Article Description

Monomeric Mn , Co and Ni complexes of tris(2-pyridyl)phosphine (P(2-py) were synthesized through the reaction of the hydrated metal(II) chlorides with P(2-py) in near-quantitative yields. The solid-state structure of the Mn complex was determined by singlecrystal X-ray diffraction. All three complexes were tested as homogeneous catalysts for the oxidation of tetralin to α-tetralone with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant. The influences of temperature, solvent, catalyst molar ratio and time of the reaction on the catalyzed reactions were investigated. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2011.
