Aerobic oxidation of C(sp(3))-H bonds of 4,5-diazafluorene promoted by coordination.
We report a facile oxidation of the CH(2) group in a coordinated 4,5-diazafluorene (LH) ligand in [RuCl(2)(LH)(PPh(3))(2)] into a carbonyl group by air at ambient temperature, leaving the two PPh(3) ligands intact.
