The epoxidation of turpentine (technical α-pinene), 3-carene, and limonene with aqueous hydrogen peroxide was studied in a new catalytic system employing manganese sulfate, salicylic acid, sodium bicarbonate, and acetonitrile, as a polar solvent. The proposed approach makes it possible to carry out a “chemical separation” of turpentine components, yielding valuable individual derivatives of monoterpenes without the need to isolate individual monoterpene reagents. Specific methods have been developed for the production of α-pinene epoxide, 3-carene epoxide, limonene diepoxide, as well as for two related compounds: 3-carene-5-one and 3-carene-2,5-dione.

The aminocarbonylation of various alkenyl and (hetero)aryl iodides was carried out using tropane-based amines of biological importance, such as 8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-one (nortropinone) and 3α-hydroxy-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane (nortropine) as N-nucleophile. Using iodoalkenes, the two nucleophiles were selectively converted to the corresponding amide in the presence of Pd(OAc)2/2 PPh3 catalysts. In the presence of several iodo(hetero)arenes, the application of the bidentate Xantphos was necessary to produce the target compounds selectively. The new carboxamides of varied structure, formed in palladium-catalyzed aminocarbonylation reactions, were isolated and fully characterized. In this way, a novel synthetic method has been developed for the producing of N-acylnortropane derivatives of biological importance.

In recent years, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have received increasing attention as selective oxidation catalysts and supports for their construction. In this short review paper, we survey recent findings concerning use of MOFs in heterogeneous liquid-phase selective oxidation catalysis with the green oxidant–aqueous hydrogen peroxide. MOFs having outstanding thermal and chemical stability, such as Cr(III)-based MIL-101, Ti(IV)-based MIL-125, Zr(IV)-based UiO-66(67), Zn(II)-based ZIF-8, and some others, will be in the main focus of this work. The effects of the metal nature and MOF structure on catalytic activity and oxidation selectivity are analyzed and the mechanisms of hydrogen peroxide activation are discussed. In some cases, we also make an attempt to analyze relationships between liquid-phase adsorption properties of MOFs and peculiarities of their catalytic performance. Attempts of using MOFs as supports for construction of single-site catalysts through their modification with heterometals will be also addressed in relation to the use of such catalysts for activation of H2O2. Special attention is given to the critical issues of catalyst stability and reusability. The scope and limitations of MOF catalysts in H2O2-based selective oxidation are discussed.
