The compound [Fe-2(HPTB)([mu-OH)(NO3)(2)](NO3)(2).CH3OH.2H(2)O (1) containing a dinuclear iron(III) complex in which HPTB=N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-benzimidazolylmethyl)-2-hydroxo-1,3-diaminopropa ne catalyzes the oxidation of alkanes with hydrogen peroxide in acetonitrile solution at room temperature only if certain amino acids (pyrazine-2-carboxylic, pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic or picolinic acid) are added to the reaction mixture. Alkyl hydroperoxides are formed as main reaction products. The turnover numbers attain 140 for cyclohexane, 21 for ethane and four for methane oxidation. The oxidation proceeds non-stereoselectively and bond selectivity parameters are low which testifies the participation of hydroxyl radicals in alkane functionalization. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
