Cobalt , catalysis

Oxidation catalysts are either metals that chemisorb oxygen readily, such as platinum or silver, or transition metal oxides that are able to give and take oxygen by reason of their having several possible oxidation states. Ethylene oxide is formed with silver, ammonia is oxidized with platinum, and silver or copper in the form of metal screens catalyze the oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde. Cobalt catalysis is used in the following oxidations butane to acetic acid and to butyl-hydroperoxide, cyclohexane to cyclohexylperoxide, acetaldehyde to acetic acid and toluene to benzoic acid. PdCh-CuCb is used for many liquid-phase oxidations and V9O5 combinations for many vapor-phase oxidations.

Burdo and Seitz reported in 1975 the mechanism of the formation of a cobalt peroxide complex as the important intermediate leading to luminescence in the cobalt catalysis of the luminol CL reaction [116]. Delumyea and Hartkopf reported metal catalysis of the luminol reaction in chromatographic solvent systems in 1976 [117], while Yurow and Sass [118] reported on the structure-CL correlation for various organic compounds in the luminol-peroxide reaction. 

Cobalt catalysis of chain generation was found in the system styrene-dioxygen-acetyla-cetonate cobalt(II) [169]. Free radicals are generated in this system with the rate...

The total yield of 2-vinylpyridine formed from 2-methylpyridine can be as high as 90%. 2-Vinylpyridine may also be obtained in almost quantitative yields by heating 2-alkylaminopyridine derivatives (which are directly available by cobalt catalysis) with a supported (e.g., AI2O3) alkali metal hydroxide [Eq.(8) R = R = alkyl, cyloalkyl, etc., RR N = heterocycle] (76SZP14399 78MI1).

Iron-catalyzed alkenylation of Grignard reagents was used by Cahiez and Avedissian to prepare the pheromone of Argyroplace Leucotetra in three steps from l,2-( )-dichloro-ethene (Scheme 63). Two successive alkenylation reactions, the first involving a cobalt catalysis, the second an iron catalysis, allow one to obtain the desired product in 45% overall yield.
