The dinuclear manganese complex [LMn(IV)(O)3Mn(IV)L](PF6)2, where L is 1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane. catalyses the oxygenation of alkane by peroxyacetic acid or by H2O2 in the presence of acetic acid to give alkanols, alkanones and alkyl hydroperoxides. The reactions can give large turnovers (up to 1350 after 1 h at 20°C) and can occur with a high degree of retention of stereochemistry at tertiary carbon atoms.

Wild-type P450-BM3 is able to catalyze in a highly regio- and diastereoselective manner the oxidative hydroxylation of non-activated disubstituted cyclohexane derivatives lacking any functional groups, including cis- and trans-1,2-dimethylcyclohexane, cis- and trans-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane, and trans-1,4-methylisopropylcyclohexane. In all cases except chiral trans-1,2-dimethylcyclohexane as substrate, the single hydroxylation event at a methylene group induces desymmetrization with simultaneous creation of three centers of chirality. Certain mutants increase selectivity, setting the stage for future directed evolution work.

In this work, we report the discovery of a carboxyl-containing iron catalyst 1 (FeII-DCBPY, DCBPY = 2,2′-bipyridine-4,4′- dicarboxylic acid), which could activate the C-H bonds of cycloalkanes with high secondary (2°) C-H bond selectivity. A turnover number (TN) of 11.8 and a 30% yield (based on the H2O2 oxidant) were achieved during the catalytic oxidation of cyclohexane by 1 under irradiation with visible light. For the transformation of cycloalkanes and bicyclic decalins with both 2° and tertiary (3°) C-H bonds, 1 always preferred to oxidise the 2° C-H bonds to the corresponding ketone and alcohol products; the 2°/3° ratio ranged between 78/22 and >99/1 across 7 examples. 18O isotope labelling experiments, ESR experiments, a PPh3 method and the catalase method were used to characterize the reaction process during the oxidation. The success of 1 showed that, in addition to using a bulky catalyst, high 2° C-H bond selectivity could also be achieved using a less bulky molecular iron complex as the catalyst.
