- Preparation of a carbon-based solid acid catalyst by sulfonating activated carbon in a chemical reduction process
-
Sulfonated (SO3H-bearing) activated carbon (AC-SO3H) was synthesized by an aryl diazonium salt reduction process. The obtained material had a SO3H density of 0.64 mmol·g-1 and a specific surface area of 602 m2·g-1. The catalytic properties of ACSO3H were compared with that of two commercial solid acid catalysts, Nafion NR50 and Amberlyst-15. In a 10-h esterification reaction of acetic acid with ethanol, the acid conversion with ACSO3H (78%) was lower than that of Amberlyst-15 (86%), which could be attributed to the fact that the SO3H density of the sulfonated carbon was lower than that of Amberlyst-15 (4.60 mmol·g-1). However, AC-SO3H exhibited comparable and even much higher catalytic activities than the commercial catalysts in the esterification of aliphatic acids with longer carbon chains such as hexanoic acid and decanoic acid, which may be due to the large specific surface area and mesoporous structures of the activated carbon. The disadvantage of AC-SO3H is the leaching of SO3H group during the reactions.

- Coupling of fermentation and esterification: Microbial esterification of decanoic acid with ethanol produced via fermentation
-
Two different kinds of bioprocess, ethanol fermentation and subsequent microbial esterification, were coupled using Issatchenkia terricola IFO 0933 in an interface bioreactor. The strain produced ethyl decanoate (Et-DA) by esterification of exogenous decanoic acid (DA) with ethanol produced via fermentation. The efficiency of the new coupling system depended on the concentration of glucose in a carrier and DA in an organic phase (decane) in an agar plate interface bioreactor. Optimum glucose content and DA concentration were 4% and 29 mM, respectively.

- Cationic Silica-Supported N-Heterocyclic Carbene Tungsten Oxo Alkylidene Sites: Highly Active and Stable Catalysts for Olefin Metathesis
-
Designing supported alkene metathesis catalysts with high activity and stability is still a challenge, despite significant advances in the last years. Described herein is the combination of strong σ-donating N-heterocyclic carbene ligands with weak σ-donating surface silanolates and cationic tungsten sites leading to highly active and stable alkene metathesis catalysts. These well-defined silica-supported catalysts, [(≡SiO)W(=O)(=CHCMe2Ph)(IMes)(OTf)] and [(≡SiO)W(=O)(=CHCMe2Ph)(IMes)+][B(ArF)4-] [IMes=1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-imidazol-2-ylidene, B(ArF)4=B(3,5-(CF3)2C6H3)4] catalyze alkene metathesis, and the cationic species display unprecedented activity for a broad range of substrates, especially for terminal olefins with turnover numbers above 1.2 million for propene.

- Catalytic Asymmetric Hydroalkylation of α,β-Unsaturated Amides Enabled by Regio-Reversed and Enantiodifferentiating syn-Hydronickellation
-
Here, we report an enantioselective nickel-hydride catalyzed hydroalkylation of readily accessible β-alkyl-α,β-unsaturated amides to form structurally diverse β-chiral amides. This process was proposed to proceed through an enantiodifferentiating syn-hydrometalation of nickel hydride, forming chiral alkylnickel at the β-position in which the regioselectivity is different from that with copper hydride. This regio-reversed hydronickellation process provides a complementary approach to access enantioenriched β-functionalization amides with a stereocenter at the β-position.

- One-Pot, Tandem Wittig Hydrogenation: Formal C(sp3)-C(sp3) Bond Formation with Extensive Scope
-
A one-pot, tandem Wittig hydrogenation of aldehydes with stabilized ylides is reported, representing a formal C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond construction. The tandem reaction operates under mild conditions, is high yielding, and is broad in scope. Chemoselectivity for olefin reduction is observed, and the methodology is demonstrated in the synthesis of lapatinib analogues and a formal synthesis of (±)-cuspareine. Early insights suggest that the chemoselectivity observed in the reduction step is due to partial poisoning of the catalyst, after step one, thus adding to the power of the one-pot procedure.

- Oxidative Esterification of Aldehydes and Alcohols Catalyzed by Camphor-Based Imidazolium Salts
-
Abstract: Sixteen new camphor-based imidazolium salts have been synthesized with renewable camphorsulfonic acid as the starting material. The chemical shifts of the characteristic proton of C2 on the imidazolium ring (N?C=N) were discussed thoroughly and all of these imidazolium salts exhibit good thermal stability. Furthermore, the excellent catalytic performance of the synthesized imidazolium salts were observed in the oxidative esterification between aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes containing electron-withdrawing or electron-donating groups on aromatic ring and primary or secondary alcohol by air as the sole oxidant.

- Medium-chain fatty acids from Eugenia winzerlingii leaves causing insect settling deterrent, nematicidal, and phytotoxic effects
-
Eugenia winzerlingii (Myrtaceae) is an endemic plant from the Yucatan peninsula. Its organic extracts and fractions from leaves have been tested on two phloem-feeding insects, Bemisia tabaci and Myzus persicae, on two plant parasitic nematodes, Meloidogyne incognita and Meloidogyne javanica, and phytotoxicity on Lolium perenne and Solanum lycopersicum. Results showed that both the hexane extract and the ethyl acetate extract, as well as the fractions, have strong antifeedant and nematicidal effects. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analyses of methylated active fractions revealed the presence of a mixture of fatty acids. Authentic standards of detected fatty acids and methyl and ethyl derivatives were tested on target organisms. The most active compounds were decanoic, undecanoic, and dodecanoic acids. Methyl and ethyl ester derivatives had lower effects in comparison with free fatty acids. Dose-response experiments showed that undecanoic acid was the most potent compound with EC50 values of 21 and 6 nmol/cm2 for M. persicae and B. tabaci, respectively, and 192 and 64 nmol for M. incognita and M. javanica, respectively. In a phytotoxicity assay, medium-chain fatty acids caused a decrease of 38-52% in root length and 50-60% in leaf length of L. perenne, but no effects were observed on S. lycopersicum. This study highlights the importance of the genus Eugenia as a source of bioactive metabolites for plant pest management.

- Study of Precatalyst Degradation Leading to the Discovery of a New Ru0 Precatalyst for Hydrogenation and Dehydrogenation
-
The complex Ru-MACHO (1) is a widely used precatalyst for hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions under basic conditions. In an attempt to identify the active catalyst form, 1 was reacted with a strong base. The formation of previously unreported species was observed by NMR and mass spectrometry. This observation indicated that complex 1 quickly degraded under basic conditions when no substrate was present. X-ray crystallography enabled the identification of three complexes as products of this degradation of complex 1. These complexes suggested degradation pathways which included ligand cleavage and reassembly, along with reduction of the ruthenium atom. One of the decomposition products, the Ru0 complex [Ru(N(CH2CH2PPh2)3)CO] (5), was prepared independently and studied. 5 was found to be active, entirely additive-free, in the acceptorless dehydrogenation of aliphatic alcohols to esters. The hydrogenation of esters catalyzed by 5 was also demonstrated under base-free conditions with methanol as an additive. Protic substrates were shown to add reversibly to complex 5, generating RuII-hydrido species, thus presenting a rare example of reversible oxidative addition from Ru0 to RuII and reductive elimination from RuII to Ru0.

- Development and Applications of Transesterification Reactions Catalyzed by N-Heterocyclic Olefins
-
A novel method to utilize N-heterocyclic olefins (NHOs), the alkylidene derivatives of N-heterocycic carbenes, as organocatalysts to promote transesterification reactions has been developed. Because of their strong Br?nsted/Lewis basicity, NHOs can enhance the nucleophilicity of alcohols for their acylation reactions with carboxylic esters. This transformation can be employed in industrially relevant processes such as the production of biodiesel, the depolymerization of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) from plastic bottles for recycling purposes, and the ring-opening polymerization of cyclic esters to form biodegradable polymers such as polylactide (PLA) and polycaprolactone (PCL).

- Use of Lecitase-Ultra immobilized on styrene-divinylbenzene beads as catalyst of esterification reactions: Effects of ultrasounds
-
Abstract In this work it was evaluated for the first time, the ester synthesis catalyzed by the phospholipase Lecitase-Ultra immobilized styrene-divinylbenzene beads (MCI-Lecitase), comparing the mechanical stirring and the ultrasonic energy. It was studied the specificity of the enzyme using carboxylic acids from C4 to C18, as well as the effects of alcohol chain, organic solvents, biocatalyst content, reaction temperature and substrate concentration. Caprylic and myristic acids were those with the highest reaction rates and yields, using ethanol as substrate. The shorter the alcohol chain, the higher the enzyme activity. Regarding the secondary alcohols, while MCI-Lecitase had no activity versus isopropanol, using 2-pentanol the activity was similar to that with 1-pentanol. Comparing the agitation systems, MCI-Lecitase presented an initial reaction rate more than 2-times higher in the ultrasound-assisted reaction than under traditional mechanical stirring. Moreover, under ultrasonic energy the maximum rate was achieved using 0.5 M of substrates, while under mechanical stirring the maximum enzyme activity was reached at 0.3 M of substrates. Concerning the operational stability, MCI-Lecitase was quite unstable, losing its activity after 6 reaction cycles. By adding molecular sieves in the reaction medium, MCI-Lecitase retained 30% of its initial activity after 6 cycles.

- A General and mild catalytic α-alkylation of unactivated esters using Alcohols
-
Catalytic α-alkylation of esters with primary alcohols is a desirable process because it uses low-toxicity agents and generates water as the by-product. Reported herein is a NCP pincer/Ir catalyst which is highly efficient for α-alkylation of a broad scope of unactivated esters under mild reaction conditions. For the first time, alcohols alkylate unactivated α-substituted acyclic esters, lactones, and even methyl and ethyl acetates. This method can be applied to the synthesis of carboxylic acid derivatives with diverse structures and functional groups, some of which would be impossible to access by conventional enolate alkylations with alkyl halides. In a pinch: An NCP pincer/iridium catalyst is highly efficient for the α-alkylation of unactivated esters using alcohol under mild reaction conditions. The reaction is simple, clean, and scalable (1-10 mmol), and the scope with respect to the ester is wide.

- Cross-coupling of alkyl halides with aryl or alkyl Grignards catalyzed by dinuclear Ni(ii) complexes containing functionalized tripodal amine-pyrazolyl ligands
-
Structurally distinctive dinuclear Ni(ii) complexes with furan or thiophene tethered amine-pyrazolyl tripodal hybrid ligands have been synthesized and crystallographically characterized. All complexes are catalytically active towards cross-coupling of aryl/alkyl Grignard reagents with β-H containing alkyl halides at room temperature in the presence of N,N,N',N'- tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA). The catalytic efficacy of the complexes is dependent on the tether substituent at the central amine. Two species, Ni(ii) TMEDA and Mg(ii) TMEDA complexes, have been isolated from the catalytic reaction mixtures under different conditions. Some ligand-stabilized Ni(ii) and Mg(ii) bimetallic species have also been identified in the ESI-MS spectra.

- Specific enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis and synthesis in aqueous and organic medium using biocatalysts with lipase activity from Aspergillus niger MYA 135
-
In the present study, the specific hydrolytic activity of three biocatalysts such as the constitutive mycelium-bound lipase, the induced mycelium-bound lipase and the lyophilized induced supernatant from A. niger MYA 135 was evaluated in both aqueous and organic media.A direct correlation between activity in water and n-hexane was not observed for the same hydrolytic reaction. The n-hexane/water activity ratio (RO/A) was applied to characterize the activity in organic medium. The three biocatalysts showed RO/A values higher than 1 for hydrolysis of long-chain fatty acid esters, demonstrating a higher specific hydrolytic activity in organic solvent than in water. A different behavior was observed during hydrolysis of middle-chain fatty acid esters, which was higher in aqueous medium (R O/Adw) observed in a reaction mixture containing propanol and p-nitrophenyl laurate. Finally, both p-nitrophenyl caprate (C10) and p-nitrophenyl laurate (C12) were preferentially methanolized by the lyophilized induced supernatant, being this lipase activity the most specific biocatalyst preparation under transesterification conditions. A selectivity-based analysis of each lipase preparation toward transesterification or hydrolysis in organic medium was evaluated as well. Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2012.

Various derivatives of decanoic acid (CD) have been synthesized and evaluated against Gram positive B. subtilis, S. aureus and Gram negative E. coli bacteria as well as against fungi C. albicans and A. niger. Quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) models for antimicrobial activities were developed using multiple linear regression and cross validated by leave one out (LOO) approach. QSAR studies indicated that activity against Gram positive bacteria was governed by lipophilicity of the compounds while topological steric nature of the molecule was deciding factor for antifungal activity. Further, in silico ADMET studies showed that compounds CD12, 19, 20 and 23 could be explored further for other activities.

The esterification of carboxylic acids with alcohols proceeded efficienly with hydrous zirconium oxide to give the corresponding esters in the vapor phase, in the liquid phase, and in an autoclave.The steric hindrance of carboxylic acids and alcohols affected the esterification by lowering the reactivity.With a rise in the reaction temperature, the conversion of the carboxylic acid increased.The dehydration of alcohols was prevented by using hydrous zirconium oxide in spite of the high reaction temperature.The reaction rate is first-order with respect to the concentration of the catalyst and an alcohol and is inversely proportional to thta of the carboxylic acid.Transesterification also proceeded efficiently.
