Synthesis of coumarins via palladium-catalyzed carbonylative annulation of internal alkynes by o-lodophenols
Kadnikov, Dmitry V.,Larock, Richard C.
, p. 3643 - 3646 (2000)
(matrix presented) A variety of substituted coumarins have been prepared in good yields by the palladium-catalyzed coupling of o-iodophenols with internal alkynes and 1 atm of carbon monoxide. Unlike most of the previous work on the palladium-catalyzed carbonylation of alkynes, the insertion of the internal alkyne occurs in preference to the insertion of CO.
Selective production of methoxyphenols from dihydroxybenzenes on alkali metal ion-loaded MgO

Selective O-methylation of dihydroxybenzenes (DHBs; catechol, resorcinol, and hydroquinone) to methoxyphenols (MPs) was carried out with dimethylcarbonate on MgO and alkali metal ion (Li, K, and Cs)-loaded MgO between 523 and 603 K. Catalytic activity and product selectivity varied with respect to DHB substrates. Selectivity for O-methylated products increased with increasing basicity of alkali ions; however, K-MgO showed high and stable activity toward MPs. Selectivity for MPs obtained from three substrates increased in the following order: catechol 2 followed by air and 13C CP-MAS NMR measurements indicated the nature of deposited carbon to be molecular species, graphite, MgCO3 and polyaromatics. XPS revealed the nature and availability of active sites on the spent catalysts, as well as the same changes with reaction conditions and correlated with catalytic activity.
Imidazolium-urea low transition temperature mixtures for the UHP-promoted oxidation of boron compounds
Martos, Mario,Pastor, Isidro M.

Different carboxy-functionalized imidazolium salts have been considered as components of low transition temperature mixtures (LTTMs) in combination with urea. Among them, a novel LTTM based on 1-(methoxycarbonyl)methyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride and urea has been prepared and characterized by differential scanning calorimetry throughout its entire composition range. This LTTM has been employed for the oxidation of boron reagents using urea-hydrogen peroxide adduct (UHP) as the oxidizer, thus avoiding the use of aqueous H2O2, which is dangerous to handle. This metal-free protocol affords the corresponding alcohols in good to quantitative yields in up to 5 mmol scale without the need of further purification. The broad composition range of the LTTM allows for the reaction to be carried out up to three consecutive times with a single imidazolium salt loading offering remarkable sustainability with an E-factor of 7.9, which can be reduced to 3.2 by the threefold reuse of the system.
Catalyst-free rapid conversion of arylboronic acids to phenols under green condition
Dong, Zhenhua,Liu, Mengmeng,Pan, Hongguo
, (2021/09/06)
A catalyst-free and solvent-free method for the oxidative hydroxylation of aryl boronic acids to corresponding phenols with hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizing agent was developed. The reactions could be performed under green condition at room temperature within very short reaction time. 99% yield of phenol could be achieved in only 1 min. A series of different arenes substituted aryl boronic acids were further carried out in the hydroxylation reaction with excellent yield. It was worth nothing that the reaction could completed within 1 min in all cases in the presence of ethanol as co-solvent.
Cu2O/TiO2 as a sustainable and recyclable photocatalyst for gram-scale synthesis of phenols in water

A green and straightforward protocol was developed for the synthesis of phenols from aryl boronic acid using an inexpensive and available Cu2O/TiO2 photocatalyst under visible light and sunlight. This approach proceeded in mild reaction conditions in water and the presence of air as a green oxidant, resulting in the corresponding phenols in good to excellent yields. Sunlight was also a sustainable source for this photochemical reaction. Heterogeneous nano photocatalyst was successfully recovered in 8 consecutive runs. It is noteworthy that, the photocatalyst exhibited high activity for the large-scale synthesis of phenols.
