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.

Peroxygenases are heme-dependent enzymes that use peroxide-borne oxygen to catalyze a wide range of oxyfunctionalization reactions. Herein, we report the engineering of an unusual cofactor-independent peroxygenase based on a promiscuous tautomerase that accepts different hydroperoxides (t-BuOOH and H2O2) to accomplish enantiocomplementary epoxidations of various α,β-unsaturated aldehydes (citral and substituted cinnamaldehydes), providing access to both enantiomers of the corresponding α,β-epoxy-aldehydes. High conversions (up to 98 %), high enantioselectivity (up to 98 % ee), and good product yields (50–80 %) were achieved. The reactions likely proceed via a reactive enzyme-bound iminium ion intermediate, allowing tweaking of the enzyme's activity and selectivity by protein engineering. Our results underscore the potential of catalytic promiscuity for the engineering of new cofactor-independent oxidative enzymes.

An inexpensive, mild, and highly efficient epoxidation protocol has been developed involving bubbling SO2F2 gas into a solution of olefin, 30% aqueous hydrogen peroxide, and 4 N aqueous potassium carbonate in 1,4-dioxane at room temperature for 1 h with the formation of the corresponding epoxides in good to excellent yields. The novel SO2F2/H2O2/K2CO3 epoxidizing system is suitable to a variety of olefinic substrates including electron-rich and electron-deficient ones.

The Iridium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of cyclic sulfamidate imines was successfully developed with N-methylated ZhaoPhos L2 as the ligand. A variety of chiral cyclic sulfamidates were obtained with excellent results (up to 99% yield, 99% ee). Furthermore, this asymmetric hydrogenation can be employed as the key reaction step to prepare the important intermediates in organic synthesis. (Figure presented.).

1,3-Enynes are important building blocks in organic synthesis and also constitute the key motif in various bioactive natural products and functional materials. However, synthetic approaches to stereodefined substituted 1,3-enynes remain a challenge, as they are limited to Wittig and cross-coupling reactions. Herein, stereodefined 1,3-enynes, including tetrasubstituted ones, were straightforwardly synthesized from cis or trans-alkynylated oxiranes in good to excellent yields by a one-pot cascade process. The procedure relies on oxirane deprotonation, borylation and a stereospecific rearrangement of the so-formed alkynyloxiranyl borates. This stereospecific process overall transfers the cis or trans-stereochemistry of the starting alkynyloxiranes to the resulting 1,3-enynes.

In this study, convenient and selective oxidation of alcohols using aqueous hydrogen peroxide to yield carbonyl compounds was studied. Using the ruthenium-(4-methylphenyl-2,6-bispydinyl) pyridinedicarboxylate complex [Ru(mpbp)(pydic)] as a catalyst, primary and secondary alcohols were oxidized to aldehydes and ketones at room temperature with a satisfactory yield and excellent selectivity. The influence of various reaction parameters, such as solvent, catalyst and oxidant amount on both the activity and selectivity was also evaluated. Kinetic studies showed that the oxidation of alcohol was first order in terms of the substrate and hydrogen peroxide, and was second order in terms of the catalyst. A plausible mechanism involving ruthenium-oxo species with electrophilic character was proposed based on the in situ UV-vis spectroscopy studies and Hammett plots.

Noble-metal-free perovskite oxides are promising and well-known catalysts for high-temperature gas-phase oxidation reactions, but their application in selective oxidation reactions in the liquid phase has rarely been studied. We report the liquid-phase oxidation of cinnamyl alcohol over spray-flame synthesized LaCo1–xFexO3 perovskite nanoparticles with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidizing agent under mild reaction conditions. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, EDS and elemental analysis. LaCo0.8Fe0.2O3 showed the best catalytic properties indicating a synergistic effect between cobalt and iron. The catalysts were found to be stable against metal leaching as proven by hot filtration, and the observed slight deactivation is presumably due to segregation as determined by EDS. Kinetic studies revealed an apparent activation energy of 63.6 kJ mol?1. Combining kinetic findings with TBHP decomposition as well as control experiments revealed a complex reaction network.

A new triazine-based oxidizing reagent, 2-hydroperoxy-4,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazine (Triazox), has been developed. The reagent can be synthesized from inexpensive starting materials and is a bench-stable solid that is isolable in pure form. Epoxidation of alkenes possessing acid-sensitive functionalities using Triazox proceeded in good to excellent yields. The accompanying nonacidic triazinone coproduct can be easily removed by filtration. These features indicate that Triazox is a practically useful oxidizing reagent.

Several oxidative approaches namely thiocyanation of aromatic compounds, epoxidation of alkenes, amidation of aromatic aldehydes, epoxidation of α β-unsaturated ketones, oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones, bayer-villeger reaction, bromination and iodation of aniline and phenol derivatives oxidative esterification, oxidation of pyridines and oxidation of secondary, allylic and benzyllic alcohols were carried out using 1,1,2,2-Tetrahydroperoxy-1,2-Diphenylethane as the potential solid oxidant which can be stored for several months without any loss in its activity. All of the procedures were accomplished via mild reaction conditions and the products were afforded in high yields and short reaction times.

The organic carboxylic acid coordinated monomeric peroxoniobate-based ionic liquids (ILs) [TBA][NbO(OH)2(R)] (TBA = tetrabutylammonium; R = lactic acid (LA), glycolic acid (GLY), malic acid (MA)) were prepared and fully characterized by elemental analysis, NMR, IR, Raman, TGA, 93Nb NMR, and HRMS. These IL catalysts exhibited not only high catalytic activity for the epoxidation of olefins under very mild reaction conditions, as the turnover frequency of [TBA][NbO(OH)2(LA)] reached up to 110 h-1, but also satisfactory recyclability in the epoxidation by using only 1 equiv of hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant. Meanwhile, this work revealed that the ILs underwent structural transformation from [NbO(OH)2(R)]- to [Nb(O-O)2(R)]- (R = LA, GLY, MA) in the presence of H2O2 by a subsequent activity evaluation, characterization, and first-principles calculations. Moreover, the organic carboxylic acid coordinated monomeric peroxoniobate-based ILs were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations, which identified that [Nb(O-O)2LA]- was more advantageous than [Nb(O-O)2(OOH)2]- for the epoxidation of olefins. Due to the coordination between the α-hydroxy acids and the monomeric peroxoniobate anions, the functionalized ILs can efficiently catalyze the epoxidation of a wide range of olefins and allylic alcohols under very mild conditions. Additionally, the effect of solvents on the reaction is illustrated. It was found that methanol can lower the epoxidation barriers by forming a hydrogen bond with a peroxo ligand attached to the niobium center.
