Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>Mn^III is a powerful active site for catalytic oxidation of alkyl aromatics, but it can be only stabilized by macrocyclic chelating ligands such porphyrinates. Herein, by using benzobistriazolate as a rigid bridging ligand, a porous Mn^II azolate framework with a nitrogen‐rich coordinated environment similar to that of metalloporphyrins was synthesized, in which the Mn^II ions can be post‐oxidized to Mn^III to achieve drastic increase of catalytic (aerobic) oxidation performance.</p> </abstract>
