OPTIMIZATION OF IRIDIUM AND RUTHENIUM CATALYSTS IN THE C-H OXIDATION OF ALKANES

Abstract Details

2021, BS, Kent State University, College of Arts and Sciences / Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry.
C–H functionalization is a rapidly growing subfield of organic synthesis, and the development of selective, high-yielding oxidation catalysts is of great importance. This research develops a new class of 8-aminoquinoline-based ligands for Ir(III) C–H oxidation catalysts using sodium periodate as an oxidant, optimizes the reaction conditions, and develops a new triple-catalytic oxidation reaction with molecular oxygen as the terminal oxidant. Yields of single oxidation events using sodium periodate were as high as 50%, while use of the triple-catalytic oxidation reaction resulted in yields ranging from 6–30%.
