Sterically hindered imine-based non-heme complexes4and5rapidly self-assemble in acetonitrile at 25 °C, when the corresponding building blocks are added in solution in the proper ratios. Such complexes are investigated as catalysts for the H2O2oxidation of a series of substrates in order to ascertain the role and the importance of the ligand steric hindrance on the action of the catalytic core1, previously shown to be an efficient catalyst for aliphatic and aromatic C-H bond oxidation. The study reveals a modest dependence of the output of the oxidation reactions on the presence of bulky substituents in the backbone of the catalyst, both in terms of activity and selectivity. This result supports a previously hypothesized catalytic mechanism, which is based on the hemi-lability of the metal complex. In the active form of the catalyst, one of the pyridine arms temporarily leaves the iron centre, freeing up a lot of room for the access of the substrate.

A series of bioinspired copper(II) complexes of N4-tripodal and sterically crowded diazepane-based ligands have been investigated as catalysts for functionalization of the aromatic C-H bond. The tripodal-ligand-based complexes exhibited distorted trigonal-bipyramidal (TBP) geometry (τ, 0.70) around the copper(II) center; however, diazepane-ligand-based complexes adopted square-pyramidal (SP) geometry (τ, 0.037). The Cu-NPy bonds (2.003-2.096 ?) are almost identical and shorter than Cu-Namine bonds (2.01-2.148 ?). Also, their Cu-O (Cu-Owater, 1.988 ? Cu-Otriflate, 2.33 ?) bond distances are slightly varied. All of the complexes exhibited Cu2+ → Cu+ redox couples in acetonitrile, where the redox potentials of TBP-based complexes (-0.251 to -0.383 V) are higher than those of SP-based complexes (-0.450 to -0.527 V). The d-d bands around 582-757 nm and axial patterns of electron paramagnetic resonance spectra [g∥, 2.200-2.251; A∥, (146-166) × 10-4 cm-1] of the complexes suggest the existence of five-coordination geometry. The bonding parameters showed K∥ > K∥ for all complexes, corresponding to out-of-plane πbonding. The complexes catalyzed direct hydroxylation of benzene using 30% H2O2 and afforded phenol exclusively. The complexes with TBP geometry exhibited the highest amount of phenol formation (37%) with selectivity (98%) superior to that of diazepane-based complexes (29%), which preferred to adopt SP-based geometry. Hydroxylation of benzene likely proceeded via a CuII-OOH key intermediate, and its formation has been established by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, vibrational, and electronic spectra. Their formation constants have been calculated as (2.54-11.85) × 10-2 s-1 from the appearance of an O (π?σ) → Cu ligand-to-metal charge-transfer transition around 370-390 nm. The kinetic isotope effect (KIE) experiments showed values of 0.97-1.12 for all complexes, which further supports the crucial role of Cu-OOH in catalysis. The 18O-labeling studies using H218O2 showed a 92% incorporation of 18O into phenol, which confirms H2O2 as the key oxygen supplier. Overall, the coordination geometry of the complexes strongly influenced the catalytic efficiencies. The geometry of one of the CuII-OOH intermediates has been optimized by the density functional theory method, and its calculated electronic and vibrational spectra are almost similar to the experimentally observed values.

The OsVI nitrido complex, OsVI(N)(quin)2(OTs) (1, quin=2-quinaldinate, OTs=tosylate), is a highly selective and efficient catalyst for the ring hydroxylation of alkylbenzenes with H2O2 at room temperature. Oxidation of various alkylbenzenes occurs with ring/chain oxidation ratios ranging from 96.7/3.3 to 99.9/0.1, and total product yields from 93 % to 98 %. Moreover, turnover numbers up to 6360, 5670, and 3880 can be achieved for the oxidation of p-xylene, ethylbenzene, and mesitylene, respectively. Density functional theory calculations suggest that the active intermediate is an OsVIII nitrido oxo species.

An iminopyridine Fe(ii) complex, easily prepared in situ by self-assembly of cheap and commercially available starting materials (2-picolylaldehyde, 2-picolylamine, and Fe(OTf)2 in a 2 : 2 : 1 ratio), is shown to be an effective catalyst for the direct hydroxylation of aromatic rings with H2O2 under mild conditions. This catalyst shows a marked preference for aromatic ring hydroxylation over lateral chain oxidation, both in intramolecular and intermolecular competitions, as long as the arene is not too electron poor. The selectivity pattern of the reaction closely matches that of electrophilic aromatic substitutions, with phenol yields and positions dictated by the nature of the ring substituent (electron-donating or electron-withdrawing, ortho-para or meta-orienting). The oxidation mechanism has been investigated in detail, and the sum of the accumulated pieces of evidence, ranging from KIE to the use of radical scavengers, from substituent effects on intermolecular and intramolecular selectivity to rearrangement experiments, points to the predominance of a metal-based SEAr pathway, without a significant involvement of free diffusing radical pathways.

A new method for the hydrolysis of diazonium salts, without the formation of tar, was developed. A two-phase system consisting of cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME) and water is very effective for the hydrolysis of diazonium salts. Using this solvent system, the diazonium salt prepared from 3-(4-nitrophenoxy)aniline gave 3-(4-nitrophenoxy)phenol in high yield (96%) within 20 min. The synthesized phenol is an industrially important raw material in polymer syntheses. Furthermore, the use of the present two-phase system of CPME and water successfully brought about the efficient conversions of several m-substituted anilines into the corresponding m-substituted phenols. This is the first example of hydrolysis of diazonium salts using the two-phase system (CPME and water).

Selective hydroxylation of benzene to phenol has been achieved using H2O2 in the presence of a catalytic amount of the nickel complex [NiII(tepa)]2+ (2) (tepa = tris[2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl]amine) at 60°C. The maximum yield of phenol was 21% based on benzene without the formation of quinone or diphenol. In an endurance test of the catalyst, complex 2 showed a turnover number (TON) of 749, which is the highest value reported to date for molecular catalysts in benzene hydroxylation with H2O2. When toluene was employed as a substrate instead of benzene, cresol was obtained as the major product with 90% selectivity. When H218O2 was utilized as the oxidant, 18O-labeled phenol was predominantly obtained. The reaction rate for fully deuterated benzene was nearly identical to that of benzene (kinetic isotope effect = 1.0). On the basis of these results, the reaction mechanism is discussed.

Peroxide in, phenol out: The catalyst [-PW10O38V 2(μ-OH)2]3- showed high activity in the hydroxylation of various aromatic compounds with aqueous H2O 2. The system was regioselective, producing para-phenols from monosubstituted benzene derivatives. Furthermore, alkylarenes with reactive side-chain Ca spa 3-H bonds could be chemoselectively hydroxylated without significant formation of side-chain oxygenated products. Copyright
