Abstract

Cyclohexene and tetralin can be oxidized to a slight extent by N 2O in the presence of quaternary ammonium salt promoters under mild experimental conditions. In non-polar solutions, the higher yields of the oxidations of cyclohexene and tetralin are influenced by the donor–acceptor properties of the solvents. The changes in the IR spectrum of N 2O lend further support to the assumption that ion-pair interactions between the solvated oxidant and the onium salts result in an enhanced rate of O-transfer from the oxidant. Onium-decavanadate ion-pair complexes are more effective promoters than simple onium salts.
