Continuous Bioinspired Oxidation of Sulfides

Oxidation of organic sulfides by vanadium haloperoxidase model complexes.

In addition to halide oxidation, the vanadium haloperoxidases are capable of oxidizing sulfides to sulfoxides. Four vanadium complexes with tripodal amine ligands, K[VO(O(2))(heida)] (1), VO(2)(bpg) (2), K[VO(2)(ada)] (3), and K(2)[VO(O(2))(nta)] (4), previously shown to perform bromide oxidation (Colpas, G. J.; Hamstra, B. J.; Kampf, J. W.; Pecoraro, V. L. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1996, 118, 3469-347...

Oxidation Proof Silicate Surface Coating On Iron Sulfides

Preparation and Investigation of Spinel-structured FeCo2O4 Nanoparticles as an Efficient Catalyst for Oxidation of Sulfides

We report the preparation and characterization of spinel-structured FeCo2O4 nanoparticles for the efficient and selective oxidation of sulfides. The as-prepared FeCo2O4 nanoparticles were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). According to TEM images, the size of the...

Selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides by a vanadium-based catalyst using 30% hydrogen peroxide

The vanadium-based catalyst, acts as a homogeneous catalyst for the selective oxidation of various kinds of sulfides with 30% aqueous H2O2. Vanadium-based catalyst was successfully used as the oxygen source for the oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides for the first time. The sulfoxides were obtained in a good way to high yields without any detectable over-oxidation to sulfones under normal condi...

Efficient oxidation of sulfides using a molybdenum(VI)–dioxo complex containing an benzimidazole ligand

For the first time, dioxomolybdenum(VI) complex with the general formula [MoO2L2] containing a N-O bidentate ligands (HL=2-(o-aminophenyl)- benzimidazole) has been used for the oxidation of sulfides. Elemental analyses (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen), FT-IR and Uv-Visble spectra and 1HNMR analysis agree well with the proposed stoicheiometry of the complex [MoO...
