Abstract

The functionalization of unactivated carbon-hydrogen bonds in saturated hydrocarbons has been investigated for both its synthetic and biological interest.[1] Catalytic oxidation of alkanes has been explored using several oxidants,[2] and those reactions with molecular oxygen under mild conditions[3] are especially rewarding goals. The oxidation of cyclohexane turns out to be the least efficient of all major industrial processes.[4]
