We herein report the fabrication of a bifunctional iron nanocomposite catalyst, in which two catalytically active sites of Fe-Nx and Fe phosphate, as oxidation and Lewis acid sites, were simultaneously integrated into a hierarchical N,P-dual doped porous carbon. As a bifunctional catalyst, it exhibited high efficiency for direct oxidative cleavage of alkenes into ketones or their oxidation into 1,2-diketones with a broad substrate scope and high functional group tolerance using TBHP as the oxidant in water under mild reaction conditions. Furthermore, it could be easily recovered for successive recycling without appreciable loss of activity. Mechanistic studies disclose that the direct oxidation of alkenes proceeds via the formation of an epoxide as intermediate followed by either acid-catalyzed Meinwald rearrangement to give ketones with one carbon shorter or nucleophilic ring-opening to generate 1,2-diketones in a cascade manner. This study not only opens up a fancy pathway in the rational design of Fe-N-C catalysts but also offers a simple and efficient method for accessing industrially important ketones and 1,2-diketones from alkenes in a cost-effective and environmentally benign fashion.

A practical, general and mild oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to carbonyl compounds proceeds in yields of up to 99% using SO2F2 as electrophile in DMSO as both the oxidant and the solvent at ambient temperature. No moisture- and oxygen-free conditions are required. Stoichiometric amount of inexpensive K2CO3, which generates easy to separate by-products, is used as the base. Thus, 5-gram scale runs proceeded in nearly quantitative yields by a simple filtration as the work-up. The use of a polar solvent such as DMSO, which usually promotes competing Pummerer rearrangement, is also noteworthy. This protocol is compatible with a variety of common N-, O-, and S-functional groups on (hetero)arene, alkene and alkyne substrates (68 examples). The protocol was applied (99% yield) to a formal synthesis of the important cholesterol-lowering drug Rosuvastatin. (Figure presented.).

Structure-guided directed evolution of choline oxidase has been carried out by using the oxidation of hexan-1-ol to hexanal as the target reaction. A six-amino-acid variant was identified with a 20-fold increased kcat compared to that of the wild-type enzyme. This variant enabled the oxidation of 10 mm hexanol to hexanal in less than 24 h with 100 % conversion. Furthermore, this variant showed a marked increase in thermostability with a corresponding increase in Tm of 20 °C. Improved solvent tolerance was demonstrated with organic solvents including ethyl acetate, heptane and cyclohexane, thereby enabling improved conversions to the aldehyde by up to 30 % above conversion for the solvent-free system. Despite the evolution of choline oxidase towards hexan-1-ol, this new variant also showed increased specific activities (by up to 100-fold) for around 50 primary aliphatic, unsaturated, branched, cyclic, benzylic and halogenated alcohols.

A new transition-metal-free one-pot cascade process for the direct conversion of alcohols to nitriles was developed without introducing an “additional carbon atom”. This protocol allows transformations of readily available, inexpensive, and abundant alcohols to highly valuable nitriles.

A dehydrogenative oxidation reaction of primary alcohols to aldehydes catalyzed by a simple Pd/Xantphos catalytic system was developed under an argon or nitrogen atmosphere without oxidizing agents or hydrogen acceptors. The reaction product could be easily changed: under aerobic conditions, esters were obtained in aprotic solvents, whereas the corresponding carboxylic acids were produced in aqueous media. These oxidizing processes were applicable to the efficient synthesis of useful nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds such as indole, quinazoline, and benzimidazole via intramolecular versions of this reaction from amino alcohols.
Correlation analysis of reactivity in the oxidation of substituted benzyl alcohols by benzimidazolium dichromate - A kinetic and mechanistic aspects

, p. 1207 - 1215 (2020/06/27)
The oxidation of a number of para- and meta-substituted benzyl alcohols by benzimidazolium dichromate (BIDC), in dimethyl sulphoxide, leads to the formation of the corresponding benzaldehydes. The reaction is first order with respect to each BIDC and alcohol. The reaction is catalyzed by hydrogen ions and the dependence has the form kobs = a + b[H+]. The oxidation of [1,1-2H2]benzyl alcohol exhibited the presence of a substantial kinetic isotope effect. The rates of the oxidation of meta-substituted benzyl alcohols correlated best with Taft's σ1 and σR0 constants. The para-substituted compounds exhibited excellent correlation with σ1 and σRBA values. The polar reaction constants are negative. The rate of oxidation of benzyl alcohol was determined in nineteen organic solvents. An analysis of the solvent effect by multiparametric equations indicated the greater importance of the cation-solvating power of the solvents. Suitable mechanisms have been discussed.

An efficient and simple method is reported for the cyanation on arylboronic acid using various simple/indole thiocyanates using a new IL-PdCl4 catalyst. The cascade process involves a coupling reaction without any additive to give a wide range of cyanide derivatives. Cyanation on various arylboronic acids underwent smoothly affording the corresponding arylnitriles in good to high yields.

We report the synthesis of biomass-derived functionalized aromatic chemicals from furfural, a building block nowadays available in large scale from low-cost biomass. The scientific strategy relies on a Diels–Alder/aromatization sequence. By controlling the rate of each step, it was possible to produce exclusively the meta aromatic isomer. In particular, through this route, we describe the synthesis of renewably sourced meta-xylylenediamine (MXD). Transposition of this work to other furfural-derived chemicals is also discussed and reveals that functionalized biomass-derived aromatics (benzaldehyde, benzylamine, etc.) can be potentially produced, according to this route.

, p. 801 - 804 (2017/08/09)
The efficient oxidation of benzylic alcohols to carbonyl compounds was performed using chloramine-T and a catalytic amount of indium(III) triflate. The primary benzylic alcohols were converted to the corresponding aldehydes in a good yield, and the secondary benzylic alcohols were oxidized to ketones in a high yield. The optimized reaction conditions required 0.3eq of indium(III) triflate and the use of acetonitrile as a solvent.
