The photochemical decomposition of t -butyl hydroperoxide by light of wave-length 3130 Å has been investigated in three solvents. Reaction mechanisms are elucidated by consideration of the products and the quantum yields of decomposition. In carbon tetrachloride a chain reaction occurs in which the quantum yield of 3.2 at 20° C increases to 5.3 at 50° C. The main products are t -butyl alcohol and oxygen with smaller amounts of acetone, water and compounds arising from the oxidation of methyl radicals. The same series of reactions takes place in n -hexane, but superimposed are oxidation reactions involving solvent molecules which ultimately lead to the formation of alcohols. The quantum yield in this solvent is 3.9 and independent of temperature. When the peroxide is irradiated in dioxan solution immediate hydrogenation of the radicals produced in the primary photo-chemical act prevents the formation of reaction chains and the quantum yield is unity. The interaction of the radicals with solvent molecules is such that some of the etheric oxygen of the dioxan is transformed into alcoholic hydroxyl during the course of the reaction, and the fragmentation of dioxan gives formaldehyde Experiments with a dioxan solution using light of wave-length 2450 to 2800 Å show no fundamental change in the mode of decomposition of the peroxide, but an increase in concentration of the products of dioxan decomposition indicates a more vigorous attack by the radicals on the solvent.

Fluorous biphasic catalysis (FBC) is a relatively new concept for homogeneous catalysis where the fluorocarbon soluble catalyst resides in a separate phase from the substrate and products. Therefore, separation of the catalyst and the products occurs by a facile decantation process. In this contribution, we present the synthesis of new Rf-fluoroponytailed synthons, 2-iodo-1-perfluorooctyl-3-propanol (1), 3-perfluorooctyl-1-propanol (2), and 3-perfluorooctyl-1-iodopropane (3), a variety of new Rf-fluoroponytailed ligands (4–8), with starting amines, 1,4,7-triazacyclononane, bis-picolylamine, and bis-picolylaminoethylenediamine, as well as new RfMn2+ and RfCo2+ fluoroponytailed carboxylate synthons, [Mn(O2C(CH2)2C8F17)2] (9), and [Co(O2C(CH2)2C8F17)2] (10), where Rf is C8F17. The only totally perfluoralkane soluble ligand we found was 1,4,7-tris-N-(4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,11,11,11-heptadecafluoroundecyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (RfTACN, 4), and it was utilized, along with synthons 9 and 10, to generate in situ RfMn2+–RfTACN and RfCo2+–RfTACN complexes as precatalysts for functionalization of alkanes and alkenes. We will demonstrate that indeed this novel FBC approach for the separation of the precatalyst from the substrates and (or) products is viable for oxidation of alkanes and alkenes in the presence of the necessary oxidants, tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP), and O2 gas. We will also show that these oxidation reactions occur via an autoxidation mechanism under our FBC conditions, while using electron spin resonance (ESR) techniques to ascertain the redox chemistry occurring with the starting mononuclear RfMn2+–RfTACN complex.Key words: fluorous solvents, biphasic catalysis, alkane/alkene oxidation.
