Conversion of biomass-derived chemicals into light olefins is a promising method to maintain sustainable development of light olefin industry. In this study, three mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolites (MZSM-5-A, MZSM-5-B and MZSM-5-C) with major pore diameter about 4.8 nm, 16 nm and 22 nm were synthesized using a hydrothermal method by utilizing different templates. The catalytic activity of catalysts was studied by catalytic cracking of ethanol and oleic acid. The influence of reaction temperature on conversion and product selectivity was investigated. The characterization of ZSM-5 samples showed that the orders of the external surface area and mesopore volume were MZSM-5-C > MZSM-5-B > MZSM-5-A > conventional HZSM-5. In ethanol to light olefin reaction, MZSM-5-C achieved the highest light olefin yield (318.3 mL g?1) and ethylene selectivity (42.3%) at 400 °C. In oleic acid to light olefin reaction, MZSM-5-B achieved a complete conversion of oleic acid at 500 °C, and obtained the highest light olefin selectivity (38.1%) at 550 °C. The difference may be relevant to the size and chemical structure of feedstock molecular as well as the acidity of catalysts. Regardless of ethanol or oleic acid as feedstock, introduction of mesopore in zeolites significantly enhanced the light olefin yield and selectivity.

Cross-metathesis (CM) of conjugated polyenes, such as 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (1) and α-eleostearic acid methyl ester (2) with several olefins, including 1-hexene, dimethyl maleate and cis-stilbene as model compounds has been carried out using (1,3-bis-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2-imidazolidinylidene)-dichloro(o-isopropoxyphenylmethylene)ruthenium (Hoveyda-Grubbs 2nd generation, HG2) catalyst. The feasibility of these reactions is demonstrated by the observed high conversions and reasonable yields. Thus, regardless of the relatively low electron density, =CH–CH= conjugated units of molecules, including compound 2 as a sustainable, non-foodstuff source, can be utilized as building blocks for the synthesis of various value-added chemicals via olefin metathesis. DFT-studies and the product spectrum of the self-metathesis of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene suggest that a Ru η1-allylidene complex is the active species in the reaction.

Extracts of Egyptian marine organisms from the Red Sea were screened for their anticancer activity using sulforhodamine B assay. The extract of the Red Sea sponge Spheciospongia vagabunda possessed promising anticancer activity against HepG2 (liver cancer cell line) and MCF-7 (breast cancer cell line). Isolation of three new ceramides: N-[(2S,3S,4R)-1,3,4-trihydroxytetradecan-2-yl] tridecanamide (1), (R)-2′-hydroxy-N-[(2S,3S,4R)-1,3,4-trihydroxypentacosan-2-yl] octadecanamide (2) and (R,Z)-2′-hydroxy-N-[(2S,3S,4R)-1,3,4-trihydroxytricosan-2-yl) nonadec-10-enamide (3) was accomplished via bioassay-guided fractionation. Structure elucidation was achieved using spectroscopic techniques, including 1D and 2D NMR and HRMS. Compounds 2 and 3 displayed high potential cytotoxicity against HepG2 (IC50 24.7 and 21.3 μM, respectively) and MCF-7 (IC50 26.8 and 29.8 μM, respectively), compared with doxorubicin as control drug.
