Abstract

The oxidation of alkylarenes by dioxygen in the presence of complexes of nickel and cobalt with macrocyclic ethers 18-crown-6 and 15-crown-5 was studied. The conditions for selective catalytic oxidation of ethylbenzene to α-phenylethyl hydroperoxide were determined. The kinetics of the accumulation of all oxidation products was studied. The order of the formation of the products at different stages of chain oxidation was determined. The activity of the complexes at the elementary stages of the chain oxidation of ethylbenzene is discussed.
