Rapid formation of nitrogen-doped carbon foams by self-foaming as metal-free catalysts for selective oxidation of aromatic alkanes

, (2020)
Porous carbon materials have attracted considerable interest as metal-free catalysts. In this study, we report a nitrogen-doped and nanofiber-based porous carbon foam produced via an efficient and facile self-foaming approach and its subsequent pyrolysis; in this approach, carbon dioxide-rich ethanolamine serves as the foaming agent, N source and polymerization catalyst. Meanwhile resorcinol and formaldehyde are used as carbon sources. Carbon dioxide-rich ethanolamine plays a crucial role in the release of gas as well as initiating polymerization on the interfaces of bubbles, which directs the formation of polymer foam. The N-doped carbon foam can be a highly active metal-free heterogeneous catalyst to promote selective oxidation of the benzyl group to the corresponding phenone. In addition, the carbon foams are easily cast with different morphologies. Notably, the prepared carbon foam is fabricated as a monolithic reactor for the oxidation reaction, which also exhibits good catalytic performances in the scale-up experiment.

A heteroatom-containing organic fluorophore 1-(4-pyridinyl)-1-phenyl-2-(9- carbazolyl)ethene (CP3E) was designed and synthesized. CP 3E exhibits the effect of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) caused by the donor-acceptor interaction between its carbazole and pyridine units. Whereas it emits faintly in solution, it becomes a strong emitter in the aggregated state, demonstrating the phenomenon of aggregation-induced emission (AIE). Its emission can be reversibly switched between blue and dark states by repeated protonation and deprotonation. Such behaviour enables it to work as a fluorescent pH sensor in both solution and the solid state and as a chemosensor for detecting acidic and basic organic vapors. Analyses by NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction and computational calculations suggest that the change in electron affinity of the pyridinyl unit and molecular conformation of CP3E upon protonation and deprotonation is responsible for such sensing processes.
Direct oxidation of the Csp3–H bonds of N-heterocyclic compounds to give the corresponding ketones using a reusable heterogeneous MnOx-N@C catalyst

Novel reusable MnOx-N@C catalyst has been developed for the direct oxidation of N-heterocycles under solvent-free conditions using TBHP as benign oxidant to give the corresponding N-heterocyclic ketones. The catalytic system exhibited a broad substrate scope and excellent regioselectivity, as well as being amenable to gram-scale synthesis. This MnOx-N@C catalyst also showed good reusability and was successfully recycled six times without any significant loss of activity.
Kinetics and mechanism of the reaction of Cr(II) aqua ions with benzoylpyridine N-oxide

, p. 2077 - 2082 (2007)
Aqueous chromium(II) ions, Craq2+, react with benzoylpyridine oxide (BPO) much more rapidly than with other pyridine N-oxides previously explored. The kinetics were studied under pseudo-first order conditions with either reagent in excess. Under both sets of conditions, the major kinetic term exhibits first order dependence on limiting reagent, and second order dependence on excess reagent, i.e. kCr = k2Cr[BPO][Craq2+]2 (excess Craq2+), and kBPO = k2BPO[Craq2+][BPO]2 (excess BPO), where k2Cr = (6.90 +/- 0.27) x 104 M-2s-1 and k2BPO = (3.32 +/- 0.28) x 105 M-2s-1 in 0.10 M HClO4. The rate constant k2Cr contains terms corresponding to [H+]-independent and [H+]-catalyzed paths. In the proposed mechanism, the initially formed Craq(BPO)2+ engages in parallel oxidation of Craq2+ and reduction of BPO. The latter reaction provides the basis for a convenient new preparative route for the BPO complex of Cr(III).
Copper-Catalyzed Oxidation of Hydrazones to Diazo Compounds Using Oxygen as the Terminal Oxidant

A mild method for accessing diazo compounds via aerobic oxidation of hydrazones is described. This catalytic transformation employs a Cu(OAc)2/pyridine catalyst and molecular oxygen from ambient air as the terminal oxidant, generating water as the sole byproduct and affording the desired diazo compounds within minutes at room temperature. A broad array of electronically diverse aryldiazo esters, ketones, and amides can be accessed. Pyridine dramatically enhances the rate of the reaction by solubilizing the copper catalyst and serving as the Br?nsted base in the turnover-limiting proton-coupled oxidation of hydrazone by copper(II). Insights gained from mechanistic studies led to expansion of the scope of this method to include diaryl hydrazones, delivering diaryl diazomethane derivatives, which cannot be accessed via established diazo transfer methods. The products of this method may be employed in rhodium carbene catalysis without isolation of the diazo intermediate to afford cyclopropane products in good yield with high enantioselectivity.

Chlorine is the 20th most abundant element on the earth compared to bromine, iodine, and fluorine, a sulfonimide reagent, N-chloro-N-(phenylsulfonyl)benzenesulfonamide (NCBSI) was identified as a mild and selective oxidant. Without activation, the reagent was proved to oxidize primary and secondary alcohols as well as their symmetrical and mixed ethers to corresponding aldehydes and ketones. With recoverable PS-TEMPO catalyst, selective oxidation over chlorination of primary and secondary alcohols and their ethers with electron-donating substituents was achieved. The reagent precursor of NCBSI was recovered quantitatively and can be reused for synthesizing NCBSI.

The synthesis of four novel non-symmetric Ni(ii)-POCOP pincer complexesmeta-functionalized with either benzothiazole or benzimidazole at the central aryl ring is described. All complexes were fully characterised in solution by various analytical techniques and the molecular structures in the solid state of complexes1b,2aand2bwere unequivocally determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. In addition, the Ni(ii)-POCOP pincer complexes were efficiently used as catalysts in the synthesis of diarylketones by cross-coupling reactions of functionalized benzaldehydes and boronic acid derivatives under relatively mild conditions. An important aspect of this transformation is the dependence on the steric properties of the donor groups (OPR2) of the pincer ligands, the more active compounds having the phosphinitos bearing isopropyl groups (1aand2a) than those containingtert-butyl substituents (1band2b).

An efficient and practical benzylic aerobic oxidation catalyzed by cheap and simple N-hydroxyimide organocatalyst has been achieved with high yields and broad substrate scope. The organocatalyst used can be recycled and reused by simple workup and only minute amount (1 mol% in most cases) of simple iron salt is used as promoter. Phenyl substrates with mild and strong electron-withdrawing group could also be oxygenated in high yields as well as other benzylic methylenes. Influence of substituents, gram-scale application, catalysts decay and general mechanism of this methodology has also been discussed. This journal is

A selective electrochemical oxidation was developed under mild condition. Various mono-carbonyl and multi-carbonyl compounds can be prepared from different aromatic hydrocarbons with moderate to excellent yield and selectivity by virtue of this electrochemical oxidation. The produced carbonyl compounds can be further transformed into α-ketoamides, homoallylic alcohols and oximes in a one-pot reaction. In particular, a series of α-ketoamides were prepared in a one-pot continuous electrolysis. Mechanistic studies showed that 2,2,2-trifluoroethan-1-ol (TFE) can interact with catalyst species and generate the corresponding hydrogen-bonding complex to enhance the electrochemical oxidation performance.
