Two complexes with isoindole-core ligands of general formula [M{C6H4C(NH2)NC(ONCMe2)2}2](NO3)2 (M = Co for 1 and M = Ni for 2) were studied as catalysts for the mild stereoselective alkane oxidation with m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) as an oxidant and cis-1,2-dimethylcyclohexane (cis-1,2-DMCH) as a main model substrate. Complex 1 disclosed a pronounced activity, with high retention of stereoconfiguration of substrates (>98% for cis-1,2-DMCH) and highest cis/trans ratio of tertiary alcohols (products) of 56, under mild conditions. The best achieved yields of tertiary cis-alcohols were of 13.7 and 50.5%, based on the substrate (cis-1,2-DMCH) and the oxidant (m-CPBA) respectively. Kinetic experiments, high bond and stereoselectivity parameters, kinetic isotope effect of 7.2(2) in the oxidation of cyclohexane, and incorporation of 18O from H218O support the involvement of CoIVO high-valent metal-oxo intermediates as main C-H attacking species.

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.
