Microwave-assisted dehydration-oxidation of β-bromo-tert-alcohols to afford 2,3-unsaturated ketones in good yield is reported. The reaction of substrates with DMSO in 1:1 ratio (w/v) is promoted by ZnS in a solvent-free condition. A concurrent bi-functional activation of trans-vicinal bromo- and hydroxyl groups with ZnS is elucidated. This is a new observation under microwave and applies to β-bromo-tert-alcohols derived from 1,4-disubstitued-1-cyclohexenes. It is very useful in the synthesis of 2,3-unsaturated ketones derived from monoterpenes which are valuable flavour compounds. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]
Kinetics of the Aqueous Phase Reactions of Atmospherically Relevant Monoterpene Epoxides

Laboratory and field measurements have demonstrated that an isoprene-derived epoxide intermediate (IEPOX) is the origin of a wide range of chemical species found in ambient secondary organic aerosol (SOA). In order to explore the potential relevance of a similar mechanism for the formation of monoterpene-derived SOA, nuclear magnetic resonance techniques were used to study kinetics and reaction products of the aqueous-phase reactions of several monoterpene epoxides: β-pinene oxide, limonene oxide, and limonene dioxide. The present results, combined with a previous study of α-pinene oxide, indicate that all of these epoxides will react more quickly than IEPOX with aqueous atmospheric particles, even under low-acidity conditions. As for α-pinene oxide, the observed products can be mainly rationalized with a hydrolysis mechanism, and no long-lived organosulfate or nitrate species nor species that retain the β-pinene bicyclic carbon backbone are observed. As bicyclic ring-retaining organosulfate and nitrate species have been previously observed in monoterpene-derived SOA, it appears that monoterpene-derived epoxides may not be as versatile as IEPOX in producing a range of SOA species, and other mechanisms are needed to rationalize organosulfate and nitrate formation.

An NADP+-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase (allyl-ADH) was isolated from the cultured cells of Nicotiana tabacum. The allyl-ADH was found to be efficient for the dehydrogenation of secondary allylic alcohols rather than saturated secondary alcohols and it was specific for the S-stereoisomer of the alcohols. The enzyme catalyzed the reversible reaction whereby the carbonyl group of enones is reduced to the corresponding allylic alcohol or vice versa. Two possible primary structures of the allyl-ADH were deduced by the sequence analyses of full-length cDNAs (ally-ADH1 and ally-ADH2), which were cloned by the PCR method. These analyses indicated that the allyl-ADHs are composed of 343 amino acids-having the molecular weights 38 083 and 37 994, respectively, and they showed approximately 70% homology to the NADP+-dependent oxidoreductases belonging to a plant ζ-crystallin family.

Pd nanoparticles generated on gel type ion-exchange resins under catalytic conditions show high activity, selectivity and durability in partial hydrogenation reactions under mild conditions, thus providing a green, low-cost option for fine-chemicals production. The application to the continuous-flow synthesis of the leaf alcohol fragrance cis-3-hexen-1-ol is demonstrated.
Stereoselective reduction of (R)-(-)-carvone with sodium dithionite in the presence of cyclomaltoheptaose (β-cyclodextrin) and its heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl) derivative

The authors have studied the competition between l,4 and l,2-reduction of the conjugated enone (r)-(-)-carvone in the presence of cyclomaltoheptaose and its heptakis derivative using sodium dithionite as a reducing agent in aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate with or without benzene. The spectrum of products namely the ketones and the alcohols expected from the non-selective reduction of an organic compound is shown.

Terpenes are an abundant class of natural products, which is important for flavor and fragrance industry. Many acid catalyzed reactions used for upgrading terpenes still involve mineral acids as homogeneous catalysts and/or toxic solvents. Heteropoly acids represent a well-established eco-friendly alternative to conventional acid catalysts. As these reactions are usually performed in the liquid phase, solvents play a critical role for the process sustainability. In the present work, we developed a catalytic route to valuable fragrance ingredients, dihydrocarvone and carvenone, from limonene oxide by its isomerization using silica-supported tungstophosphoric acid as a heterogeneous catalyst and dialkylcarbonates as green solvents. The reaction pathway can be switched between dihydrocarvone and carvenone (obtained in 90% yield each) simply by changing the reaction temperature. In addition, we developed an efficient method for kinetic separation of trans-limonene oxide from commercial cis/trans-limonene oxide mixture and stereoselective synthesis of trans-dihydrocarvone.

Chiral carveol and dihydrocarveol are important additives in the flavor industry and building blocks in the synthesis of natural products. Despite the remarkable progress in asymmetric catalysis, convenient access to all possible stereoisomers of carveol and dihydrocarveol remains a challenge. Here, we present the stereodivergent synthesis of carveol and dihydrocarveol through ketoreductases/ene-reductases catalyzed asymmetric reduction. By directly asymmetric reduction of (R)- and (S)-carvone using ketoreductases, which have Prelog or anti-Prelog stereopreference, all four possible stereoisomers of carveol with medium to high diastereomeric excesses (up to >99 %) were first observed. Then four stereoisomers of dihydrocarvone were prepared through ene-reductases catalyzed diastereoselective synthesis. Asymmetric reduction of obtained dihydrocarvone isomers by ketoreductases further provide access to all eight stereoisomeric dihydrocarveol with up to 95 % de values. In addition, the absolute configurations of dihydrocarveol stereoisomers were determined by using modified Mosher's method.

Selective hydrogenation of natural carvone to industrially valuable dihydrocarvone was carried out at 100°C under hydrogen pressure over a 1.9wt.% Au/TiO2 catalyst. The gold catalyst has demonstrated high activity as well as stereo- and chemoselectivity in conjugated C=C double bond hydrogenation with predominant formation of trans-dihydrocarvone. The catalytic activity and trans-to cis-isomers ratio were shown to strongly depend on the solvent. In a range of C1 - C3 alcohol solvents both catalytic activity and trans-to cis-dihydrocarvone ratio increased following the order: 2-propanol a nearly complete carvone conversion (90%) after 13h in the case of methanol, with the trans-to cis-dihydrocarvone ratio being about 1.8. Based on the transition state theory a quantitative description of trans-to cis-dihydrocarvone ratio variations in different solvents was made.
Direct conversion of tert-β-bromo alcohols to ketones with zinc sulfide and DMSO
Bettadaiah,Gurudutt,Srinivas
, p. 2460 - 2462 (2003)
tert-β-Bromo alcohols, derived from simple monoterpene hydrocarbons, react with zinc sulfide in dimethyl sulfoxide to afford saturated ketones as the major and hydroxy ketones as the minor products. The reaction involves initial nucleophilic attack by DMSO on the carbon attached to the halogen, which is assisted by electrophilic zinc sulfide. Subsequent Kornblum type oxidation yields the α-hydroxy ketone. On the other hand, abstraction of proton β to the hydroxyl group followed by an attack of the neighboring hydroxyl moiety on the sulfur of the dimethylsulfoxonium intermediate and its subsequent collapse yields an enol, which tautomerizes to a saturated ketone. The latter pathway is predominantly followed.
REGIOSPECIFIC RDUCTION OF UNSATURATED CONJUGATED KETONES WITH SODIUM DITHIONITE UNDER PHASE TRANSFER CATALYSIS
Camps, Francisco,Coll, Jose,Guitart, Josefa
, p. 4603 - 4610 (1986)
Selective double bond reduction of unsaturated conjugated ketones has been achieved in excellent yields by use of sodium dithionite in a two phase benzene-water system with Adogen as phase transfer catalyst.However, this reduction was unsatisfactory for hydrophilic ketones; in this case, competitive reactions led to the predominant formation of water soluble sulfur derivatives, similar to those obtained in the reaction of unsaturated conjugated ketones with sodium dithionite in aqueous dimethylformamide.
