The Pt(ii)-catalyzed Baeyer–Villiger oxidation of cyclohexanone with H2O2 in ionic liquids

Epoxidation and Baeyer–Villiger oxidation using hydrogen peroxide and a lipase dissolved in ionic liquids

“…for homogeneous Pt(II) complexes the stability of the catalyst improved in hydrophobic ionic liquid-water systems. 77 Also heterogeneous catalysts such as methyltrioxorhenium CH 3 ReO 3 , 78 or Sn-b-zeolite 79 were active in hydrophilic [BMIm] + [BF 4 ]for BV-oxidation. In addition, the beneficial influence of ILs on enzymatic oxidations with Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs) has been reported.…”

Baeyer–Villiger oxidation under Payne epoxidation conditions

“…3 Many activation methods involve the use of abundant Sn catalysts, the most efficient being Sn-zeolites. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Other metals used for the activation of hydrogen peroxide in the BV oxidation include Se, 18 Re, 19 Li and Ca borates, 20 Pt, [21][22][23] Pd, 24 Si polyoxometalates, 25 and Zr. 26 Metal-free methods also exist and make use of enzymes, 27 ionic liquids, 28 carboxylic acids, 29 phosphoric acids, 30,31 and bisflavins 32 to activate the peroxide.…”

Baeyer−Villiger Monooxygenases: More Than Just Green Chemistry

“…4 Now almost a century and a dozen years later, the development of the BV reaction is still going strong marked by quests for oxidants that are more chemoselective and efficient, 5 catalysis with transition metal complexes, and also the use of ionic liquids. 6 On the chemical aspects of BV oxidations, readers are referred to several key recent reviews. 7 The Criegee mechanism underscores the essence of the BV reaction in two steps (Figure 2).…”
