Abstract:The synthesis of various cobalt(III) complexes bearing a quaterpyridine ligand with different alkylperoxo groups via an unconventional approach is reported. Under ambient conditions, the cobalt(III) tert-butylperoxo complex, [Co III -(OO t Bu)(qpy)(NCCH 3 )] 2 + (2) (qpy = 2,2':6',2'':6'',2'''-quaterpyridine) oxidizes various organic substrates (RH) and leads to the formation of other alkylperoxo complexes with the general formula, [Co III (OOR)(qpy2 (4), PhCHMe (5), PhCMe 2 (6), p-Br-PhCMe 2 (7), and p-NO 2 -… Show more
