- Trace Detection of Hydrogen Peroxide via Dynamic Double Emulsions
-
Hydrogen peroxide is a dynamic signaling molecule in biological systems. We report herein a versatile double emulsion sensor that can detect femtomolar quantities of aqueous hydrogen peroxide. The mechanism responsible for this sensitivity is a peroxide induced change in double emulsion structure, which results in a modified directional emission from dyes dissolved in the high index organic phase. The morphology (structure) of the double emulsion is controlled via interfacial tensions and a methyltrioxorhenium catalyzed sulfide oxidation results in an enhancement of the surfactant effectiveness. The incipient polar sulfoxide induced decrease of the interfacial tension at the organic-water (O-W) interface results in an increased interfacial area between the organic phase and water and a diminished emission perpendicular to the supporting substrate. The modularity of our sensory system is demonstrated through cascade catalysis between methyltrioxorhenium and oxidase enzymes, with the latter producing hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct to enable for the selective and sensitive detection of molecular and ionic enzymatic substrates.

- Synthesis and Characterization of Magnetic Functionalized Ni and Cu Nano Catalysts and Their Application in Oxidation, Oxidative Coupling and Various Multi-Component Reactions
-
Abstract: Two magnetic nano catalysts of nickel and copper, Fe3O4@SiO2@DOP-BenPyr-M(II), (M=Ni and Cu) have been synthesized. These catalysts were applied as recoverable, efficient and new heterogeneous catalysts for the high yielding and room temperature one-pot procedure of selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and oxidative coupling of thiols to disulfides. In addition, the catalytic activity of Fe3O4@SiO2@DOP-BenPyr-Ni(II) was investigated as heterogeneous nanocatalyst for synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones, 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles and polyhydroquinolines. The synthesized catalysts were characterized by FT-IR, TGA, XRD, VSM, EDX, ICP and SEM techniques. These catalysts were recovered by an external magnet and reused several times without significant loss of catalytic efficiency. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Metal- and additive-free oxidation of a series of sulfides/thioketones has been achieved using cyclic diacyl peroxides as mild oxygen sources. This protocol features simple manipulation, high chemo- and diastereoselectivity, and a broad substrate scope (up to 42 examples), tolerates many common functional groups, and is scalable and applicable to the late-stage sulfoxidation strategy. A preliminary mechanistic study by quantum mechanical calculations suggests that a single two-electron transfer process is energetically more favorable, and indicates the reactivity of cyclic diacyl peroxides distinct from conventional acyclic acyl peroxides.

- Palladium on carbon-catalyzed gentle and quantitative combustion of hydrogen at room temperature
-
A quantitative and gentle oxidation (combustion) of hydrogen in the presence of oxygen in a variety of solvents was achieved under palladium on carbon (Pd/C)-catalyzed conditions at ordinary pressures and temperatures. A quantitative generation of water accountable for the consumed oxygen was observed. While hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which would form as an intermediate, was extremely unstable under the Pd/C-catalyzed conditions to be converted into water with accompanying oxygen generation, the stability of H2O2 was found to be increased in cold (0 °C) trifluoroacetic acid, and the formation of 64% H2O2 based on the consumed oxygen could be detected. A mechanistic elucidation study revealed that the single electron transfer and generation of the hydroxyl radical are involved in the gentle combustion process. The reactive oxygen species generated during the process was effectively utilized for the chemical oxidation of sulfides and phosphines to afford the corresponding sulfoxides and phosphine oxides, respectively.

A series of flavin-cyclodextrin conjugates has been prepared and tested in the enantioselective oxidations of prochiral aromatic and aliphatic sulfides with hydrogen peroxide. The newly prepared conjugates contain isoalloxazinium or alloxazinium moieties attached to the primary rim of α- and β-cyclodextrins at the C-6 positions. In addition, flavinium units were attached to the secondary rim of the β-cyclodextrin macrocycle. The relationship between the structural features and the catalytic performance of the conjugates, including those recently reported by us, was analyzed. The rate and enantioselectivity of the sulfoxidations catalyzed by flavin-cyclodextrin conjugates are influenced mainly by the size of the cyclodextrin cavity, the type of flavin unit (alloxazine or isoalloxazine), and by the relative orientation of the flavin and cyclodextrin moieties.

- Alloxazine-cyclodextrin conjugates for organocatalytic enantioselective sulfoxidations
-
Four structurally different alloxazine-cyclodextrin conjugates were prepared and tested as catalysts for the enantioselective oxidation of prochiral sulfides to sulfoxides by hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solutions. The alloxazinium unit was appended to the primary face of α- and β-cyclodextrins via a linker with variable length. A series of sulfides was used as substrates: n-alkyl methyl sulfides (n-alkyl = hexyl, octyl, decyl, dodecyl), cyclohexyl methyl sulfide, tert-butyl methyl sulfide, benzyl methyl sulfide and thioanisol. α-Cyclodextrin conjugate having alloxazinium unit attached via a short linker proved to be a suitable catalyst for oxidations of n-alkyl methyl sulfides, displaying conversions up to 98% and enantioselectivities up to 77% ee. β-Cyclodextrin conjugates were optimal catalysts for the oxidation of sulfides carrying bulkier substituents; e.g. tert-butyl methyl sulfide was oxidized with quantitative conversion and 91% ee. Low loadings (0.3-5 mol%) of the catalysts were used. No overoxidation to sulfones was observed in this study.

- New odorless method for the Corey-Kim and Swern oxidations utilizing dodecyl methyl sulfide (Dod-S-Me)
-
Development of the odorless dodecyl methyl sulfide (Dod-S-Me, 1) as an alternative for dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and new odorless methods for the Corey-Kim and Swern oxidations are described. These reactions have been developed with a view toward green chemistry, utilizing Dod-S-Me (1) and common solvents instead of dichloromethane.

- Tungstate-exchanged Mg-Al-LDH catalyst: An eco-compatible route for the oxidation of sulfides in aqueous medium
-
The catalytic oxidation of sulfides selectively to sulfoxides and/or sulfones is realised for the first time with heterogeneous tungstate-exchanged Mg-Al-LDH catalyst using 30% hydrogen peroxide in aqueous media at a faster rate in quantitative yields at room temperature. The heterogeneous catalyst showed higher activity (TOF) over its homogeneous analogues and other heterogeneous catalysts reported so far. The catalyst is well characterised by various instrumental techniques such as FT-IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis (TGA and DTA), powder XRD and chemical analysis. The catalyst is reused for six cycles with consistent activity and selectivity.

- Enantio- and Diastereoselectivity in the Periodate Oxidation of Sulfides Catalyzed by Bovine Serum Albumin. 2
-
The asymmetric oxidation of aliphatic, aromatic, and heterocyclic sulfides in the presence of a catalytic amount of bovine serum albumin (BSA) affords the corresponding sulfoxides with enantiomeric excess (ee) up to 80percent.The diastereoselectivity of the process has also been examined in comparison with the enzymatic oxygenation with cytochrome P-450.Electronic and CD spectral data indicate that the sulfides are not tightly bound to BSA in the reaction conditions.
