Rh(ttp)Cl (1a) (ttp = 5,10,15,20-tetrakistolylporphyrinato dianion) was found to react with methanol at a high temperature of 150 °C in the presence of inorganic bases to give a high yield of Rh(ttp)CH3 (2a), up to 87%. Rh(ttp)H (1d) is suggested to be the key intermediate for the carbon−oxygen bond cleavage.
                                    发现Rh(ttp)Cl(1a)(ttp = 5,10,15,20-四Kistolylporphyrinato二价阴离子)在
无机碱存在下于150°C的高温下与
甲醇反应,从而获得高产率的Rh( ttp)CH 3(2a),高达87%。Rh(ttp)H(1d)被认为是碳-氧键裂解的关键中间体。
