Unexpected 2,4,6-trimethylphenol oxidation in the presence of Fe(III) aquacomplexes

, p. 191 - 196 (2006)
2,4,6-Trimethylphenol (TMP) was efficiently oxidised by Fe(III) aquacomplexes. HPLC analysis was used to follow the kinetics of the redox process. Two degradation products were detected and identified: 2,6-dimethyl-4-(hydroxymethyl)phenol (P1) and 3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (P2) accounting for 100% of TMP degradation in the early stages of the reaction. The formation of the products was concomitant with the reduction of Fe(III) into Fe(II). The direct relation between TMP oxidation and the concentration of the monomeric species {Fe(H2O)5(OH)} 2+ gives evidence for the initial reaction to take place between TMP and this particular species. Moreover, the correlation between P2 formation and P1 disappearance during the reaction implies the sequence of reactions: TMP → P1 → P2. A mechanism leading to the two degradation products is proposed. the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique 2006.

The development of sensitive and reliable fluorescent probes for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is highly challenging and plays an important role in achieving effective treatments. Herein, we designed and synthesized an indole-based fluorophore for TTR in human plasma, an important hallmark of AD pathogenesis. This robust and simple fluorescent method allows quantification of TTR in the complex biological matrix.

2,4,6-Trimethylphenol was efficiently oxagenated to 3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde by molecular oxagen in the presence of catalytic amount of copper(II)chloride/amine (1/1) complex in alcoholic solvent at ambient temperature.
5-Hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-derived polyfunctional antioxidants: 1. Synthesis of 2-dodecylthiomethyl-5-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans

2-Dodecylthiomethyl-5-hydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans, new sulfur-containing analogs of tocopherols, were synthesized based on methylphenols through the intermediate preparation of 4-alkoxy-2-allylphenols and then 5-alkoxy-2-iodomethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofura

Dioxygen activation for effective C?O bond formation in the coordination sphere of a metal is a long-standing challenge in chemistry for which the design of catalysts for oxygenations is slowed down by the complicated, and sometimes poorly understood, mechanistic panorama. In this context, olefin–peroxide complexes could be valuable models for the study of such reactions. Herein, we showcase the isolation of rare “Ir(cod)(peroxide)” complexes (cod=1,5-cyclooctadiene) from reactions with oxygen, and then the activation of the peroxide ligand for O?O bond cleavage and C?O bond formation by transfer of a hydrogen atom through proton transfer/electron transfer reactions to give 2-iradaoxetane complexes and water. 2,4,6-Trimethylphenol, 1,4-hydroquinone, and 1,4-cyclohexadiene were used as hydrogen atom donors. These reactions can be key steps in the oxy-functionalization of olefins with oxygen, and they constitute a novel mechanistic pathway for iridium, whose full reaction profile is supported by DFT calculations.

Efficient aerobic oxidation has been developed for the selective preparation of a sequence of valuable p-hydroxybenzaldehydes from corresponding p-cresols, using a new magnetically separable catalyst of nano-structured cobalt-cobalt oxide/nitrogen-doped carbon (CoOx@CN) material. CoOx@CN showed high activity for the 2-methoxy-4-cresol oxidation to vanillin, giving great yield (90%) and with good turnover number (210), as well as other p-cresols in good to great yields. The catalytic performance was investigated and related to the structural, chemical and magnetic properties which determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The effects of base to substrate molar ratio, catalyst concentration, temperature, and solvent on the conversion and selectivity patterns also have been studied. The investigation revealed that remarkable catalytic properties of CoOx@CN could be ascribed to the active species cobalt oxide, doped nitrogen and porous carbon with large surface area. The size of the catalyst is a key factor for catalyst performance. The ferromagnetic property of catalyst enables to recycle easily by an external magnetic field and reuse six successive times without significant activity loss.
