Stable organic nitroxyl radicals are an important class of catalysts for oxidation reactions, but their wide applications are hindered by their steric hinderance, high cost, complex operation, and separation procedures. Herein, NO2 in DMSO is shown to effectively catalyze the aerobic oxidative cleavage of C(OH)?C bonds to form a carboxylic group, and NO2 was generated in situ by decomposition of nitrates. A diverse range of secondary alcohols were selectively converted into acids in excellent yields in this transition-metal-free system without any additives. Preliminary results also indicate its applicability to depolymerize recalcitrant macromolecular lignin. Detail studies revealed that NO2 from nitrates promoted the reaction, and NO2 served as hydrogen acceptor and radical initiator for the tandem oxidative reaction.

Two biomimetic iron(II) benzoylformate complexes, [LFeII(BF) 2] (2) and [LFeII(NO3)(BF)] (3) (L is 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline and BF is monoanionic benzoylformate), have been synthesized from an iron(II)-dichloro complex [LFeIICl 2] (1). All the iron(II) complexes have been structurally and spectroscopically characterized. The iron(II) center in 2 is coordinated by a bidentate NN ligand (2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) and two monoanionic benzoylformates to form a distorted octahedral coordination geometry. One of the benzoylformates binds to the iron in 2 via both carboxylate oxygens but the other one binds in a chelating bidentate fashion via one carboxylate oxygen and the keto oxygen. On the other hand, the iron(II) center in 3 is ligated by one NN ligand, one bidentate nitrate, and one monoanionic chelating benzoylformate. Both iron(II) benzoylformate complexes exhibit the facial NNO donor environment in their solid-state structures. Complexes 2 and 3 are stable in noncoordinating solvents under an inert atmosphere, but react with dioxygen under ambient conditions to undergo oxidative decarboxylation of benzoylformate to benzoate in high yields. Evidence for the formation of an iron(IV)-oxo intermediate upon oxidative decarboxylation of benzoylformate was obtained by interception and labeling experiments. The iron(II) benzoylformate complexes represent the functional models of α-keto acid dependent oxygenases.

A metal-free, biomimetic catalytic protocol for the cyclization of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)amides to the corresponding 2-oxazolines (4,5-dihydrooxazoles), promoted by the 1,3,5,2,4,6-triazatriphosphorine (TAP)-derived organocatalyst tris(o-phenylenedioxy)cyclotriphosphazene (TAP-1) has been developed. This approach requires less precatalyst compared to the reported relevant systems, with respect to the phosphorus atom (the maximum turnover number (TON) ～30), and exhibits a broader substrate scope and higher functional-group tolerance, providing the functionalized 2-oxazolines with retention of the configuration at the C(4) stereogenic center of the 2-oxazolines. Widely accessible β-amino alcohols can be used in this approach, and the cyclization of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)amides provides the desired 2-oxazolines in up to 99% yield. The mechanism of the reaction was studied by monitoring the reaction using spectral and analytical methods, whereby an 18O-labeling experiment furnished valuable insights. The initial step involves a stoichiometric reaction between the substrate and TAP-1, which leads to the in situ generation of the catalyst, a catechol cyclic phosphate, as well as to a pyrocatechol phosphate and two possible active intermediates. The dehydrative cyclization was also successfully conducted on the gram scale.

The ability of two iron(II) complexes, [(TpPh2)FeII(benzilate)] (1) and [(TpPh2)(FeII)2(NPP)3] (2) (TpPh2 = hydrotris(3,5-diphenylpyrazol-1-yl)borate, NPP-H = α-isonitrosopropiophenone), of a monoanionic facial N3 ligand in the O2-dependent oxidation of oximes is reported. The mononuclear complex 1 reacts with dioxygen to decarboxylate the iron-coordinated benzilate. The oximate-bridged dinuclear complex (2), which contains a high-spin (TpPh2)FeII unit and a low-spin iron(II)–oximate unit, activates dioxygen at the high-spin iron(II) center. Both the complexes exhibit the oxidative transformation of oximes to the corresponding carbonyl compounds with the incorporation of one oxygen atom from dioxygen. In the oxidation process, the oxime units are converted to nitric oxide (NO) or nitroxyl (HNO). The iron(II)–benzilate complex (1) reacts with oximes to afford HNO, whereas the iron(II)–oximate complex (2) generates NO. The results described here suggest that the oxidative transformation of oximes to NO/HNO follows different pathways depending upon the nature of co-ligand/reductant.
