Using greener solvents, enhancing the selectivity and stability of catalysts is an important aspect of green chemistry. In this work, we developed a route to immobilize Pd nanoparticles on the surface of silica particles with cross-linked polystyrene coating by one-step copolymerization, and Pd(0) nanocatalysts supported on the silica particle supports with cross-linked polystyrene coating were successfully prepared. The catalysts were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), plasma optical emission spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and were used for hydrogenation of 2,4-dimethyl-1,3-pentadiene to produce 2,4-dimethyl-2-pentene and allyl alcohol to produce 1-propanol. It was found that the selectivity of the reaction was enhanced significantly by the polymer coating, and the catalysts were very stable due to the insoluble nature of the cross-linked polymers. Supercritical (sc)CO2 can accelerate the reaction rates of the reactions catalyzed by the specially designed catalysts significantly. The excellent combination of polymer coating and scCO2 has wide potential applications in catalysis.

Water enables new catalytic reactions for otherwise unreactive substrate systems. Under the “on water” reaction conditions, extremely unreactive β,β-disubstituted nitroalkenes smoothly underwent enantioselective Michael addition reactions with dithiomalonates using a chiral squaramide catalyst, affording both enantiomers of highly enantioenriched Michael adducts with all-carbon-substituted quaternary centers. The developed “on water” protocol was successfully applied for the scalable one-pot syntheses of chiral GABA analogs with all-carbon quaternary stereogenic centers at the β-position, which might show highly interesting pharmaceutical properties.
DIARYL AMINE ANTIOXIDANTS PREPARED FROM BRANCHED OLEFINS

Diaryl amines are selectively alkylated by reaction with branched olefins, which olefins are capable of forming tertiary carbonium ions and can be conveniently prepared from readily available branched alcohols. The diaryl amine products are effective antioxidants and often comprise a high amount of di-alkylated diaryl amines and a low amount of tri- and tetra-alkylated diaryl amines.
