The invention belongs to the technical field of medicines, and discloses an aromatic compound hydrogenation and hydrodeoxygenation method under mild conditions and application of the method in hydrogenation and hydrodeoxygenation reactions of the aromatic compounds and related mixtures. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps: contacting the aromatic compound or a mixture containing the aromatic compound with a catalyst and hydrogen with proper pressure in a solvent under a proper temperature condition, and reacting the hydrogen, the solvent and the aromatic compound under the action of the catalyst to obtain a corresponding hydrogenation product or/and a hydrodeoxygenation product without an oxygen-containing substituent group. The invention also discloses specific implementation conditions of the method and an aromatic compound structure type applicable to the method. The hydrogenation and hydrodeoxygenation reaction method used in the invention has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, high hydrodeoxygenation efficiency, wide substrate applicability, convenient post-treatment, and good laboratory and industrial application prospects.

Cleavage of aromatic ether bonds is a key step for lignin valorization, and the development of novel heterogeneous catalysts with high activity is crucial. Herein, bifunctional Ru/hydroxyapatite has been prepared via ion exchange and subsequent reduction. The obtained Ru/hydroxyapatite could efficiently catalyze the cleavage of various compounds containing aromatic ether bonds via transfer hydrogenolysis without additional bases. Systematic studies indicated that the basic nature of hydroxyapatite and electron-enriched Ru sites resulted in the high activity of the catalyst. A mechanism study revealed that the direct cleavage of aromatic ether bonds was the main reaction pathway.

The synthesis of high-efficiency and low-cost catalysts for hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of waste lignin to advanced biofuels is crucial for enhancing current biorefinery processes. Inexpensive transition metals, including Fe, Ni, Cu, and Zn, were severally co-loaded with Ru on HY zeolite to form bimetallic and bifunctional catalysts. These catalysts were subsequently tested for HDO conversion of softwood lignin and several lignin model compounds. Results indicated that the inexpensive earth-abundant metals could modulate the hydrogenolysis activity of Ru and decrease the yield of low-molecular-weight gaseous products. Among these catalysts, Ru-Cu/HY showed the best HDO performance, affording the highest selectivity to hydrocarbon products. The improved catalytic performance of Ru-Cu/HY was probably a result of the following three factors: (1) high total and strong acid sites, (2) good dispersion of metal species and limited segregation, and (3) high adsorption capacity for polar fractions, including hydroxyl groups and ether bonds. Moreover, all bifunctional catalysts proved to be superior over the combination catalysts of Ru/Al2O3 and HY zeolite.
Preparation of 1-phenylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1-carboxylates and their use in free-radical mediated syntheses

Synthetic routes to pure 1-phenylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1-carboxylic acid and derived esters were developed. Esters containing appropriately unsaturated side chains generated the corresponding alkenyl radicals and hence gave good yields of 5-exo ring closure products in organotin-free reactions. Extrusion of phenyl radicals from the intermediate cyclohexadienyl type radicals was not observed, and this alternative β-scission did not compete under any conditions. Yields from alkylations of olefins in analogous intermolecular processes were, however, poor. As a spin-off from the research, it was found that 1-phenylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1-carboxylic acid (6) was a useful source of hydroxyformyl (formate) radicals in organic solvents.
Reductive free-radical alkylations and cyclisations mediated by 1-alkylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1-carboxylic acids

A range of 1-alkylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1-carboxylic acids were prepared by Birch reduction-alkylation of benzoic acid and their efficiency as mediators of alkyl radical chain addition and cyclisation processes was investigated. Reductive alkylations were respectably successful, even with only one or two equivalents of alkene, for secondary, tertiary and benzylic radicals. Reaction of 1-[2-(cyclohex-2-enyloxy)ethyl]cyclohexa-2,5-diene-1-carboxylic acid yielded the product of exo-trig-cyclisation, i.e. 7-oxabicyclo[4.3.0]nonane, in a yield comparable to that obtained from the tributyltin hydride induced cyclisation of 3-(2′-iodoethoxy)-cyclohexene. This, together with the isolation of both exo- and endo-cyclisation products from 1-[2-(6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]hept-2-en-2-ylmethoxy)ethyl]cyclohexa-2,5-diene- 1-carboxylic acid established that ring closures could also be satisfactorily mediated with these reagents. Preparations were completely free of metal contaminants and direct reduction of the alkyl radicals, prior to addition or cyclisation, was completely absent. However, the desired products were accompanied by alkylbenzenes, together with by-products from the initiator decompositions, and this complicated work-up. Failure to obtain 1-[2-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)cyclohexyl]cyclohexa-2,5-diene-1-carboxylic acid in Birch reductive alkylations with trans-1-iodo-2-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)cyclohexane (and the corresponding bromide) indicated a limitation on precursor synthesis. The Birch reduction-alkylation was not of universal applicability and was suppressed for alkyl halides having β-substituents.
