The development of catalytic systems for the oxidation of organic compounds continues to be of great importance. There is an ongoing and increasing demand for methods that are selective, proceed under mild conditions, and adhere to green chemistry principles. Science of Synthesis: Catalytic Oxidation in Organic Synthesis includes the latest developments in the field, as well as selective coverage of more well-established methods. Systems based on metal catalysts, organocatalysts, and biomimetic oxidation are covered, and there is a particular focus on asymmetric processes. Scope, limitations, and mechanism of the reactions are discussed and key experimental procedures are included. Typical examples of target synthesis are often provided to show the utility and inspire further applications.
Abstracts
2.1 Photocatalytic Oxidation
A. G. Griesbeck, S. Sillner, and M. Kleczka
In this chapter, the transfer of molecular oxygen to organic substrates initiated by the action of an electronically excited catalyst with a substrate molecule or with triplet oxygen is described. Most of the primary products that derive from these reactions have an intact oxygen–oxygen bond (i.e., they are peroxides, hydroperoxides, or acyclic/cyclic dialkyl peroxides) or they are, in subsequent steps, converted into reduced products such as alcohols, ethers, or carbonyl compounds.
Keywords: alkenes • allylic alcohols • catalysts • hydroperoxides • oxygenation • peroxides • photochemistry • photooxidation • porphyrins
2.2 Catalytic Oxidations with Hypervalent Iodine
F. V. Singh and T. Wirth
Hypervalent iodine chemistry is a very active research area in both organic synthesis and natural product chemistry. Hypervalent iodine reagents have been used to perform various oxidative transformations under mild reaction conditions. These reagents have received particular attention since the first reports, in 2005, that they can act as catalysts. Since then, various hypervalent iodine catalyzed oxidative functionalizations, such as oxidations of alcohols and phenols, α-functionalizations of carbonyl compounds, cyclizations, and rearrangements have been successfully achieved. Several catalytic reactions have been developed using hypervalent iodine reagents as catalysts, while in other reactions iodoarenes have been used as precatalyst to generate active iodine(III) or iodine(V) species in situ. This chapter highlights various aspects of hypervalent iodine-catalyzed oxidation reactions, including asymmetric variants.
Keywords: catalytic oxidations • hypervalent iodine reagents • oxidants • stereoselective reactions
2.3 Water as an Oxygen Source for Oxidation Reactions
P. Garrido-Barros, I. Funes-Ardoiz, P. Farràs, C. Gimbert-Suriñach, F. Maseras, and A. Llobet
The use of water as oxygen source for the catalytic oxidation of organic substrates is a clean alternative to the commonly used methods that utilize oxidizing agents based on contaminant metals such as chromium or manganese. In this chapter, a detailed description of the thermodynamic requirements of this type of reaction is given, with particular emphasis on the so-called organic-substrate-assisted water splitting (OSA-WS) reaction that generates hydrogen gas as the only byproduct of the reaction. Important considerations regarding the metal catalyst needed to perform these reactions are discussed, followed by specific examples described in the literature. Among them, are examples of epoxidation of alkenes, oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides, and oxidation of alcohols to the corresponding carboxylic acids. In some cases, the energy input to perform the reaction comes from visible light by using photosensitizers or semiconductors as light-harvesting agents. Finally, two examples of photoelectrochemical cells (PECs) are described, where light-induced oxidation and reduction half reactions take place in separate compartments. This design provides an easy-to-process reaction where the oxidized organic compound and hydrogen gas byproduct are generated in independent compartments, and at the same time avoids undesired side reactions that may occur as a result of the mixture.
Keywords: water • oxidation • catalysts • sulfides • sulfoxides • alcohols • alkenes • epoxidation • styrene • light as energy source • photosensitizers • semiconductors • green chemistry • atom economy • proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) • ruthenium–aqua complexes • pincer ligands • metal–ligand cooperation
2.4 Dehydrogenation
Y. Kayaki and T. Ikariya
This chapter highlights effective dehydrogenation from saturated polar and non-polar molecules, including alcohols, amines, and (functionalized) alkanes, using homogeneous transition-metal complexes as catalysts. In the context of significant advances in molecular catalysts with metal–ligand cooperation as the key dehydrogenation strategy for the promotion of H+ and H– transfer, selected examples of dehydrogenative oxidation in the presence or absence of sacrificial oxidants are reviewed. As synthetic applications of catalytic dehydrogenation, oxidative coupling reactions with alcohols and/or amines are also presented.
Keywords: alcohols • alkanes • amines • carbonyl compounds • dehydration • dehydrogenation • heterocycles • homogeneous catalysis • hydride abstraction • hydrogen transfer • oxidative coupling • transition metals
2.5 Biomimetic Oxidation in Organic Synthesis
L. Vicens, M. Borrell, and M. Costas
Oxidation reactions performed by metalloenzymes are regarded as a model for the development of novel methods that could represent a more sustainable alternative to traditional oxidants, or that could also introduce novel selectivity. Herein, are collected oxidation methodologies that reproduce reactivity aspects of enzymatic systems and that find use for synthetic purposes. This includes catalytic systems based on iron, manganese, and copper that allow for the functionalization of aliphatic C—H bonds leading to halide and pseudohalide insertion, the epoxidation and cis-dihydroxylation of alkenes, the oxidation of alkanes, the oxidation of alcohols, and the hydroxylation of phenols.
Keywords: alkane oxidation • alkane halogenation • alkane fluorination • epoxidation • cis-dihydroxylation • hydrogen peroxide • phenol oxidation • alcohol oxidation • copper catalysts • iron catalysts • manganese catalysts
3 Metal-Catalyzed Oxidation of Alkanes To Give Esters or Amines
A. Caballero, M. M. Díaz-Requejo, and P. J. Pérez
The modification of relatively unreactive alkanes of general formula CnH2n+2, as well as of cycloalkanes CnH2n, by oxidation of C—H bonds in a catalytic manner is reviewed, focusing on their direct conversions into esters or amines upon incorporation of carbene or nitrene fragments, respectively.
Keywords: alkanes • carbene insertions • nitrene insertions • homogeneous catalysts • esters • amines • organometallic complexes
4 Allylic, Benzylic, and Propargylic Oxidation
P. Chen and G. Liu
Oxidation reactions of C—H bonds are fundamental in modern organic synthesis and always attract much attention. Over the last three decades, remarkable progress in the oxidation of allylic and benzylic C—H bonds has been made, whereas only a few examples of the oxidation of propargylic C—H bonds have been reported. In this review, the catalytic oxidation of allylic, benzylic, and propargylic C—H bonds is summarized. It covers the construction of C—O, C—N, C—C, and C—F bonds. Some rare examples of C—B and C—Si bond formation in benzylic oxidations are also included.
Keywords: catalysts • allylic oxidation • benzylic oxidation • propargylic oxidation • amination • alkylation • arylation • fluorination • silylation • borylation
5.1 Epoxidation of Alkenes
A. Berkessel, H. Engler, and T. M. Leuther
The Sharpless, Jacobsen/Katsuki, and Shi epoxidations are frequently applied in the asymmetric epoxidation of relatively electron-rich alkenes. The development and application of these “classics” has been reviewed numerous times. This chapter covers recent advances in the field, e.g. with regard to the extension of asymmetric epoxidation catalysis to hitherto problematic substrate classes, such as non-conjugated terminal alkenes, or homo- and bis-homoallylic alcohols. At the same time, hydrogen peroxide continues to receive increasing attention as an environmentally friendly and economically attractive terminal oxidant. Examples of efficient organocatalytic epoxidation processes are summarized as well. For electron-poor alkenes, e.g. those carrying carbonyl, nitrile, or sulfone acceptor groups, quite remarkable progress has recently been made both in metal and organocatalysis, and the chapter also includes details of methods and protocols in this area.
Keywords: alkenes • oxidation • oxiranes • epoxidation • catalysts • enantioselectivity • iron catalysis • manganese catalysis • ruthenium catalysis • titanium catalysis • tungsten catalysis • vanadium catalysis • zirconium catalysis • organocatalysis • enzyme catalysis
5.2 Dioxygenation of Alkenes
C. Martínez and K. Muñiz
A plethora of natural products exist that contain characteristic vicinal 1,2-diols in their scaffolds. The alkene dihydroxylation methodology developed by Sharpless continues to be the most robust and general method to obtain this important motif. However, the main problem with this transformation is the use of osmium as the catalyst and, since the...
