An efficient method to prepare aryl acetates by the carbonylation of aryl methyl ethers or phenols

Synthesis of valuable chemicals from lignin based compounds is critical for the application of biomass. Here, we develop a method of preparing aryl acetates by the carbonylation of aryl methyl ethers or phenols under low CO pressure. Good to excellent yields of aryl acetates were obtained using different substrates, and a possible reaction mechanism was proposed by conducting a series of control experiments. This method may provide a potential way for the utilization of lignin.

Method for synthesizing aromaticnitrile by using metalloporphyrin to catalyze aromatic olefin

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing aromaticnitrile by using metalloporphyrin to catalyze aromatic olefin. The method is characterized in that an aromatic alkene compound or an aromaticheterocyclic alkene compound and nitrite are reacted to generate an aromaticnitrile compound or an aromatic heterocyclic nitrile compound under the catalyzing function of the metalloporphyrin by a one-step method in air atmosphere and an acid solution system. The method has the advantages that (1) the reaction conditions are moderate, the operation is simple, the control is easy, and the yield rate is higher; (2) the high-efficiency metalloporphyrin catalyst is used, but the poisonous CN (carbon-nitrogen) negative ion reagent is not used, so that the pollution to the environment is decreased;(3) the prices of raw materials, nitrogen sources, acid reagents and the like are low, the obtaining is easy, the production cost is obviously reduced, and the method can be popularized and applied toindustrialized production.

Direct synthesis of nitriles from cleavage of C=C double bond with nitrite as the nitrogen source and oxidant

The transformation of the C=C bond of olefin to nitriles has been developed, using easily available NaNO2 as both the nitrogen source and oxidant. Several aryl, heterocyclic nitriles with various substituting groups could be successfully prepared in good to high yields. Based upon experimental observations, a possible reaction mechanism is proposed.
