Abstract

A mononuclear cobalt(III)-bis(tert-butylperoxo) adduct (CoIII-(OOtBu)2) bearing a tetraazamacrocyclic ligand was synthesized and characterized using various physicochemical methods, such as X-ray, UV-vis, ESI-MS, EPR, and NMR analyses. The crystal structure of the CoIII-(OOtBu)2 complex clearly showed that two OOtBu ligands bound to the equatorial position of the cobalt(iii) center. Kinetic studies and product analyses indicate that the CoIII-(OOtBu)2 intermediate exhibits nucleophilic oxidative reactivity toward external organic substrates.
