Cyclic oxyterpenes are natural products that are mostly used as fragrances, flavours and drugs by the cosmetic, food and pharmaceutical industries. However, only a few cyclic oxyterpenes are accessible via chemical syntheses, which are far from being ecofriendly. We report here the synthesis of six cyclic oxyterpenes derived from ?-pinene while respecting the principles of green and sustainable chemistry. Only natural or biosourced catalysts were used in mild conditions that were optimised for each synthesis. A new generation of ecocatalysts, derived from Mn-rich water lettuce, was prepared via green processes, characterised by MP-AES, XRPD and TEM analyses, and tested in catalysis. The epoxidation of ?-pinene led to the platform molecule, ?-pinene oxide, with a good yield, illustrating the efficacy of the new generation of ecocatalysts. The opening ?-pinene oxide was investigated in green conditions and led to new and regioselective syntheses of myrtenol, 7-hydroxy-α-terpineol and perillyl alcohol. Successive oxidations of perillyl alcohol could be performed using no hazardous oxidant and were controlled using the new generation of ecocatalysts generating perillaldehyde and cuminaldehyde.

We demonstrate the selective oxidation of secondary alcohols and activated primary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes or ketones using Fe-bTAML as the catalyst and sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) as the oxidant. Good to excellent yields of 80%–99% for the carbonyl compounds and turnover numbers up to ~500 was obtained with this catalytic system. The reactions are clean, performed under mild conditions (air, room temperature) and yielded sodium chloride as the only by-product. The yield and turnover number were dependent on the pH of the reaction and this difference was attributed to the different reactive intermediates that was formed at pH 7 and pH 12 (FeV(O) and FeIV(O) respectively). Reactions involving the FeV(O) intermediate oxidize secondary alcohols more efficiently than its FeIV(O) analog. This trend was reversed for the oxidation of activated primary alcohols where reactions involving FeIV(O) afforded much higher TON's. This reactivity trend can be explained from the differences in bond dissociation energy (BDE) of their corresponding one electron reduced species ([FeIV-OH], ~99 kcal/mol; [FeIII-OH], ~83 kcal/mol) as well as their relative stabilities in the solvent during reaction. This catalytic system was found to be unsuitable for nonconjugated primary alcohol due to the formation of the inactive FeIV(OMe) intermediate after one catalytic cycle.

The aerobic oxidation of alcohol catalyzed by NiGa hydrotalcites in the absence of any additives has been studied in detail. The research results revealed that the surface basicity significantly affected the catalytic performance. Moreover, the Br?nsted OH basic site on Ni-containing hydrotalcites was suggested to be the key active site and accelerated the oxidation. The catalytic system had good tolerance for various alcohols, and an excellent selectivity of aldehyde could be obtained for the oxidation of primary alcohol. A probable non-radical reaction path for the transformation has been proposed according to the catalytic results, isotope labelling experiments and Hammett experiments.

The invention belongs to the technical field of liquid-phase catalytic oxidation and provides a method for preparing aldehyde ketone by efficiently catalyzing molecular oxygen to oxidize alcohol by taking a hydrotalcite-like material as a catalyst. The catalyst can be expressed as A-NixM-LDHs (A=OH, CO3, CH3COO and PO4; M is Ga or In; the ratio of Ni to M is (2-4) to 1). The method is characterized by preparing aldoketones compounds by carrying out aerobic oxidation reaction on alcohol under mild condition without adding additives in the presence of the catalyst. The hydrotalcite-like material can be synthesized in quantity and can be recycled; the method has the advantages of high selectivity and yield of aldehyde ketone, mild reaction condition, low cost and easiness in realizing industrialization.

In the hunt for a simple, mild, and scalable protocol for gold nanoparticle-catalyzed oxidation of benzylic and allylic alcohols under O2, we have used commercially available gold nanoparticles supported on alumina to selectively oxidize a large range of activated alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl compounds in good yields (68–99 %) and with excellent selectivity (ca. 100 %). The true heterogeneous nature of the catalysis by gold was demonstrated, allowing us to further adapt this protocol to continuous-flow reactors by using the tube-in-tube technology, in which higher yields were obtained thanks to an improved oxygenation of the reaction medium.

An efficient approach for organoselenium-catalyzed regioselective C?H pyridination of 1,3-dienes to form pyridinium salts has been developed. This method was also successfully applied to direct C?H pyridination of alkenes. Fluoropyridinium reagents, or initially loaded pyridine derivatives, acted as pyridine sources in the pyridination reactions. The obtained pyridinium salts could be further converted under different conditions. This work is the first example of catalytic C-2 direct C?H functionalization of 1,3-dienes and the first case of organoselenium-catalyzed C?H pyridination.
Bismuth-substituted "sandwich" type polyoxometalate catalyst for activation of peroxide: Umpolung of the peroxo intermediate and change of chemoselectivity

The epoxidation of alkenes with peroxides by WVI, MoVI, VV, and TiIV compounds is well established, and it is well accepted that the active intermediate peroxo species are electrophilic toward nucleophilic substrates. Polyoxotungstates, for example, those of the "sandwich" structure, [WZn(TM-L)2(ZnW9O34)2]q- in which TM = transition metal and L = H2O, have in the past been found to be excellent epoxidation catalysts. It has now been found that substituting the Lewis basic BiIII into the terminal position of the "sandwich" polyoxometalate structure to yield [Zn2BiIII2(ZnW9O34)2]14- leads to an apparent umpolung of the peroxo species and formation of a nucleophilic peroxo intermediate. There are two lines of evidence that support the formation of a reactive nucleophilic peroxo intermediate: (1) More electrophilic sulfoxides are more reactive than more nucleophilic sulfides, and (2) nonfunctionalized aliphatic alkenes and dienes showed ene type reactivity rather than epoxidation pointing toward "dark" formation of singlet oxygen from the nucleophilic intermediate peroxo species. Allylic alcohols reacted much faster than alkenes but showed chemoselectivity toward C-H bond activation of the alcohol and formation of aldehydes or ketones rather than epoxidation. This explained via alkoxide formation at the BiIII center followed by oxidative β-elimination.
NMO·TPB: A selectivity variation on the Ley-Griffith TPAP oxidation

A non-hygroscopic tetraphenylborate salt of N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMO) is reported (NMO·TPB), which modulates the standard Ley-Griffith oxidation such that benzylic and allylic alcohols are oxidised selectively. An attractive feature of this new protocol is that anhydrous conditions are not required for this selective tetra-n-propylammonium perruthenate (TPAP) oxidation, superseding the requirement of molecular sieves.

N,N,N′,N′-Tetramethylethylenediamine dioxide (TMEDAO2) was explored as a more atom economical co-oxidant for the Ley-Griffith oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes. TMEDAO2 was found to selectivity oxidise benzylic and allylic alcohols in comparable yields to that of the standard Ley-Griffith co-oxidant (NMO). Importantly TMEDAO2 facilitated tandem Ley-Griffith-Wittig reactions with stabilised ylides, in good to excellent yields, without the requirement of anhydrous conditions.

An aerobic oxidation of allylic alcohols using Fe(NO3) 3·9H2O/TEMPO/NaCl as catalysts under atmospheric pressure of oxygen at room temperature was developed. This eco-friendly and mild protocol provides a convenient pathway to the synthesis of stereodefined α,β-unsaturated enals or enones with the retention of the C-C double-bond configuration.
