- Fullerene soot and a fullerene nanodispersion as recyclable heterogeneous off-the-shelf photocatalysts
-
Metal-free heterogeneous photocatalysis, which requires no prior catalyst immobilization or chemical modification and can operate in green solvents, represents a highly-sought after, yet currently still underdeveloped, synthetic method. In this report we present a comparative study which aims to evaluate the use of unmodified fullerene soot and a fullerene nanodispersion as non-soluble and quasi-soluble carbon-based photocatalysts, respectively, for sulfide oxidation and other transformations using oxygen as an oxidant in ethanol. A wide range of sulfoxides were successfully prepared with good yields and chemoselectivity using a very low catalyst loading. The fullerene soot photocatalyst is easily recovered and shows excellent stability of the catalytic properties. The reaction was shown to proceed via a singlet oxygen pathway and has a high selectivity for aliphatic sulfides, whereas the oxidation of thioanisoles can be accomplished using an amine mediated electron transfer mechanism. The applicability of the fullerene nanodispersion as a general purpose photocatalyst was demonstrated in radical cyclization, boronic acid oxidation and imine formation reactions.

- Green synthesis of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) using Tribulus terrestris extract: Investigation of its catalytic activity in the oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and study of its anti-acute leukemia activity
-
With regards to applied, facile, green chemical research, a bio-inspired approach is being reported for the synthesis of Au NPs by using Tribulus terrestris extract. The innate oxygenated phytochemicals facilitated the green reduction of Au3+ ions to corresponding NPs and also stabilized them by encapsulating them. This modification prevented the as-synthesized Au NPs towards agglomeration and tiny NPs were obtained in uniformly spherical in shape and in the range of 10–15 nm dimension. Physicochemical characteristics of the green synthesized Au NPs were evaluated by advanced physicochemical techniques like UV–Vis and FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM, TEM, EDX and XRD study. Catalytic performance of the biomolecule functionalized Au NPs was investigated in the controlled and selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides using hydrogen peroxide as green oxidant at room temperature. Aromatic, aliphatic and heterocyclic sulfides were oxidized to their corresponding sulfoxides with high yields without formation of over oxidized sulfones. The catalyst was easily recovered and recycled for 8 successive times without noticeable decrease in catalytic activity. In addition, the biosynthesized Au NPs indicated suitable antioxidant and anti-acute leukemia properties against THP-1 cell line. Tribulus terrestris extract and the green synthesized Au NPs exhibited a maximum DPPH scavenging activity of 78% and 29.37%, respectively. Again, in the anticancer studies over THP-1 cell line following MTT assay, the Au NP exhibited gradual reduced % cell viability with increase in its concentration. At an Au NPs concentration of 2000 μg/mL, the % toxicity became maximum suggesting efficient inhibition of cancer invasion. Based on the above results, Au NPs-Tribulus could be administered as a potential anti-leukemia drug for the treatment of acute leukemia following the clinical trial studies in humans.

Abstract: Two magnetic nano catalysts of nickel and copper, Fe3O4@SiO2@DOP-BenPyr-M(II), (M=Ni and Cu) have been synthesized. These catalysts were applied as recoverable, efficient and new heterogeneous catalysts for the high yielding and room temperature one-pot procedure of selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and oxidative coupling of thiols to disulfides. In addition, the catalytic activity of Fe3O4@SiO2@DOP-BenPyr-Ni(II) was investigated as heterogeneous nanocatalyst for synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones, 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles and polyhydroquinolines. The synthesized catalysts were characterized by FT-IR, TGA, XRD, VSM, EDX, ICP and SEM techniques. These catalysts were recovered by an external magnet and reused several times without significant loss of catalytic efficiency. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Oxidation of α-siloxy thioethers leads to the formation of the corresponding sulfoxides as unstable intermediates, which undergo an intramolecular oxygen-to-oxygen silyl migration to break the C-S linkage. This process produces silyl protected sulfenic acids and subsequently thiosulfinates. It was used to develop oxidation-triggered allicin donors.

Abstract: The paper describes a method developed for the oxidation of organosulfur compounds using organic peroxides generated in situ under the action of atmospheric oxygen on gasoline fraction after reforming. Naphtha reformate that contained dibenzothiophene as a model substrate was subjected to oxidative desulfurization by organic peroxides generated in situ under atmospheric oxygen. The study examined various catalytic systems, including immobilized Anderson-type polyoxometalates, and initiators, which, in combination, provided effective generation of alkyl hydroperoxides, selective oxidation of organosulfur compounds in the hydrocarbon feedstock, and a high conversion rate.

- Magneli-type tungsten oxide nanorods as catalysts for the selective oxidation of organic sulfides
-
Selective oxidation of thioethers is an important reaction to obtain sulfoxides as synthetic intermediates for applications in the chemical industry, medicinal chemistry and biology or the destruction of warfare agents. The reduced Magneli-type tungsten oxide WO3?xpossesses a unique oxidase-like activity which facilitates the oxidation of thioethers to the corresponding sulfoxides. More than 90% of the model system methylphenylsulfide could be converted to the sulfoxide with a selectivity of 98% at room temperature within 30 minutes, whereas oxidation to the corresponding sulfone was on a time scale of days. The concentration of the catalyst had a significant impact on the reaction rate. Reasonable catalytic effects were also observed for the selective oxidation of various organic sulfides with different substituents. The WO3?xnanocatalysts could be recycled at least 5 times without decrease in activity. We propose a metal oxide-catalyzed route based on the clean oxidant hydrogen peroxide. Compared to other molecular or enzyme catalysts the WO3?xsystem is a more robust redox-nanocatalyst, which is not susceptible to decomposition or denaturation under standard conditions. The unique oxidase-like activity of WO3?xcan be used for a wide range of applications in synthetic, environmental or medicinal chemistry.

In this work, a vanillin complex is immobilized onto MCM-41 and characterized by FT-IR, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and BET techniques. This supported Schiff base complex was found to be an efficient and recoverable catalyst for the chemoselective oxidation of sulfides into sulfoxides and thiols into their corresponding disulfides (using hydrogen peroxide as a green oxidant) and also a suitable catalyst for the preparation of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives in water at 90°C. Using this protocol, we show that a variety of disulfides, sulfoxides, and 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives can be synthesized in green conditions. The catalyst can be recovered and recycled for further reactions without appreciable loss of catalytic performance.

- A safe and compact flow platform for the neutralization of a mustard gas simulant with air and light
-
A low footprint, mobile, robust and frugal chemical neutralization technology is reported for the oxidative neutralization of a mustard gas simulant. It relies on the inherent properties of a highly engineered continuous flow setup and carefully optimized and simple, yet robust, experimental conditions. The neutralization protocol uses only non-toxic, widely available and cheap chemicals. The continuous flow setup integrates a singlet oxygen generator and exploits its oxidative power to neutralize 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES), the most common thioether mustard gas simulant. The flow reactor can be connected to either pressurized oxygen or air and handles CEES as a 1 M solution in EtOH containing a trace amount (0.06 molpercent) of a non-toxic and widely available photosensitizer (Methylene Blue). Upon irradiation with visible light (orange or white light), total and highly selective neutralization towards the corresponding non-toxic sulfoxide (1-chloro-2-(ethylsulfinyl)ethane, CEESO) is obtained with reactor effluents containing less than 1percent of the corresponding potentially toxic sulfone (1-chloro-2-(ethylsulfonyl)ethane, CEESO2). With a low footprint (L × W × H 94 × 42 × 40 cm), this neutralization technology can be equipped on a vehicle for on-site interventions, localized at a neutralization facility or both. This experimental work is also supported with the computational rationalization of the reactivity of CEES towards singlet oxygen.

- Synthesis and nano-Pd catalyzed chemoselective oxidation of symmetrical and unsymmetrical sulfides
-
A highly chemoselective, efficient and nano-Pd catalyzed protocol for the rapid construction of sulfoxides and sulfones via the oxidation of symmetrical and unsymmetrical sulfides using H2O2 as an oxidant has been developed, respectively. The ready availability of starting materials, easy recovery and reutilization of the catalyst, wide substrate scope, and high yields make this protocol an attractive alternative. The process also involves the metal-free and microwave-promoted synthesis of symmetrical diarylsulfides, and FeCl3-mediated preparation of symmetrical diaryldisulfides through the reaction of arenediazonium tetrafluoroborates with Na2S·9H2O as a sulfur source. In addition, unsymmetrical sulfides were generated via the K2CO3-mediated reaction of arenediazonium tetrafluoroborates with symmetrical disulfides.

- Efficient Liquid-Assisted Grinding Selective Aqueous Oxidation of Sulfides Using Supported Heteropolyacid Catalysts
-
The present work reports the preparation of 40MoAl200 and its full characterization using a number of analytical techniques (XRD, TEM, TGA, BET, EDX). Liquid-assisted ball milling proved to be a key tool to achieve both the best efficiency of 40MoAl200 as a novel Keggin type catalyst in the selective sulfoxidation reaction and also for succeeding in its effective recovery and reuse. In addition, the liquid assisted grinding process was studied in detail evaluating the influence of different parameters such as frequency of rotation (rpm), number and size of the stainless steel balls used and reaction time. The use of aqueous hydrogen peroxide is essential as water proved to exert a crucial role to improve both yields and selectivity towards sulfoxide formation. The procedure was representatively extended to a number of substrates with the possibility to extend the scope of the system to produce sulfoxides in high yields (up to 95 %) and satisfactory selectivities (up to 80 %). The catalyst proved to be recoverable and reusable under the optimized reaction conditions.

The catalytic performance of the as-synthesized heterogeneous nanocatalyst was effectively investigated for the chemoselective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides in the presence of 30% H 2O 2 as an oxidant at room temperature under solvent-free condition. Optimization of the reaction conditions was performed by means of central composite design (CCD), which is one of the powerful response surface methodologies. Based on the results obtained under the optimum condition, the sample of 16 wt.% of PMA loading offered high conversion rates and yields (97%). Besides, the beneficial points of the prepared catalyst were its recoverability and reusability for several reaction cycles, low-cost and toxicity, easy availability and facile production. Graphical abstract: Nano-glass waste-supported phosphomolybdic acid (n-GW/PMA) was synthesized as a novel, highly efficient and retrievable nanocatalyst for the chemoselective, green and rapid oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides through an experimental design (CCD) approach. The prepared catalyst was characterized by FT-IR, TGA, XRD, FE-SEM and EDX techniques. [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

- Synthesis and characterization of PMoV/Fe3O4/g-C3N4 from melamine: An industrial green nanocatalyst for deep oxidative desulfurization
-
A facile approach to the preparation of a novel magnetically separable H5PMo10V2O40/Fe3O4/g-C3N4 (PMoV/Fe3O4/g-C3N4) nanocomposite by chemical impregnation is demonstrated. The prepared nanocomposite was characterized and its acidity was measured by potentiometric titration. PMoV/Fe3O4/g-C3N4 showed high catalytic activity in the selective oxidative desulfurization of sulfides to their corresponding sulfoxides or sulfones. The catalytic oxidation of a dibenzothiophene (DBT)-containing model oil and that of real oil were also studied under optimized conditions. In addition, the effects of various nitrogen compounds, as well as the use of one- and two-ring aromatic hydrocarbons as co-solvents, on the catalytic removal of sulfur from DBT were investigated. The catalyst was easily separated and could be recovered from the reaction mixture by using an external magnetic field. Additionally, the remaining reactants could be separated from the products by simple decantation if an appropriate solvent was chosen for the extraction. The advantages of this nanocatalyst are its high catalytic activity and reusability; it can be used at least four times without considerable loss of activity.

- New metal complexes supported on Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles as recoverable catalysts for selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides
-
Fe3O4 nanoparticles were coated with aminopropyltriethoxysilane and subsequently reacted with isatin to obtain imine-bonded Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The addition of ZrOCl2·8H2O or CuCl2 led to the formation of complexes of Zr(IV)/isatin@Fe3O4 or Cu (II)/isatin@Fe3O4 as new magnetically separable catalysts. The synthesized catalysts were characterized using various techniques. These catalysts are shown to be efficient for chemo-selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides using hydrogen peroxide as oxidative agent. This system has many advantages, such as excellent level of reusability of magnetic catalysts, high yields, simplicity of separation of catalysts using an external magnet, environmental benignity and ease of handling.

- Synthesis and characterization of Co (II) and Fe (III) Schiff base complexes grafted onto mesoporous MCM-41: A heterogeneous and recyclable nanocatalysts for the selective oxidation of sulfides and oxidative coupling of thiols
-
Novel organic–inorganic hybrid heterogeneous catalysts containing cobalt(II) and iron(III) Schiff base complexes, grafted on the internal surface of MCM-41 pores were prepared by introducing a metal salt into a mesoporous silica functionalized with a Schiff base ligand. The chemical and physical properties of the catalysts were investigated by BET, TGA, XRD, FT-IR, and TEM techniques. These complexes were found to be efficient, selective catalysts for the oxidation of various sulfides to sulfoxides and oxidative coupling of thiols to their corresponding disulfides with urea hydrogen peroxide in excellent yield at room temperature. The designed catalytic system prevents effectively the overoxidation of sulfides and thiols to sulfoxides and sulfones, respectively. Also the heterogeneous catalysts can be recovered easily and reused many times without significant loss of activity and selectivity.

- Preparation of DSA@MNPs and application as heterogeneous and recyclable nanocatalyst for oxidation of sulfides and oxidative coupling of thiols
-
Abstract: Dopamine sulfamic acid-functionalized magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (DSA@MNPs) were prepared by a very simple and inexpensive procedure using commercial materials and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM) techniques. They were employed as an efficient and recoverable catalyst in oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and oxidative coupling of thiols to disulfides using hydrogen peroxide as green oxidant at room temperature. This is the first report of application of DSA@MNPs in organic reactions. The supported magnetic nanoparticles could be easily recovered using an appropriate external magnet, minimizing catalyst loss during separation, and reused for several times without any loss of catalytic activity. Also, the amount of sulfamic acid function in the DSA@MNPs was calculated from ion-exchange pH analysis and back titration. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

- Synthesis, characterization, and catalytic application of Cr and Mn Schiff base complexes immobilized on modified nanoporous MCM-41
-
Immobilization of chromium and manganese Schiff base complexes by postgrafting of ligand then metal salts on the walls of mesoporous MCM-41 functionalized with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane is described. Characterization of the resulting heterogeneous catalysts by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) techniques indicated successful grafting of these two complexes inside the nanochannels of MCM-41. The complexes were found to be efficient, selective catalysts for oxidation of various sulfides to sulfoxides and oxidative coupling of thiols to corresponding disulfides using H2O2 as oxidant at room temperature. The recycling results of these heterogeneous catalysts showed good recyclability without significant loss of activity or selectivity in successive runs, indicating that the Cr and Mn Schiff base complexes supported on nanoporous MCM-41 remained intact and the coordination environments were not altered during the reaction.

- Sulfamic acid-functionalized nano-titanium dioxide as an efficient, mild and highly recyclable solid acid nanocatalyst for chemoselective oxidation of sulfides and thiols
-
A highly efficient and retrievable titanium dioxide-based nanocatalyst has been synthesized by covalent grafting of chlorosulfonic acid on amine-functionalized titania as a novel inorganic-organic hybrid heterogeneous nanocatalyst, which was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The acid strength of the catalyst was determined by pH analysis and the Hammett acidity function. The potential of the resultant nanocatalyst was effectively evaluated for the chemoselective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and thiols to disulfides using 30% H2O2 as an oxidant at room temperature under solvent-free conditions, which led to high conversion rates and yields. Optimization of the reaction conditions was studied by central composite design (CCD), which is one of the most widely used response surface methodologies. The catalyst can be easily recycled up to 10 times without significant decrease in catalytic activity, which makes it a promising catalyst for practical and large-scale applications. This work is the first report that uses 2,4-toluene diisocyanate as a linker for immobilizing liquid acid on a support.

- An eco-friendly oxidation of sulfide compounds
-
An improved green route has been developed for the oxidation of sulfide compounds. Albendazole is converted to ricobendazole or albendazole sulfone using H 2O2 as an oxidant and H 2O as the solvent. High yields of the corresponding products were obtained by carrying out the reaction at room temperature. This synthetic method is environmentally clean and safe, operationally simple for the oxidation of other benzimidazole anthelmintics and various sulfide compounds.

-
The reaction of Fe(acac)3 and 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl)oxazoline (Hphox) as a bidentate O,N donor ligand afforded a six-coordinated iron(III) complex [Fe(phox)2(acac)] with distorted octahedral configuration. The complex was isolated as an air-stable crystalline solid and characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, solution electrical conductivity, and by single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. The structure, electronic properties, and vibrational normal modes of the complex were investigated by DFT. The use of this complex as a catalyst for the oxidation of sulfides to their corresponding sulfoxides using urea hydrogen peroxide as the primary oxidant was investigated. The catalyst shows very efficient reactivity, giving high yields and selectivities at room temperature under air.

- Synthesis, characterization and catalytic evaluation of H3PW12O40 included in acrylic acid/acrylamide polymer for the selective oxidation of sulfides
-
A series of hybrid materials (SAPTPA) based on tungstophosphoric acid H3PW12O40 (TPA) included in acrylic acid/acrylamide polymer (SAP) were synthetized. The samples were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, 31P MAS-NMR, DTA-TGA, and the acidic properties were determined by means of potentiometric titration with n-butylamine. Materials with 10, 20, 30 and 40% (w/w) TPA content in the solid (SAPTPA10, SAPTPA20, SAPTPA30 and SAPTPA40, respectively) were prepared by impregnating the polymer with tungstophosphoric acid water solutions. According to FT-IR and 31P MAS-NMR studies, the main species present in the samples is the [PW12O40]3- anion, which was partially transformed into [P2W21O71]6- and [PW11O39]7- anions during the synthesis and drying steps. Taking into account XRD results, these species are highly dispersed in the polymer matrix or appear as noncrystalline phases. The DTA-TGA results show that SAPTPA materials did not undergo any remarkable chemical changes up to 200 °C. Additionally, the SAPTPA materials showed strong acid sites whose number increased as the TPA content in them was higher. The materials obtained by impregnation of TPA onto the polymer matrix present suitable physicochemical properties to be used as catalysts in the selective oxidation of sulfides to the corresponding sulfoxide/sulfone using acetonitrile as solvent and H2O2 35% w/v as a clean oxidant. The SAPTPA40 catalyst was appropriate for the selective sulfide oxidation in heterogeneous conditions and can be reused without significant loss of its catalytic activity. A convenient and selective procedure for oxidizing sulfides to sulfoxides or sulfones by varying the H2O2/substrate ratio and the temperature was found.

The catalyst was analysed using a series of characterization techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, small-angle X-ray diffraction, nitrogen absorption isotherm, transmission electron microscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The data collected provided evidence that the vanadium complex was anchored onto MCM-41. High catalytic activity of this catalyst was observed in the oxidation of various sulfides and thiols (into sulfoxides and disulfides, respectively) with urea hydrogen peroxide as oxidant in high to excellent yields and selectivity under mild conditions. The heterogeneous catalyst could be recovered easily and reused several times without significant loss in catalytic activity and selectivity.
