A Fe(III)-promoted highly selective photo-oxidation of benzylic C–H bond delivering relative carbonyl products is reported. By altering the concentration of ferric salt, methylarenes can be selectively oxidized under UV irradiation to furnish aromatic aldehydes or acids, respectively. By this protocol, the oxidation of ethylarenes provides the corresponding acetophenones. The reaction is inferred to involve divergent pathways in different concentrations of catalyst for the alternative selectivity between aldehydes and aicds. The reusable catalyst, high conversion and selectivity make this oxidation a green and economic protocol for the synthesis of aromatic carbonyl compounds.

We report a visible-light-mediated benzylic C-H oxygenation reaction. The reaction is initiated by solar light or the blue LED activation of 9,10-dibromoanthracene in a reaction with oxygen and takes place at ambient temperature and air pressure. Secondary benzylic positions are oxygenated to ketones, while tertiary benzylic carbons are oxygenated to give hydroperoxides. Notably, cumene hydroperoxide is produced in a higher yield and at milder conditions than the currently employed industrial conditions.

A metal- and additive-free methodology for the highly selective, photocatalyzed C-H oxygenation of alkylarenes under air to the corresponding carbonyls is presented. The process is catalyzed by an imide-acridinium that forms an extremely strong photooxidant upon visible light irradiation, which is able to activate inert alkylarenes such as toluene. Hence, this is an easy to perform, sustainable and environmentally friendly oxidation that provides valuable carbonyls from abundant, readily available compounds.

A greener and inexpensive electrochemical method has been developed for the oxidation of benzyl alcohols by homogeneous electrolysis. The electrochemical reaction was carried out in an undivided cell equipped with carbon and stainless steel electrodes at room temperature. The homogeneous solution made up of acetonitrile/water containing substrate and ammonium bromide with a catalytic amount of H2SO4 as supporting electrolyte. The reaction condition was optimized with various electrochemical experimental parameters and evaluated with various substituted benzyl alcohols to result in excellent yield of aldehydes (>83%).

Paragraph 00219, (2021/04/02)
A method of oxygenating a benzylic C-H bond is provided. The method comprises light induced activation of an initiator and subsequent reaction with oxygen, resulting in the formation of free radicals. Subsequently, free radicals catalyze the reaction of the benzylic C-H bond with oxygen, thereby forming an oxygenated compound.

Toluene, p-xylene and mesitylene were cleanly converted to their corresponding monoaldehydes via mild photooxygenation utilizing transition metal and main group β-CF3-substituted corroles. Aldehyde yield increased as more electron-donating CH3 groups are present on the substrate. 4-P was most efficient (TON ～ 1072, mesitylene) via the singlet oxygen vis the superoxide mechanism.

, p. 1488 - 1493 (2019/09/09)
The surface modification of metal oxides using organic modifiers is a potential strategy for enhancing their catalytic performances. In this study, a hydrophobic surface amine-modified CoO catalyst with a water contact angle of 143° was fabricated. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, TGA, FT-IR, HR-TEM, and XPS. The results showed that the fabricated catalyst performed better than the hydrophilic commercial CoO nanoparticle in the process of aromatic hydrocarbon oxidation. After the amines modification, commercial CoO also became hydrophobic and improved conversion of ethylbenzene was achieved. The surface modification of CoO with amines induced the hydrophobicity property, which could serve as a reference for the design of other hydrophobic catalysts.

A new heterogeneous polymer supported solid phase oxovanadium(IV)catalyst was synthesized successfully. The designed catalyst furnished excellent results in the oxidation reactions of various aromatic alkanes, e.g. toluene, para-xylene, mesitylene. The polymer supported vanadium complex was proved also an efficient catalyst for the oxidation of aromatic alkenes, like substituted styrenes, trans-stilbene, etc. under mild reaction conditions. The supported catalyst was nicely elucidated by SEM-EDAX, TGA, FT-IR and UV–Vis spectral analysis. The catalytic activity was tested in the presence of an environment-friendly oxidant, 30% aqueous H2O2 during the oxidation of broad range of substrates. Another important fact is that the designed oxovanadium(IV)catalyst is heterogeneous in nature. Moreover, the newly synthesized oxovanadium(IV)complex exhibited a notable recoverability and it could be recycled up to six runs devoid of any prominent reduction in catalytic behavior.
