Quantitative correlations relating the interaction of Zn(II)-tetraphenylporphine and horseradish peroxidase with amines

Reactions of nucleophilic substitution and enzymatic processes involving metalloporphirins (MP) are considered in terms of coordination of zinc(II)tetraphenylporphine (Zn-TPhP) with corresponding ligands/nucleophiles/substrates/bases. Linear correlations are performed between kinetic parameters of the Zn-TPhP coordination processes in chloroform (stability constants) and reactions of nucleophilic substitution both in aqueous and organic solvents involving pyridines, pyridine N-oxides, anilines, primary amines, as well as in reactions of oxidation of anilines with horseradish peroxidase in aqueous media (rate constants). Thermodynamic parameters of the complex formation and nucleophilic substitution linearly correlate with each other in the case of pyridines, anilines, and primary amines.
