Abstract
The use of substrate probes for establishing the nature of intermediates and the mechanism of alkane oxidation by peroxides upon catalysis by binuclear iron complexes {[Fe 2 OL 2 (H 2 O) 2 ](ClO 4 ) 4 , where L = bpy, 4,4′-Me 2 bpy or 5-NO 2 phen (bpy = bipyridine, phen = phenanthroline)}, the analysis of the dependence of test parameters on the nature of a substituent in a ligand and the effect of dioxygen all make it possible to diagnose a two-electron mechanism for the transfer of the oxygen atom from peroxide to the C H bond of an alkane via metal complexes.
