Abstract
Four coordination compounds were synthesized in high yields from different transition metal ions (Fe III, Co II, and Cu II) and an in situ generated Schiff-base ligand, i.e. 2-methoxy-6-((quinolin-8-ylimino)methyl)phenol (mqmpH). The compounds were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, ESI-MS, IR spectroscopy, and ligand-field spectroscopy. The iron(III) complex is an efficient catalyst for the oxidation of alkanes and alkenes, under relatively mild conditions and with dihydrogen peroxide as terminal oxidant.
