Fe(II) complexes with pentadentate ligands, including -heterocyclic carbene moieties, were prepared and electrostatically attached onto the perfluorinated surface of a mesoporous aluminosilicate. The heterogeneous catalysts were applied to the catalytic oxidation of cyclohexane and cyclohexene using HO as an oxidant in CHCN, demonstrating high performance and selectivity in alkane hydroxylation and cyclohexene epoxidation.
