Abstract

-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP), the tetranuclear complexes initially exhibit high selectivity toward aldehyde formation, while the polymeric species achieve superior overall conversion. The results highlight a fundamental trade-off between catalytic activity and selectivity, strongly modulated by catalyst nuclearity and alkoxo ligand length. The insights gained provide valuable design principles for developing vanadium-based assemblies with tunable properties.
