Abstract
The direct oxygenation of alkylarenes at the benzylic position employing bioinspired nonheme catalysts has emerged as a promising strategy for the production of bioactive arene ketone scaffolds in drugs. However, the structure-activity relationship of the active species and the mechanism of these reactions remain elusive. Herein, the reaction mechanism of the Mn(II)-mediated benzylic oxygenation of phenylbutanoic acid (PBA) to 4-oxo-4-phenylbutyric acid (4-oxo-PBA) by H2O2 was investigated using density functional theory calculations. The calculated results demonstrated that the MnIII-OOH species (1) is a sluggish oxidant and needs to be converted to a high-valent manganese-oxo species (2). The conversion of PBA to 4-oxo-PBA by 2 occurs via the consecutive hydroxylation of PBA to 4-hydroxyl-4-phenylbutyric acid (4-OH-PBA) and the alcohol oxidation of 4-OH-PBA to 4-oxo-PBA. The hydroxylation of PBA proceeds via a novel hydride transfer/hydroxyl-rebound mechanism and the alcohol oxidation of 4-OH-PBA occurs via three pathways (gem-diol, dual hydrogen abstraction (DHA), and reversed-DHA pathways). The regio-selectivity of benzylic oxidations was caused by a strong π-π stacking interaction between the pyridine ring of the nonheme ligand and the phenyl ring of the substrate. These mechanistic findings enrich the knowledge of biomimetic alcohol oxidations and play a positive role in the rational design of new non-heme catalysts.

Abstract
Direct C-H bond oxygenation is a strong and useful tool for the construction of oxygen functional groups. After Chen and White's pioneering works, various non-heme-type iron and manganese complexes were introduced, leading to strong development in this area. However, for this method to become a truly useful tool for synthetic organic chemistry, it is necessary to make further efforts to improve site-selectivity, and catalyst durability. Recently, we found that non-heme-type ruthenium complex cis-1 presents efficient catalysis in C(sp3 )-H oxygenation under acidic conditions. cis-1-catalysed C-H oxygenation can oxidize various substrates including highly complex natural compounds using hypervalent iodine reagents as a terminal oxidant. Moreover, the catalyst system can use almost stoichiometric water molecules as the oxygen source through reversible hydrolysis of PhI(OCOR)2 . It is a strong tool for producing isotopic-oxygen-labelled compounds. Moreover, the environmentally friendly hydrogen peroxide can be used as a terminal oxidant under acidic conditions.

Abstract
![]()
The C(sp3)–H bond oxygenation of the cyclopropane-containing
mechanistic probes 6-tert-butylspiro[2.5]octane and
spiro[2.5]octane with hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by manganese complexes
bearing aminopyridine tetradentate ligands has been studied. Mixtures
of unrearranged and rearranged oxygenation products (alcohols, ketones,
and esters) are obtained, suggesting the involvement of cationic intermediates
and the contribution of different pathways following the initial hydrogen
atom transfer-based C–H bond cleavage step. Despite such a
complex mechanistic scenario, a judicious choice of the catalyst structure
and reaction conditions (solvent, temperature, and carboxylic acid)
could be employed to resolve these oxygenation pathways, leading,
with the former substrate, to conditions where a single unrearranged
or rearranged product is obtained in good isolated yield. Taken together,
the work demonstrates an unprecedented ability to precisely direct
the chemoselectivity of the C–H oxidation reaction, discriminating
among multiple pathways. In addition, these results conclusively demonstrate
that stereospecific C(sp3)–H oxidation can take
place via a cationic intermediate and that this path can become exclusive
in governing product formation, expanding the available toolbox of
aliphatic C–H bond oxygenations. The implications of these
findings are discussed in the framework of the development of synthetically
useful C–H functionalization procedures and the associated
mechanistic features.

Abstract
This review article surveys the recent experimental findings that suggest alternative chemical models of directed chirality amplification at the early, prebiotic Earth. It is believed that the chirality amplification step followed the initial emergence of small enantiomeric imbalance and preceded (as a necessary condition) the occurrence of homochiral biopolymers, assembled from enantiomerically pure building blocks. This work focuses on the chemical nature of possible mechanisms of primordial chirality enhancement, without going into detail of the preceding and subsequent phases of origination of biological homochirality and life on Earth. These mechanisms are discussed through the prism of integrity of biological natural selection and chemical kinetic selection.

Abstract
Oxidative kinetic resolution of 1-phenylethanol in the presence of manganese complexes, bearing conformationally nonrigid achiral bis-amine-bis-pyridine ligands, in the absence of any exogenous chiral additives, is reported. The only driving force for the chiral discrimination is the small initial enantiomeric imbalance of the scalemic (nonracemic) substrate: the latter dynamically controls the chirality of the catalyst, serving itself as the chiral auxiliary. In effect, the ee of 1-phenylethanol increases monotonously over the reaction course. This dynamic control of catalyst chirality by the substrate has been unprecedented; a consistent kinetic model for this process is presented. The reported catalyzed substrate self-enantioenrichment mechanism is discussed in relation to the problem of prebiotic chirality amplification.

Abstract
The main purpose of this work was to discover the way to obtain pure enantiomers of indan-1-ol. The subject of the study was the ability of the plant enzyme system to reduce the carbonyl group of indan-1-one, as well as to oxidize the hydroxyl group of racemic indan-1-ol. Locally available fruit and vegetables were selected for stereoselective biotransformation. During the reduction, mainly alcohol of the S-(+)-configuration with a high enantiomeric excess (ee = 99%) was obtained. The opposite enantiomer was obtained in bioreduction with the apple and parsley. Racemic indan-1-ol was oxidized by all catalysts. The best result was obtained for the Jerusalem artichoke: Over 50% conversion was observed after 1 h, and the enantiomeric excess of unreacted R-(–)-indan1-ol was 100%.
