How Inter- and Intramolecular Reactions Dominate the Formation of Products in Lignin Pyrolysis
Custodis, Victoria B. F.,Hemberger, Patrick,van Bokhoven, Jeroen A.
, p. 8658 - 8668 (2017)
One of the key challenges in renewable chemical production is the conversion of lignin, especially by fast pyrolysis. The complexity of the lignin pyrolysis process has hindered the elucidation of the mechanism, inhibiting further industrial implementation. By combining pyrolysis of model compounds (4-phenoxyphenol and 2-methoxy-phenoxybenzene) with lignin bond characteristics both under vacuum and under realistic pressure conditions, the roles of inter- and intramolecular reactions were established. On the one hand, the stable 4-O-5 ether bond enables, without breaking, C?C bond formation and even directly forms naphthalene depending on the position and type of the substituent. p-Benzoquinone intermediates, on the other hand, are highly unstable at ambient pressure and directly decompose into coke and carbon monoxide. The system pressure (radical concentration) plays a crucial role in the dominant reaction mechanism by initiating intramolecular reactions, interfering with intramolecular reactions. H-transfer and recombination reactions suppress the decarbonylation of phenoxy radicals, thus yielding a very different product distribution.

We have designed a functionalized metal-organic framework (MOF) of UiO topology as a support, with an extremely high surface area, adjustable pore sizes and stable crystalline coordination polymeric structure and implanted copper (Cu) nanoparticles thereon. The core three dimensional Zr-derived MOF (UiO-66-NH2) was modified with a biguanidine moiety following a covalent post-functionalization approach. The morphological and physicochemical features of the material were determined using analytical methods such as FT-IR, SEM, TEM, EDX, atomic mapping, XRD and ICP-OES. The SEM and XRD results justified the unaffected morphology of Zr-MOF after structural modifications. The as-synthesized UiO-66-biguanidine/Cu nanocomposite was catalytically explored in the aryl and heteroaryl Buchwald-Hartwig C-N and Ullmann type C-O cross coupling reactions with excellent yields. A library of biaryl amine and biaryl ethers was synthesized over the catalyst under mild and green conditions. Furthermore, the catalyst was isolated by centrifugation and recycled 11 times with no significant copper leaching or change in its activity.

Herein, we describe a synthetic approach for arylation that exploits the in situ formation and reaction of an unsymmetrical diaryliodonium salt. In this way, aryl iodides are used as reagents in a metal-free reaction with phenols, and a trimethoxyphenyl (TMP) group is used as a “dummy” group to facilitate transfer of a wide range of aryl moieties. The scope of aryl electrophiles and phenol nucleophiles is broad (>30 examples) and the yields are high (52–95%, 80% avg.). One-pot coupling reactions avoid the synthesis of diaryliodonium salts and provide opportunities for sequential reactions and novel chemoselectivity. (Figure presented.).

Guillermo Calleja and co-workers from @urjc describe URJC-1-MOF as a new heterogeneous recyclable catalyst for c-heteroatom coupling reactions. The capacity of copper-based URJC-1-MOF as a MOF catalyst in cross-coupling reactions has been evaluated, focusing on the Chan-Lam-Evans arylation-type reactions on amines and alcohols without extra additives or ligands. The extraordinary chemical and structural stability of URJC-1-MOF and its good specific surface, make this material a promising alternative to homogeneous Cu (II) catalysts for cross-coupling reactions. URJC-1-MOF showed a remarkable catalytic activity for cross-coupling C?N and C?O reactions, higher than other heterogeneous and homogeneous copper-based catalyst, such as CuO, HKUST-1, Cu?MOF-74, Cu(OAc)2 and CuSO4?5H2O. Moreover, its easy recovery by simple filtration and reusability in successive runs without any loss of activity and stability, demonstrates the potential of URJC-1-MOF as an alternative catalyst for this kind of reactions in different chemical media of industrial interest.

Catalytic hydrogenolysis of diaryl ethers is achieved by using ruthenium nanoparticles immobilized on an acidic supported ionic liquid phase (Ru@SILP-SO 3 H) as a multifunctional catalyst. The catalyst components are assembled through a molecular approach ensuring synergistic action of the metal and acid functions. The resulting catalyst is highly active for the hydrogenolysis of various diaryl ethers. For symmetric substrates such as diphenyl ether, hydrogenolysis is followed by full hydrodeoxygenation producing the corresponding cycloalkanes as the main products. For unsymmetric substrates, the cleavage of the C-O bond is regioselective and occurs adjacent to the unsubstituted phenyl ring. As hydrogenation of benzene is faster than hydrodeoxygenation over the Ru@SILP-SO 3 H catalyst, controlled mixtures of cyclohexane and substituted phenols are accessible with good selectivity. Application of Ru@SILP-SO 3 H catalyst in continuous-flow hydrogenolysis of 2-methoxy-4-methylphenoxybenzene is demonstrated with use of commercial equipment.
CuCl heterogenized on metformine-modified multi walled carbon nanotubes as a recyclable nanocatalyst for Ullmann-type C-O and C-N coupling reactions

, p. 2782 - 2789 (2018/02/19)
Herein, a novel MWCNTs-Met/CuCl nanocatalyst synthesis method by metformine covalent grafting on the surface of carbon nanotubes and subsequent coordination with a CuCl catalyst is described. The nanocatalyst formation was analyzed by FTIR, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Raman spectroscopy and ICP analysis. The nanocatalyst morphology was examined by transmission and scanning electron microscopies (TEM and SEM). Moreover, in the N-arylation of anilines and indole, the nanocatalyst (MWCNTs-Met/CuCl) could be successfully used by formation of intermolecular C(aryl)-N bonds of the relevant aryl halides (Ar-I, Ar-Br, Ar-Cl) with amines by coupling reactions of Ullmann-type. The O-arylation of substituted phenols is also promoted by this heterogeneous copper catalyst with different aryl iodides and bromides. Additionally, without any considerable loss in activity, the novel catalyst was recovered and recycled several times.

A cellulose-supported N-heterocyclic carbene Ag(I) complex has been synthesized by covalent grafting of ferrocenyl ionic liquid in the matrix of cellulose followed by metallation with silver oxide. The complex was employed as a heterogeneous catalyst in the synthesis of diaryl ethers. Reactions of a variety of phenols with aryl halides afford corresponding diaryl ethers in moderate to good yields. Recyclability experiments were executed successfully for five consecutive runs.

MPC1001 is a potent anticancer natural product that contains a violaceic acid moiety. Herein we report the total synthesis of the natural product violaceic acid and its derivative. In this approach, a triazene-directed Ullman coupling proved to be highly effective. We converted the triazene to a hydroxy group by means of a palladium-catalyzed reaction. Treatment of the triazene with trifluoroacetic acid generated an arenediazonium ion that produced an aryl radical, leading to the protodediazoniation and a tricyclic product.

Ullmann-type diaryl ether synthesis was performed under mild conditions in DMF/K2CO3using a pyridinefunctionalized silane as a ligand. The productswere obtained in good yields. This method tolerates a variety of functional groups and is effective in the synthesis of hindered diaryl ethers and heteroaryl ethers.

CsF/clinoptilolite was found to be an efficient solid base catalyst for both SNAr and Ullmann ether reactions. A general and efficient one-step procedure was developed for the synthesis of biaryl ethers via direct coupling of electron-deficient aryl halides to phenols using CsF/clinoptilolite. The protocol was also applied to electron-rich aryl halides by addition of a catalytic amount of copper oxide nanoparticles. Both SNAr and Ullmann reactions were rapid and provided good to excellent yields.
