The catalytic oxidation of ethylene to acetaldehyde using the rhodium(III) chloride complexes, [Formula: see text] in the presence of iron(III) has been studied kinetically in aqueous acid solutions under mild conditions.[Formula: see text] is inactive due to the absence of a coordinated water (hydroxide) ligand. Solutions containing tetrachloro species are generally more reactive than those containing pentachloro species because of the presence of a greater concentration of highly reactive hydroxy species. The neutral and cationic chloro-complexes are inactive due to their substitution inertness.

In the presence of iron(III) or other oxidants, aqueous acid chloride solutions of RhCl5(H2O)2− catalyze under mild conditions the oxidation of ethylene to acetaldehyde. The kinetics of the reaction measured by gas-uptake techniques indicate the presence of both ethylene dependent and independent paths. Besides fully protonated anions, hydroxy species such as RhCl5 (OH)3− and RhCl4(OH)(H2O)2−, although present in very small concentrations, are significantly reactive towards ethylene. A mechanism, based on that postulated for a similar palladium(II) system in the well-known Wacker process, is presented. Under our reaction conditions the slow steps in the rhodium system involve formation of π-complexes in the ethylene dependent paths and the formation of tetrachlororhodate(III) complexes in the ethylene independent paths. Iron(III) regenerates the rhodium(III) catalyst by oxidation of the rhodium(I). Rate constants are estimated for the various reaction paths.

A variety of substituted 2-methylpyrroles (3-8) were oxidized using the metalloporphyrin catalysts iron(III) meso-tetra(2,6-dichloro-3-sulphonatophenyl)-β-octachloroporphyrin chloride 1 and iron(III) meso-tetra(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-β-octachloroporphyrin chloride 2 under very mild conditions. Treatment of the resulting allylic alcohols 3a-8a with α-free pyrroles 9 and 10 resulted in a very efficient synthesis of the corresponding dipyrromethanes 3b-8b and 3c-8c. Furthermore, the above allylic alcohols when treated with furfurylamine produced the novel (2-furylmethyl)-2-pyrrolylmethylamines 3d-8d.Key words: catalytic oxidation, metalloporphyrins, pyrroles, dipyrromethanes, polyhalogenated porphyrins.

Isoxazolineγ-lactams are prepared starting from the regioisomeric cycloadducts of benzonitrile oxide to theN-alkyl 2-azanorbornenes taking advantage of the efficient catalytic oxidation by RuO4. The reduction of the amide groups is easily conducted in the presence of LiAlH4under mild conditions, which allowed for the chemoselective reduction of the amide moiety followed by ring opening to afford the desired conformationally locked isoxazoline-carbocyclic aminols, as valuable intermediates for nucleoside synthesis.
