    Ce travail de thèse traite de la conception de nouveaux matériaux mésomorphes. Deux dendrimères chiraux ont été synthétisés dans le but de transmettre leurs propriétés liquides-cristallines à un dérivé du ferrocène. Une évolution vers les ferrocènes peralkylés a permis d‟obtenir des ferrocéniums stables montrant une modification (commutation) des propriétés mésomorphes. Puis, grâce à une variation dans la construction du cœur dendritique, nous avons mis en évidence de manière distincte le rôle du dendrimère ainsi que de l‟oxydation. Ces mêmes dendrimères ont également trouvé d‟autres utilisations. Les fonctions se trouvant au cœur du dendrimère ont été modulées par des réactions d‟estérification avec différentes petites chaînes. Dès lors, ces nouveaux composés ont été utilisés dans la conception de composés de « type Janus » ayant comme partie centrale soit un malonate soit un cycle triazole. Ces composés ont montré d‟intéressantes propriétés liquides-cristallines., This thesis focuses on the design of new mesomorphic materials. Two chiral dendrimers were synthesized with the aim to transfer their liquid-crystalline properties to ferrocene derivatives. An evolution towards peralkylated ferrocene gave stable ferrocenium derivatives showing a switch between liquid-crystalline phases. The role of the dendritic structure and oxidation could be explained. Then, the functions located at the focal point of the dendrimers were modulated by esterification reactions. Therefore, these new compounds were used in the design of “Janus type” compounds having as central units a malonate or a triazol ring. These compounds showed interesting liquid-crystalline properties.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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).

    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.

    Alkane oxidation with hydrogen peroxide catalyzed homogeneously by vanadium-containing polyphosphomolybdates

    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.

    A mixture of sodium vanadate and pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (pcaH) efficiently catalyses the reaction of methane with molecular oxygen (from air) and hydrogen peroxide to give methyl hydroperoxide and, as consecutive products, methanol and formaldehyde. The reaction takes place under mild conditions (25-75 °C) either in aqueous or in acetonitrile solution. The complexes formed from the catalyst precursor and the co-catalyst (under the reaction conditions) have been isolated and characterized as the derivatives [VO2(pca)2]- (1) and [VO(O2) (pca)2]- (3). The implications of these species in the catalytic process are discussed.
