Resumen

The direct oxidation of benzene into phenol using
molecular oxygen at very mild temperatures can be promoted in the
presence of the copper complex Tp^Br3Cu(NCMe) in the homogeneous
phase in the presence of ascorbic acid as the source of protons and
electrons. The stoichiometric nature, relative to copper, of this
transformation prompted a thorough DFT study in order to understand
the reaction pathway. As a result, the dinuclear species Tp^Br3CuII(μ-O•)(μ-OH)Cu^IITp^Br3is proposed as the relevant structure which
is responsible for activating the arene C−H bond leading to phenol formation.
