A synergistic strategy involving ionic liquid (IL) and Cu- or Fe-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been developed for the selective oxidation of anethole with H₂O₂ and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). Under the optimum conditions, 74.8%–91.5% conversion of substrate and 92.1%–94.6% selectivity for anisaldehyde were obtained over Cu-BTC-1 (BTC: benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate) with the aid of 5.0 mol% [C₁₂mim]Cl using aqueous H₂O₂ as the oxygen source. In contrast, Fe(PMA) (PMA: pyromellitate) nanorods provided up to 84.0% yield of 4-methoxyphenylacetone in the presence of 5.0 mol% [C₄mim][Cys] by using TBHP oxidant. Notably, amphiphilic [C₁₂mim]Cl and multifunctional [C₄mim][Cys] are favorable for the improved reactivity and good reusability of Cu-BTC-1 or Fe(PMA) owing to the synergistic effects of Cu-BTC-1/[C₁₂mim]Cl or Fe(PMA)/[C₄mim][Cys] nano/submicro-structures fabricated in-situ. In particular, nanoscale stacking of [C₄mim][Cys] on Fe(PMA) can be directly demonstrated by TEM. In-depth understanding of the reaction mechanism can be achieved using XRD, FT-IR, DRUV-vis and UV–vis techniques.
