- Proton chemical shift assignments in citrate and trimethyl citrate in chiral media
-
The citrate ion gives rise to four different methylene proton chemical shifts in the presence of (S)-lactate and Pr3+ Trimethyl citrate behaves similarly in the presence of (S)-2,2,2-trifluoro-l-(9-anthryl)ethanol. The four methylene shifts have been assigned in an absolute way by comparisons with those from the corresponding spectra of (2R,3R)-citrate-2-d and trimethyl (2R,3R)-citrate-2-d, respectively. The chemical shifts of the three methyl groups in trimethyl citrate in the presence of the anthryl shift reagent have also been assigned. Deuterium isotope effects on the proton chemical shifts of these molecules have been determined. In the absence of shift reagents these effects are mainly of the intrinsic type, but in their presence there are equilibrium perturbation contributions. The 1H NMR line widths and chemical shifts in the citrate-lactate-PrCl3 system depend strongly on the pH, spectrometer frequency, and temperature, with the best results obtained at room temperature pH ≈3.8, and a spectrometer frequency of 200 MHz.

- A Br?nsted acidic, ionic liquid containing, heteropolyacid functionalized polysiloxane network as a highly selective catalyst for the esterification of dicarboxylic acids
-
A Br?nsted acidic, ionic liquid containing, heteropolyanion functionalized polysiloxane network was formed by self-condensation of dodecatungstophosphoric acid and a zwitterionic organosilane precursor containing both imidazolinium and sulfonate groups. The resulting hybrid material POS-HPA-IL was investigated as a catalyst for the selective esterification of dicarboxylic acids.

- 1,3-Dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin as a Precatalyst for Activation of Carbonyl Functionality
-
Activation of carbonyl moiety is one of the most rudimentary approaches in organic synthesis and is crucial for a plethora of industrial-scale condensation reactions. In esterification and aldol condensation, which represent two of the most important reactions, the susceptibility of the carbonyl group to nucleophile attack allows the construction of a variety of useful organic compounds. In this context, there is a constant need for development of and improvement in the methods for addition-elimination reactions via activation of carbonyl functionality. In this paper, an advanced methodology for the direct esterification of carboxylic acids and alcohols, and for aldol condensation of aldehydes using widely available, inexpensive, and metal-free 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin under neat reaction conditions is reported. The method is air- and moisture-tolerant, allowing simple synthetic and isolation procedures for both reactions presented in this paper. The reaction pathway for esterification is proposed and a scale-up of certain industrially important derivatives is performed.

- Esterification of aryl/alkyl acids catalysed by n-bromosuccinimide under mild reaction conditions
-
N-halosuccinimides (NXSs) are well-known to be convenient, easily manipulable and low-priced halogenation reagents in organic synthesis. In the present work, N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) has been promoted as the most efficient and selective catalyst among the NXSs in the reaction of direct esterification of aryl and alkyl carboxylic acids. Comprehensive esterification of substituted benzoic acids, mono-, di- and tri-carboxy alkyl derivatives has been performed under neat reaction conditions. The method is metal-free, air- and moisture-tolerant, allowing for a simple synthetic and isolation procedure as well as the large-scale synthesis of aromatic and alkyl esters with yields up to 100%. Protocol for the recycling of the catalyst has been proposed.

-
A process for producing biofuels compounds directly from carboxylic acid esters recovered from a fermentation system is described. The process involves taking a fermentation broth that has been reduced to a dry powder containing free organic acids; reacting the carboxylic acid in the powder with an alcohol solvent under a CO2-containing atmosphere in substantial absence of any other acid catalyst at a reaction temperature and pressure that corresponds to supercritical, critical or near critical conditions for at least one of the alcohol or CO2 to synthesize an ester, then subjecting the ester to either hydrogenolysis or hydrogenation to form a biofuel.

- Sulfonated graphene as highly efficient and reusable acid carbocatalyst for the synthesis of ester plasticizers
-
Plasticizers are well known for their effectiveness in producing flexible plastics. The automotive, plastic and pharmaceutical industries, essential to a healthy economy, rely heavily on plasticizers to produce everything from construction materials to medical devices, cosmetics, children toys, food wraps, adhesives, paints, and 'wonder drugs'. Although H2SO4 is commonly used as commodity catalyst for plasticizer synthesis it is energy-inefficient, non-recyclable, and requires tedious separation from the homogeneous reaction mixture resulting in abundant non-recyclable acid waste. In this study, for the first time, we report an efficient synthesis of ester plasticizers (>90% yields) using sulfonated graphene (GSO3H) as an energy-efficient, water tolerant, reusable and highly active solid acid carbocatalyst. The hydrothermal sulfonation of reduced graphene oxide with fuming H2SO4 at 120°C for 3 days afforded GSO3H with remarkable acid activity as demonstrated by 31P magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy. The superior catalytic performance of GSO3H over traditional homogeneous acids, Amberlyst-15, and acidic ionic liquids has been attributed to the presence of highly acidic and stable sulfonic acid groups within the two dimensional graphene domain, which synergistically work for high mass transfer in the reaction. Furthermore, the preliminary experimental results indicate that GSO3H is quite effective as a catalyst in the esterification of oleic and salicylic acid and thus may pave the way for its broad industrial applications in the near future.

- ZrOCl2·8H2O: An efficient, cheap and reusable catalyst for the esterification of acrylic acid and other carboxylic acids with equimolar amounts of alcohols
-
Esterifications of carboxylic acids with equimolar amount of alcohols could be efficiently catalyzed by ZrOCl2·8H2O. Acrylate esters were obtained in good yields under solvent-free conditions at ambient temperature. The esterification of other carboxylic acids with alcohols also proceeded at ambient temperature or at 50°C to afford esters in high yields. If the esterification was performed in toluene under azeotropic reflux conditions to remove water, both the catalytic activity of ZrOCl 2·8H2O and the rate of esterification could be increased greatly. Furthermore, in the present catalytic system, the esters could be easily separated from the reaction mixtures and the catalyst could be easily recovered and reused.
