Conclusions
-
1.
The formation of an iron porphyrin peroxo complex from molecular oxygen and a sterically hindered iron porphyrin was detected in the presence of zinc amalgam and methylviologen in acetonitrile.
-
2.
The catalytic oxidation of cyclohexane was detected in this system was detected in the presence of Ac2O and a mechanism was proposed for this reaction.
