Use of Iron oxyhydroxide (γ-FeO(OH)) as a robust catalyst for the synthesis of important intermediates like pseudoionones and their analogues through the C-C bond formation reactions like knoevenagel and aldol condensation is explored. These motifs are the building blocks for the construction of the sesquiterpenes as well as the diterpenes such as retinoic acid, Vitamin A etc. Iron oxyhydroxide (γ-FeO(OH)) was synthesized and well characterized using XRD, FT-IR, TEM, XPS and adsorption studies to establish the catalytic activity. A thorough investigation on the nature of basic sites and the role of water as a promoter was explored based on dye adsorption, in situ methanol dissociation and CO2 adsorption studies. The catalyst also showed a wide range of substrate scope with active methylene groups involving various functional groups such as cyanides, esters and acetophenones along with its stability and reproducibility.

Rehydration of Mg-Al hydrotalcite in the liquid phase using ultrasounds or a high stirring speed leads to nanoplatelets with surface areas of 400 m 2 g-1, displaying catalytic activities in aldol condensations up to 8 times higher than the best catalytic system reported in the literature.

KF/γ-alumina is an effective catalyst for the aldol condensation of citral with acetone. Even at a relatively low acetone/citral ratio of 1-10, the selectivity to pseudoionones was high, ranging between 82% and 97%. X-ray diffraction shows the presence of KF and K3AlF6 crystallographic phases on the supported catalyst. At KF loadings of 3-6.75 mmol g-1, a pretreatment of the catalyst by heating to 450 °C was necessary to obtain an active catalyst. However, samples with KF loadings of 8.5 mmol g-1 and higher were active even without pretreatment, facilitating handling and use of the catalysts. The development of (1 1 1) planes revealed by in situ XRD during the thermal activation process correlates with the activity for aldol condensation.

Increasing the basicity and catalytic activity of hydrotalcites by different synthesis procedures
Climent,Corma,Iborra,Epping,Velty
, p. 316 - 326 (2004)
Hydrotalcites have been synthesized by three different procedures: conventional precipitation-aging, aging under microwave irradiation, and sonication during the coprecipitation step. The synthesis procedure has an effect on the crystal size and textural properties of the hydrotalcite (HT) and the Al2O3-MgO mixed oxides formed upon calcination. HT samples prepared under sonication at 298 K are formed by dispersed and homogenous particles of 80-nm average particle size. They also produce upon calcinations the mixed oxides with the largest surface area (~300 m 2g-1). This method of preparation increases not only the surface area but also the number of defects in the solid, leading to sites of higher basicity. This was determined by means of catalytic reactions such as Knoevenagel and aldol condensations which demand basic sites of different strengths. Hydrotalcites were regenerated from mixed oxides by hydration while giving Broensted basic sites. Samples originally prepared by sonication present smaller crystallite size and have a larger number of accessible active sites. With these samples acetone/citral condensations with 96 and 99% conversion and selectivity, respectively, are achieved in a 15-min reaction time.
