This work demonstrated that the specific ionic liquids (ILs) have been designed via the supramolecular complexation between 18-crown-6 (CE) and ammonium peroxoniobate (NH4-Nb). The resultant ILs have been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, Raman, NMR, DSC, conductivity measurement and MALDI-TOF, etc. The IL (CE-1) consisting of CE and ammonium peroxoniobate can be further coordinated with GLY to generate a new IL (CE-2), which showed both high catalytic activity in epoxidation with H2O2 and good recyclability. The characterization of 93Nb NMR spectra revealed that the peroxoniobate anions has demonstrated a structural evolution in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, in which Nb[dbnd]O species can be easily oxidized into the catalytically active niobium?peroxo species. Especially, the supramolecular complexation can provide suitable hydrophobicity, which ensured that the hydrophobic olefins and allylic alcohols were easily accessible to the catalytically active anions, and thus facilitated the epoxidation reaction. Notably, the supramolecular IL catalysts in this work exhibited a huge advantage of the easy availability, as compared with the previously reported peroxoniobate-based ILs. As far as we know, this is the first example of the highly selective epoxidation of olefins and allylic alcohols by using supramolecular ILs as catalysts.
Three- and two-site heteropolyoxotungstate anions as catalysts for the epoxidation of allylic alcohols by H2O2 under biphasic conditions: Reactivity and kinetic studies of the [Ni3(OH2)3(B-PW9O34){WO5(H2O)}]7?, [Co3(OH2)6(A-PW9O34)2]12?, and [M4(OH2)2(B-PW9O34)2]10? anions, where M?=?Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II)

The trimetallic phosphopolyoxotungstate anions [Ni3(OH2)3(B-PW9O34){WO5(H2O)}]7? and [Co3(OH2)6(A-PW9O34)2]12? have been studied as epoxidation catalysts for oxygen transfer from 30% H2O2 to a range of allylic alcohols under biphasic conditions (1,2-dichloroethane/H2O) at 15 °C. The reaction mechanism involves coordination of an allylic alcohol at an M(II) site in each case, prior to transfer of a peroxy oxygen from an adjacent W(O2) site. The latter is formed from a terminal W = O unit by reaction with H2O2. Evidence of W(O2) formation was obtained through IR studies. The W(O2) group forms the epoxide by transfer of an oxygen atom to the C[dbnd]C bond of the coordinated allylic alcohol. Kinetic studies using 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol as the allylic alcohol substrate have been modelled with all three metal sites catalytically active. The reaction involves an autocatalysis mechanism involving an induction period, which can be rationalised by proposing not only coordination of the allylic alcohol to M(II), but also the product hydroxy epoxide, both through their –OH groups. The autocatalysis is generated by formation of the W(O2) group adjacent to a coordinated hydroxy epoxide, which competes with coordination of allylic alcohol. The mechanism requires some twenty-one steps involving just the generic steps listed above, with all three metal sites catalytically active. Temperature-dependent kinetic studies and subsequent Eyring analyses have shown that the Co(II)-containing catalyst is the most active of the two. Analogous studies of the epoxidation of 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol by the two-site [M4(OH2)2(B-PW9O34)2]10? ions as catalysts, where M = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II), at 15 °C gave an order of reactivity of Cu(II) > Ni(II) > Zn(II), Co(II), Mn(II), which mostly mimics the natural order of stability constants (the Irving-Williams series), suggesting that the formation of the allylic alcohol complexes play a dominant role in this series of related complex anions, with greater replacement of water by allylic alcohol leading to greater reactivity.

A new class of tantalum-based peroxocarbonate ionic liquid ([P4,4,4,4]3[Ta(η2-O2)3(CO4)]) has been generated through the reaction of pressurized CO2 with [P4,4,4,4]3[Ta(O)3(η2-O2)] in the presence of H2O2 during the reaction process. The newly formed species has been verified by NMR, FT-IR, HRMS and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The CO2-induced monomeric peroxocarbonate anion-based ionic liquid is more advantageous than the monomeric peroxotantalate analogue for the epoxidation of olefins under very mild conditions. Interestingly, the transformation between peroxotantalate and peroxocarbonate species is completely reversible, and CO2 can actually act as a trigger agent for epoxidation reaction. The further mechanism studies by DFT calculation reveal that peroxo η2-O2 (site a) affords higher reactivity towards the CC bond than that of peroxocarbonate-CO4 (site b). These quantitative illustrations of the relationship between structural properties and kinetic consequences enable rational design for an efficient and environmental IL catalyst for the epoxidation of olefins.
