Regioselective alkane oxygenation with H2O2 catalyzed by titanosilicalite TS-1
2006, Shul'pin, Georgiy B, Sooknoi, Tawan, Romakh, Vladimir B, Süss-Fink, Georg, Shul'pina, Lidia S
Titanosilicalite TS-1 catalyses oxidation of light (methane, ethane, propane and n-butane) and normal higher (hexane, heptane, octane and nonane) alkanes to give the corresponding isomeric alcohols and ketones. The oxidation of higher alkanes proceeds in many cases with a unique regioselectivity. Thus, in the reaction with n-heptane the CH2 groups in position 3 exhibited a reactivity 2.5 times higher than those of the other methylene groups. This selectivity can be enhanced if hexan-3-ol is added to the reaction mixture, the 3-CH2/2-CH2 ratio becoming 10. It is assumed that the unusual selectivity in the oxidation of n-heptane (and other higher alkanes) is due to steric hindrance in the catalyst cavity. As a result, the catalytically active species situated on the catalyst walls can only easily react with certain methylenes of the alkane, which is adsorbed in the cavity taking U-shape (hairpin) conformations.

Alkane oxygenation with H2O2 catalysed by FeCl3 and 2,2′-bipyridine
2005, Shul’pin, Georgiy B., Golfeto, Camilla C., Süss-Fink, Georg, Shul’pina, Lidia S., Mandelli, Dalmo
The H2O2–FeCl3–bipy system in acetonitrile efficiently oxidises alkanes predominantly to alkyl hydroperoxides. Turnover numbers attain 400 after 1 h at 60 °C. It has been assumed that bipy facilitates proton abstraction from a H2O2 molecule coordinated to the iron ion (these reactions are stages in the catalytic cycle generating hydroxyl radicals from the hydrogen peroxide). Hydroxyl radicals then attack alkane molecules finally yielding the alkyl hydroperoxide.
Oxidations by the system "hydrogen peroxide-manganese(IV) complex-carboxylic acid" Part 3. Oxygenation of ethane, higher alkanes, alcohols, olefins and sulfides
2001, Shul'pin, Georgiy B, Süss-Fink, Georg, Shul'pina, Lidia S
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.

Oxidations by the reagent 'O-2-H2O2 vanadate anion pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid'. Part 10 - Oxygenation of methane in acetonitrile and water
1998, Süss-Fink, Georg, Nizova, Galina V, Stanislas, Sandrine, Shul'pin, Georgiy B
The oxidation of methane by a combination of air and hydrogen peroxide is effectively catalyzed in solution by a system composed of vanadate and pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (PCA). In acetonitrile solution, containing the vanadate anion as tetrabutylammonium salt, the reaction gives, over a temperature range of 25 to 50 degrees C, methanol, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, formic acid and carbon dioxide, the latter three compounds, however, being partially due to the oxidation of the acetonitrile used as the solvent, especially at higher temperatures. In aqueous solution, containing the vanadate anion in the form of the sodium salt, the reaction affords, over a temperature range of 40 to 70 degrees C, selectively methyl hydroperoxide within 4 h. The yield of CH3OOH attains 24%, based on H2O2, after 24 h at 50 degrees C, the catalytic turnover number being 480. The process seems to involve hydroxyl radicals, generated by the catalyst from H2O2 even at low temperatures. At 120 degrees C, methane is oxidized by O-2 and H2O2 to give formaldehyde and formic acid, even in the absence of the catalyst, presumably due to the formation of HO radicals from H2O2 in the presence of very low concentrations of metal ions from the autoclave under high temperature conditions.

Regioselective alkane oxygenation with H2O2 catalyzed by titanosilicalite TS-1

Hydrogen peroxide oxygenation of alkanes including methane and ethane catalyzed by iron complexes in acetonitrile
2004, Shul'pin, Georgiy B, Nizova, Galina V, Kozlov, Yuriy N, Gonzalez-Cuervo, Laura, Süss-Fink, Georg
This paper describes an investigation of the alkane oxidation with hydrogen peroxide in acetonitrile catalyzed by iron(III) perchlorate (1), iron(III) chloride (2), iron(III) acetate (3) and a binuclear iron(III) complex with 1,4,7-triazacyclononane (4). The corresponding alkyl hydroperoxides are the main products. Nevertheless in the kinetic study of cyclohexane oxidation, the concentrations of oxygenates (cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol) were measured after reduction of the reaction solution with triphenylphosphine (which converts the cyclohexyl hydroperoxide to the cyclohexanol). Methane and ethane can be also oxidized with TONs up to 30 and 70, respectively. Chloride anions added to the oxidation solution with 1 activate the perchlorate iron derivative in acetonitrile, whereas the water as additive inactivates 2 in the H2O2 decomposition process. Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (PCA) added to the reaction mixture decreases the oxidation rate if 1 or 2 are used as catalysts, whereas compounds 3 and 4 are active as catalysts only in the presence of small amount of PCA. The investigation of kinetics and selectivities of the oxidations demonstrated that the mechanisms of the reactions are different. Thus, in the oxidations catalyzed by the 1, 3+PCA and 4+ PCA systems the main oxidizing species is hydroxyl radical, and the oxidation in the presence of 2 as a catalyst has been assumed to proceed (partially) with the formation of ferryl ion, (Fe-IV=O)(2+). In the oxidation catalyzed by the 4+PCA system (TONs attain 240) hydroxyl radicals were generated in the rate-determining step of monomolecular decomposition of the iron diperoxo adduct containing one PCA molecule. A kinetic model of the process which satisfactorily describes the whole set of experimental data was suggested. The constants of supposed equilibriums and the rate constant for the decomposition of the iron diperoxo adduct with PCA were estimated.
Alkane oxidation with hydrogen peroxide catalyzed homogeneously by vanadium-containing polyphosphomolybdates
2001, Süss-Fink, Georg, Gonzalez-Cuervo, Laura, Shul'pin, Georgiy B
Alkanes (cyclooctane, n-octane, adamantane, ethane) can be efficiently oxidized by hydrogen peroxide in acetonitrile using tetra-n-butylammonium salts of the vanadium-containing polyphosphomolybdates [PMo11 VO40](4-) and [PMo6V5O39](12-) as catalysts. The oxidation of alkanes gives rise to the corresponding alkyl hydroperoxides as the main products, which slowly decompose in the course of the reaction to produce the corresponding ketones (aldehydes) and alcohols. The reaction in acetic acid and water is much less efficient. The oxidation of cyclooctane at 60 degreesC in acetonitrile gives within 9 h oxygenates with turnover numbers > 1000 and yields > 30% based on the alkane. Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid added as co-catalyst accelerates the reaction but does not enhance the product yield. The oxidation of the cis- and trans-isomers of decalin proceeds without retention of configuration. The mechanism assumed involves the reduction of V(V) to V(IV) by a first molecule of hydrogen peroxide, followed by the reaction of V(IV) with a second H2O2 Molecule to generate hydroxyl radicals. The latter abstract a hydrogen atom from the alkane, RH, leading to alkyl radicals, R-., which rapidly react with aerobic oxygen. The alkyl peroxy radicals thus formed are then converted into alkyl hydroperoxides. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Hydroperoxidation of methane and other alkanes with H2O2 catalyzed by a dinuclear iron complex and an amino acid
2002, Nizova, Galina V, Krebs, Bernt, Süss-Fink, Georg, Schindler, Siegfried, Westerheide, Lars, Gonzalez-Cuervo, Laura, Shul'pin, Georgiy B
The compound [Fe-2(HPTB)([mu-OH)(NO3)(2)](NO3)(2).CH3OH.2H(2)O (1) containing a dinuclear iron(III) complex in which HPTB=N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-benzimidazolylmethyl)-2-hydroxo-1,3-diaminopro pane catalyzes the oxidation of alkanes with hydrogen peroxide in acetonitrile solution at room temperature only if certain amino acids (pyrazine-2-carboxylic, pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic or picolinic acid) are added to the reaction mixture. Alkyl hydroperoxides are formed as main reaction products. The turnover numbers attain 140 for cyclohexane, 21 for ethane and four for methane oxidation. The oxidation proceeds non-stereoselectively and bond selectivity parameters are low which testifies the participation of hydroxyl radicals in alkane functionalization. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Oxidations by the system "hydrogen peroxide manganese(IV) complex acetic acid" - Part II. Hydroperoxidation and hydroxylation of alkanes in acetonitrile
1999, Shul'pin, Georgiy B, Süss-Fink, Georg, Smith, J R Lindsay
Higher alkanes (cyclohexane, n-pentane, n-heptane, methylbutane, 2- and 3-methylpentanes, 3-methylhexane, cis- and trans-decalins) are oxidized at 20 degrees C by H2O2 in air in acetonitrile (or nitromethane) solution in the presence of the manganese(IV) salt [L2Mn2O3](PF6)(2) (L = 1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4-7-triazacyclononane) as the catalyst. An obligatory component of the reaction mixture is acetic add. Turnover numbers attain 3300 after 2 h, the yield of oxygenated products is 468 based on the alkane. The oxidation affords initially the corresponding alkyl hydroperoxide as the predominant product, however later these compounds decompose to produce the corresponding ketones and alcohols. Regio- and bond selectivities of the reaction are high: C(1) : C(2) : C(3) : C(4) approximate to 1 : 40 : 35 : 35 and 1 degrees : 2 degrees : 3 degrees is 1 : (15-40) : (180-300). The reaction with both. isomers of decalin gives (after treatment with PPh3) alcohols hydroxylated in the tertiary positions with the cis/trans ratio of similar to 2 in the case of cis-decalin, and of similar to 30 in the case of trans-decalin (i.e. in the latter case the reaction is stereospecific). Light alkanes (methane, ethane, propane, normal butane and isobutane) can be also easily oxidized by the same reagent in acetonitrile solution, the conditions being very mild: low pressure (1-7 bar of the alkane) and low temperature (-22 to +27 degrees C). Catalyst turnover numbers attain 3100, the yield of oxygenated products is 22% based on the alkane. The yields of oxygenates are higher at low temperatures. The ratio of products formed (hydroperoxide : ketone : alcohol) depends very strongly on the conditions of the reaction and especially on the catalyst concentration (at higher catalyst concentration the ketone is predominantly produced).
