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.

Cyclic ethers were produced by a dehydration reaction of polyalcohol compounds in high temperature liquid water, which was accelerated by the presence of carbon dioxide dissolved in the water. 3-hydroxytetrahydrofuran was produced by the dehydration of 1,2,4-butanetriol. Both tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol and 3-hydroxytetrahydropyran were produced by the dehydration of 1,2,5-pentanetriol. Five-membered cyclic ethers were formed faster than six-membered cyclic ethers and the formation rates of the cyclic ethers depended strongly on the structure of the polyalcohol compounds. The position of the hydroxyl groups is crucial for the efficient intramolecular dehydration.

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.

Functionalized biochars, renewable carbon materials prepared from waste biomass, can catalyze transformations of a range of oxygen-containing substrates via hydrogen-bonding interactions. Good conversions (up to 75.2 %) to different O-heterocycles are obtained from ring-closing C?O/C?O metathesis reactions of different aliphatic ethers under optimized conditions using this heterogeneous, metal-free, and easy separable catalyst. The diversity in the sorts of O-containing feedstocks is further demonstrated by the utilization of functionalized biochar to promote the esterification of terpene alcohols, an important reaction in food and flavor industries. Under the optimized conditions, full conversions to various terpene esters are obtained. Moreover, both of the reactions studied herein are performed under neat conditions, thus increasing the overall sustainability of the process described.

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.

Pd and Ru nanoparticles supported on graphene oxide (GO) [Pd?GO and Ru?GO] and bimetallic [Pd/Ru?GO] were prepared and well characterized by XRD, FT-IR, EDS, TEM, XPS and ICP-AES analyses. The prepared nano-catalysts were tested for hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of lignin monomer molecules-vanillyl alcohol and vanillin. In comparison with previously reported methods, Ru?GO and bimetallic Pd/Ru?GO catalysts showed high activity and selectivity, under milder conditions, at room temperature and 145 psi H2 pressure, for the formation of p-creosol, a value added product, as a potential future biofuel with antibacterial and anti-insecticidal properties. The multifold advantages of both these catalysts are in terms of reduced catalyst loading with a lower metal content and ambient temperture conditions resulting in higher conversion of the starting material. Furthermore, the efficacy of the developed methodology using Ru?GO and bimetallic Pd/Ru?GO catalysts under the optimized conditions was tested on the phenolic components of commercial lignin obtained by photo-catalytic fragmentation using TiO2, to obtain a mixture after HDO which contained vanillyl alcohol and p-creosol among others, as indicated by HPLC-MS analysis.
