This work demonstrates
that non-redox metal ions as Lewis acid can sharply improve the oxygen
transfer efficiency of a manganese(II) catalyst having non-heme ligand.
In the absence of Lewis acid, oxidation of manganese(II) complex will
generate the known di-μ-oxo-bridged dinuclear Mn2(III,IV) core which is
very sluggish for olefin epoxidation. Adding non-redox metal ions causes
the dissociation of the dinuclear core, leading to sharply improve its
oxygen transfer efficiency.
