Cellulose sulfate was synthesized by esterification of α-cellulose with concentrated sulfuric acid at ?10°C in ethanol. Cellulose is mainly sulfated on 3-, 6- and 3, 6-positions of the cellulose. It acts as a heterogeneous catalyst for the ring-opening of epoxides with alcohols or anilines and the Friedel-Crafts reaction between N-benzylindole and crotonaldehyde at room temperature. Methanolysis of cyclic epoxides, styrene oxide, terminal aliphatic epoxides, and glycidyl ethers were carried out using the catalyst (0.4–6.8 mg/mmol of epoxide) and afforded the corresponding products in 53–97% isolated yields after 10 min–24 h. Cellulose sulfate was successfully recycled and reused up to 3 catalytic cycles for the ring-opening of styrene oxide with methanol.

It has been shown for a wide range of epoxy compounds that their interaction with triphenylphosphonium triflate occurs with a high chemoselectivity and leads to the formation of (2-hydroxypropyl)triphenylphosphonium triflates 3 substituted in the 3-position with an alkoxy, alkylcarboxyl group, or halogen, which were isolated in a high yield. Using the methodology for the disclosure of epichlorohydrin with alcohols in the presence of boron trifluoride ether-ate, followed by the substitution of iodine for chlorine and treatment with triphenylphosphine, 2-hydroxypropyltriphenylphosphonium iodides 4 were also obtained. The molecular and supramolec-ular structure of the obtained phosphonium salts was established, and their high antitumor activity was revealed in relation to duodenal adenocarcinoma. The formation of liposomal systems based on phosphonium salt 3 and L-α-phosphatidylcholine (PC) was employed for improving the bioavailabil-ity and reducing the toxicity. They were produced by the thin film rehydration method and exhibited cytotoxic properties. This rational design of phosphonium salts 3 and 4 has promising potential of new vectors for targeted delivery into mitochondria of tumor cells.

A novel macromolecular-metal coordination complex, MBA-cross-linked PNVP/FeCl3 material was fabricated by immobilization of water intolerant ferric chloride onto the porous cross-linked poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) carrier beads as a macromolecular ligand or carrier which was prepared by suspension free-radical copolymerization of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (NVP) and N,N′-methylene bis-acrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinking agent in water. The obtained PNVP/FeCl3 was characterized by UV/vis and FT-IR spectroscopies, TGA, FE-SEM, EDX, and ICP techniques. This heterogenized version of ferric chloride is a convenient and safe alternative to highly water intolerant ferric chloride. The catalytic performance of (PNVP/FeCl3) as an efficient and recyclable polymeric Lewis acid catalyst was appropriately probed in the regio-and stereoselective nucleophilic ring opening of various epoxides with various alcohols in excellent yields with TOF up to 182.48 h?1 without generating any waste. The activity data indicate that this heterogeneous catalyst is very active and could be easily recovered, and reused at least six times without appreciable loss of activity indicating its stability under experimental conditions.

The epoxidation of allyl chloride (ALC) to epichlorohydrin (ECH) with H2O2 using a piperidine (PI)-modified Ti-MWW catalyst (Ti-MWW-PI) in a continuous slurry reactor was investigated to develop an efficient reaction system for the corresponding industrial process. The reaction parameters, including solvent, reaction temperature, t-butanol/ALC mass ratio, ALC/H2O2 molar ratio, weight hourly space velocity of H2O2, and the addition amount of ammonia, were studied in detail to pursue high H2O2 conversion and ECH selectivity. A long catalytic lifetime of 244 h was achieved at high H2O2 conversion (>97.0%) and ECH selectivity (>99.8%) under optimized reaction conditions. The crystallinity was well maintained for the deactivated Ti-MWW-PI catalyst, which was regenerated by a combination of calcination and piperidine treatment. This journal is

A useful optimized synthetic methodology has been designed for the synthesis of nonsymmetric glyceryl diethers from epichlorohydrin. A tandem process combining a cheap, heterogeneous, and fully recoverable acid catalyst and alkaline hydroxide is used for the synthesis of a variety of glycerol-derived ethers bearing different alkyl substituents in 1 and 3 positions. Different heterogeneous acid catalysts have been tested for the reaction of epichlorohydrin with several alcohols, the best results being obtained with readily available recoverable and inexpensive montmorillonite-K10 and Nafion NR50. For the second reaction step, potassium hydroxide is used. In all the cases, good yields of the desired glyceryl diethers are obtained in smooth reaction conditions, always with total conversion of epichlorohydrin and without the need of intermediate purification. Scale-up of the tandem process has been carried out with good results.

Herein, a newly designed fiber-supported iron catalyst was successfully synthesized by rooting diamine ligands into the surface layer of commercially available polyacrylonitrile fiber and then utilizing the diamine groups to immobilize Fe(iii) ions for heterogeneous catalytic ring-opening reactions. The resulting materials were characterized and observed in detail by elemental analysis, mechanical properties, FTIR spectroscopy and morphology during both the preparation and the utilization processes. Moreover, the fiber catalyst was used in the spinning basket reactor-mediated ring-opening of various epoxides by a series of alcohols under mild reaction conditions, giving good to quantitative yields of the corresponding β-alkoxy alcohols. In addition, the fiber catalyst in the impellers of the agitation system was shown to be reusable multiple times without leaching of the Fe(iii) ions, and when stored on the shelf remained equally active for at least three months. Furthermore, the catalytic system was convenient and effective for scaling-up experiments and thereby has prospects in industrial applications.

Lewis acidic catalytic materials are investigated for the regioselective ring opening of epoxides with alcohols. For ring opening epichlorohydrin with methanol, the catalytic activity shows a strong dependence on the type of support and Lewis acidic species used. While Sn-SBA-15 is catalytically active, significantly higher catalytic activity can be achieved with hydrothermally synthesized zeolites of which Sn-Beta is 6 and 7 times more active than Zr-Beta or Hf-Beta, respectively. Sn-Beta is determined to be more active and more regioselective for epoxide ring opening of epichlorohydrin with methanol than Al-Beta. For Sn-Beta, the activation energy for the reaction between epichlorohydrin and methanol is determined to be 53 ± 7 kJ mol?1. For epichlorohydrin, the activation energy barrier and experimentally observed regioselectivity are found using DFT to be consistent with a concerted reaction mechanism involving activation of the epoxide on an alcohol adsorbed on the catalytic site and nucleophilic attack by a second alcohol. The epoxide is shown to impact the regioselectivity and the mechanism since isobutylene oxide is selectively ring opened by methanol to form the terminal alcohol. DFT calculations indicate the mechanism for isobutylene ring opening involves epoxide activation and ring opening on an alcohol adsorbed onto the catalytic site. Finally, catalyst reuse testing indicates that Sn-Beta can be used for multiple reactions with no decrease in activity and limited to no leaching of the tin site, demonstrating Sn-Beta is a promising catalytic material for epoxide ring opening reactions with alcohols.

Biomass-derived γ-valerolactone (GVL) could exfoliate bulk g-C3N4 to form a super-stable dispersion of few-layer g-C3N4 nanosheets with a high concentration of up to 0.8 mg mL-1 due to the polarity and the appropriate surface energy of GVL. The exfoliation process can be easily extended to a 200 ml scale and should be extended further. The formed g-C3N4 nanosheets showed enhanced activity for the alcoholysis of epoxides and the cycloaddition of epoxides with CO2 owing to their higher specific surface areas and more exposed active centers than the bulk g-C3N4. This affords a green, facile and scalable method to form few-layer g-C3N4 nanosheets and further expand the application of g-C3N4 materials to the field of non-photocatalysis.

Metal (Al, Ti, Zr) triflate grafted mesoporous SBA-15 (AlTf/S, TiTf/S, ZrTf/S) samples were synthesized as inexpensive solid acid materials by a simple one-pot-two-step synthesis methodology. These materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, N2-sorption, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), in-situ pyridine FT-IR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. ZrTf/S was found to be a highly efficient and reusable solid acid catalyst for ring opening of epoxides with amines and alcohols and produced β-amino alcohols and β-alkoxy alcohols respectively under ambient reaction conditions. The ZrTf/S catalyst showed the highest activity, which was attributed to its high acidity compared with that of the Ti and Al containing samples.

Palladium supported on a strontium hydroxyl fluoride catalyst was synthesized by a one-pot fluorolytic sol–gel method. The prepared catalyst was characterized by various physicochemical techniques. The sol–gel method has led to the formation of a high surface area (57?m2g?1), mesoporous (pore diameter?=?13.0?nm) catalyst with uniform dispersion of Pd nanoparticles of size ～7?nm on the surface of strontium hydroxyl fluoride. The catalyst was used for epoxide alcoholysis, and 100% conversion was obtained with 96% selectivity for β-alkoxy alcohols under mild conditions. The catalyst could be recycled for up to three catalytic cycles without any appreciable decrease in conversion and selectivity, indicating the stability of the catalyst under the reaction conditions. Further, the mechanism of alcoholysis was proposed on the basis of the physicochemical characteristics of the catalyst and on the basis of the products formed during the catalytic reaction.
