The oxidation of trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol, methyl α-D-glucopyranoside and β-cyclodextrin has been studied, using a heterogeneous oxidation system in water at 50-75°C. Molecular oxygen at 15-20 bar was used as the oxidant, in combination with a bismuth-rich ruthenium pyrochlore oxide as the catalyst. Both oxidative cleavage of the vicinal diols and oxidation of the primary hydroxyl groups occurred. HPLC and 13C NMR were used to analyse the complex product mixtures. The oxidation method is successful for glycol cleavage in small carbohydrates but not for polysaccharides.

Multicomponent self-assembly, wherein two unique donor precursors are combined with a single metal acceptor instead of the more common two-component assembly, can be achieved by selecting Lewis-basic sites and metal nodes that select for heteroligated coordination spheres. Platinum(II) ions show a thermodynamic preference for mixed pyridyl/carboxylate coordination environments and are thus suitable for such designs. The use of three or more unique building blocks increases the structural complexity of supramolecules. Herein, we describe the synthesis and characterization of rectangular prismatic supramolecular coordination complexes (SCCs) with two faces occupied by porphyrin molecules, motivated by the search for new multichromophore complexes with promising light-harvesting properties. These prisms are obtained from the self-assembly of a 90° Pt(II) acceptor with a meso-substituted tetrapyridylporphyrin (TPyP) and dicarboxylate ligands. The generality of this self-assembly reaction is demonstrated using five dicarboxylate ligands, two based on a rigid central phenyl ring and three alkyl-spaced variants, to form a total of five free-base and five Zn-metallated porphyrin prisms. All 10 SCCs are characterized by 31P and 1H multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, confirming the structure of each self-assembly and the stoichiometry of formation. The photophysical properties of the resulting SCCs were investigated revealing that the absorption and emission properties of the free-base and metallated porphyrin prisms preserve the spectral features associated with free TPyP.
Optimization of a cyclohexanone distillation stage in the presence of alkali

experimental part, p. 1767 - 1771 (2012/02/05)
Kinetics of two reactions: hydrolysis of esters and condensation of cyclohexanone in an alkaline environment, was studied in model mixtures. Derived kinetic equations were used to assess optimal parameters of proceeding cyclohexanone distillation in the presence of alkali.
