We report the use of mesoporous silicon diimide gel as a basic stationary phase in thin layer chromatography for the characterisation and purification of acid-sensitive compounds. The gel is prepared by a simple sol-gel process and exhibits a large specific surface area, almost monodisperse pores and basic properties due to free-hanging amine groups.

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.

To reveal effect of electronic or steric modification of phosphino-phenolate nickel complex for preparing optimized catalysts, we take elaborated studies on structure-performance relationship by finely modifying substituents on ortho-phenoxy position or phosphorus moiety of this catalyst. It reveals that these newly synthesized complexes are thermally robust, and exhibits very high activity (up to 107 g molNi?1 h?1) in ethylene polymerization even at 120 °C. Associated with stoichiometric experiments, experimental results prove that nickel complexes bearing electron-withdrawing substituents on ortho-phenoxy position or electron-donating substituents on phosphorus atom show higher activity than contrastive catalysts toward ethylene polymerization and ethylene–methyl acrylate (MA) copolymerization. Among these catalysts, 3 g bearing a strong electron-withdrawing substituent on ortho-phenoxy position exhibits the highest activity, and produces copolymers with the highest molecular weight and analogous MA incorporation. Various challenging polar vinyl monomers, like polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether acrylate, can be efficiently copolymerized with ethylene.

The gas-phase elimination kinetics of tetrahydropyranyl phenoxy ethers: 2-phenoxytetrahydro-2H-pyran, 2-(4-methoxyphenoxy)tetrahydro-2H-pyran, and 2-(4-tert-butylphenoxy)tetrahydro-2H-pyran were determined in a static system, with the vessels deactivated with allyl bromide, and in the presence of the free radical inhibitor toluene. The working temperature and pressure were 330 to 390°C and 25 to 89?Torr, respectively. The reactions yielded DHP and the corresponding 4-substituted phenol. The eliminations are homogeneous, unimolecular, and satisfy a first-order rate law. The Arrhenius equations for decompositions were found as follows: 2-phenoxytetrahydro-2H-pyran log k1 (s?1)?=?(14.18?±?0.21)???(211.6?±?0.4)?kJ?mol?1 (2.303 RT)?1 2-(4-methoxyphenoxy)tetrahydro-2H-pyran log k1 (s?1)?=?(14.11?±?0.18)???(203.6?±?0.3)?kJ?mol?1 (2.303 RT)?1 2-(4-tert-butylphenoxy)tetrahydro-2H-pyran log k1 (s?1)?=?(14.08?±?0.08)???(205.9?±?1.0)?kJ?mol?1 (2.303 RT)?1. The analysis of kinetic and thermodynamic parameters for thermal elimination of 2-(4-substituted-phenoxy)tetrahydro-2H-pyranes suggests that the reaction proceeds via 4-member cyclic transition state. The results obtained confirm a slight increase of rate constant with increasing electron donating ability groups in the phenoxy ring. The pyran hydrogen abstraction by the oxygen of the phenoxy group appears to be the determinant factor in the reaction rate.

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.

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.

We introduce bis-aryl croconamides as a new member in the family of dual hydrogen bonding anion receptors. In this study a series of croconamides are synthesised, and the selectivity for anion binding is investigated (Cl- > Br- > I- in CH2Cl2). The croconamides exhibit different structures in the crystal phase depending on the substituents on the aromatic rings, and furthermore, the crystal structure revealed the presence of tautomers. DFT calculations elucidated the complex structures formed upon addition of anion to the croconamides, confirming the order of association constants towards the halogen anions. The use of croconamides as organocatalysts in a proof-of-concept study is demonstrated in the formation of THP ethers. In addition to this, construction of a Hammet plot further elucidates the mechanism in action on formation of THP ethers.

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.

Titanium(IV) salophen trifluoromethanesulfonate, [TiIV(salophen)(OSO2CF3)2], as a catalyst enables selective tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols with 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran. Using this catalytic system, primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols, as well as phenols, were converted to their corresponding tetrahydropyranyl ethers in high yields and short reaction times at room temperature. Investigation of the chemoselectivity of this method showed discrimination between the activity of primary alcohols in the presence of secondary and tertiary alcohols and phenols. This heterogenized catalyst could be reused several times without loss of its catalytic activity. Copyright
