Iodosobenzene and persulfate oxygenation of saturated hydrocarbons catalyzed by diphosphino complexes of ruthenium(III)
摘要:
Hydroxylation and/or ketonization of alkanes (adamantane, cyclo-octene, hexane) is achieved by using iodosobenzene or aqueous mono-persulfate at room temperature in the presence of catalytic amounts of ruthenium(III)-diphosphino complexes dissolved in dichloromethane. On the basis of the kinetic behavior, different oxidizing metal species are proposed for the oxidations with mono-persulfate and with iodosobenzene.
