Vapor-phase catalytic dehydration of 1,5-pentanediol (1,5-PDO) was investigated over monoclinic ZrO2 catalysts modified with basic oxides. An unsaturated alcohol, 4-penten-1-ol (4P1OL), was produced together with the formation of tetrahydropyran, δ-valerolactone, 1,4-pentadiene, pentanal, 1-pentanol, and 5-hydroxypentanal, etc. Among the modified ZrO2 catalysts, only ZrO2 modified with MgO enhanced the selectivity to 4P1OL efficiently. The most active modified catalyst was found to have 20 mol% MgO and a calcination at 800 °C (MgO/ZrO2), and the selectivity of 4P1OL exceeded 83% at 400 °C. A pulse adsorption measurement of several chemicals clarified adsorptive interaction between a reactant and a catalyst at 220 °C: the interaction between 1,5-PDO and MgO/ZrO2 was stronger than the other adsorbates and catalysts. Another strong adsorptive interaction between 1,4-butanediol and CaO/ZrO2, which was effective in the dehydration of 1,4-butanediol to produce 3-buten-1-ol, was also observed.

The optimum conditions for the hydrogenation of 2,3-dihydropyran to tetrahydropyran on an industrial nickel-chromium catalyst under flow and periodic conditions were found. A regression model for the process was found. The results of hydrogenation of 2,3-dihydropyran by means of a flow reactor and an autoclave of the Vishnevskii type are compared.

The catalytic hydrogenation activity of the readily prepared, coordinatively saturated cobalt(I) precatalyst, (R,R)-(iPrDuPhos)Co(CO)2H ((R,R)-iPrDuPhos = (+)-1,2-bis[(2R,5R)-2,5-diisopropylphospholano]benzene), is described. While efficient turnover was observed with a range of alkenes upon heating to 100 °C, the catalytic performance of the cobalt catalyst was markedly enhanced upon irradiation with blue light at 35 °C. This improved reactivity enabled hydrogenation of terminal, di-, and trisubstituted alkenes, alkynes, and carbonyl compounds. A combination of deuterium labeling studies, hydrogenation of alkenes containing radical clocks, and experiments probing relative rates supports a hydrogen atom transfer pathway under thermal conditions that is enabled by a relatively weak cobalt-hydrogen bond of 54 kcal/mol. In contrast, data for the photocatalytic reactions support light-induced dissociation of a carbonyl ligand followed by a coordination-insertion sequence where the product is released by combination of a cobalt alkyl intermediate with the starting hydride, (R,R)-(iPrDuPhos)Co(CO)2H. These results demonstrate the versatility of catalysis with Earth-abundant metals as pathways involving open-versus closed-shell intermediates can be switched by the energy source.

O-heterocycles have wide applications, and their efficient and green synthesis is very interesting. Herein, we report hydrogen-bonding catalyzed ring-closing metathesis of aliphatic ethers to O-heterocycles over ionic liquid (IL) catalyst under metal- and solvent-free conditions. The IL 1-butylsulfonate-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([SO3H-BMIm][OTf]) is discovered to show outstanding performance, better than the reported catalysts. An interface effect plays an important role in mediating the reaction rate due to the immiscibility between the products and the IL catalyst, and the products can be spontaneously separated. NMR analysis and DFT calculation suggest that a pair of cation and anion of [SO3H-BMIm][OTf] could form three strong H-bonds with an ether molecule, which catalyze the ether transformation via a cyclic oxonium intermediate. A series of O-heterocycles including tetrahydrofurans, tetrahydropyrans, morpholines and dioxane can be obtained from their corresponding ethers in excellent yields (e.g., >99 %). This work opens an efficient and metal-free way to produce O-heterocycles from aliphatic ethers.
Efficient one-pot conversion of furfural into 2-methyltetrahydrofuran using non-precious metal catalysts

2-methyltetrahydrofuran, a biomass-derived chemical, is an important solvent with broad applications in organic chemistry. In this study, one-pot conversion of furfural into 2-methyltetrahydrofuran over non-precious metal catalysts was achieved by two-stage packing in a single reactor. The first stage converted furfural into 2-methylfuran over Co-based catalysts, and the second stage converted 2-methylfuran into 2-methyltetrahydrofuran over Ni-based catalysts. In order to reveal the reaction pathway and mechanism of this process, the hydrogenation reactions of 2-methylfuran, furfuryl alcohol, and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol were also carefully investigated. It is discovered that the conversion of furfural into 2-methylfuran could be catalyzed by Lewis acid sites, which was confirmed by a correlation between 2-methylfuran production rate and Lewis acid site density. Also, a mechanism on the direct conversion of furfural into 2-methylfuran without forming furfuryl alcohol as the intermediate is proposed. The experimental results of 2-methylfuran, furfuryl alcohol, and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol hydrogenation/hydrodeoxygenation over various catalysts provided valuable information on the future design of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran catalyst.
