A Ti4+-exchanged montmorillonite (Ti4+-mont) and a hydrotalcite (HT) are strong solid Bronsted acid and base, and these two clay catalysts could be used in a single reactor without neutralization of active sites. Because the Ti4+-mont have active acid site in the narrow interlayers, the base sites of large HT particles show no interaction with the acid sites. A variety of acid and base reactions, such as esterification, acetalization, deacetalization, aldol reaction, Michael reaction, and epoxidation, proceeded using both the Ti4+-mont and the HT in a single reactor.

1,3-Dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin as a Precatalyst for Activation of Carbonyl Functionality
?ebular, Klara,Bo?i?, Bojan ?.,Stavber, Stojan
, (2019)
Activation of carbonyl moiety is one of the most rudimentary approaches in organic synthesis and is crucial for a plethora of industrial-scale condensation reactions. In esterification and aldol condensation, which represent two of the most important reactions, the susceptibility of the carbonyl group to nucleophile attack allows the construction of a variety of useful organic compounds. In this context, there is a constant need for development of and improvement in the methods for addition-elimination reactions via activation of carbonyl functionality. In this paper, an advanced methodology for the direct esterification of carboxylic acids and alcohols, and for aldol condensation of aldehydes using widely available, inexpensive, and metal-free 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin under neat reaction conditions is reported. The method is air- and moisture-tolerant, allowing simple synthetic and isolation procedures for both reactions presented in this paper. The reaction pathway for esterification is proposed and a scale-up of certain industrially important derivatives is performed.

Here we report a novel family of crystalline, supermicroporous iron(III) phosphonate nanomaterials (HFeP-1-3, HFeP-1-2, and HFeP-1-4) with different FeIII-to-organophosphonate ligand mole ratios. The materials were synthesized by using a hydrothermal reaction between benzene-1,3,5-triphosphonic acid and iron(III) chloride under acidic conditions (pH≈4.0). Powder X-ray diffraction, N2 sorption, transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM and SEM) image analysis, thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TGA-DTA), and FTIR spectroscopic tools were used to characterize the materials. The triclinic crystal phase [P1(2) space group] of the hybrid iron phosphonate was established by a Rietveld refinement of the PXRD analysis of HFeP-1-3 by using the MAUD program. The unit cell parameters are a=8.749(1), b=8.578(1), c=17.725(3) ?; α=104.47(3), β=97.64(1), γ=113.56(3)°; and V=1013.41 ?3. With these crystal parameters, we proposed an 24-membered-ring open framework structure for HFeP-1. Compound HFeP-1-3, with an starting Fe/ligand molar ratio of 3.0, shows the highest Brunauer-Emmett-Telller (BET) surface area of 556 m2g -1 and uniform supermicropores of approximately 1.1 nm. The acidic surface of the porous iron(III) phosphonate nanoparticles was used in a highly efficient and recyclable catalytic transesterification reaction for the synthesis of biofuels under mild reaction conditions. Iron brews biofuels: Highly crystalline, supermicroporous iron(III) phosphonate nanoparticles have been synthesized through a hydrothermal reaction between benzene-1,3,5- triphosphonic acid and FeCl3. The resulting material was used as an efficient and recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of biofuels under mild reaction conditions (see scheme). Copyright

One-pot borontrifluoride etherate promoted transformation of nitriles to esters was achieved by heating in corresponding alcohol as a reactant and solvent.
Esterification of aryl/alkyl acids catalysed by n-bromosuccinimide under mild reaction conditions
?ebular, Klara,Bo?i?, Bojan ?.,Stavber, Stojan
, (2018)
N-halosuccinimides (NXSs) are well-known to be convenient, easily manipulable and low-priced halogenation reagents in organic synthesis. In the present work, N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) has been promoted as the most efficient and selective catalyst among the NXSs in the reaction of direct esterification of aryl and alkyl carboxylic acids. Comprehensive esterification of substituted benzoic acids, mono-, di- and tri-carboxy alkyl derivatives has been performed under neat reaction conditions. The method is metal-free, air- and moisture-tolerant, allowing for a simple synthetic and isolation procedure as well as the large-scale synthesis of aromatic and alkyl esters with yields up to 100%. Protocol for the recycling of the catalyst has been proposed.

Recent research shows high potential for some p-N,N- dialkylaminobenzylidenecyanoacetates, part of a group known as fluorescent molecular rotors, to serve as fluorescent, non-mechanical viscosity sensors. Of particular interest are molecules compatible with aqueous environments. In this study, we present the synthesis and physical characterization of derivatives from 9-(2-carboxy-2-cyanovinyl)-julolidine and related molecules. All compounds show a power-law relationship of fluorescence emission with the viscosity of the solvent, different mixtures of ethylene glycol and glycerol to modulate viscosity. Compounds with high water solubility exhibit the same behavior in aqueous solutions of dextran, where the dextran concentration was varied to modulate viscosity. In addition, some compounds have been found to have low sensitivity towards changes in the pH in the physiological range. The compounds presented show promise to be used in biofluids, such as blood plasma or lymphatic fluid, to rapidly and non-mechanically determine viscosity.
Organic-inorganic hybrid porous sulfonated zinc phosphonate material: Efficient catalyst for biodiesel synthesis at room temperature

, p. 2273 - 2281 (2012)
A new porous zinc phosphonate material (HZnP-1) has been synthesized via the reaction between p-xylenediphosphonic acid and anhydrous ZnCl2 under hydrothermal and mildly acidic conditions (pH ～ 5) in the absence of any structure directing agent. The phenyl group of this material has been sulfonated with concentrated sulfuric acid to obtain sulfonic acid functionalized material HZnPS-1. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE SEM), N2 sorption, solid state 13C CP MAS and 31P MAS NMR, and FT IR spectroscopic tools are employed to characterize these materials. The crystal structures of both the materials are indexed corresponding to the new orthorhombic phases with unit cell parameters a = 11.00, b = 8.74, c = 14.62 A, α = β = γ = 90° for HZnP-1, and a = 10.65, b = 13.52, c = 15.30 A and α = β = γ = 90° for HZnPS-1. HZnPS-1 showed outstanding catalytic activity and high recycling efficiency for the synthesis of different biodiesel compounds via esterification of long chain fatty acids by using methanol as both reactant and solvent at room temperature. The green and eco-friendly catalytic system described herein can overcome the problem faced by the existing catalytic systems known in biodiesel synthesis, such as drastic conditions (high reaction temperature) and requirement of hazardous organic solvents.
Facile dehydration of primary amides to nitriles catalyzed by lead salts: The anionic ligand matters

, (2020/12/09)
The synthesis of nitrile under mild conditions was achieved via dehydration of primary amide using lead salts as catalyst. The reaction processes were intensified by not only adding surfactant but also continuously removing the only by-product, water from the system. Both aliphatic and aromatic nitriles can be prepared in this manner with moderate to excellent yields. The reaction mechanisms were obtained with high-level quantum chemical calculations, and the crucial role the anionic ligand plays in the transformations were revealed.
