In this study, we synthesized and characterized zeolite-encapsulated Fe(III) complexes containing piperazine-derived ligands. The catalytic activity of these complexes was tested in the partial oxidation of methane to methanol using O2 as a low-pressure oxidant. Values for methane conversion of up to 1.2% with methanol selectivity of up to 6.7% were obtained. The experimental data were compared with thermodynamic simulation results for the reaction that takes place as a basic principle, the minimization of Gibbs free energy.
