Abstract
A compound I analog is generated from triflato tetrakis (2,6-dichloro- phenyl)porphinatoiron(III) and used to oxidize benzanthracene and pyrene. Benzanthracene is shown to be oxidized primarily via monooxygen transfer from the cpd I complex, while in the case of pyrene, a definitive mechanism was not established, but radical pathways involving dioxygen and water were indicated.
