Simple and Practical Aerobic Oxidation of Alcohols Catalyzed by a (<i>μ</i>-Oxo)tetraruthenium Cluster

Abstract: A (μ-oxo)tetraruthenium cluster showed high catalytic activity for a simple and practical aerobic oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones under 1 atm of O 2 or air. After the reaction, this cluster catalyst was recovered from the reaction mixture, and we believe that this (μ-oxo)tetraruthenium cluster acts as an active catalytic species throughout the reaction.

“…Similar results (low yield of intermediate aldehyde) has been reported for oxidation of cylcohexanemethanol and other aliphatic alcohols. 36 Increasing the amount of catalyst (decreasing S/C ratio) does not always result in higher conversion (as observed for 1-phenyl-2-ethanol, entries 2 and 3 in Table S4). However, keeping the S/C ratio constant and increasing the amount of PTC (higher PTC/C ratio) lead to higher conversions (compare entries 2 and 4 in Table S4).…”

“…At high PTC concentration, the presence of excess catalytically active species and faster kinetic of the second oxidation step to carboxylic acid results in lower overall yield of aldehyde (entry 3). Similar results (low yield of intermediate aldehyde) has been reported for oxidation of cylcohexanemethanol and other aliphatic alcohols …”

“…Our reported catalyst showed outstanding results for aliphatic amine (entry 6), which are generally less reactive and are reported to give low yields. 37,38 Similar to the alcohol oxidation reaction, the C−C double bond remains intact and oxidation of the nitrile group occurred selectively with the Ru@AAO catalyst for the oxidation of geranylamine (entry 7). Heteroatomic amines such as 2thiophene methylamine and indoline oxidized to desirable products under similar reaction conditions (entries 8 and 9).…”

“…[5] Apart from the well-investigated nitrogen-based ligands, few organometallic complexes with phosphines have been applied to the oxidation of alcohols. [6] For example, palladium-catalyzed oxidations with tertiary phosphines, which have been used extensively in palladium-catalyzed crosscoupling reactions, are quite limited. [7] Clearly, the air sensitivity of most phosphines stays in sharp contrast to such ap-tion.…”
