Abstract

Four chiral manganese(III)-salen complexes (1–4) were employed as catalysts in the oxidation of hydrocarbons at room temperature using pentafluoroiodosylbenzene as terminal oxidant. The reactions were carried out in acetonitrile and dichloromethane. Norbornene has been selectively oxidized to exo-epoxynorborane in 85% yield. At room temperature, oxygenation of cyclohexane up to 14% in acetonitrile medium has also been achieved.
