A new binuclear oxovanadium(v) complex [{VO(OEt)(EtOH)}2L] (1) where H4L is bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)terephthalohydrazide has been synthesized and fully characterized. The combination of 1 with pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (PCA; a cocatalyst) affords a catalytic system for the efficient oxidation of saturated hydrocarbons, RH, with hydrogen peroxide and air in acetonitrile solution at 50°C to produce alkyl hydroperoxides, ROOH, as the main primary products. Very high turnover numbers (TONs) have been attained in this reaction: for example, after 2220 min, TON = 44 000 and initial TOF (turnover frequency) = 3300 h-1 per molecule of complex 1. The estimated activation energy of the cyclohexane oxygenation in the presence of 1/PCA is Ea = 16 ± 2 kcal mol-1. This value is identical to that obtained for the cyclohexane oxidation with H 2O2 catalyzed by the (n-Bu4N)[VO 3]/PCA combination (17 ± 2 kcal mol-1). The dependences of initial oxidation rates W0 on the initial concentrations of all components of the reaction mixture have been determined. Based on these kinetic data and on the regio- and bond-selectivity parameters measured in the oxidation of linear and branched alkanes a mechanism of the oxidation has been proposed which includes the generation of hydroxyl radicals in the crucial stage.

Higher alkanes (cyclohexane, n-pentane, n-heptane, methylbutane, 2- and 3-methylpentanes, 3-methylhexane, cis- and trans-decalins) are oxidized at 20 °C by H2O2 in air in acetonitrile (or nitromethane) solution in the presence of the manganese(IV) salt [L2Mn2O3](PF6)2 (L = 1,4,7-trimethyl- 1,4-7-triazacyclononane) as the catalyst. An obligatory component of the reaction mixture is acetic acid. Turnover numbers attain 3300 after 2 h, the yield of oxygenated products is 46% based on the alkane. The oxidation affords initially the corresponding alkyl hydroperoxide as the predominant product, however later these compounds decompose to produce the corresponding ketones and alcohols. Regio- and bond selectivities of the reaction are high: C(1): C(2): C(3): C(4) ? 1: 40: 35: 35 and 1°: 2°: 3°is 1: (15-40): (180-300). The reaction with both isomers of decalin gives (after treatment with PPh3) alcohols hydroxylated in the tertiary positions with the cis/trans ratio of ~2 in the case of cis-decalin, and of ~30 in the case of trans-decalin (i.e. in the latter case the reaction is stereospecific). Light alkanes (methane, ethane, propane, normal butane and isobutane) can be also easily oxidized by the same reagent in acetonitrile solution, the conditions being very mild: low pressure (1-7 bar of the alkane) and low temperature (- 22 to +27°C). Catalyst turnover numbers attain 3100, the yield of oxygenated products is 22% based on the alkane. The yields of oxygenates are higher at low temperatures. The ratio of products formed (hydroperoxide: ketone: alcohol) depends very strongly on the conditions of the reaction and especially on the catalyst concentration (at higher catalyst concentration the ketone is predominantly produced).

Absolute rate constants (k) for reduction of substituted methylperoxyl radicals by ascorbate ions and by TMPD (N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine) in aqueous solutions have been determined by pulse radiolysis.The rate constants vary from 1E6 to 1E9 M-1 s-1, increasing as the electron-withdraving capacity of the substituent on the peroxyl group increases.Linear correlations are observed between log k and the Taft substituents ?* for a wide variety of substituents, but not all substituents fit the same line.In the case of ascorbate as reductant, the points for peroxyl radicals that contain halogens on the α-carbon lie on a different line (ρ*=0.41) than that for the other substituents (ρ*=1.25).In the case of TMPD there are alsotwo families of peroxyl radicals: Those comprimising the electron-donating groups Me through t-Bu (ρ=5.6) and those containing electron-withdrawing substituents (ρ*=0.64).
