| Sumario: | Site-selective oxidation of aliphatic C–H bonds is a powerful synthetic tool because it enables rapid build-up of product complexity and diversity from simple precursors. Besides the poor reactivity of alkyl C–H bonds, the main challenge in this reaction consists in differentiating between the multiple similar sites present in most organic molecules. Herein, a manganese oxidation catalyst equipped with two 18-benzo-6-crown ether receptors has been employed in the oxidation of the long chain tetradecane-1,14-diamine. 1H-NMR studies evidence simultaneous binding of the two protonated amine moieties to the crown ether receptors. This recognition has been used to pursue site-selective oxidation of a methylenic site, using hydrogen peroxide as oxidant in the presence of carboxylic acids as co-ligands. Excellent site-selectivity towards the central methylenic sites (C6 and C7) is observed, overcoming selectivity parameters derived from polar deactivation by simple amine protonation and selectivity observed in the oxidation of related monoprotonated amines |
