Abstract
The effect of complex formation between lead(IV) and trifluoroacetic or methanesulfonic acid and chloride ion in acetic acid and Freon 113 on the oxidation of cyclohexene by lead tetraacetate was investigated. As a result of the reaction the β-chlorocyclohexyl esters of the corresponding acids are formed with high yields. The formation of the complexes Pb(OAc)4−nLn and Pb(OAc)4−(n+1)LnCl, where L = CF3CO2- or CH3SO3- with n=1 or 2, was demonstrated by potentiometric titration. A scheme is proposed for the oxidation of cyclohexene with the participation of unlike-ligand complexes of Pb(IV).
