Heterogeneous organocatalysts hold great potential as they offer practical advantages in terms of purification and reusability compared with the homogeneous counterpart. A puzzling aspect is the solvent effect on their catalytic performance. Here we propo

One-pot synthesis of furan-2,5-dimethylcarboxylate (FDMC) from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is highly demanding for the commercial production of polyethylene furanoate (PEF). Herein, a direct synthesis of FDMC is reported from oxidative esterification of HMF using ultrafine CuO particles dispersed on nitrogen-doped hollow carbon nanospheres (CuO/N?C?HNSs) as a catalyst and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as an oxidizing and methylating reagent. The CuO/N?C?HNSs was prepared through a template protection-sacrifice strategy using SiO2 as a sacrificial template and histidine as the precursor for N and C. N-doping facilitated a strong interaction between the support and copper species, affording formation of CuO nanoparticles of less than 10 nm in size. By virtue of the highly dispersed CuO nanoparticles and a high BET surface area 373 m2/g, the CuO/N?C?HNSsshows excellent catalytic performance in the selective conversion of HMF into FDMC affording 93 % yield of the desired product with a TON value of 49. Furthermore, the oxidative esterification involving SP3C?H bond functionalization is also demonstrated using the same catalyst.

The chlorination of aromatic carboxylic acids with SOCl2 has been effectively performed by reacting with a Br?nsted acid as the catalyst. Based on this discovery, an efficient catalytic method that is cheaper than traditional catalytic methods was developed. 20 substrates were chlorinated offering excellent yields in a short reaction time. And the SOCl2/Br?nsted acid system has been used in a larger scale preparative reaction. A dual activation mechanism was proposed to prove the irreplaceable system of SOCl2/Br?nsted acid.
