the complex on the chlorinated surfaces. After
washing several times, the surfaces were found to be porphyrin-free when
tested by the sensitive electronic absorption spectra. Other blank experiments
were done using chlorinated poly(siloxane) surfaces. The surface was stirred
with [Mn”(TPyP)] + for 60 min at room temperature, then isolated, washed
with DMF, then with water, DMF and CHaCla. Though the resulting solid
showed some very faint yellow color, the electronic absorption spectra showed
no bands characteristic of porphyrins.
Solid state IR spectra were also obtained of the supported [Mnm(TPyP)] +
complex. Nujol mull and KBr pellet techniques were employed. The grating
dispersive IR(D-IR) spectra, however, were inconclusive, presumably due to
the low porphyrin complex concentration in the solid. Solid state FT-IR
spectra were then recorded for KBr pellets of the supported [M@(TPyP)] +
(4 mg supported complex and 300 mg KBr). The spectra were recorded
against a blank pellet of KBr (300 mg) with poly(siloxane) (4 mg). The
FI’-IR spectrum (500 scan average) was compared to other D-IR spectra
of molecular [ Mn”‘(TPyP)]
zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcbaZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCB
+, [H,TPyP] and poly(siloxane), all taken in KBr
pellets. Not only did the supported [Mnm(TPyP)]+ FI’-IR spectrum resemble
the D-IR spectrum of [Mnm(TPyP)]+ more than the spectrum of [HaTPyP],
but some bands that appeared exclusively in the [HaTPyP] D-IR spectrum
(e.g. 1470 cm-‘), and not in the spectrum of [Mn(TPyP)]+, did not appear
in the supported complex Fl’-IR spectrum. Furthermore, the band (1380
cm-‘) that appeared exclusively in the [Mn(TPyP)]+ IR spectrum, but not
in [HaTPyP], appeared in the supported complex FI’-IR spectrum. Therefore,
it can be concluded again that the supported complex is in the [Mn’“(TPyP)] +
form and not in the demetallated form, [H,TPyP].
For further confirmation, the supported complex FI’-IR spectrum was
compared to a FYI’-IR spectrum taken for a standard mixture of molecular
[Mnm(TPyP)]+ (0.25 mg) and chloropoly(siloxane) (4 mg) in a KBr (300
mg) pellet. The two Mn”‘(porphyrin) spectra matched each other well,
indicating that the supported complex is indeed [ Mnm(TPyP) ] + . By comparing
the two FI’-IR spectra, it was also possible to determine the concentration
of [Mn”‘(TPyP)] + within the total solid. For quantitative purposes, the band
at 1598 cm-‘, which appeared in both of these FI’-IR spectra, was used.
This band resembles the IR- 1600 cm-’ bands of I@=@) or v(C-N) for
other porphyrin pyrrole ring modes [29]. The 1598 cm-’ band was chosen
141
for quantitative analysis, because it appeared in the region with virtually no
interference from the poly(siloxane). This was evident from KE3rpellet D-IR
spectra of molecular [Mn’“(TPyP)] +, [H,TPyP ] and poly(siloxane) species.
The amount of [Mn”‘(TPyP)](S04)In was 0.50 wt.%. The concentration values
measured by ET-IR spectra are thus close to those measured from electronic
absorption spectra as shown above. zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcbaZYXWVUTSRQPON
