- Oxido-alcoholato/thiolato-molybdenum(VI) complexes with a dithiolene ligand generated by oxygen atom transfer to the molybdenum(IV) complexes
-
Oxido-alcoholato- and oxido-thiolato-molybdenum(VI) complexes bearing two ene-1,2-dithiolate ligands (cyclohexene-1,2-dithiolate) are prepared as synthetic models of molybdenum(VI) reaction centers of dimethyl sulfoxide reductase family of molybdenum enzymes. These complexes are prepared by oxygen atom transfer from tertiary amine N-oxide (trimethylamine N-oxide and N,N-dimethylaniline N-oxide) to the five-coordinate alcoholato- and thiolato-molybdenum(IV) complexes, and are characterized by UV–vis, cold-spray-ionization mass, resonance Raman, and 1H NMR spectroscopies. The oxygen atom transfer reactions are studied kinetically at a low temperature (?40 °C) to demonstrate that the reactivity of the thiolato-molybdenum(IV) complex is higher than that of alcoholato-molybdenum(IV) complex by about 7 times, and that the oxygen atom transfer reactivity increases with increasing the electron withdrawing ability of the p-substituent of N,N-dimethylaniline N-oxide derivatives. Mechanistic details are discussed based on the reactivity studies.

- Synthesis of Halogenated Anilines by Treatment of N, N-Dialkylaniline N-Oxides with Thionyl Halides
-
The special reactivity of N,N-dialkylaniline N-oxides allows practical and convenient access to electron-rich aryl halides. A complementary pair of reaction protocols allow for the selective para-bromination or ortho-chlorination of N,N-dialkylanilines in up to 69% isolated yield. The generation of a diverse array of halogenated anilines is made possible by a temporary oxidation level increase of N,N-dialkylanilines to the corresponding N,N-dialkylaniline N-oxides and the excision of the resultant weak N-O bond via treatment with thionyl bromide or thionyl chloride at low temperature.

- Renewable waste rice husk grafted oxo-vanadium catalyst for oxidation of tertiary amines to N-oxides
-
Low cost renewable waste rice husks (RH) have been used as a support for grafting of an oxo-vanadium Schiff base via covalent attachment for the oxidation of tertiary amines to N-oxide. The synthesis of the desired RH grafted oxo-vanadium complex involves prior functionalization of the RH support with amino-propyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) followed by its reaction with salicylaldehyde to get an RH-functionalized Schiff base which subsequently reacted with vanadyl sulphate to get the targeted oxo-vanadium catalyst. The synthesized catalyst was found to be an efficient heterogeneous catalyst and afforded an excellent yield of corresponding N-oxides via oxidation of tertiary amines with hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant. Furthermore, the synthesized catalyst was found to be quite stable and showed consistent activity for five runs without any loss in activity.

- Oxovanadium(IV)-salen ion catalyzed H2O2 oxidation of tertiary amines to n-oxides- critical role of acetate ion as external axial ligand
-
The oxovanadium(IV)-salen ion catalyzed H2O2 oxidation of N,N-dimethylaniline forms N-oxide as the product of the reaction. The reaction follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics and the rate of the reaction is accelerated by electron donating groups present in the substrate as well as in the salen ligand. This peculiar substituent effect is accounted for in terms of rate determining bond formation between peroxo bond of the oxidant and the N-atom of the substrate in the transition state. Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) shifts the λmax value of the oxidant to the red region and catalyzes reaction enormously. The cleavage of N£O bond by vanadium complex leads to moderate yield of the product. But the percentage yield of the product becomes excellent in the presence of TCA.

- Probing the reactivity of oxomanganese-salen complexes: An electrospray tandem mass spectrometric study of highly reactive intermediates
-
Electrospray ionization in combination with tandem mass spectrometric techniques has been employed to study the formation of oxomanganese-salen complexes upon oxidation of [MnIII(salen)]+ cations as well as the properties and reactions of the oxidized species in the gas phase. Two species could be characterized as the principal oxidation products: the oxomanganese(V) complex, [Mn=O(salen)]+, which is the actual oxygen-transfer agent in epoxidation reactions, and the dinuclear, μ-oxo bridged [L(salen)Mn-Q-Mn-(salen)L]2+ with two terminal ligands L; the latter acts as a reservoir species. The effects of various substituents in the 5-and 5′-positions, respectively, of the salen ligand on the reactivity of the epoxidation catalyst were determined quantitatively from CID (collision-induced dissociation) experiments and B3LYP density functional calculations. Accordingly, the effect of axial donor ligands on the reactivity of the epoxidation catalyst was studied. Electron-withdrawing substitutents on the salen ligand and additional axial ligands decrease the stability and thus enhance the reactivity of the Mn=O moiety, while electron-donating salen substituents have a strong stabilizing effect.

- Kinetics and Mechanism of Oxidation of Anilines by Hydrogen Peroxide As Catalyzed by Methylrhenium Trioxide
-
The oxidation of anilines by hydrogen peroxide in methanol is catalyzed by methylrhenium trioxide, CH3ReO3.The major product of the oxidation of aniline at room temperature is nitrosobenzene.For 4-substituted N,N-dimethylanilines, the N-oxide is the only product.The rate constants for the oxidation of 4-substituted N,N-dimethylanilines follow a linear Hammett relationship with ρ = -1.19.The rate constants for the reaction between CH3Re(O)2(O2), referred to as A, and 4-XC6H4-NMe2 are as follows: 4-Me, 24.5; 4-H, 18.4; 4-F, 12.7; 4-Br, 8.7; and 4-NO2, 1.0 L mol-1 s-1.This shows that electron-withdrawing substituents inhibit the reaction.The corresponding rate constant for the oxidation of aniline is 2.04 +/- 0.11 L mol-1 s-1, whereas it is 178 +/- 11 L mol-1 s-1 for the oxidation of N-phenylhydroxylamine to nitrosobenzene.A mechanism has been assigned on the basis of the kinetics and product yields.The data are consistent with the attack of the nucleophilic nitrogen atom on one of the peroxidic oxygen atom of A.The kinetics of the reaction of CH3ReO3 and hydrogen peroxide in methanol were also investigated.The formation of the 1:1 peroxide compound A is characterized by an equilibrium constant K1 = 261 +/- 6 L mol-1.The equilibration occurs rapidly: k1 = 1150 +/- 60 L mol-1 s-1 and k-1 = 4.4 +/- 0.4 s-1 at 25.0 deg C.The bisperoxide compound, CH3Re(O)(O2)2(H2O), B, forms more slowly.The rate constant is k2 = 308 +/- 16 L mol-1 s-1, and the equilibrium constant is K2 = 814 +/- 14 L mol-1 at 25.0 deg C in methanol.B reacts with the anilines, but much more slowly than A.
