Abstract

•Re(I) pyridyl-imine or amine complexes were synthesized and characterized.•Their catalytic activity towards cis-cyclooctene epoxidation was reported.•The oxidation of Re(I) complexes by tert-butyl hydroperoxide was investigated.

Re(I) carbonyl complexes containing pyridyl-imine or amine ligands have been synthesized and crystallographically characterized. Their catalytic activity for the cis-cyclooctene epoxidation with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant and the oxidation of these Re(I) complexes by TBHP have been investigated.
