A mild and metal-free procedure is reported for the aerobic oxidation of substituted toluenes to carboxylic acids by using CBr 4 as initiator under irradiation from a 400 nm blue light-emitting diode.

We herein report the fabrication of a bifunctional iron nanocomposite catalyst, in which two catalytically active sites of Fe-Nx and Fe phosphate, as oxidation and Lewis acid sites, were simultaneously integrated into a hierarchical N,P-dual doped porous carbon. As a bifunctional catalyst, it exhibited high efficiency for direct oxidative cleavage of alkenes into ketones or their oxidation into 1,2-diketones with a broad substrate scope and high functional group tolerance using TBHP as the oxidant in water under mild reaction conditions. Furthermore, it could be easily recovered for successive recycling without appreciable loss of activity. Mechanistic studies disclose that the direct oxidation of alkenes proceeds via the formation of an epoxide as intermediate followed by either acid-catalyzed Meinwald rearrangement to give ketones with one carbon shorter or nucleophilic ring-opening to generate 1,2-diketones in a cascade manner. This study not only opens up a fancy pathway in the rational design of Fe-N-C catalysts but also offers a simple and efficient method for accessing industrially important ketones and 1,2-diketones from alkenes in a cost-effective and environmentally benign fashion.
