Abstract
A mononuclear mixed ligand complex of iron, [FeIII(N-OPh-sal)(acac)EtOH], where Hacac and N-HOPh-Hsal denote acetylacetone and N-hydroxyphenyl-salicylideneamine, respectively, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, spectral studies and X-ray crystallography. The catalytic system containing this complex and urea hydrogen peroxide as oxidizing agent was used to selectively oxidize a range of sulfides to the corresponding sulfoxides in good yields under mild conditions. The electronic spectra of the catalytic system were applied to explore reactivity and stability of the catalyst during sulfide oxidation reactions and to examine the nature of active species, as well. ©...

Abstract
Some cis-dioxomolybdenum (VI) complexes with tridentate Schiff base ligands derived from salicylaldehyde and aminophenols, aminoalcohol or o-aminobenzenethiol were examined as catalysts for epoxidation of different aliphatic and aromatic olefins, with tert-butyl hydroperoxide as oxidant. All complexes exhibited high activity and selectivity for epoxidation of aliphatic substrates during a short time period (95% conversion of cyclooctene after 30 min). The epoxide yield increased with the nucleophilic character of olefin. The catalysts activation strongly depends on the reaction temperature and nature of the solvent. Epoxidation of olefins by these catalysts is inhibited by ligands or...

Abstract
Catalytic studies were performed to develop a simple oxidation system for olefins and sulfides using manganese(III)-tridentate Schiff base complex, Mn(N-OPh-sal)(acac)(EtOH) (N-HOPh-Hsal = N-hydroxyphenyl-salicyldienamine, Hacac = acetylacetone), and urea-hydrogen peroxide (UHP) as terminal oxidant. Conversions up to 90% for olefins at 0 °C and 96% for sulfides at room temperature as well as sulfoxide selectivity up to 73% were achieved in short reaction times. Also this study confirms the accelerating effect of strong π-donor axial ligands such as imidazole (ImH) on the oxidation reactions. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
