- Nickel-catalyzed carboxylation of aryl iodides with lithium formate through catalytic CO recycling
-
A protocol for the Ni-catalyzed carboxylation of aryl iodides with formate has been developed with good functional group compatibility for the synthesis of a variety of aromatic carboxylic acids under mild conditions. The reaction tolerates other functionalities for cross-coupling, such as aryl bromide, aryl chloride, aryl tosylate, and aryl pinacol boronate. The reaction proceeds through a carbonylation process with in situ generated carbon monoxide in the presence of a catalytic amount of acetic anhydride and lithium formate, avoiding the use of gaseous CO. The strategy of CO recycling in catalytic amounts is critical for the success of the reaction.

- Benzoin type photoinitiator for free radical polymerization
-
Benzoin, a popular photoinitiator for free radical polymerization of vinyl monomers, was improved by introduction of two methyl thioether substituents. This new benzoin derivative showed an about 50 times higher light absorption in the near-UV spectral region and performed better than the unsubstituted benzoin in polymerization experiments in bulk solutions or films of acrylate monomers when low initiator concentrations are used. Laser flash photolysis, low temperature luminescence experiments and photoproduct studies by mass spectrometry suggest that a slow α-cleavage mechanism (kα = 2.2 × 105 s-1) from the electronic triplet state with a quantum yield of 0.1 is the primary photoreaction to generate the initiating free radicals.

- Effects of a sulfur substituent on the behavior and generation mode of aroyloxyl radicals in the photolysis of diaroyl peroxides
-
Continuous light irradiation of bis(p-methylthiobenzoyl) peroxide (p-MeSBPO) at 300 nm in acetonitrile gave only p-methylthiobenzoic acid as a product. On pulsed laser photolysis the absorption spectrum due to intermediate p-methylthiobenzoyloxyl radicals was observed in the region 400-800 nm, and the radical yield was significantly decreased in the presence of 1,3-pentadiene or oxygen as a triplet quencher. The results indicate that p-MeSBPO is decomposed from the excited triplet state and the radicals exclusively undergo hydrogen-atom abstraction from the solvent. The origin of the effect is discussed on the basis of experimental and theoretical results.

- Mechanochemical Grignard Reactions with Gaseous CO2 and Sodium Methyl Carbonate**
-
A one-pot, three-step protocol for the preparation of Grignard reagents from organobromides in a ball mill and their subsequent reactions with gaseous carbon dioxide (CO2) or sodium methyl carbonate providing aryl and alkyl carboxylic acids in up to 82 % yield is reported. Noteworthy are the short reaction times and the significantly reduced solvent amounts [2.0 equiv. for liquid assisted grinding (LAG) conditions]. Unexpectedly, aryl bromides with methoxy substituents lead to symmetric ketones as major products.

- Modulation of photochemical oxidation of thioethers to sulfoxides or sulfones using an aromatic ketone as the photocatalyst
-
We have developed an eco-friendly and chemo-selective photocatalytic synthesis of sulfoxides or sulfones via oxidation of sulfides (thioethers) at ambient temperature using air or O2 as the oxidant. An inexpensive thioxanthone was used as the photocatalyst. Our method offers excellent chemical yields and good functional group tolerance. The hydrogen bonding between hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) and sulfoxides may play an important role in minimizing the over-oxidization of sulfoxides.

- Direct 3-Acylation of Indolizines by Carboxylic Acids for the Practical Synthesis of Red Light-Releasable Caged Carboxylic Acids
-
To enhance the practicality of photouncaging system using 3-acyl-2-methoxyindolizines, direct acylation of indolizines with carboxylic acids was developed using condensation reagents, generally used for peptide coupling. This method allowed for caging a broad range of carboxylic acids with indolizines. The method enabled a facile synthesis of water-soluble caged bioactive carboxylic acids having an intramolecular photosensitizer. The efficient release of carboxylic acids from the synthesized caged compounds upon red light irradiation was confirmed in neutral buffered solutions.

- Soluble/MOF-Supported Palladium Single Atoms Catalyze the Ligand-, Additive-, and Solvent-Free Aerobic Oxidation of Benzyl Alcohols to Benzoic Acids
-
Metal single-atom catalysts (SACs) promise great rewards in terms of metal atom efficiency. However, the requirement of particular conditions and supports for their synthesis, together with the need of solvents and additives for catalytic implementation, often precludes their use under industrially viable conditions. Here, we show that palladium single atoms are spontaneously formed after dissolving tiny amounts of palladium salts in neat benzyl alcohols, to catalyze their direct aerobic oxidation to benzoic acids without ligands, additives, or solvents. With this result in hand, the gram-scale preparation and stabilization of Pd SACs within the functional channels of a novel methyl-cysteine-based metal-organic framework (MOF) was accomplished, to give a robust and crystalline solid catalyst fully characterized with the help of single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). These results illustrate the advantages of metal speciation in ligand-free homogeneous organic reactions and the translation into solid catalysts for potential industrial implementation.

- Mirror Symmetry Breaking and Network Formation in Achiral Polycatenars with Thioether Tail
-
Mirror symmetry breaking in systems composed of achiral molecules is of importance for the design of functional materials for technological applications as well as for the understanding of the mechanisms of spontaneous emergence of chirality. Herein, we report the design and molecular self-assembly of two series of rod-like achiral polycatenar molecules derived from a π-conjugated 5,5’-diphenyl-2,2’-bithiophene core with a fork-like triple alkoxylated end and a variable single alkylthio chain at the other end. In both series of liquid crystalline materials, differing in the chain length at the trialkoxylated end, helical self-assembly of the π-conjugated rods in networks occurs, leading to wide temperature ranges (>200 K) of bicontinuous cubic network phases, in some cases being stable even around ambient temperatures. The achiral bicontinuous cubic Ia (Formula presented.) d phase (gyroid) is replaced upon alkylthio chain elongation by a spontaneous mirror symmetry broken bicontinuous cubic phase (I23) and a chiral isotropic liquid phase (Iso1[*]). Further chain elongation results in removing the I23 phase and the re-appearance of the Ia (Formula presented.) d phase with different pitch lengths. In the second series an additional tetragonal phase separates the two cubic phase types.

- Ni-Catalyzed Carboxylation of C(sp2)-S Bonds with CO2: Evidence for the Multifaceted Role of Zn
-
Nickel-catalyzed reductive carboxylation reactions of aryl electrophiles typically require the use of metallic reducing agents. At present, the prevailing perception is that these serve as both a source of electrons and as a source of Lewis acids that may aid CO2 insertion into the Ni-C bond. Herein, we provide evidence for the in situ formation of organometallic species from the metallic reductant, a step that has either been ruled out or has been unexplored in catalytic carboxylation reactions with metal powder reductants. Specifically, we demonstrate that Zn(0) acts as a reductant and that Zn(II) generates arylzinc species that might play a role in the C(sp2)-S carboxylation of arylsulfonium salts. Overall, the reductive Ni-catalyzed C(sp2)-S carboxylation reaction proceeds under mild conditions in a non-amide solvent, displays a wide substrate scope, and can be applied to the formal para C-H carboxylation of arenes.

- Exploration of New Biomass-Derived Solvents: Application to Carboxylation Reactions
-
A range of hitherto unexplored biomass-derived chemicals have been evaluated as new sustainable solvents for a large variety of CO2-based carboxylation reactions. Known biomass-derived solvents (biosolvents) are also included in the study and the results are compared with commonly used solvents for the reactions. Biosolvents can be efficiently applied in a variety of carboxylation reactions, such as Cu-catalyzed carboxylation of organoboranes and organoboronates, metal-catalyzed hydrocarboxylation, borocarboxylation, and other related reactions. For many of these reactions, the use of biosolvents provides comparable or better yields than the commonly used solvents. The best biosolvents identified are the so far unexplored candidates isosorbide dimethyl ether, acetaldehyde diethyl acetal, rose oxide, and eucalyptol, alongside the known biosolvent 2-methyltetrahydrofuran. This strategy was used for the synthesis of the commercial drugs Fenoprofen and Flurbiprofen.

- Palladium supported on a novel ordered mesoporous polypyrrole/carbon nanocomposite as a powerful heterogeneous catalyst for the aerobic oxidation of alcohols to carboxylic acids and ketones on water
-
Preparation of an ordered mesoporous polypyrrole/carbon (PPy/OMC) composite has been described through a two-step nanocasting process using KIT-6 as a template. Characterization of the PPy/OMC nanocomposite by various analysis methods such as TEM, XRD, TGA, SEM and N2 sorption confirmed the preparation of a material with ordered mesoporous structure, uniform pore size distribution, high surface area and high stability. This nanocomposite was then used for the immobilization of palladium nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were almost uniformly distributed on the support with a narrow particle size of 20-25 nm, confirmed by various analysis methods. Performance of the Pd?PPy/OMC catalyst was evaluated in the aerobic oxidation of various primary and secondary alcohols on water as a green solvent, giving the corresponding carboxylic acids and ketones in high yields and excellent selectivity. The catalyst could also be reused for at least 10 reaction runs without losing its catalytic activity and selectivity. High catalytic efficiency of the catalyst can be attributed to a strong synergism between the PPy/OMC and that of supported Pd nanoparticles.

The facile oxidation of alcohols to carboxylate salts and H2 is achieved using a simple and readily accessible cobalt pincer catalyst (NNNHtBuCoBr2). The reaction follows an acceptorless dehydrogenation pathway and displays good functional group tolerance. The amine-amide metal-ligand cooperation in cobalt catalyst is suggested to facilitate this transformation. The mechanistic studies indicate that in-situ-formed aldehydes react with a base through a Cannizzaro-type pathway, resulting in potassium hemiacetolate, which further undergoes catalytic dehydrogenation to provide the carboxylate salts and H2

- Magnetic crosslinked copoly(ionic liquid) nanohydrogel supported palladium nanoparticles as efficient catalysts for the selective aerobic oxidation of alcohols
-
Nowadays it is still a great sustainable processes challenge to produce efficient, selective and easy magnetic recovery and recycling catalysts for oxidation of alcohols using air as the oxidant. In this work, a new magnetic nanohydrogel comprising [DABCO-allyl][Br] ionic liquid, allyl alcohol and N,N’-methylenebis(acrylamide) is used for stabilization of small and highly uniform palladium nanoparticles of 3–4 nm size MXCPILNHG@Pd. This material has been characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), atomic adsorption spectroscopy (AAS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), SEM-Map, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). According to optimization of cross-linking degree and ratio of DABCO-IL, MXCPILNHG-2@Pd is found as a highly selective catalyst in oxidations of primary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes in toluene and to acids in water. Furthermore, secondary alcohols were reacted efficiently to the corresponding ketones in both toluene and water. Catalyst is magnetically recovered and recycled for several times in both toluene and water and the reused catalysts are characterized by TEM and XPS.

- Zinc Oxide-Catalyzed Dehydrogenation of Primary Alcohols into Carboxylic Acids
-
Zinc oxide has been developed as a catalyst for the dehydrogenation of primary alcohols into carboxylic acids and hydrogen gas. The reaction is performed in mesitylene solution in the presence of potassium hydroxide, followed by workup with hydrochloric acid. The transformation can be applied to both benzylic and aliphatic primary alcohols and the catalytically active species was shown to be a homogeneous compound by a hot filtration test. Dialkylzinc and strongly basic zinc salts also catalyze the dehydrogenation with similar results. The mechanism is believed to involve the formation of a zinc alkoxide which degrades into the aldehyde and a zinc hydride. The latter reacts with the alcohol to form hydrogen gas and regenerate the zinc alkoxide. The degradation of a zinc alkoxide into the aldehyde upon heating was confirmed experimentally. The aldehyde can then undergo a Cannizzaro reaction or a Tishchenko reaction, which in the presence of hydroxide leads to the carboxylic acid.

- Iridium catalysts for acceptorless dehydrogenation of alcohols to carboxylic acids: Scope and mechanism

We introduce iridium-based conditions for the conversion of primary alcohols to potassium carboxylates (or carboxylic acids) in the presence of potassium hydroxide and either [Ir(2-PyCH2(C4H5N2))(COD)]OTf (1) or [Ir(2-PyCH2PBu2t)(COD)]OTf (2). The method provides both aliphatic and benzylic carboxylates in high yield and with outstanding functional group tolerance. We illustrate the application of this method to a diverse variety of primary alcohols, including those involving heterocycles and even free amines. Complex 2 reacts with alcohols to form the crystallographically characterized catalytic intermediates [IrH(η1,η3-C8H12)(2-PyCH2PtBu2)] (2a) and [Ir2H3(CO)(2-PyCH2PtBu2){μ-(C5H3N)CH2PtBu2}] (2c). The unexpected similarities in reactivities of 1 and 2 in this reaction, along with synthetic studies on several of our iridium intermediates, enable us to form a general proposal of the mechanisms of catalyst activation that govern the disparate reactivities of 1 and 2, respectively, in glycerol and formic acid dehydrogenation. Moreover, careful analysis of the organic intermediates in the oxidation sequence enable new insights into the role of Tishchenko and Cannizzaro reactions in the overall oxidation.

- Hydrogen bonding liquid crystalline benzoic acids with alkylthio groups: Phase transition behavior and insights into the cybotactic nematic phase
-
A simple but novel class of hydrogen bonding liquid crystalline benzoic acids with alkylthio (or alkylsulfanyl; SR) groups was established. In general, although it is difficult for laterally non-substituted rod-like molecules with an alkylthio group to form some mesophases, the present molecules exclusively form a nematic (N) regime, owing to spontaneous carboxylic dimerization. It was found that the number of carbons in the alkylthio groups strongly correlated with transition temperatures as well as nematogenic stability: odd-even effects. Even-members displayed wider monotropic and enantiotropic N phases, despite the fact that almost all odd-members showed either none or only monotropic-narrower ones. Interestingly, their thermal transition temperatures were lower compared to those for alkoxy (OR) analogues, on account of the small angle (or large bend) of the C-S-C bond as well as the low electron density on their aromatic ring due to the weak electron donor properties of alkylthio groups. Additionally, in-depth wide-angle X-ray diffraction measurements revealed that an alkylthio analogue exhibited significantly enhanced smectic clusters formed in the N regime (or Ncyb phase) as well as the cluster type close to smectic (Sm) A, in comparison with an alkoxy analogue exhibiting a clear SmC-type cluster. The results indicate that a robust S?S intermolecular interaction for an alkylthio group into a mesogen affects the kind of smectic cluster in the Ncyb phase.

- Nitrous Oxide as a Hydrogen Acceptor for the Dehydrogenative Coupling of Alcohols

The oxidation of alcohols with N2O as the hydrogen acceptor was achieved with low catalyst loadings of a rhodium complex that features a cooperative bis(olefin)amido ligand under mild conditions. Two different methods enable the formation of either the corresponding carboxylic acid or the ester. N2 and water are the only by-products. Mechanistic studies supported by DFT calculations suggest that the oxygen atom of N2O is transferred to the metal center by insertion into the Rh-H bond of a rhodium amino hydride species, generating a rhodium hydroxy complex as a key intermediate.

- Dehydrogenative Synthesis of Carboxylic Acids from Primary Alcohols and Hydroxide Catalyzed by a Ruthenium N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complex
-
Primary alcohols have been reacted with hydroxide and the ruthenium complex [RuCl2(IiPr)(p-cymene)] to afford carboxylic acids and dihydrogen. The dehydrogenative reaction is performed in toluene, which allows for a simple isolation of the products by precipitation and extraction. The transformation can be applied to a range of benzylic and saturated aliphatic alcohols containing halide and (thio)ether substituents, while olefins and ester groups are not compatible with the reaction conditions. Benzylic alcohols undergo faster conversion than other substrates, and a competing Cannizzaro reaction is most likely involved in this case. The kinetic isotope effect was determined to be 0.67 using 1-butanol as the substrate. A plausible catalytic cycle was characterized by DFT/B3LYP-D3 and involved coordination of the alcohol to the metal, β-hydride elimination, hydroxide attack on the coordinated aldehyde, and a second β-hydride elimination to furnish the carboxylate.

We have developed a technique for the aqueous aerobic flow oxidation of alcohols in a continuous-flow reactor containing platinum nanoparticles dispersed on an amphiphilic polystyrene-poly(ethylene glycol) resin (ARP-Pt). Various primary and secondary alcohols including aliphatic, aromatic and heteroaromatic alcohols were efficiently oxidized within 73 seconds in a flowing aqueous system at 100-120°C under 40-70 bar of the system pressure to give the corresponding carboxylic acids and ketones, respectively, in up to 99% yield. Benzaldehydes could be also prepared selectively from benzyl alcohols by conducting the flow oxidation under the standard conditions in the presence of triethylamine. Moreover, a practical gram-scale synthesis of surfactants was realized in the aqueous aerobic continuous flow oxidation for 36-116 hours. This aerobic flow oxidation system provides a safe, clean, green, rapid and efficient practical method for oxidizing alcohols.

The oxidation of thirty-six ortho-, meta- and para-substituted benzaldehydes by bis(pyridine)silver permanganate (BPSP) resulted in the formation of the corresponding benzoic acids. The reaction is first order with respect to both BPSP and aldehydes. The reaction is catalyzed by hydrogen ions. The rate of reaction increases with an increase in the amount of acetic acid in the solvent. The correlation analyses of the rate of oxidation of thirty-six aldehydes were performed in terms of Charton's LDR and LDRS equations. The rate of oxidation of meta- and para-substituted benzaldehydes showed excellent correlation with Charton's LDR equation. The rates of ortho-compounds showed excellent correlation with LDRS equation. The oxidation para-compounds is more susceptible to the delocalization effect. The oxidation of ortho- and meta-compounds exhibited a greater dependence on the field effect. The polar reaction constants are negative indicating an electron-deficient centre in the rate-determining step. A mechanism involving a nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl group by a permanganate-oxygen and a subsequent hydride transfer has been proposed.

- Structure-Reactivity correlation in the oxidation of substituted benzaldehydes by tetraethylammonium chlorochromate
-
Oxidation of 36 monosubstituted benzaldehydes by tetraethylammonium chlorochromate in dimethyl sulphoxide, leads to the formation of corresponding benzoic acids. The reaction is of first order with respect to chlorochromate and aldehydes. The reaction is promoted by H+; the H+ dependence has the form kobs = a + b[H+]. The oxidation of duteriated benzaldehyde exhibits substantial primary kinetic isotope effect. The reaction was studied in 19 different organic solvents and the effect of solvent was analyzed using Taft's and Swain's multiparametric equations. The rates of the oxidation of para- and meta-substituted benzaldehydes showed excellent correlation in terms of Charton's triparametric LDR equation, whereas the oxidation of ortho-substituted benzaldehydes were correlated well with tetraperametric LDRS equation. The oxidation of para-substituted benzaldehydes is more susceptible to the delocalized effect than is the oxidation of ortho- and meta- substituted compounds, which display a greater dependence on the field effect. The positive value of h suggests the presence of an electron-deficient reaction centre in the rate-determining step. The reaction is subjected to steric acceleration by the orthosubstituents. A suitable mechanism has been proposed.

- A two-step ball milling method synthesizes and purifies α,β-unsaturated esters
-
Over the last decade, solvent-free methods have been gaining interest as replacements for traditional organic chemistry techniques. While solvent-free methods are well known for many processes, a simple, solvent-free purification procedure that supplements them does not exist. We report the solvent-free synthesis of α,β-unsaturated esters using a solvent-free Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons (HWE) reaction using high-speed ball milling (HSBM). We were able to perform the HWE reaction on a variety of aldehydes, and isolate their respective a,b-unsaturated esters in high yields, purities, and diastereoselectivities.

- Correlation analysis of reactivity in the oxidation of substituted benzaldehydes by morpholinium chlorochromate
-
Oxidation of thirty six monosubstituted benzaldehydes by morpholinium chlorochromate (MCC) in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO), leads to the formation of corresponding benzoic acids. The reaction is of first order with respect to MCC. A Michaelis-Menten type kinetics is observed with respect to benzaldehydes. The reaction is promoted by hydrogen ions; the hydrogen-ion dependence has the form kobs = a + b [H+]. The oxidation of [2H] benzaidehyde (PhCDO) exhibited a substantial primary kinetic isotope effect. The reaction was studied in nineteen organic solvents and the effect of solvent was analysed using Taft's and Swain's multi-parametric equations. The rates of the oxidation of para- and meta-substituted benzaldehydes showed excellent correlation in terms of Charton's triparametric LDR equation, whereas the oxidation of ortho-substituted benzaldehydes were correlated well with tetraparametric LDRS equation. The oxidation of para-substituted benzaldehydes is more susceptible to the delocalized effect than is the oxidation of ortho- and meta-substituted compounds, which display a greater dependence on the field effect. The positive value of η suggests the presence of an electron-deficient reaction centre in the rate-determining step. The reaction is subjected to steric acceleration by the ortho-substituents.

- Palladium-catalyzed direct carboxylation of aryl bromides with carbon dioxide
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) A novel protocol for the direct carbon dioxide insertion (CO2) into aryl halides in a catalytic manner is presented herein. Unlike other carboxylation methods using CO2, there is no need for the synthesis of the corresponding organometallic intermediates. Additionally, and in contrast to the well-established carbonylation processes, our protocol does not use highly toxic CO for the preparation of benzoic acids. Furthermore, this method is distinguished by its mild conditions, allowing the tolerance of a wide range of functional groups and substitution patterns. The crucial step of the process involves a challenging catalytic CO2 insertion into Pd-C bonds. Copyright

Oxidation of thirty six monosubstituted benzaldchydes by 2,2′-bipyridiniuin chlorochromate (BPCC) in diniethylsulphoxide (DMSO), leads to the formation of corresponding benzoic acids. The reaction is of first order with respect to both BPCC and aldehydes. The reaction is promoted by hydrogen ions; the hydrogen ion dependence has the form kobs= a + b[H+]. The oxidation of [2H]benzaldehyde (PhCDO) exhibited a substantial primary kinetic isotope effect. The reaction was studied in nineteen different organic solvents and the effect of solvent was analysed using Taft's and Swain's multi-parametric equations.

- Kinetics and mechanism of the oxidation of substituted benzaldehydes by tetrabutylammonium tribromide
-
The oxidation of thirty-six monosubstituted benzaldehydes by tetrabutylammonium tribromide (TBATB), in aqueous acetic acid solution, leads to the formation of the corresponding benzoic acids. The reaction is first order with respect to both TBATB and aldehydes. The reaction failed to induce the polymerization of acrylonitrile. There is no effect of tetrabutylammonium chloride ions on the reaction rate. The oxidation of [2H]benzaldehyde (PhCDO) indicated the presence of a substantial kinetic isotope effect. The effect of solvent composition indicated that the reaction rate increases with an increase in the polarity of the medium. The rates of oxidation of meta- and para-substituted benzaldehydes showed excellent correlations in terms of Charton's triparametric LDR equation whereas the oxidation of ortho-substituted benzaldehydes correlated well with tetraparametric LDS equation. The oxidation of para-substituted benzaldehydes is more susceptible to the delocalization effect but the oxidation of ortho- and meta-substituted compounds displayed a greater dependence on the field effect. The positive value of η suggests the presence of an electron-deficient reaction center in the rate-determining step. The reaction is subjected to steric acceleration when ortho-substituents are present.

- Highly chemoselective methylation and esterification reactions with dimethyl carbonate in the presence of NaY faujasite. The case of mercaptophenols, mercaptobenzoic acids, and carboxylic acids bearing OH substituents
-
In the presence of NaY faujasite, the reactions of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) with several ambident nucleophiles such as o- and p-mercaptophenols (1a,b), o- and p-mercaptobenzoic acids (2a,b), o- and p-hydroxybenzoic acids (3a,b), mandelic and phenyllactic acids (4, 5), have been explored under batch conditions. Highly chemoselective reactions can be performed: at 150 °C, compounds 1 and 2 undergo only a S-methylation reaction, without affecting OH and CO2H groups; at 165 °C, acids 3-5 form the corresponding methyl esters, while both their aromatic and aliphatic OH substituents are fully preserved from methylation and/or transesterification processes. Typical selectivities are of 90-98% and isolated yields of products (S-methyl derivatives and methyl esters, respectively) are in the range of 85-96%. A comparative study with K2CO3 as a catalyst is also reported. Although the base (K2CO3) turns out to be more active than the zeolite, the chemoselectivity is elusive: compounds 2a,b undergo simultaneous S-methylation and esterification reactions, and acids 3-5 yield complex mixtures of products of O-methylation, O-methoxycarbonylation, and esterification of their OH and CO2H groups, respectively. Overall, the combined use of a nontoxic reagent/solvent (DMC) and a safe promoter (NaY) imparts a genuine ecofriendly nature to the investigated synthesis.

- Metallation reactions. Part 35: A change of the regiochemistry in the metallation of (alkylthio)arenes
-
The metallation reaction of bromo(alkylthio)benzenes is described. The results show the complementarity of these reactions with the metal-hydrogen exchange reaction. In fact, monometallation of bromo(methylthio)benzenes afforded products substituted in para or meta or ortho to the thioethereal function while bimetallation led to αS,para, αS,meta and αS,ortho disubstituted products. Analogously, the monometallation of 4-bromo-(isopropylthio)benzene afforded para-monosubstituted and ortho,para-disubstituted products.

- Alkyl- and Arylthiodediazoniations of Dry Arenediazonium o-Benzenedisulfonimides. Efficient and Safe Modifications of the Stadler and Ziegler Reactions to Prepare Alkyl Aryl and Diaryl Sulfides
-
The reaction between dry arenediazonium o-benzenedisulfonimides 1 and sodium thiolates in anhydrous methanol represents an efficient and safe procedure, of general validity, for the preparation of unfunctionalized or variously functionalized alkyl aryl and diaryl sulfides. As a rule, the reaction temperature was maintained at 0-5°C for the alkylthiodediazoniations and at room temperature (20-25°C) for the arylthiodediazoniations. The sulfide yields are generally high; of the 63 considered examples, 43 gave yields greater than 80% and 13 were between 70% and 80%. Lower yields were obtained only when sterically hindered diazonium salts or thiols were used. A good amount of the o-benzenedisulfonimide (8) was always recovered from the reactions and could be reused to prepare salts 1. The copious experimental data collected in homogeneous conditions have offered several starting points for the study of the mechanism of these reactions.
