This review is devoted to the recent advances in the preparation of immobilised metalloporphyrins and their use as heterogeneous catalysts for alkene epoxidation. The wide range of supports, nature of attachments, and metalloporphyrins that have been reported is detailed and a comparison is made between the activities of the resulting catalysts in the epoxidation of different alkenes. The important issue of recyclability of the metalloporphyrins is also covered.
