Abstract
Binuclear manganese(II) complexes with macrocyclic ligands have been synthesized by template Schiff base condensation of diethylenetriamine and pentane-2,4-dione or 1,3-diphenyl-propane-1,3-dione. Catalytic epoxidation of simple olefins with hydrogen peroxide and t-BHP were studied using the above manganese complexes in the presence of a base. The influence of reaction temperature, the additive methanol and the cocatalyst had been investigated. The major products of the oxidations were the epoxides. The new manganese complexes showed significant catalytic activities for the epoxidation of alkenes using hydrogen peroxide as oxidant and ammonium acetate as cocatalyst.
