Regioselective alkane oxygenation with H2O2 catalyzed by titanosilicalite TS-1
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
The H2O2-FeCl3-bipy system in acetonitrile efficiently oxidises alkanes predominantly to alkyl hydroperoxides. Turnover numbers attain 400 after 1 h at 60 degrees 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. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Hydrogen Peroxide Oxygenation of Alkanes Including Methane and Ethane Catalyzed by Iron Complexes in Acetonitrile
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, (FeIV=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.
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.

Hydroperoxidation of methane and other alkanes with H2O2 catalyzed by a dinuclear iron complex and an amino acid
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.

Dinuclear iron, ruthenium and cobalt complexes containing 1,4-dimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane ligands as well as carboxylato and oxo or hydroxo bridges
The reaction of 1,4-dimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (L–Me2) with FeSO4 • 7H2O in aqueous ethanol gives, in the presence of sodium carboxylates, hydrogen peroxide, sodium hydroxide and KPF6, the dinuclear Fe(III)–Fe(III) complex cations [(L–Me2)2Fe2(O)(OOCR) 2]2+ (R = H: 1, R = CH3: 2, R = C6H5: 3), which crystallise as the hexafluorophosphate salts. The corresponding reaction with RuCl3 • nH2O does not work, however, the analogous Ru(III)–Ru(III) complex [(L–Me2)2Ru2 (O)(OOCCH3)2]2+ (5) can be synthesised by reacting Ru(dmso)4Cl2 with L–Me2, HCl and air in refluxing ethanol, followed by addition of sodium acetate, the mononuclear intermediate (L–Me2)RuCl3 • H2O (4) being also isolated and characterised. The reaction of L–Me2, sodium acetate, hydrogen peroxide and triethylamine with CoCl2 • 6H2O in acetonitrile yields, however, the hydroxo-bridged Co(III)–Co(III) complex [(L–Me2)2Co2 (OH)(OOCCH3)2]3+ (6). The molecular structures of 2, 5 and 6, solved by single-crystal X-ray structure analyses of the hexafluorophosphate salts, reveal for the orange crystals of [2][PF6]2 a Fe–Fe distance of 3.104(1) Å, for the purple crystals of [5][PF6]2 a Ru–Ru distance of 3.230(1) Å, and for the violet crystals of [6][PF6]3 • (CH3)2CO a Co–Co distance of 3.358(1) Å. All six complexes show catalytic activity for the oxidation of isopropanol with hydrogen peroxide in water to give acetone in the presence of ascorbic acid as co-catalyst.

Alkane oxygenation catalysed by gold complexes
Gold(III) and gold(I) complexes, NaAuCl4 and ClAuPPh3, efficiently catalyse the oxidation of alkanes by H2O2 in acetonitrile solution at 75 degreesC. Turnover numbers (TONs) attain 520 after 144 h. Alkyl hydroperoxides are the main products, whereas ketones (aldehydes) and alcohols are formed in smaller concentrations. It is suggested on the basis of the bond selectivity study that at least one of the pathways in Au-catalysed alkane hydroperoxidation does not involve the participation of free hydroxyl radicals. Possibly, the oxidation begins from the alkane hydrogen atom abstraction by a gold oxo species. The oxidation of cyclooctane by air at room temperature catalysed by NaAuCl4 in the presence of Zn/CH3COOH as a reducing agent and methylviologen as an electron-transfer agent gave cyclooctanol (TON = 10).
