The oxidation of alkenes, alkanes, and alcohols with H2O2 is catalyzed efficiently using an in situ prepared catalyst comprised of a MnII salt and pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (PCA) together with a ketone in a wide range of solvents. The mechanism by which these reactions proceed is elucidated, with a particular focus on the role played by each reaction component: i.e., ketone, PCA, MnII salt, solvent, etc. It is shown that the equilibrium between the ketone cocatalysts, in particular butanedione, and H2O2 is central to the catalytic activity observed and that a gem-hydroxyl-hydroperoxy species is responsible for generating the active form of the manganese catalyst. Furthermore, the oxidation of the ketone to a carboxylic acid is shown to antecede the onset of substrate conversion. Indeed, addition of acetic acid either prior to or after addition of H2O2 eliminates a lag period observed at low catalyst loading. Carboxylic acids are shown to affect both the activity of the catalyst and the formation of the gem-hydroxyl-hydroperoxy species. The molecular nature of the catalyst itself is explored through the effect of variation of MnII and PCA concentration, with the data indicating that a MnII:PCA ratio of 1:2 is necessary for activity. A remarkable feature of the catalytic system is that the apparent order in substrate is 0, indicating that the formation of highly reactive manganese species is rate limiting.

The manganese-containing catalytic system [MnIV,IV 2O3(tmtacn)2]2+ (1)/carboxylic acid (where tmtacn=N,N′,N′′-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane), initially identified for the cis-dihydroxylation and epoxidation of alkenes, is applied for a wide range of oxidative transformations, including oxidation of alkanes, alcohols and aldehydes employing H2O2 as oxidant. The substrate classes examined include primary and secondary aliphatic and aromatic alcohols, aldehydes, and alkenes. The emphasis is not primarily on identifying optimum conditions for each individual substrate, but understanding the various factors that affect the reactivity of the Mn-tmtacn catalytic system and to explore which functional groups are oxidised preferentially. This catalytic system, of which the reactivity can be tuned by variation of the carboxylato ligands of the in situ formed [MnIII,III 2(O)(RCO2)2(tmtacn)2]2+ dimers, employs H2O2 in a highly atom efficient manner. In addition, several substrates containing more than one oxidation sensitive group could be oxidised selectively, in certain cases even in the absence of protecting groups. Copyright
