Abstract

Simulation of the enzymatic function of cytochrome P-450 with transition metal complex catalysts has resulted in finding biomimetic and catalytic oxidations of amines, amides, β-lactams, alcohols, phenols and hydrocarbons by using ruthenium catalyst and peroxide. Further study revealed that the catalytic formation of peracids in situ from aldehydes and molecular oxygen enables the aerobic oxidation of β-lactams, alcohols, alkanes and ketones in the presence of metal catalyst under mild conditions.
