Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the oxidation of alkenes and alcohols using a Mn salt, pyridine-2-carboxylic acid, and a ketone, revealing that a single reactive species is responsible for both reactions.
- The kinetic isotope effect (KIE) measured for benzyl alcohol oxidation indicates a selective and highly reactive species, with a primary KIE value around 3.5, showing no dependence on substrate concentration.
- Selective oxygen labeling helps identify the source of oxygen in the oxidation process, supporting the involvement of highly reactive manganese species instead of alkylperoxy or hydroperoxy species.
