A quinoline-oxazoline compound having the formula:
where one of X
1
and X
2
is N and the other is C and one of R1, R2 and R3 is Z wherein Z is an oxazoline radical having the formula
such that when X
1
is N R2 is Z and R1 is absent, and when X
2
is N either R1 or R3 is Z and R2 is absent. R1 and R3 through R12 are independently H or a pendant moiety which does not interfere with coordination of either N in the quinoline compound with a coordination center. These compounds can be complexed with a suitable coordination center such as catalytically active palladium and can be highly useful in catalytically oxidizing alkenes with high regioselectivity.
