ACTIVATION OF REDUCING AGENTS. SODIUM HYDRIDE CONTAINING COMPLEX REDUCING AGENTS 29. EPIMERIZATION OF ALCOHOLS BY NICKEL-CONTAINING COMPLEX REDUCING AGENTS (NiCRA)

Epimerization of selected alcohols has been easily achieved by nickel-containing Complex Reducing Agents (termed NiCRA) prepared from 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-hexanediol.It is shown that these reactions are under thermodynamic control.

Powerful Continuous-Flow Hydrogenation by using Poly(dimethyl)silane-Supported Palladium Catalysts

We developed poly(dimethyl)silane-supported Pd catalysts that are readily prepared from Pd(OAc)2, poly(dimethyl)silane, and Al2O3. The immobilization was achieved for the first time with a support that does not contain benzene rings. The Pd catalyst thus prepared was found to have higher hydrogenation activity than Pd/C. Furthermore, the catalyst was used in continuous-flow hydrogenation with various substrates, including simple liquid substrates (neat) and dissolved solid substrates. Vegetable oils, squalenes, and phosphatidylcholine were successfully hydrogenated on gram to kilogram scales.

Recyclable gold nanoparticle catalyst for the aerobic alcohol oxidation and C-C bond forming reaction between primary alcohols and ketones under ambient conditions

A recyclable gold catalyst is synthesized from readily available reagents by immobilizing gold nanoparticles in aluminum oxyhydroxide support through a simple sol-gel method. The catalyst showed the high activity even at room temperature in the aerobic oxidation of various alcohols and in the coupling reaction between primary alcohols and ketones.
