Photocatalytic oxidation of stilbene by self-assembled stacks of manganese porphyrins

Self-assembled stacks of trimeric manganese porphyrins exhibit high activity in the photocatalytic epoxidation of stilbene using O2 as the oxidant. The supramolecular structure of the catalyst leads to increased stability of the system and enhances the stereoselectivity of the reaction.
