title: NiII(TPA) as an efficient catalyst for alkane hydroxylation with m-CPBA.
abstract: A simple Ni(II)(TPA) complex [TPA = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine] has been demonstrated to act as an efficient turnover catalyst for alkane hydroxylation with m-CPBA (m-chloroperbenzoic acid), in which contribution of a NiO(+) (nickel-oxo) type active oxygen species is suggested.
