- Polystyrene stabilized iridium nanoparticles catalyzed chemo- and regio-selective semi-hydrogenation of nitroarenes to N-arylhydroxylamines
-
Polystyrene stabilized Iridium (Ir@PS) nanoparticles (NPs) as a heterogeneous catalyst have been developed and characterized by IR, UV–Vis, SEM, TEM, EDX and XRD studies. The prepared Ir@PS catalyst showed excellent reactivity for chemo- and regio-selective controlled-hydrogenation of functionalized nitroarenes to corresponding N-arylhydroxylamine using hydrazine hydrate as reducing source and environmentally benign polyethylene glycol (PEG-400) as green solvent. The present methodology was applied for vast substrate scope and found to be compatible with wide range of reducible functional groups. The reaction performed at 85 °C or ambient temperature and completed within 5–80 minutes. The catalyst can easily be filtered out from reaction mixture and reusable.

- Selective hydrogenation of nitroaromatics to: N -arylhydroxylamines in a micropacked bed reactor with passivated catalyst
-
In this contribution, a protocol was established for the selective catalytic hydrogenation of nitroarenes to the corresponding N-arylhydroxylamines. The reduction of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-((2-nitrobenzyl)oxy)-1H-pyrazole, an intermediate in the synthesis of the antifungal reagent pyraclostrobin that includes carbon-chlorine bonds, benzyl groups, carbon-carbon double bonds and other structures that are easily reduced, was chosen as the model reaction for catalyst evaluation and condition optimization. Extensive passivant evaluation showed that RANEY-nickel treated with ammonia/DMSO (1 : 10, v/v) afforded the optimal result, especially with a particle size of 400-500 mesh. To combine the modified catalyst with continuous-flow reaction technology, the reaction was conducted at room temperature, rendering the desired product with a conversion rate of 99.4% and a selectivity of 99.8%. The regeneration of catalytic activity was also studied, and an in-column strategy was developed by pumping the passivate liquid overnight. Finally, the generality of the method was explored, and 7 substrates were developed, most of which showed a good conversion rate and selectivity, indicating that the method has a certain degree of generality.

- A general and scalable synthesis of polysubstituted indoles
-
A consecutive 2-step synthesis of N-unprotected polysubstituted indoles bearing an electron-withdrawing group at the C-3 position from readily available nitroarenes is reported. The protocol is based on the [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of N-oxyenamines generated by the DABCO-catalyzed reaction of N-arylhydroxylamines and conjugated terminal alkynes, and delivers indoles endowed with a wide array of substitution patterns and topologies.

- Influence of the side-group at C=N bridging bond of bis-aryl Schiff bases on the wavelength of absorption maximum of ultraviolet absorption spectra
-
The compounds N-(benzylidene)-anilines XArCH=NArY (XBAY), N-(phenyl-ethylene)-anilines XArC(CH3)=NArY (XPEAY) and N-phenyl-α-phenylnitrones XArCH=N(O)ArY (XPNY) have bridging group CH=N, C(CH3)=N and CH=N(O) respectively, in which the C(CH3)=N has a side-group methyl CH3 at carbon end and the CH=N(O) has a side-group O atom at nitrogen end. In this work, a series of XPEAY and XPNY were synthesized, and their longest wavelength maximum λmax (nm) of ultraviolet absorption spectra were measured. Then the change regularity of the νmax (cm-1, νmax=1/λmax) of XPEAY and XPNY were investigated, and they were compared with that of XBAY (reported by ref.26). The results indicate: (1) There are no good linear relationships between the νmax of XBAYs and XPEAYs or XPNYs. (2) In case of a same set of X-Y group couples, the distribution of λmax of XPEAYs is larger than that of XPNYs. (3) The side-group CH3 makes the effect of σ(X) larger than that of σ(Y) on the νmax of XPEAYs, whereas the O atom makes the effect of σ(Y) larger than that of σ(X) on the νmax of XPNYs. (4) The cross-interaction between X and Y has important effect on the all νmax. However, the cross-interaction between CH3 and X/Y has not important effect on the νmax of XPEAY, and the cross-interaction between O and X/Y has not important effect on the νmax of XPNY. Copyright

- An asymmetric pericyclic cascade approach to 3-alkyl-3-aryloxindoles: Generality, applications and mechanistic investigations
-
The reaction of L-serine derived N-arylnitrones with alkylarylketenes generates asymmetric 3-alkyl-3-aryloxindoles in good to excellent yields (up to 93%) and excellent enantioselectivity (up to 98% ee) via a pericyclic cascade process. The optimization, scope and applications of this transformation are reported, alongside further synthetic and computational investigations. The preparation of the enantiomer of a Roche anti-cancer agent (RO4999200) 1 (96% ee) in three steps demonstrates the potential utility of this methodology.

- Solid supported platinum(0) nanoparticles catalyzed chemo-selective reduction of nitroarenes to N-arylhydroxylamines
-
Solid supported platinum(0) (SS-Pt) nanoparticles were developed as a heterogeneous catalyst following a reduction/deposition method and characterized by SEM, TEM, EDX and XRD analysis. The SS-Pt catalyst was applied in the chemo-selective reduction of nitroarenes to N-arylhydroxylamines using hydrazine hydrate as a hydrogen source. A wide variety of reducible functional groups such as halides, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, nitriles, keto, alkenes, alkynes and N-benzyl were well tolerated under the reaction conditions. This process was further successfully employed in 10 g scale reactions. N-Arylhydroxylamines were further applied for catalyst free synthesis of azoxybenzenes. Moreover, use of PEG-400 as cheap reaction medium, additive free methodology and the recyclability of SS-Pt catalyst up to ten times without significant loss of catalytic activity evidently follow the principles of green chemistry.

- Selective reduction of nitroarenes to N-arylhydroxylamines by use of Zn in a CO2-H2O system, promoted by ultrasound
-
The promoting effect of ultrasound on the selective reduction of nitroarenes to N-arylhydroxylamines by use of Zn in an environmentally benign CO2-H2O system has been demonstrated. The yield of N-phenylhydroxylamine reaches 95% when the reaction is carried out with a Zn-to-nitrobenzene molar ratio of 2.2 under ultrasound (40 kHz) at 25 °C and normal pressure of CO2 for 60 min. Application of ultrasound to the reaction has the advantages of higher yield of N-arylhydroxylamines, shorter reaction time, and consumption of less Zn. Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2012.

- Effect of substituents on the rate of oxidation of anilines with peroxomonosulfate monoanion (HOOSO3-) in aqueous acetonitrile: A mechanistic study
-
Mechanistic studies on the oxidation of 18 meta-, para-, and ortho-substituted anilines (Ans) by HOOSO3- in aqueous acetonitrile medium have been performed. The reaction can be characterized by the experimental rate equation, -d[HSO5-]/dt = k[An][HSO5-] The addition of p-toluenesulfonic acid (TsOH) retards the reaction. The increase in the reactivity of anilines as the medium is made more aqueous is interpreted. The reaction is enhanced by electron-donating groups on the amine in the series consistent with the rate-limiting nucleophilic attack of the amine on the persulfate oxygen. The proposed mechanism involves the conversion of phenylhydroxylamine to nitrosobenzene in a fast step. The ESR study reveals the absence of free radicals in the reaction. Various attempts have been made to analyze the experimental rate constants in terms of LFER plots. Improved correlations are obtained with σ- values and the σ- form of the Yukawa-Tsuno equation.

- Reaction pathways and the role of solvent in the hydrogenation of chloronitrobenzenes
-
Liquid phase hydrogenation of chloronitrobenzenes to corresponding chloroanilines over Pd on carbon (Pd/C) under mild reaction conditions was studied. On the basis of 1H, 13C NMR, GC-MS and HPLC analyses of reaction mixtures, the reaction pathways were evaluated. The reduction of substrates proceeds via the formation of chloronitrosobenzenes and N-(chlorophenyl)hydroxylamines and mainly results in the formation of the chloroanilines and aniline. Aniline is formed by hydrogenolysis of chlorine (dechlorination) in benzene ring. Other compounds (mono- and disubstituted azobenzenes and azoxybenzenes) were also detected by GS-MS and HPLC (3 mole %). The used solvent influences the reaction mixture composition and catalyst activity.

- Mechanism and reactivity in perborate oxidation of anilines in acetic acid
-
Perborate but not percarbonate in acetic acid generates peracetic acid on standing and the peracetic acid oxidation of anilines is fast. The oxidation with a fresh solution of perborate in acetic acid is smooth and second order but the specific oxidation rate increases with increasing [perborate]0 or [boric acid]. Perborate on dissolution affords hydrogen peroxide and a borate; the latter assists the former in the oxidation. The oxidation rates of anilines under identical conditions do not conform to any of the linear free energy relationships but the reaction rates of molecular anilines do. Perborate oxidation proceeds via two reaction paths but the overall oxidation rates of molecular anilines conform to structure reactivity relationships; the transition states do not differ significantly. Analysis of the oxidation rates of perborate and percarbonate reveals that while perborate oxidation is faster than percarbonate it is at least as selective as the latter.

The synthesis and properties of eight new hydroxamic acids derived from α-phenylstyrylacrylic acids are described. These hydroxamic acids, which are crystalline compounds, were characterized by their ultraviolet, infrared, and NMR spectra. The purity was checked by HPLC and HPTLC. The nonaqueous titrations and alkaline hydrolysis are reported. Thermodynamic ionization constants at (25 and 35 +/- 0.1) deg C are determined. Preliminary studies show that these acids form a chloroform-extractable violet complex with vanadium(V) in 6 M hydrochloric acid solutions.

- Electrophilic intermediate in the reaction of glutathione and nitrosoarenes
-
A kinetic study is reported of the reaction of glutathione (γ-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinylglycine, GSH) with nine substituted nitrosobenzenes (3,4-Me2 4-Me, 3,5-Me2, 3-Me, parent, 3-MeO, 4-Cl, 3-Cl, 3-NO2). Previous workers have shown that this reaction proceeds in parallel pathways, producing the appropriate N-arylhydroxylamine and GSSG or a sulfinanilide adduct ArNHS(O)G; a rapid equilibrium addition to form a common intermediate, a semimercaptal ArN(OH)SG, has also been observed. In the present study, equilibrium constants for the formation of this intermediate from ArNO and GSH have been measured by a kinetic method, and the kinetic behavior of the slower additional reactions of the semimercaptal have been examined in detail. For experiments carried out at constant pH and buffer concentration, the decay of ArN(OH)SG follows the rate law k2GSH[GSH] + k2(rearr). A comparison with product ratios previously reported shows that the bimolecular term with GSH represents the process forming ArNHOH and GSSG, while the unimolecular term represents the rearrangement to the sulfmanilide. The former process is found to be proportional to [OH-] for solutions near neutrality, is not buffer catalyzed, and has a ρ value of +1.4. This suggests a mechanism in which glutathione anion GS- reacts at the sulfur of the adduct displacing ArN-(OH) as a leaving group. The rearrangement reaction follows σ+ with a ρ+ value of -3.5 and has a rate law containing a pH-independent term and terms for catalysis by H+ and the acid component of the buffer. An 18O tracer study shows that the S=O oxygen in the sulfmanilide is derived from solvent, not the original N=O group. A mechanism is proposed with rate-limiting N-O cleavage, either uncatalyzed involving direct heterolysis with OH- as a leaving group or catalyzed by acids with H2O as the leaving group. The species produced is a cationic intermediate ArN+SG, a nitrenium ion stabilized by both the aryl ring and the directly attached sulfur atom. Aryl-stabilized nitrenium ions are commonly encountered in Bamberger-like rearrangements of hydroxylamine derivatives. The sulfur atom of PhN(OH)SG is shown to provide an approximately 106 rate acceleration for N-O cleavage in a comparison with the Bamberger rearrangement of PhNHOH.

- Metal Ion-Catalyzed Reduction of Substituted Nitrosobenzenes by 1-Benzyl-3,5-bis(1-pyrrolidinylcarbonyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine in Acetonitrile
-
Metal ion catalyzed reduction of substituted nitrosobenzenes by 1-benzyl-3,5-bis(1-pyrrolidinylcarbonyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine (BPDH) in acetonitrile has been studied for seven bivalent metal ions.The reduction of N-methylacridinium salt (MA) has also been examined.In the former cases, it was found that the metal ions catalyze the reduction by forming a 1 : 1 complex with BPDH according to a Michaelis-Menten type saturation kinetics which allowed to derive the association constants, KM, for the complexation and the second-order rate constants, k2, for the reduction.A linear relationship was found between log k2 and the ionization potentials of metal ions with a positive slope.A linear Hammett relationship was also observed between log k2 and the Hammett ? constants with a positive p value for three metal ions.These results suggest that a bivalent metal ion is sandwiched between the BPDH and the substrate and acts as a Lewis acid to stabilize the incipient N-oxide anion of the substrate which is formed by hydride transfer in the transition state.In the cases of MA, all metal ions inhibited the reduction.Repulsion between the positive charges of the metal ion-BPDH complex and the substrate salt appears to be prevailing.

- Proximity Effects in Diaryl Derivatives. Part 7. Mechanism of Base-catalysed Rearrangement of 2-(Hydroxyamino)aryl Phenyl Sulphones to 2-Hydroxy-2'-(phenylsulphonyl)azoxybenzenes
-
Base-catalysed rearrangement of a 2-(hydroxyamino)aryl phenyl sulphone (1b) to the 2-hydroxy-2'-(phenylsulphonyl)azoxybenzene (4b) was shown by isolation and kinetic studies to be a rapid reaction requiring oxygen; in the absence of oxygen the sulphur-free azoxybenzene (3; R=Cl) was the only product isolated from the reaction of (1c).A mechanism for the formation of 2-hydroxyazoxybenzenes (4) is proposed (Scheme 2) involving dimerization of a nitrosoaryl radical anion (9) to the dianion of an NN-diol (10), and displacement of a phenylsulphonyl group by intramolecular transfer of oxygen from a nitrogen atom.A similar study of the base-catalysed reactions of a 2-(hydroxyamino)aryl phenyl sulphide (12) in the presence of oxygen showed that with a poorer leaving group the bis(phenylthio)azoxybenzene (11; R=SPh) is formed.An improved procedure for the preparation of N-arylhydroxylamines from nitrobenzenes is described.

- Kinetics and Mechanism of Polarographic Reduction of Aromatic Nitro Compounds in Aqueous Alcoholic Medium
-
Polarographic reduction of nitrobenzene, ortho-, meta- and para- chloronitrobenzenes, nitrotoluenes, nitrophenols and nitrobenzaldehydes has been studied in 25percent (v/v) aqueous ethanolic solutions, using Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer of varying pH values.KCl (0.1 M) has been used as the supporting electrolyte and Triton X-100 (0.001percent) as the maxima suppressor.The potential-dependent rate constant, kf,h has been calculated by Koutecky's method at different pH values and the values of kinetic parameters (αna and kf,h) have been calculated from logkf,h versus Ed.e. plots which are linear thereby suggesting that only a single rate-determining step is involved in the electrode process of each depolarizer.Based on the values of kinetic parameter, αna and the variation of E1/2 with pH, the stoichiometry of the rate-determining step has been established.This has led to the postulation of a tentative mechanism for the polarographic reduction of each depolarizer.Besides, the effect of the nature and position of various substituents, viz.Cl, CH3, OH and CHO on the kinetics of the polarographic reduction of NO2 group has been investigated.
