The enantioselective epoxidation of olefin by Mn^(II)(R,R-PMCP)(OTf)2, H_(2)O_(2) and H_(2)SO_(4) was explored by DFT calculations and experiments.

Theoretical results suggest that [Mn^(V)(O)(R,R-PMCP)(SO_(4))]^(+) species with a triplet ground spin state serves as the active species for the olefin epoxidation. It can be generated by the H_(2)SO_(4) assisted O-O heterolysis of Mn^(III)(OOH) species. Mn^(III)-persulfate is also involved in this system, but it cannot promote the olefin epoxidation directly, preferring instead to transform into Mn^(V)(O). Actually, the asymmetric epoxidation reactions with H_(2)O_(2)/H_(2)SO_(4) or Oxone provide similar enantioselectivity in the presence of manganese catalyst. These observations further support the transformation of Mn^(III)-persulfate to Mn^(V)(O) species.展开更多

Hill, Finke, Neumann reported respectively that transition metal mono-substituted heteropolyanions PW;M, P;W;M and SiW;Ru have an ability to catalyze the epoxidation of olefin. We discovered that trisubstituted Keggin heteropolyanions have this property too. This paper describes the synthesis, properties of α- and β-[SiW;O;Co;(H;O);];and its catalysis for the epoxidation of olefin by PhIO.展开更多

Traditional preparation methods often rely on hazardous oxidants or extensive fossil fuel-powered thermal catalytic systems, resulting in significant waste production and CO_(2) emissions. Solar-driven photo(electro)chemistry is an emerging option for achieving the environmentally-friendly synthesis of epoxides. In this review, we firstly summarize the fundamental understanding of epoxidation reactions among various systems, including molecular catalysis, heterogeneous thermal catalysis and electrocatalysis. Then, we focus on the recent advances in the synthesis of epoxides achieved by photo(electro)chemical approaches. This review is concluded by the rational design of photoelectrochemical systems towards efficient epoxide synthesis.展开更多

All compounds were fully characterized by single-crystal XRD, powder XRD, elemental analysis, TGA, and FT-IR spectroscopy. The hybrid zinc vanadates (1-3) and cobalt vanadate (4) exhibit interesting 2D folded structures and the hybrid copper vanadate (5) presents a 1D chain configuration. All compounds can catalyze olefin epoxidation reactions when using TBHP (TBHP = tert-butyl hydroperoxide) as an oxidant in acetonitrile. The introduction of transition metal ions into tetravanadate cores not only improved the catalytic activity but also fulfilled the heterogeneous catalytic behavior. 1-5 all exhibit extraordinary efficiency in converting olefins to the corresponding epoxides with high conversion and selectivity (particularly, cony. up to 97.1%, sele. up to 100% for 1 ). Leaching test was also carried out to prove the heterogeneous behavior.展开更多
