Abstract
The selective functionalization of saturated hydrocarbons which requires the activation of unactivated carbon-hydrogen bonds remains one of the most intriguing subjects of modern chemistry despite the great deal of research interest over the past two decades. The economic and practical functionalization of alkanes is expected to be among the major objectives for the end of this century. Much progress has been achieved in homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, in both the liquid and gas phases1,2. Catalytic oxidation of alkanes has been explored using various oxidants. Those conducted with dioxygen under mild conditions are especially rewarding goals2. Amongst the many approaches to the problem, one is based on mimicking nature. Nature’s ability to use dioxygen to oxidize different C-H bonds in a selective manner is attracting chemists from different areas, including bio-, inorganic and organic chemistry. Nature does its job by using enzymes, referred to as oxygenases, which catalyze the oxidation process by directly inserting one or both atoms of dioxygen into the organic substrate giving mainly hydroxyl groups3.
