Currents for electrochemical reductions of manganese (III) porphyrins in oxygenated, aprotic media correspond to passage of between one and two electrons per porphyrin, depending on the experimental time scale, the axial base present, andthe particular porphyrin. The two-electron process corresponds to an “ECE” reaction sequence involving formation and subsequent reduction of an intermediate Mn (II)-dioxygen adduct. The formal potential of the second electron step is shown to be ca.-0.17 V vs. NaSCE for Mn (TPP) benzoate. Passage of the second electron is suppressedby strong axial bases andby competitive axial binding but is promoted by use of an axial anion that gives the most negative potential for passage of the first electron, Mn (TPP) benzoate being a specific example. The overall rate constant for the intermediate chemical step is estimated. In the presence of the added electrophile benzoic anhydride, and on a slower time scale, reduction by more than two electrons occurs by a process postulated to involve heterolysis of the 0-0 bond by the electrophile, producing an even more easily reduced, high-valent manganese-oxo porphyrin. The rate of electrophile attack is slower thanthat for dioxygen binding.
