Abstract

The oxidation of methane and other light alkanes in the system iron complex — hydrogen peroxide has been studied. The efficiency of this system of alkane oxidation depends on water concentration. The catalytic methanol formation from methane with respect to the binuclear iron complex has been observed. The role of iron-oxocomplexes in oxidation of alkanes by methanemonooxygenase and model systems is discussed.
