In the reduction of allyl chlorides and acetates with sodium formate in a heptane-water two-phase system, water-soluble palladium complexes function as a novel type of catalyst which transports the substrate into the aqueous phase and causes it to react with sodium formate.

A dealkylative intercepted [2, 3]-sigmatropic rearrangement reaction of allylic sulfides with 2, 2, 2-trifluorodiazoethane (CF3CHN2) is reported, the commercially available and biocompatible catalyst hemin was found to efficiently catalyze this transformation across a diverse set of allylic sulfides with in situ generated CF3CHN2, providing excellent yields (up to 99%) under mild condition without inert gas protection. In addition, CF3CHN2 exhibited unique reactivity toward this process compared with other frequently used diazo reagents. This work expands the range of carbene-mediated transformations catalyzed by hemin and introduces a concise and general strategy for exploiting new possibility of reactions concerning organosulfides.

A straightforward biocatalytic method for the enzymatic preparation of different flavor esters starting from primary alcohols (e.g., isoamyl, n-hexyl, geranyl, cinnamyl, 2-phenethyl, and benzyl alcohols) and naturally available ethyl esters (e.g., formate, acetate, propionate, and butyrate) was developed. The biotransformations are catalyzed by an acyltransferase from Mycobacterium smegmatis (MsAcT) and proceeded with excellent yields (80-97%) and short reaction times (30-120 min), even when high substrate concentrations (up to 0.5 M) were used. This enzymatic strategy represents an efficient alternative to the application of lipases in organic solvents and a significant improvement compared with already known methods in terms of reduced use of organic solvents, paving the way to sustainable and efficient preparation of natural flavoring agents.

A photocatalyzed reaction of pyridine N-oxides with alkenes gives ortho-alkylated pyridines with cleavage of the carbon–carbon double bond. Benzyl and secondary alkyl groups are incorporated at the ortho position of pyridines in one pot.
Lewis Base Promoted Reduction of CO2 with BH3NH3 into Boryl Formates: CO2 as a Carbon Source in Organic Synthesis Under Mild Conditions

supporting information, p. 1739 - 1743 (2018/04/24)
Lewis base promoted selective reduction of CO2 into boryl formates by using BH3NH3 as a reductant under mild conditions has been reported. The boryl formates, generated in situ, were shown to be reactive and versatile sources of formyl compounds to create new C–N, C–O, and C–C bonds. The reactivity of the boryl formates to yield formic acid, formamides, formates, secondary alcohols, and benzoheterocyclic rings was investigated.
An Effective Pt-Cu/SiO2 Catalyst for the Selective Hydrogenation of Cinnamaldehyde
Wang, Dong,Zhu, Yujun
, (2018/05/23)
The bimetal catalyst Pt-Cu/SiO2 was prepared by the impregnation method. Its catalytic performance was investigated by the selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde. Pt-Cu/SiO2 exhibited much higher selectivity (64.1%) to cinnamyl al
Application of polydopamine sulfamic acid-functionalized magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4@PDA-SO3H) as a heterogeneous and recyclable nanocatalyst for the formylation of alcohols and amines under solvent-free conditions

, p. 5075 - 5081 (2017/07/11)
Herein, formylation of structurally different amines and alcohols with ethyl formate was carried out in the presence of a catalytic proportion of sulfonic acid supported on polydopamine (PDA)-encapsulated Fe3O4 nanoparticles as a heterogeneous, recyclable, and greatly efficient catalyst; this method provided the corresponding N-formyl compounds in good to excellent yields under solvent-free conditions. The magnetically catalytic system was recovered, by-passing the time-consuming filtration operation using an external magnet device. This procedure also increases the purity of the product and promises economic and ecological advantages. Furthermore, the recovery and reuse of the catalyst was demonstrated five times without detectable loss in the activity.

, p. 3505 - 3510 (2017/07/27)
The N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed transformylation has been developed for the conversion of 1°, 2°, and 3° alcohols to the corresponding formates. The reaction employs low catalyst loadings and methyl formate as the formyl transfer reagent. The scope of the reaction is broad with 23 examples reported with good yields (59-96%). The reaction is insensitive to common nitrogen and oxygen protecting groups and can be achieved in the presence of a number of heterocycles.

Catalysts made of Pt nanoparticles dispersed on graphene (X wt%Pt/G, X=2.0, 3.5, and 5.0) were prepared and characterized by XRD, Raman spectroscopy, BET surface area measurements, TEM, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and a 3.5 wt% Pt supported on Vulcan Carbon catalyst (3.5 wt%Pt/VC) was included as a reference. Although the mean Pt nanoparticle size is approximately 4.4 nm for all X wt%Pt/G and 3.5 wt%Pt/VC catalysts, cinnamal alcohol was produced with high selectivity only with the graphene-supported catalysts: 92% conversion and 88% selectivity toward cinnamal alcohol were obtained with 3.5 wt%Pt/G. This catalyst also showed good stability in recycling tests. The good selectivity observed with the graphene-based catalysts is attributed to the higher fraction of reduced surface Pt0 atoms seen on the surface of the Pt nanoparticles (determined by XPS). This interpretation is consistent with DFT calculations. Additional π -π interactions between cinnamaldehyde and graphene may also play a role in the selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde.

Different alcohols were formylated by formic acid under solvent-free conditions in the presence of iodine as the catalyst with good-to-high yields at room temperature. I2 generated in situ from Fe(NO3) 3·9H2O/NaI also catalyzed the formylation of the alcohols under solvent-free conditions. This gives a green and efficient reaction at room temperature, in which the use of toxic and corrosive molecular I2 is avoided.
