The reaction of CoCl2·THF and thallium tris(4,4-dimethyl-2-oxazolinyl)phenylborate (TlToM) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) provides ToMCoCl (1) in 95 % yield; however, appropriate solvents and starting materials are required to favor 1 over two other readily formed side-products, (ToM)2Co (2) and {HToM}CoCl2(3). ESR, NMR, FTIR, and UV/Vis spectroscopies were used to distinguish these cobalt(II) products and probe their electronic and structural properties. Even after the structures indicated by these methods were confirmed by X-ray crystallography, the spectroscopic identification of trace contaminants in the material was challenging. The recognition of possible contaminants in the synthesis of ToMCoCl in combination with the paramagnetic nature of these complexes provided impetus for the utilization of X-ray powder diffraction to measure the purity of the ToMCoCl bulk sample. The X-ray powder diffraction results provide support for the bulk-phase purity of ToMCoCl in preparations that avoid 2 and 3. Thus, 1 is a precursor for new [tris(oxazolinyl)borato]cobalt chemistry, as exemplified by its reactions with KOtBu and NaOAc to give ToMCoOtBu (4) and ToMCoOAc (5), respectively. Compound 5 is a catalyst for the oxidation of cyclohexane with meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA), and the rate constants and selectivity for cyclohexanol versus cyclohexanone and ε-caprolactone were assessed.

N-Hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) is known to be an effective catalyst for the oxidation of hydrocarbons. The catalytic activity of NHPI derivatives is generally increased by introducing an electron-withdrawing group on the benzene ring. In a previous report, two NHPI derivatives containing fluorinated alkyl chain were prepared and their catalytic activity was investigated in the oxidation of cycloalkanes. It was found that the fluorinated NHPI derivatives showed better yields for the oxidation reaction. As a continuation of our work with fluorinated NHPI derivatives, our next aim was to investigate the catalytic activity of the NHPI derivatives by introducing fluorine atoms in the benzene ring of NHPI. In the present research, 3,4,5,6-Tetrafluoro-N-Hydroxyphthalimide (F4-NHPI) is prepared and its catalytic activity has been investigated in the oxidation of two different cycloalkanes for the first time. It has been found that F4-NHPI showed higher catalytic efficiency compared with that of the parent NHPI catalyst in the present reactions. The presence of a fluorinated solvent and an additive was also found to accelerate the oxidation.

Conversion of lignin-derived molecules into value-added chemicals is critical for sustainable chemistry but still challenging. Herein, phosphorus-modified palladium catalyzed the degradation of lignin-derived 4-O-5 linkage to produce KA oil (cyclohexanone-cyclohexanol oil) was reported. The reaction proceeds via a restricted partial hydrogenation-hydrolysis pathway. Phosphorus-modified palladium catalyst suppressed the full hydrogenation of diary ether, which was the key point to produce KA oil selectively. Under the optimized conditions, the 4.5 nm Pd-P NPs could catalyze the conversion of 4-O-5 linkage into KA oil in 83% selectivity with a high production rate of 32.5 mmol·g?1Pd·min?1. This study represented an original method for KA oil production.
