• Olefin oxidation by an oxo-bridged diiron(III) complex and H2O2.
• cis-Dihydroxylation and epoxidations of olefins under substrate limiting condition.
• Enhanced catalytic activity in presence of acetic acid.
• Substrate dependent selectivity of epoxide/cis-diols.
Room temperature oxidation of olefins catalysed by a symmetrical (μ-oxo)(μ-hydroxo)diiron(III) complex (1) based on the amino pyridyl ligand bpmen (bpmen = N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-bis(2-pyridyl methyl)ethane-1,2-diamine) with hydrogen peroxide under the conditions of limiting substrate is described. Excellent substrate conversions have been achieved under ambient reaction conditions. The olefin oxidation efficacy of the 1/H2O2 system has been found to get improved in presence of acetic acid. The catalytic system has been shown to oxidise electron-deficient olefins to the corresponding cis-diols, while epoxidation is favoured in case of electron-rich olefins. The μ-oxo diiron(III) core of the catalyst 1 has been found be regenerated after the catalytic turnovers. Addition of a second batch of substrate and oxidant at the end of the olefin oxidation results in the formation of almost identical amounts of epoxides/diols. Moreover, the regenerated catalyst exhibits a significantly higher preference towards the oxidation of electron-deficient olefins.
