摘要
Bis(2,2;6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato)cobalt(II) (Co(thd)(2)), a beta-diketonate prepared in a simple one-step procedure, is an excellent catalyst for aerobic epoxidation and Mukaiyama-Isayama hydroperoxysilylation of unactivated alkenes. For hydroperoxysilylation, Co(thd)(2) is superior to Co(acac)(2) and can catalyse oxidation of cyclic alkenes in excellent yield. Chiral beta-diketonate or keto iminato catalysts failed to catalyse this reaction in an enantioselective manner and a free radical mechanism consistent with this observation is proposed. Hydroperoxysilylation of cyclohex-1-enylmethanol by Co(thd)(2) followed by addition of a ketone/TsOH provides a simple one-pot procedure for the synthesis of spiro-1,2,4-trioxane antimalarials.
