A mild and efficient chemoselective tetrahydropyranylation of primary alcohols using La(NO3)3·6H2O as a catalyst under solvent-free conditions

Primary alcohols undergo selective and efficient tetrahydropyranylation in the presence of a catalytic amount of La(NO3)3?6H2O under solvent-free conditions.

Highly selective tetrahydropyranylation/dehydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols using porous phenolsulfonic acid-formaldehyde resin catalyst under solvent-free condition

An efficient protocol for solvent-free chemoselective tetrahydropyranylation/depyranylation of alcohols and phenols is reported herein using mesoporous Phenolsulfonic Acid Formaldehyde Resins as a heterogeneous acid catalyst. The catalyst successfully performed chemoselective protection and deprotection reactions of a wide range of substrates ranging from primary to secondary and tertiary alcohols and also phenols. The reactions were carried out at ambient temperature under solvent-free condition (SolFC) which resulted in high yields within a very short time. FT-IR, TEM, SEM, EDS and TG-DSC analysis techniques were employed to characterize the synthesized polymeric catalyst. The chemoselective nature of our method was confirmed using 13C DEPT-135 NMR studies. The polymer catalyst was found to be recoverable even after 10th catalytic cycle without much depreciation in its activity. The heterogeneity of the catalyst was verified by hot filtration method. Good yield, energy and cost- effective method, solvent-free protocol, mild reaction conditions, no inert atmosphere, metal-free heterogeneous polymer catalyst and excellent recoverability of the catalyst are notable milestones of the reported protocol.

Cyclopropenium Enhanced Thiourea Catalysis

An integral part of modern organocatalysis is the development and application of thiourea catalysts. Here, as part of our program aimed at developing cyclopropenium catalysts, the synthesis of a thiourea-cyclopropenium organocatalyst with both cationic hydrogen-bond donor and electrostatic character is reported. The utility of the this thiourea organocatalyst is showcased in pyranylation reactions employing phenols, primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols under operationally simple and mild reaction conditions for a broad substrate scope. The addition of benzoic acid as a co-catalyst facilitating cooperative Br?nsted acid catalysis was found to be valuable for reactions involving phenols and higher substituted alcohols. Mechanistic investigations, including kinetic and 1H NMR binding studies in conjunction with density function theory calculations, are described that collectively support a Br?nsted acid mode of catalysis.

Heterogeneous acidic catalysts for the tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols in green ethereal solvents

The application of heterogeneous catalysis and green solvents to the set up of widely employed reactions is a challenge in contemporary organic chemistry. We applied such an approach to the synthesis and further conversion of tetrahydropyranyl ethers, an important class of compounds widely employed in multistep syntheses. Several alcohols and phenols were almost quantitatively converted into the corresponding tetrahydropyranyl ethers in cyclopentyl methyl ether or 2-methyltetrahydrofuran employing NH4HSO4 supported on SiO2 as a recyclable acidic catalyst. Easy work up of the reaction mixtures and the versatility of the solvents allowed further conversion of the reaction products under one-pot reaction conditions.

Magnetic Fe3O4@silica sulfuric acid nanoparticles promoted regioselective protection/deprotection of alcohols with dihydropyran under solvent-free conditions

Protection (and deprotection) of hydroxyl groups via tetrahydropyranylation was carried out effectively using a catalytic amount of Fe3O4 supported silica sulphuric acid nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2@SO3H) under solvent-free conditions. The synthesized nanocatalyst was characterized by XRD, TEM, FT-IR etc. A wide range of tetrahydropyranylated alcohol derivatives were synthesized using this heterogeneous magnetic nanocatalyst within 10-20 min with high yields. In addition, tetrahydropyranyl ethers could also be deprotected to the parent alcoholic compounds in the presence of MeOH using the same catalyst. After completion of the reactions, the catalyst was easily separated from the reaction medium using an external magnet, which ameliorated the overall synthetic process. The catalyst was recovered and reused for five successive reactions without any appreciable loss in its activity. Mild reactions conditions, operational simplicity, solvent free conditions, high selectivity, easy recyclability of the magnetic nanocatalyst, and high yields can be considered as the advantageous features of our procedure.

Magnetic nanoparticle-supported DABCO tribromide: A versatile nanocatalyst for the synthesis of quinazolinones and benzimidazoles and protection/deprotection of hydroxyl groups

1,4-Diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane tribromide supported on magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (MNPs-DABCO tribromide) as a novel heterogeneous tribromide type compound was found to be an efficient and reusable nanocatalyst for the one-pot synthesis of 2-arylquinazolin-4(3H)-ones and 2-aryl-1H-benzo[d]imidazoles through oxidative cyclization of aldehydes with 2-aminobenzamides and 1,2-phenylenediamine, respectively. Also, MNPs-DABCO tribromide catalyzed trimethylsilylation/tetrahydropyranylation and desilylation/depyranylation of a wide variety of alcohols and phenols through changing the solvent medium at room temperature.

Tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols catalyzed by a new multi-wall carbon nanotubes-bound tin(IV) porphyrin

Abstract: In the present study, tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols with 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (DHP) using tetrakis(p-aminophenyl)porphyrinatotin(IV) trifluoromethanesulfonate, [SnIV(TNH2PP)(OTf)2], and tetrakis(p-aminophenyl)porphyrinatotin(IV) tetrafluoroborate, [SnIV(TNH2PP)(BF4)2], supported on multi-wall carbon nanotubes as new catalytic systems is investigated. These new catalysts, [SnIV(TNH2PP)(OTf)2@MWCNT] and [SnIV(TNH2PP)(BF4)2@MWCNT], were characterized using elemental analysis, FT-IR spectroscopic techniques, scanning electron microscopy and diffuse reflectance UV–Vis spectroscopic methods. In these catalytic systems, an optimization on the amounts of catalysts and amount of DHP was done in the tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols with DHP and the best outcomes were received in the presence of 0.01?mmol (40?mg) of [SnIV(TNH2PP)(OTf)2@MWCNT] and [SnIV(TNH2PP)(BF4)2@MWCNT] with 2?mmol of DHP. Efficiency and reusability are two important features of these new heterogenized catalysts for tetrahydropyranylation of primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols as well as phenols at room temperature. These catalysts were recovered several times with no loss on their initial activity, which indicates their high reusability and stability.

Single-Electron-Transfer Strategy for Reductive Radical Cyclization: Fe(CO)5 and Phenanthroline System

An electron-transfer strategy using low-valent iron pentacarbonyl [Fe(CO)5] to generate radical species from alkyl iodides was achieved. A range of pyrrolidines, tetrahydrofurans, and carbocycles were synthesized via 5-exo cyclization reactions of alkyl radical intermediates generated by electron transfer from a system involving Fe(CO)5, 1,10-phenanthroline, and diisopropylamine. Moreover, tandem addition reactions with Michael acceptors were also explored. Photophysical and electrochemical studies support a mechanism that involves electron transfer from the low-valent Fe reductant to alkyl iodide.

Supported N-propylsulfamic acid onto Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles as a reusable and efficient nanocatalyst for the protection/deprotection of hydroxyl groups and protection of aldehydes

N-propylsulfamic acid supported onto Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs-PSA) as an efficient and magnetically reusable nanocatalyst has been reported for the tetrahydropyranylation/depyranylation of a wide variety of alcohols and phenols by changing the solvent medium. Also, the protection of aldehydes as acylals using Ac2O in the presence of catalytic amount MNPs-PSA in good to high yields at room temperature under solvent-free conditions is described. After completing the reaction, the catalyst was easily separated from the reaction mixture with the assistance of an external magnetic field and reused for several consecutive runs without significant loss of their catalytic efficiency.
