Homogeneous synthesis of hydroxyethyl acrylate catalyzed by organochromium(III) complexes: Kinetics and ligand effect

A manganese-based catalyst system for general oxidation of unactivated olefins, alkanes, and alcohols

“…Furthermore, picolinic acid derivatives have been used for (noble)metal-catalysed reactions in the fields of water oxidation, 25 photochemistry, 26,27 and others. 28–32…”

“…4,23,24 Furthermore, picolinic acid derivatives have been used for (noble)metal-catalysed reactions in the fields of water oxidation, 25 photochemistry, 26,27 and others. [28][29][30][31][32] As part of our ongoing efforts regarding the valorization of terminal aliphatic olefins, we recently reported a novel protocol for manganese-catalysed epoxidation of olefins. 14 Here, the addition of quinoline was crucial to obtain high selectivity towards the desired epoxide products.…”
