    The vanadate anion in the presence of pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (PCA equivalent to pcaH) efficiently catalyzes the oxidation of 2-propanol by hydrogen peroxide to give acetone. UV-vis spectroscopic monitoring of the reaction as well as the kinetics lead to the conclusion that the crucial step of the process is the monomolecular decomposition of a diperoxovanadium(V) complex containing the pca ligand to afford the peroxyl radical, HOO center dot and a V(IV) derivative. The rate-limiting step in the overall process may not be this (rapid) decomposition itself but (prior to this step) the slow hydrogen transfer from a coordinated H2O2 molecule to the oxygen atom of a pca ligand at the vanadium center: "(pca)(O)V center dot center dot center dot O2H2" -> "(pca)(HO-)V-OOH". The V(IV) derivative reacts with a new hydrogen peroxide molecule to generate the hydroxyl radical ("V-IV" + H2O2 -> "V-V" + HO- + HO center dot), active in the activation of isopropanol: HO center dot + Me2CH(OH) -> H2O + Me2C center dot(OH). The reaction with an alkane, RH, in acetonitrile proceeds analogously, and in this case the hydroxyl radical abstracts a hydrogen atom from the alkane: HO center dot + RH -> H2O + R-center dot. These conclusions are in a good agreement with the results obtained by Bell and co-workers (Khaliullin, R. Z.; Bell, A. T.; Head-Gordon, M. J. Phys. Chem. B 2005, 109, 17984-17992) who recently carried out a density functional theory study of the mechanism of radical generation in the reagent under discussion in acetonitrile.

    Analysis of the electronic structure of the electron-deficient cluster cation [Ru-4(eta(6)-C6H6)(4)H-4](2+) (1(2+)) by density functional theory calculations shows a very small energy gap (0.06 eV) between the diamagnetic singlet state and the paramagnetic triplet state, as a consequence of the absence of a significant Jahn-Teller distortion in the molecular structure of 1(2+). Magnetic measurements of [1]Cl-2, [1][BF4](2), and [1][PF6](2) show 1(2+) to be diamagnetic in the fundamental state, with some weak temperature-independent paramagnetism, depending upon the nature of the counterion.

    Oxidations by the system "hydrogen peroxide-manganese(IV) complex-carboxylic acid" Part 3. Oxygenation of ethane, higher alkanes, alcohols, olefins and sulfides

    The manganese(IV) complex salt [L2Mn2O3](PF6)(2) (L = 1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) (compound 1, see Scheme 1) very efficiently catalyzes the hydroperoxidation of saturated hydrocarbons, including ethane by H2O2 in acetontitrile or nitromethane solution at low (room or lower) temperature, provided a carboxylic (typically acetic) acid is present. The hydroperoxidation of tertiary positions in disubstituted cyclohexanes proceeds with partial retention of configuration in nitromethane or acetonitrile solution, while the stereoselectivity of the reaction is only negligible in acetone solution. The system "H2O2-compound 1-MeCO2H" also transforms secondary alcohols into the corresponding ketones with quantitative yields at room temperature within a few minutes; the yields of aldehydes and carboxylic acids in the oxidation of primary alcohols are lower. Terminal aliphatic olefins such as hexene-1 are quantitatively epoxidized by the same system in acetonitrile at room temperature within 20 min, while the epoxide yield in the analogous reaction with styrene attains only 60% under the same conditions. Finally, dimethylsulfide can be quantitatively and selectively converted into dimethylsulfoxide within 3h at room temperature. The system "tert-BuOOH-compound 1" also oxidizes alkanes, addition of acetic acids has less pronounced effect on the direction and efficiency of the reaction, Two other checked derivative of Mn(IV) (compounds 2 and 3) as well a porphyrin complex of Mn(III) (compound 4) exhibited lower activity in catalysis of alkane oxidation with tert-BuOOH.

    The dinuclear hydride complex [(p-Me-C6H4-Pr')(2)Ru2Cl2(mu-Cl)(mu-H)] (1) reacts with the sodium halides NaX in methanol to give the halogen analogues [(p-Me-C6H4-Pr')(2)Ru2X2(mu-X)(mu-H)] (2: X = F, 3: X = Br, 4: X = I). With HX, complex 1 reacts to give the tetrahalo complexes [(p-Me-C6H4-Pr')(2)Ru2X2(mu-X)(2)] (5: X = Cl, 6: X = Br, 7: X = I); in the case of X = I, a large excess of HI leads to the formation of the cationic complex [(p-Me-C6H4-Pr')(2)Ru-2(mu-I)(3)](+) (8). The X-ray structure analysis of 1 shows a dinuclear Ru-2 backbone with two terminal chloro ligands being irans with respect to each other as the two p-cymene ligands, the two bridging ligands lie in a plane perpendicular to the plane defined by the terminal chloro ligands and the ruthenium atoms.

    A low-temperature H-1-NMR study suggests the tetranuclear cluster dication [H6Ru4(C6H6)(4)](2+) (1) to contain an H-2 ligand that undergoes, upon warming of the solution, an intramolecular exchange with the four hydride ligands at the Ru-4 framework. Whereas two of the three NMR signals at - 120 degrees C in the hydride region show T-1 values in the range 200-300 ms, the least deshielded resonance at delta = - 17.33 ppm exhibits a T-1 value of only 34 ms, characteristic of an H-2 ligand. a re-examination of the single-crystal X-ray structure analysis of the chloride salt of 1 supports this interpretation by a short distance of 1.14(0.15) Angstrom between two hydrogen atoms coordinated as a PI-PI ligand in a side-on fashion to one of the triangular faces of the Ru-4 tetrahedron. The distance between one of the two hydrogen atoms of the H-2 ligand and one of the four hydride ligands is also very short [1.33(0.15) Angstrom], suggesting an additional H-2... H interaction. The presence of this H-3, unit over one of the three Ru-3 faces in 1 may explain the deformation of the Ru-4 skeleton from the expected tetrahedral symmetry. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations on 1 indicate a very soft potential energy surface associated with the respective displacement of the three interacting cofacial hydrogen atoms. In accordance with these results, the cluster dication 1 tends to loose molecular hydrogen to form the cluster dication [H4Ru4(C6H6)(4)](2+) (2). The equilibrium between 1 and 2 can be used for catalytic hydrogenation reactions. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
