Abstract
We have carried out computational studies on the metal-mediated oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde using Pd(LSB)•3H2O, where LSB is the dianionic form of the Schiff base ligand N-{2-[(8-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methyleneamino]benzyl}-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide. With the aim of reducing the overall Gibbs energy of the global process, we have studied the replacement of hydroxymethoxymethyl by hydroxymethyl and aminomethyl groups at 2-position of the quinoline ring.
