Abstract

A novel bis(oxazoline) ligand derived from 1,3-dicyanobenzene was prepared and applied as a ligand for the preparation of a new binuclear molybdenyl complex. This ligand was characterized by UV–Vis, mass, 1H NMR, and FT-IR spectroscopic methods, thermal and elemental analysis and X-ray diffraction. The molybdenum complex was prepared by the reaction of this ligand with MoO2(acac)2. The catalyst was also characterized by FT-IR, UV–Vis, and ICP spectroscopy, elemental and thermal analysis. This catalytic system was efficiently used for the oxidation of alkenes and sulfides in the presence of TBHP. The effect of different solvents and kind of oxygen donor was also studied in the oxidation reactions.
