Thirteen new manganese porphyrins and two porphodimethenes bearing one to three different substituents at the meso positions in a variety of architectures have been synthesized. The substituents employed generally are (i) electron-withdrawing to time the reduction potential to the desirable range (near +0.3 V vs NHE), and/or (ii) lipophilic to target the interior of lipid bilayer membranes and/or the blood-brain barrier. The influence of the substituents on the Mn-II /Mn-II reduction potentials has been characterized. and the superoxide disimutase activity of the compounds has been examined. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
