Catalytic oxidation of benzene by mononuclear copper(II) complexes with a bis(imidazolyl)methane ligand
Catalytic oxidation of benzene under mild conditions is one of the most challenging reactions in synthetic chemistry. In order to develop a hydroxylation catalyst for benzene, we have designed and synthesized new copper(II) complexes with the bidentate ligand bis(1,4,5-trimethyl-2-imidazolyl)methane (Me6bim), [Cu(Me6bim)X2] (X = Cl, Br). This ligand provides a reaction space which can be easily...
متن کاملA new copper-oxo player in methane oxidation.
I n this issue of PNAS, Schoonheydt, Solomon, and coworkers (1) definitively characterize the structure of the Cu-ZSM-5 site that oxidizes methane to methanol. With the successful correlation of a specific copper-oxy structure to such reactivity, the importance of this work extends beyond hydrocarbon oxidation on zeolites. This breakthrough potentially has farreaching implications in both the f...
متن کاملSynthesis of single-site copper catalysts for methane partial oxidation.
Cu-Exchanged zeolites are known as active materials for methane oxidation to methanol. However, understanding of the formation of Cu active species during synthesis, dehydration and activation is fragmented and rudimentary. We show here how a synthesis protocol guided by insight in the ion exchange elementary steps leads to highly uniform Cu species in mordenite (MOR).
متن کاملMethanobactin and the Link between Copper and Bacterial Methane Oxidation.
Methanobactins (mbs) are low-molecular-mass (<1,200 Da) copper-binding peptides, or chalkophores, produced by many methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs). These molecules exhibit similarities to certain iron-binding siderophores but are expressed and secreted in response to copper limitation. Structurally, mbs are characterized by a pair of heterocyclic rings with associated thioamide group...
متن کاملMethane oxidation by Nitrosomonas europaea.
Methane inhibited NH4+ utilization by Nitrosomonas europaea with a Ki of 2mM. O2 consumption was not inhibited. In the absence of NH4+, or with hydrazine as reductant, methane caused nearly a doubling in the rate of O2 uptake. The stimulation was abolished by allylthiourea, a sensitive inhibitor of the oxidation of NH4+. Analysis revealed that methanol was being formed in these experiments, wit...
