Non-redox metal ion promoted oxygen transfer by a non-heme manganese catalyst

Abstract: This work demonstrates that non-redox metal ions as Lewis acids can sharply improve the oxygen transfer efficiency of a manganese(II) catalyst having a non-heme ligand. In the absence of Lewis acid, oxidation of a manganese(II) complex will generate the known di-μ-oxo-bridged dinuclear Mn2(III,IV) core which is very sluggish for olefin epoxidation. Adding non-redox metal ions causes the dissociation of the dinuclear core, leading to sharp improvement in its oxygen transfer efficiency.

“…Clearly, the active intermediate for epoxidation in the presence of Al 3+ is different from that of using Mn(TPA)Cl 2 alone. 22 These electrochemical oxidation waves also indicate that TPA and BPMEN have similar electron donation ability and coordination structure around manganese(II) ions. Remarkably, there was no cis-stilbene epoxide formation.…”

“…Conversion of styrene was also promoted from 9.1% to 71.9%, and the yield of epoxystyrene increased to 45.1%. 22 This typical 16-line signal is highly characteristic of the mixed valent di-µ-oxobridged diamond core, Mn III -(µ-O) 2 -Mn IV , which has been reported in chemical oxidation or electrochemical process of various manganese(II) complexes. However, the required reaction time for electron-deficient linear olefins is much longer (8 h) than that of cyclo-olefins or electron-rich olefins (3.5 h), which leads to a lower selectivity because of Lewis-acid-catalyzed ring-opening of epoxide.…”
