Direct synthesis of cyclic carbonates from olefins and CO2 catalyzed by a MoO2(acac)2-quaternary ammonium salt system

TL;DR: In this article, a highly efficient synthesis of cyclic carbonates from olefins and CO2 has been achieved by the use of a molybdenyl acetylacetonate (MoO2(acac)2) -quaternary ammonium salt catalytic system with tertbutyl hydroperoxide as an oxidant through a one-pot multistep process.

The role of protons in cyclohexene oxidation with H2O2 catalysed by Ti(IV)-monosubstituted Keggin polyoxometalate

TL;DR: The effect of the number of protons in the Ti(IV)-monosubstituted Keggin polyoxometalate Na 5−−n H n PTiW 11 O 40 (n ǫ = 1-5; Ti-POM) on its catalytic behavior in cyclohexene (CyH) oxidation with aqueous H 2 O 2 in MeCN is reported as mentioned in this paper.

New Insights into the Mechanism of Hydroperoxide Activation by Investigation of Dynamic Processes in the Coordination Sphere of Seven-Coordinated Molybdenum Peroxo Complexes

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed theoretical study on the activation of CH3OOH at the model complex (NH3)2MoO(O2)2 including partial ligand dissociation and proton transfer from the hydroperoxide to one of the peroxo ligands is presented.

Epoxidation of soybean oil using a homogeneous catalytic system based on a molybdenum (VI) complex

TL;DR: In this article, the ability of bis(acetyl-acetonato)dioxo-molybdenum (VI) [MoO 2 (acac) 2 ] to catalyse the epoxidation of soybean oil in the presence of tert -butyl hydroperoxide as oxidizing agent has been investigated by quantitative 1 H NMR.
