Abstract
Oxidation of alkanes (methane, ethane, hexane, and cyclohexane) by hydrogen peroxide andtert-butyl hydroperoxide in acetonitrile catalyzed by binuclear μ-oxo-bridged iron complexes [Fe2OL4(H2O)2](ClO4)4 and [Fe2OL2PhCOO)2(H2O)2](ClO4)2, where L = bpy, 4,4′-Me2bpy, 4,4′-(ClCH2)2bpy, phen, and 5-NO2phen, was studied. It was shown that the nature of the substituent in the ligand affects both the rate of the catalyzed peroxide decomposition and catalytic activity of the complexes studied in the alkane oxidation.
