The limited availability of catalytic reaction components may represent a major hurdle for the practical application of many catalytic procedures in organic synthesis. In this work, we demonstrate that the mixture of isomeric iron complexes [Fe(OTf)2(mix-BPBP)] (mix-1), composed of Λ-α-[Fe(OTf)2(S,S-BPBP)] (S,S-1), Δ-α- [Fe(OTf)2(R,R-BPBP)] (R,R-1) and Δ/Λ-β-[Fe(OTf) 2(R,S-BPBP)] (R,S-1), is a practical catalyst for the preparative oxidation of various aliphatic compounds including model hydrocarbons and optically pure natural products using hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant. Among the species present in mix-1, S,S-1 and R,R-1 are catalytically active, act independently and represent ca. 75% of mix-1. The remaining 25% of mix-1 is represented by mesomeric R,S-1 which nominally plays a spectator role in both C-H and C=C bond oxidation reactions. Overall, this mixture of iron complexes displays the same catalytic profile as its enantiopure components that have been previously used separately in sp3 C-H oxidations. In contrast to them, mix-1 is readily available on a multi-gram scale via two high yielding steps from crude dl/meso-2,2′-bipyrrolidine. Next to its use in C-H oxidation, mix-1 is active in chemospecific epoxidation reactions, which has allowed us to develop a practical catalytic protocol for the synthesis of epoxides.

After 1,5,9-cyclododecatriene is epoxidized with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a catalyst containing a tungsten compound, a quaternary onium salt and a mineral acid, to obtain a liquid reaction mixture containing the resultant 1,2-epoxy-5,9-cyclododecadiene, the catalyst, non-reacted hydrogen peroxide and non-reacted 1,5,9-cyclododecatriene and being phase-separated into an oil phase fraction and an aqueous phase fraction, at least the oil phase fraction of the liquid reaction mixture is treated with an aqueous alkali solution to deactivate and remove the non-reacted hydrogen peroxide and the catalyst contained in at least the oil phase fraction.
ISOMERIZATION OF TRANS-1,2-EPOXY-CIS,TRANS-5,9-CYCLODODECADIENE, TRANS-1,2-EPOXY-TRANS,TRANS-5,9-CYCLODODECADIENE, AND TRANS-EPOXYCYCLODODECANE TO THE CORRESPONDING KETONES BY THE ACTION OF LITHIUM AND MAGNESIUM IODIDES AND BROMIDES

The isomerization of trans-1,2-epoxy-cis,trans-5,9-cyclododecadiene, trans-1,2-epoxy-trans,trans-5,9-cyclododecadiene, and trans-epoxycyclododecane by the action of lithium and magnesium iodides and bromides leads to the formation of the corresponding 12-membered cyclic ketones and is not accompanied by ring contraction.
