- Esterification of tert-butanol and acetic acid by silicotungestic acid catalyst supported on bentonite
-
A series of solid acid catalysts were synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation method by varying the wt % of silicotungstic acid on bentonite. Silicotungestic acid supported on bentonite was used to catalytic synthesis of tert-butyl acetate with acetic acid and tert-butyl alcohol. The main reaction parameters such as silicotungstic acid loading on bentonite, the amount of catalyst, molar ratio of reactants, reaction temperature and reaction time have been investigated. The optimum conditions were determined as follows: silicotungstic acid loading on bentonite 25 wt %, catalyst 0.7 g, mole ratio of tert-butanol to acetic acid 1:1.1, reaction temperature 110 °C and reaction time 2 h. The esterification yield of tert-butyl acetate was about 87.2 %. The catalyst could be used repeatedly for many times without distinct loss in activity.

- Dehydrogenative ester synthesis from enol ethers and water with a ruthenium complex catalyzing two reactions in synergy
-
We report the dehydrogenative synthesis of esters from enol ethers using water as the formal oxidant, catalyzed by a newly developed ruthenium acridine-based PNP(Ph)-type complex. Mechanistic experiments and density functional theory (DFT) studies suggest that an inner-sphere stepwise coupled reaction pathway is operational instead of a more intuitive outer-sphere tandem hydration-dehydrogenation pathway.

- Molybdenum-modified mesoporous SiO2as an efficient Lewis acid catalyst for the acetylation of alcohols
-
A suitable, expeditious and well-organized approach for the acetylation of alcohols with acetic anhydride in the presence of 5%MoO3-SiO2 as an optimum environmentally benign heterogeneous catalyst was developed. The high surface area obtained for 5%MoO3-SiO2, 101 m2 g-1 compared to other catalysts, 22, 23, and 44 m2 g-1 for 5%WO3-ZrO2, 5%WO3-SiO2, and 5%MoO3-ZrO2, respectively, appears to be the driving force for better catalytic activity. Amongst the two dopants used, molybdenum oxide is the better dopant compared to its tungsten oxide counterpart. High yields of up to 86% were obtained with MoO3 doping while WO3 containing catalysts did not show any activity. Other reaction parameters such as reactor stirring speed, and solvent variation were studied and revealed that the optimum stirring speed is 400 rpm and cyclohexane is the best solvent. Thus, the utilization of affordable and nontoxic materials, short reaction times, reusability, and producibility of excellent yields of the desired products are the advantages of this procedure.

- Green, efficient and economical coal fly ash based phosphomolybdic acid catalysts: preparation, characterization and application
-
Abstract: Cost-effective, efficient and green solid acid catalysts have been synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation of various weight fractions of phosphomolybdic acid (5, 10, 15 and 25 wt. %) on mechanically and thermally activated coal fly ash. N2 adsorption–desorption, XRD, FT-IR, SEM, SEM–EDX, TEM, TGA, UV–Vis DRS, solid state 31P MAS NMR were used for characterization of as synthesized catalysts. Catalytic active sites were developed on inert surface of coal fly ash by using various activation techniques whose performance was assessed over a series of acylation of various aliphatic alcohols. For rapid and higher catalytic activity, reactions were conducted in microwave heating mode. Impregnation of phosphomolybdic acid generates Lewis acidic sites on coal fly ash surface as inferred by pyridine adsorbed FT-IR studies which were then utilized in acylation reactions. Various reaction parameters like weight fraction of catalysts, molar ratio of reactants, time, temperature, etc. were optimized for attaining highest conversion %. The catalyst with 15 wt. % of phosphomolybdic acid was found to be more efficient and could be recycled up to five reaction cycles with analogous conversion %. Negligible leaching of catalyst was confirmed by hot filtration test. This work suggests an alternative approach for valorisation of industrial solid waste, coal fly ash in development of innovative, economical solid catalysts.

- Genome mining reveals new bacterial type I Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases with (bio)synthetic potential
-
Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs) are oxidorreductases that catalyze the oxidation of ketones in a very selective manner. By genome mining we detected seven putative type I BVMOs in Bradyrhizobium diazoefficiens USDA 110. As we established the phylogenetic relationships among them and with other type I BVMOs, we found out that they belong to different clades of the phylogenetic tree. Thus, we decided to clone and heterologously express five of them. Three of them, each one from a divergent phylogenetic group, were obtained as soluble proteins, allowing us to proceed with their biocatalytic assessment and enzymatic characterization. As to substrate scope and selectivity, we observed a complementary behavior among the three BVMOs. BVMO2 was the more versatile biocatalyst in whole-cell systems while BVMO4 and BVMO5 showed a narrow substrate profile with preference for linear ketones and particular regioselectivity for (±)-cis-bicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-en-6-one.

- Scalable green approach toward fragrant acetates
-
The advantageous properties of ethylene glycol diacetate (EGDA) qualify it as a useful substitute for glycerol triacetate (GTA) for various green applications. We scrutinised the lipase-mediated acetylation of structurally diverse alcohols in neat EGDA furnishing the range of naturally occurring fragrant acetates. We found that such enzymatic system exhibits high reactivity and selectivity towards activated (homo) allylic and non-activated primary/secondary alcohols. This feature was utilised in the scalable multigram synthesis of fragrant (Z)-hex-3-en-1-yl acetate in 70percent yield. In addition, the Lipozyme 435/EGDA system was also found to be applicable for the chemo-selective acetylation of (hydroxyalkyl) phenols as well as for the kinetic resolution of chiral secondary alcohols. Lastly, its discrimination power was demonstrated in competitive experiments of equimolar mixtures of two isomeric alcohols. This enabled the practical synthesis of 1-pentyl acetate isolated as a single product in 68percent yield from the equimolar mixture of 1-pentanol and 3-pentanol.

- Cyanation of Anilines to Aryl Nitriles Using tert-Butyl Isocyanide: A Simple and Copper-free Procedure
-
In this manuscript, a simple and copper-free procedure for the synthesis of aryl nitrile derivatives from anilines is described. Under the improved protocol, the anilines were reacted with tert-butyl isocyanide under a mild reaction condition without the use of solvents and copper catalyst to synthesize benzonitriles. This copper-free Sandmeyer-type reaction could tolerate a range of anilines bearing different functional groups and also can be conducted even without the exclusion of air. In addition, this method has afforded the aryl nitriles in moderate to good yields (52–81%). The obtained results in this study reveal that the tert-butyl isocyanide as a potential cyanide source for the cyanation reaction.

- Magnetically recoverable AlFe/Te nanocomposite as a new catalyst for the facile esterification reaction under neat conditions
-
In this work, a new Fe3O4/AlFe/Te nanocomposite was synthesized by a one-step sol–gel method. The Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were prepared and then mixed with aluminum telluride (Al2Te3) in an alkali medium to produce the desired catalyst. After characterization of the Fe3O4/AlFe/Te nanocomposite by SEM, TEM, EDS, XRD, and ICP analyses, it was used in the esterification reaction. This heterogeneous catalyst showed high catalytic activity in the esterification of commercially available carboxylic acids with various alcohols to produce the desired esters at high conversions under neat conditions. The Fe3O4/AlFe/Te nanocomposites were separated from the reaction mixture via an external magnet and re-used 8 times without significant loss of catalytic activity.

- N-Hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) Promoted Aerobic Baeyer-Villiger Oxidation in the Presence of Aldehydes
-
Metal-free aerobic Baeyer-Villiger (BV) oxidation of ketones to lactones or esters in the presence of aldehydes promoted by N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) has been developed. The reaction proceeded under mild conditions with excellent selectivity and high yields. Compared with the methods that use metal complexes as catalysts, this strategy not only showed good environmental advantages, but also increased aldehyde efficiency up to 84 %. Control experiments indicated that NHPI accelerated the oxidation of aldehydes to peroxy acids but did not improve the BV oxidation while peroxy acids were already generated. Peroxy acids generated from aldehydes in situ were the key intermediates, and the phthalimide-N-oxyl radical (PINO) contributed to high aldehyde efficiency by stabilizing the radical species, which are necessary for the chain propagation reactions. This study may offer some useful strategies for new transition metal-free catalytic aerobic oxidation reactions in which aldehydes act as sacrificial agents.

- Exploring the catalytic activity of Lewis-acidic uranyl complexes in the nucleophilic acyl substitution of acid anhydrides
-
The catalytic activities of several uranyl complexes, such as N,N′-disalicylidene-o-phenelyenediaminato(ethanol)dioxouranium(vi) (UO2(salophen)EtOH), bis(dibenzoylmethanato)(ethanol)dioxouranium(vi) (UO2(dbm)2EtOH), pentakis(N,N-dimethylformamide)dioxouranium(vi) ([UO2(DMF)5]2+), and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine oxide)dioxouranium(vi) ([UO2(OPPh3)4]2+), were examined in the nucleophilic acyl substitution of acid anhydrides. Among them, [UO2(OPPh3)4]2+ was the most efficient to give ethyl acetate and acetic acid from acetic anhydride (Ac2O) and ethanol, and was resistant towards decomposition during the catalytic reaction. Several nucleophiles were also subjected to the catalytic acylation reaction using acetic and pivalic anhydride. Kinetic and spectroscopic studies suggested that [UO2(OPPh3)4]2+ interacts with Ac2O to form [UO2(Ac2O)(OPPh3)3]2+. Interaction of this actual catalyst with additional Ac2O determines the rate of the overall nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction.

- Template-free sol–gel synthesis of high surface area mesoporous silica based catalysts for esterification of di-carboxylic acids
-
High surface area mesoporous silica based catalysts have been prepared by a simple hydrolysis/sol–gel process without using any organic template and hydrothermal treatment. A controlled hydrolysis of ethyl silicate-40, an industrial bulk chemical, as a silica precursor, resulted in the formation of very high surface area (719?m2/g) mesoporous (pore size 67?? and pore volume 1.19?cc/g) silica. The formation of mesoporous silica has been correlated with the polymeric nature of the ethyl silicate-40 silica precursor which on hydrolysis and further condensation forms long chain silica species which hinders the formation of a close condensed structure thus creating larger pores resulting in the formation of high surface mesoporous silica. Ethyl silicate-40 was used further for preparing a solid acid catalyst by supporting molybdenum oxide nanoparticles on mesoporous silica by a simple hydrolysis sol–gel synthesis procedure. The catalysts showed very high acidity as determined by NH3-TPD with the presence of Lewis as well as Br?nsted acidity. These catalysts showed very high catalytic activity for esterification; a typical acid catalyzed organic transformation of various mono- and di-carboxylic acids with a range of alcohols. The in situ formed silicomolybdic acid heteropoly-anion species during the catalytic reactions were found to be catalytically active species for these reactions. Ethyl silicate-40, an industrial bulk silica precursor, has shown a good potential for its use as a silica precursor for the preparation of mesoporous silica based heterogeneous catalysts on a larger scale at a lower cost.

- Double-modified mesoporous molecular sieve catalytic SBA method for preparing carboxylic acid T-butyl ester
-
The invention discloses a method for preparing tert-butyl carboxylate by using a dual-modified SBA mesoporous molecular sieve catalyst. According to the method, carboxylic acid and isobutylene are subjected to addition esterification by using a dual-modified SBA mesoporous molecular sieve as a catalyst to synthesize the tert-butyl carboxylate. The molecular sieve catalyst is a metal-doped sulfonate-grafted dual-modified SBA mesoporous molecular sieve catalyst prepared by a one-step cocondensation process. When the dual-modified SBA mesoporous molecular sieve catalyst is used in the addition esterification reaction process of synthesizing tert-butyl carboxylic acid from carboxylic acid and isobutylene, no polar solvent (such as tert-butyl alcohol, methyl tert-butyl ether or the like) is needed as an isobutylene polymerization inhibitor, and the quantity of the carboxylic acid is not excessive, thereby reducing the energy consumption for separating the reaction product. The catalyst has the advantages of high conversion rate, high selectivity, non-homogeneous phase, no corrosiveness, adjustable acid quantity and acid center and the like, and is recyclable.

- A sulfonated Schiff base dimethyltin(iv) coordination polymer: Synthesis, characterization and application as a catalyst for ultrasound- or microwave-assisted Baeyer-Villiger oxidation under solvent-free conditions
-
The synthesis and crystal structure of the new dimethyltin(iv) compound [SnMe2(HL)(CH3OH)]n·(0.5nCH3OH) (1) derived from the Schiff base 2-[(2,3-dihydroxyphenyl)methylideneamino]benzenesulfonic acid (H3L) are described. Despite having six potentially donating centres (one imine nitrogen, two phenoxo and three sulfonate oxygen atoms), the monoprotonated dianionic ligand (HL2-) behaves as an O,O,O-tridentate chelator. Single crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that 1 is a 1D coordination polymer with every tin(iv) ion bound to two methyl groups, a methanol molecule, two Ophenoxo and one μ-Osulfonate atom from HL2-. The coordination polymer 1 was applied as a heterogeneous catalyst for the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of ketones to esters or lactones, using aqueous hydrogen peroxide as oxidant, under ultrasound (US) or microwave (MW) irradiation and solvent- and additive-free conditions. Overall conversions up to 76/82, 98/93, 93/89, 91/94, 83/90, 68/62 and 81/87% under US/MW irradiations were obtained with 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone, cyclopentanone, 2-methylcyclopentanone, cyclohexanone, 3-methylcyclohexanone, benzophenone and acetophenone, respectively. The catalyst can be recycled up to five cycles without losing appreciable activity.

-
A variety of acyl protected phenols AcOAr participate in sp3 C-H etherification of substrates R-H to give alkyl aryl ethers R-OAr employing tBuOOtBu as oxidant with copper(I) β-diketiminato catalysts [CuI]. Although 1°, 2°, and 3° C-H bonds may be functionalized, selectivity studies reveal a preference for the construction of hindered, 3° C-OAr bonds. Mechanistic studies indicate that β-diketiminato copper(II) phenolates [CuII]-OAr play a key role in this C-O bond forming reaction, formed via transesterification of AcOAr with [CuII]-OtBu intermediates generated upon reaction of [CuI] with tBuOOtBu.

- Acid-catalyzed oxidation of levulinate derivatives to succinates under mild conditions
-
Levulinate derivatives are an attractive platform for the production of renewable chemicals. Here we report on the oxidation of methyl levulinate into dimethyl succinate with peroxides under mild conditions using Br?nsted and Lewis acid catalysts. Selectivities to succinate and acetate derivatives of approximately 60 and 40 %, respectively, were obtained with strong Br?nsted acids in methanol. Although the molecular structure (i.e., carbon-chain length and branching around the C=O group) and the oxidant type affect the product distribution, solvent choice has the strongest impact on changing the location of oxygen insertion into the carbon backbone. Specifically, switching the solvent from methanol to heptane resulted in a decrease in the succinate/acetate ratio from 1.6 to 0.3. In contrast to Br?nsted acids, we demonstrate that the nature of the metal cation is responsible for changing the reaction selectivity of water-tolerant Lewis acidic triflate salts.

Iron oxide produced by iron-oxidizing bacteria, Leptothrix ochracea, (L-BIOX) obtained from a freshwater purification plant, Joyo City in Kyoto, Japan catalyzed Baeyer-Villiger oxidation with molecular oxygen in the presence of benzaldehyde at 25 °C more efficiently than usual iron compounds. L-BIOX can promote the reactions of various substrates to give the desired products in sufficient yields and was found to be reusable. Scanning transmission electron microscopy and 57Fe M?ssbauer spectroscopy revealed that no change of the surface structure of L-BIOX was observed even after four times of the recycling test and the oxidation state of iron in L-BIOX is trivalent before and after the oxidation of cyclohexanone. An investigation with analogous amorphous iron oxides which contain silicon revealed that the catalytic activity of L-BIOX might stem from a synergetic effect of iron and silicon in the structure.

In all cases, (R)-alcohols are obtained with high ee (up to >99 %) at conversion 36 % 500. The enzymatic reactivity is influenced by the hydrophobicity of solvent and the structure/nature of the nucleophile. Furthermore, CAL-B allows enantio-complementary between transesterifications in non-aqueous media: alcoholysis and acetylation.

- Facile synthesis of mesoporous sulfated Ce/TiO2 nanofiber solid superacid with nanocrystalline frameworks by using collagen fibers as a biotemplate and its application in esterification
-
Collagen fibers, one of the most abundant biomass in the natural world, were used as the biomass template to synthesize cerium-doped mesoporous TiO 2 nanofiber (SO42--Cex/TiO 2) solid acid catalysts. The physiochemical properties of the as-prepared catalysts were well characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The fibrous morphology of native collagen fibers were found to be well preserved in SO42--Ce x/TiO2, and the acid strength and textural property of the SO42--Cex/TiO2 were adjustable by changing the doping amount of Ce and the curing temperature. The catalytic properties of as-prepared catalysts were evaluated in the esterification reactions. It was found that the SO42--Ce x/TiO2 exhibited high activity under mild reaction conditions. When reacted at 90 °C for 45 min with a catalyst amount of 2 wt%, the conversion yields of ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, hexyl acetate and ethyl caproate were 99.9%, 97.06%, 94.29% and 86.75%, respectively. Additionally, the SO42--Cex/TiO2 solid acid catalyst could be reused at least 6 times without significant loss of activity, exhibiting much better reusability as compared with the SO 42--TiO2* catalyst prepared by conventional approach.

A novel, efficient, heterogeneous, and reusable multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), functionalized with phosphonic acid (MWCNTs-C-PO 3H2) has been synthesized. The synthesized CNTs were characterized using some electron microscopic techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), and also some thermal and spectroscopic methods such as thermogravimetry (TG). The nitrogen adsorption behavior of the MWCNTs-C-PO3H2 catalyst was evaluated using the TG instrumentation system at 25°C. The catalyst was applied successfully for highly efficient and selective acetylation of alcohols, phenols, thiols and aromatic amines with acetic anhydride at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. The reusability of the catalyst was checked and the recovered catalyst was reused for five runs without significant loss in activity.

- Oxorhenium complexes bearing the water-soluble tris(pyrazol-1-yl) methanesulfonate, 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane, or related ligands, as catalysts for Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of ketones
-
New rhenium(VII or III) complexes [ReO3(PTA)2] [ReO4] (1) (PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane), [ReO 3(mPTA)][ReO4]I (2) (mPTA = N-methyl-1,3,5-triaza-7- phosphaadamantane cation), [ReO3(HMT)2][ReO4] (3) (HMT = hexamethylenetetramine), [ReO3(η2-Tpm)(PTA) ][ReO4] (4) [Tpm = hydrotris(pyrazol-1-yl)methane, HC(pz) 3, pz = pyrazolyl], [ReO3(Hpz)(HMT)][ReO4] (5) (Hpz = pyrazole), [ReO(Tpms)(HMT)] (6) [Tpms = tris(pyrazol-1-yl) methanesulfonate, O3SC(pz)3-] and [ReCl 2{N2C(O)Ph}(PTA)3] (7) have been prepared from the Re(VII) oxide Re2O7 (1-6) or, in the case of 7, by ligand exchange from the benzoyldiazenido complex [ReCl2{N 2C(O)Ph}(Hpz)(PPh3)2], and characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopies, elemental analysis and electrochemical properties. Theoretical calculations at the density functional theory (DFT) level of theory indicated that the coordination of PTA to both Re(III) and Re(VII) centers by the P atom is preferable compared to the coordination by the N atom. This is interpreted in terms of the Re-PTA bond energy and hard-soft acid-base theory. The oxo-rhenium complexes 1-6 act as selective catalysts for the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclic and linear ketones (e.g., 2-methylcyclohexanone, 2-methylcyclopentanone, cyclohexanone, cyclopentanone, cyclobutanone, and 3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone or pinacolone) to the corresponding lactones or esters, in the presence of aqueous H2O2. The effects of a variety of factors are studied toward the optimization of the process.

- P2O5/Al2O3 AS an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the acetylation of alcohols, phenols, thiols, and amines under solvent-free conditions
-
A convenient, rapid, and efficient method for the acetylation of alcohols, phenols, thiols, and amines has been developed by using acetic anhydride in the presence of a catalytic amount of P2O5/Al 2O3 under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. This reaction was studied under different conditions, and several solvents were examined for this conversion. However, in terms of reaction time and yield, it was found that the best result was obtained when the reaction was carried out under solvent-free conditions. Racemization of optically active alcohols and epimerization of sugars were not observed. The use of nontoxic and inexpensive materials, simple and clean workup, short reaction times, and good yields of the products are the advantages of this method.

- Synthesis, characterization, and crystal structure of several novel acidic ionic liquids based on the corresponding 1-alkylbenzimidazole with tetrafluoroboric acid
-
A series of acidic task-specific ionic liquids 1-R2-2-R 1benzimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (R1 = Me, R2 = Me, Et, Pr-n, Bu-n, Pen-n) were prepared by simple acid-base neutralization of the corresponding 1-alkylbenzimidazole and tetrafluoroboric acid. The compounds were characterized by FTIR spectra, elemental analysis, 1HNMR spectra and thermogravimetric analysis. These new ionic liquids are nonvolatile, and have potential use as alternatives to conventional organic solvents due to their solubility and thermal stability. These novel tetrafluoroborate salts show good catalytic activity to esterification of carboxylic acids with alcohols under mild reaction conditions, which could maintain good catalytic performance after recycling at least six times. Furthermore, a crystal of one compound, [H-bmBim]BF4, was prepared, with the crystal structure determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The molecular structure is formed by weak π-π interactions and intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the benzimidazole rings, yielding a three-dimensional net-like supramolecule.

- The heterogenation of melamine and its catalytic activity
-
The immobilization of melamine (Mela) onto silica extracted from rice husk ash (RHA) has been done via 3-chloropropyltriethoxysiline (CPTES). The resulting catalyst was designated as RHAPrMela. The melamine loading on the silica was found to be ca. 65.74%. The 29Si MAS NMR showed the presence of T2, T3, Q3 and Q4 silicon centers. The 13C MAS NMR showed that RHAPrMela had three chemical shifts at 14.83, 31.17 and 52.24 ppm, consistent with the three carbon atoms, and two chemical shifts at 161.52 and 169.67 ppm with double spinning side bands, indicating that the three carbon atoms in melamine ring are not equivalent in RHAPrMela. The catalytic potential of RHAPrMela was tested for the esterification of acetic acid with several alcohols. A conversion of 73% was achieved with 100% selectivity for the respective esters. The catalyst was easily regenerated and could be reused many times without loss of catalytic activity.

Air-stable titanocene bis(perfluorooctanesulfonate) [Cp2Ti(OSO2C8F17)2] that shows high Lewis acidity was prepared from Cp2TiCl2 and AgOSO2C8F17. The compound was characterized by different techniques, and examined as a catalyst for acylation reactions. It was found that using equimolar acetic anhydride as acetylating agent and under solvent-free condition, Cp2Ti(OSO2C8F17)2 exhibits high activity and selectivity in the acetylation of various alcohols, phenols, thiols, and amines. Also, good catalytic efficiency is observed in the acylation of 2-phenylethanol across various acylating reagents. The catalyst can be reused without loss of activity in a test of ten cycles. The Cp2Ti(OSO2C8F17)2 catalyst affords a simple, efficient and general method for the acylation of alcohols, phenols, thiols, and amines.

In present studies, a new and efficient method for synthesis of cadmium oxide nanoparticles by using microwave (MW) activation is reported. To ensure the specific efficiency of microwave irradiation versus conventional heating, the synthesis of Cd(OH)2 as precursor of CdO was carried out under similar temperature (80 °C), time and reaction conditions without microwave irradiation. The formation of CdO was characterized by XRD, TEM, FT-IR analysis. Catalytic activity of CdO nanopowder for acylation of alcohols, phenols and amines has been investigated. The results show that the reaction times and yields of desired products were improved by using CdO.
