An iron catalyst for oxidation of alkyl C-H bonds showing enhanced selectivity for methylenic sites

Many are called but few are chosen: A nonheme iron complex catalyzes the oxidation of alkyl C[BOND]H bonds by using H2O2 as the oxidant, showing an enhanced selectivity for secondary over tertiary C[BOND]H bonds (see scheme)

Financial support by the European Research Council for project ERC-29910, the MCYT of Spain through project CTQ200908464/BQU to M.C., and Consolider Ingenio/CSD2010-00065. I.P. and M.C thank the MICINN and Generalitat de Catalunya, respectively, for Ph.D. grants. M.C. and X.R. thank the Generalitat de Catalunya for 2009SGR637 and ICREA Acad mia Awards. Catexcel is acknowledged for a generous gift of tritosyltriazacyclononane
