- Nitration of aromatics with dinitrogen pentoxide in a liquefied 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane medium
-
Regardless of the sustainable development path, today, there are highly demanded chemical productions still operating that bear environmental and technological risks inherited from the previous century. The fabrication of nitro compounds, and nitroarenes in particular, is traditionally associated with acidic wastes formed in nitration reactions exploiting mixed acids. However, nitroarenes are indispensable for industrial and military applications. We faced the challenge and developed a greener, safer, and yet effective method for the production of nitroaromatics. The proposed approach comprises the application of an eco-friendly nitrating agent, namely dinitrogen pentoxide (DNP), in the medium of liquefied 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (TFE) - one of the most non-hazardous Freons. Importantly, the used TFE is not emitted into the atmosphere but is effortlessly recondensed and returned into the process. DNP is obtainedviathe oxidation of dinitrogen tetroxide with ozone. The elaborated method is characterized by high yields of the targeted nitro arenes, mild reaction conditions, and minimal amount of easy-to-utilize wastes.

- The graphite-catalyzed: ipso -functionalization of arylboronic acids in an aqueous medium: metal-free access to phenols, anilines, nitroarenes, and haloarenes
-
An efficient, metal-free, and sustainable strategy has been described for the ipso-functionalization of phenylboronic acids using air as an oxidant in an aqueous medium. A range of carbon materials has been tested as carbocatalysts. To our surprise, graphite was found to be the best catalyst in terms of the turnover frequency. A broad range of valuable substituted aromatic compounds, i.e., phenols, anilines, nitroarenes, and haloarenes, has been prepared via the functionalization of the C-B bond into C-N, C-O, and many other C-X bonds. The vital role of the aromatic π-conjugation system of graphite in this protocol has been established and was observed via numerous analytic techniques. The heterogeneous nature of graphite facilitates the high recyclability of the carbocatalyst. This effective and easy system provides a multipurpose approach for the production of valuable substituted aromatic compounds without using any metals, ligands, bases, or harsh oxidants.

- The polyhedral nature of selenium-catalysed reactions: Se(iv) species instead of Se(vi) species make the difference in the on water selenium-mediated oxidation of arylamines
-
Selenium-catalysed oxidations are highly sought after in organic synthesis and biology. Herein, we report our studies on the on water selenium mediated oxidation of anilines. In the presence of diphenyl diselenide or benzeneseleninic acid, anilines react with hydrogen peroxide, providing direct and selective access to nitroarenes. On the other hand, the use of selenium dioxide or sodium selenite leads to azoxyarenes. Careful mechanistic analysis and 77Se NMR studies revealed that only Se(iv) species, such as benzeneperoxyseleninic acid, are the active oxidants involved in the catalytic cycle operating in water and leading to nitroarenes. While other selenium-catalysed oxidations occurring in organic solvents have been recently demonstrated to proceed through Se(vi) key intermediates, the on water oxidation of anilines to nitroarenes does not. These findings shed new light on the multifaceted nature of organoselenium-catalysed transformations and open new directions to exploit selenium-based catalysis.

- Low-temperature and highly efficient liquid-phase catalytic nitration of chlorobenzene with NO2: Remarkably improving the para-selectivity in O2-Ac2O-Hβ composite system
-
In this work, we developed a low-temperature and efficient approach for the highly selective preparation of valuable p-nitrochlorobenzene from the liquid-phase catalytic nitration of chlorobenzene with NO2 in O2-Ac2O-Hβ composite system. The results demonstrated that the introduction of molecular oxygen remarkably enhanced the chlorobenzene conversion and the cooperation catalysis of Hβ zeolite and Ac2O envidently improved the selectivity to para-nitro product. Under the optimized reaction conditions, 93.6 % of the selectivity to p-nitrochlorobenzene with 84.0 % of chlorobenzene conversion was obtained, and the ratio of p-nitrochlorobenzene to o-nitrochlorobenzene could reach up to 20.3. Furthermore, the selectivity distribution of nitration products was reasonably explained by the density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Finally, the possible nitration reaction pathway of chlorobenzene with NO2 was suggested in O2-Ac2O-Hβ composite catalytic system. The present work affords a new and mild nitration approach for highly selective preparation of valuable para-nitro products, and has potential industrial application prospects.

Abstract: Keggin ion based hybrid materials, [BmIm]3[PW12O40], [TBA]3PW12O40 and [BuPy]3PW12O40, were prepared by proton exchange with organic cations, 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium ion, tetrabutylammonium ion and butylpyridinium ion, respectively. The formation of hybrid materials was confirmed by FTIR, PXRD, SEM, TG-DTA, DSC analysis. These hybrid compounds are active for oxidation of aniline using m-chloroperbenzoic acid as an oxidant. Among the three hybrid compounds, 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium phosphotungstate was found to be the best and efficient catalyst for selective aniline oxidation to nitrobenzene. It is a recoverable and reusable catalytic system. The redox property of the phosphotungstate cluster in the hybrid material is involved in the catalytic activity.

This reaction scheme involving Michael addition followed by regioselective Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction leading to the formation of triazolyl analogs is being reported for the first time. All the triazolyl products were characterised using spectral data analysis. Sulphorhodamine B cytotoxicity screening of the resulting products against a panel of five human cancerous cell-lines revealed that few of the analogs display promising broad spectrum cytotoxic effect. Among all the synthesized compounds, only 3q displayed the best cytotoxic effect with IC50 values of 12, 11, 38, 39 and 8.5 μM but less than the standard Ludartin (1) with IC50 values of 6.3, 7.4, 7.5, 6.9 and 0.5 μM against human neuroblastoma (T98G), lung (A-549), prostate (PC-3), colon (HCT-116) and breast (MCF-7) cancer cell lines, respectively.

A series of micro- and nanosulfated zirconia loaded on Fe3O 4 or other metal oxides (SO42-/ZrO 2-MxOy-Fe3O4 (M=Ti 4+, V5+, and Zn2+)) was prepared, characterized, and used in nitration. The nitration conditions with these solid superacids were then optimized to achieve the best regioselectivity and improve the performances of the catalysts as well. In the experimental results, SZTF (SO42-/ZrO2-TiO2-Fe 3O4) showed excellent catalytic activity and it increased the surface area of SO42-/ZrO2 by up to 15 %. The increase not only facilitated the generation of NO2+, but also provided more opportunities for metal ions to interact with aromatic compounds. With chlorobenzene as substrate, theoretical research on its geometric parameters, electron clouds, and electron spin density was used to investigate the interaction between transition metals and chlorobenzene.

- Synthesis and in vitro antibacterial activity of 5-halogenomethylsulfonyl- benzimidazole and benzotriazole derivatives
-
A series of 5-halogenomethylsulfonylbenzimidazole and benzotriazole derivatives was synthesized as potential antibacterial agents. A new method of synthesis of benzimidazoles was developed. The antimicrobial activities of these compounds were tested against a series of reference and clinical strains. The reference strains include Gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus, S. epidermidis, B. subtilis, B. cereus, E. hirae, M. luteus) and Gram-negative rods (E. coli, P. vulgaris, P. aeruginosa, B. bronchiseptica). The clinical strains include six methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and two methicillin-sensitive (MSSA) S. aureus strains, one methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis, three E. faecalis and two E. faecium strains. Compound with trifluoromethyl- substituent at C-2 position (4) displayed significant antibacterial activities comparable with nitrofurantoin against four strains, and higher against Micrococcus luteus. MIC values for clinical Staphylococci strains (MRSA) were 12.5-25 μg/mL; for Enterococcus strains these values were 50-100 μg/mL. MIC values for reference and clinical strains of Staphylococcus and Enterococcus group were similar, respectively.

- Preparation, catalytic performance and theoretical study of porous sulfated binary metal oxides shell (SO42 -/M1xO y-M2xOy) using pollen grain templates
-
Porous micro-sized particles of binary metal oxide (SO4 2 -/M1xOy-M2xOy) shell were prepared by template-directed synthesis method employing HCl-treated pollen grains. With 150 m2/g high surface area, these solid acids could provide more acid sites and thus obtain better catalytic activity. Using aromatic nitration as the typical reaction, their catalytic performances were evaluated and showed a significant improvement in both conversion and regioselectivity. Then, with chlorobenzene as substrate, theoretical studies were performed to investigate the interaction between transition metals and chlorobenzene. The results showed that the excellent para-selectivity was closely relative to the metal ion in these solid acids.

- Halogenation and DNA cleavage via thermally stable arenediazonium camphorsulfonate salts
-
A series of stable arenediazonium camphorsulfonate salts (2a-2j) were synthesized by simple diazotization of several aromatic amines in the presence of sodium nitrite and camphorsulfonic acid. All the new arenediazonium camphorsulfonates, which were characterized by multinuclear (1H and 13C) NMR, IR, DSC, and X-ray diffraction analysis (2e and 2f) provide unambiguous proof for the molecular structures of 2e and 2f. The efficient application of these salts in halogenation reactions was studied in solvent and solvent-free conditions and the DNA cleavage activity was also assessed. These arenediazonium camphorsulfonate salts are noticed as efficient DNA cleaving agents.

- Aromatic nitration with bismuth nitrate in ionic liquids and in molecular solvents: A comparative study of Bi(NO3)3·5H 2O/[bmim][PF6] and Bi(NO3)3· 5H2O/1,2-DCE systems
-
A suspension of bismuth nitrate pentahydrate (BN) in [bmim][PF6] or [bmim][BF4] imidazolium ionic liquid (IL) is an effective reagent for ring nitration of activated aromatics under mild conditions without the need for external promoters. Nitration can also be effected in 1,2-DCE, MeCN, or MeNO2 without additives. Nitration of activated arenes (anisole, toluene, ethylbenzene, cumene, p-xylene, mesitylene, durene, and 1,3-dimethoxybenzene) is considerably faster (time to completion) in BN/[bmim][PF6] relative to BN/1,2-DCE and there are also differences in isomer distributions (for anisole, toluene, and ethylbenzene). With introduction of strongly deactivating substituents (-CHO; -MeCO; -NO 2) the BN/IL system is no longer active but reactions still proceed with BN/1,2-DCE in reasonable yields. The ready availability and low cost of BN, simple operation, and absence of promoters, coupled to recycling and reuse of the IL, provide an attractive alternative to classical nitration methods for activated arenes. Switching from Bi(NO3)3·5H 2O/[bmim][PF6] to Bi(NO3)3· 5H2O/1,2-DCE increases the scope of the substrates that can be nitrated.

- Reusable and efficient polystryrene-supported acidic ionic liquid catalyst for mononitration of aromatic compounds
-
A series of polystyrene-supported 1-(propyl-3-sulfonate)-3-methyl- imidazolium hydrosulfate acidic ionic liquid (PS-[SO3H-PMIM][HSO 4]) catalysts were prepared and tested for mononitration of simple aromatics compounds with nitric acid. It was found that the reactivity of the catalysts increased with increasing [SO3HPMIM][ HSO4] content. The para-selectivity was not only related to the [SO 3H-PMIM][HSO4] content but also the substituent groups in aromatics. A reaction mechanism of nitration over this new catalyst was proposed. The catalytic activity of this catalyst decreased slightly after fifth runs in the synthesis of nitrotoluene.

- Ethylammonium nitrate (EAN)/Tf2O and EAN/TFAA: Ionic liquid based systems for aromatic nitration
-
Acting as in situ sources of triflyl nitrate (TfONO2) and trifluoroacetyl nitrate (CF3COONO2), the EAN/Tf 2O and EAN/TFAA systems, generated via metathesis in the readily available ethylammonium nitrate (EAN) ionic liquid as solvent, are powerful electrophilic nitrating reagents for a wide variety of aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds. Comparative nitration experiments indicate that EAN/Tf2O is superior to EAN/TFAA for nitration of strongly deactivated systems. Both systems exhibit low substrate selectivity (K T/KB = 5-10) in (Figure presented) between values reported for covalent nitrates and preformed nitronium salts.

- Regioselectivity nitration of aromatics with N2O5 in PEG-based dicationic ionic liquid
-
Regioselective mononitration of simple aromatic compounds has been investigated with N2O5 as nitrating agent and a new PEG200-based dicationic acidic ionic liquid (PEG200-DAIL) as catalyst. The results of experiments show that this nitration system can significantly improve the para-selectivity of alkyl-benzenes and the ortho-selectivity of halogenated-benzenes. The PEG200-DAIL exhibits recyclable temperature-dependant phase behavior in CCl4 solvent, and it can be recycled without apparent loss of catalytic activity, and only 5% loss of weight is observed after six times recycling.
