For the first time, microwave (MW) irradiation was successfully applied to peroxidative cyclohexane oxidation catalyzed by a C-scorpionate complex, [FeCl2(Tpm)] (1; Tpm = hydrotris­(pyrazol-1-yl)­methane), providing a highly selective and fast eco-friendly procedure to produce a KA (cyclohexanol + c...
