Abstract
The reactions of FeCl3·3H2O and 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-5,6-dihydro-1,3-oxazine (N-O) as a bidentate O, N donor ligand afforded a five-coordinated iron(III) complex, [Fe(N-O) 2Cl], with a distorted trigonal bipyramidal configuration. The complex [Fe(N-O)2Cl] was isolated as an air-stable crystalline solid and was fully characterized, including by single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. The complex [Fe(N-O)2Cl] shows very efficient reactivity in the oxidation of sulfides to their corresponding sulfoxides using urea hydrogen peroxide (UHP) as the oxidant at room temperature under air. To get an insight into the electronic structure of the complex, the experimental studies have been accompanied...

Abstract
A mononuclear mixed ligand complex of iron, [FeIII(N-OPh-sal)(acac)EtOH], where Hacac and N-HOPh-Hsal denote acetylacetone and N-hydroxyphenyl-salicylideneamine, respectively, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, spectral studies and X-ray crystallography. The catalytic system containing this complex and urea hydrogen peroxide as oxidizing agent was used to selectively oxidize a range of sulfides to the corresponding sulfoxides in good yields under mild conditions. The electronic spectra of the catalytic system were applied to explore reactivity and stability of the catalyst during sulfide oxidation reactions and to examine the nature of active species, as well. ©...
