Efficient oxidation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with H2O2 catalyzed by 5,10,15-triarylcorrolatoiron (IV) chloride in ionic liquids

Copper(i)-based oxidation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and product elucidation using vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopy and theoretical spectral calculations

Fluorinated 1,3,5-triazapentadienyl complexes of copper catalyze the oxidation PAHs to quinones using H₂O₂as an oxidant under mild conditions.

Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as an efficient catalyst for selective oxidation of benzylic and allylic C–H bonds to carbonyl compounds with tert-butyl hydroperoxide

Fe₃O₄ MNP as an eco-friendly catalyst was prepared, characterized and applied for oxidation of benzylic and allylic C–H bonds.

Direct oxidation of amines to nitriles in the presence of ruthenium-terpyridyl complex immobilized on ILs/SILP

Ru₂Cl₄(az-tpy)₂ was immobilized within a range of supported ionic liquids on silica. SILP operates as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst in oxidation of long chain linear primary amines to corresponding nitriles.

Biomimetic oxidation of pyrene and related aromatic hydrocarbons. Unexpected electron accepting abilities of pyrenequinones

We present a mild catalytic method to oxidize PAHs and, in particular, pyrene, and we characterize the electron accepting abilities of pyrenequinones both in gas phase and in solution.
