Abstract
Three types of polymer-metalloporphyrin complexes, i. e., 1) metal complexes coordinately bound to polymer ligands, 2) metal complexes covalently bound to polymer matrices, and 3) metal complexes immobilized into ABA-type block-copolymers, were synthsized. The first one was not so successful due to complex formation and complex dissociation equilibria. The latter two yielded stable polymer-metal complexes, and especially the last one could be applied to aqueous systems as oxygen-carrying materials.
