Robust acidic pseudo-ionic liquid catalyst with self-separation ability for esterification and acetalization

The novel acidic pseudo-ionic liquid catalyst with self-separation ability has been synthesized through the quaternization of triphenylphosphine and the acidification with silicotungstic acid. The pseudo-IL showed high activities for the esterification with average conversions over 90%. The pseudo-IL showed even higher activities for acetalization than traditional sulfuric acid. The homogeneous catalytic process benefited the mass transfer efficiency. The pseudo-IL separated from the reaction mixture automatically after reactions, which was superior to other IL catalysts. The high catalytic activities, easy reusability and high stability were the key properties of the novel catalyst, which hold great potential for green chemical processes.

Compared with the preparation method of other catalysts, the method has the advantages of high reaction selectivity, simple separation of the catalyst and the product, the catalyst enables cycle usage without any treatment, the operation of whole preparation process is simple, the economic benefit is high, and the method is convenient for industrial large scale production.

PRODUCTION OF CYCLIC ACETALS BY REACTIVE DISTILLATION

Cyclic acetals can be produced in a reactive distillation apparatus by combining a polyhydroxyl compound and an aldehyde. High concentrations of cyclic acetals are removed as liquid products from the column while water is removed as an overhead vapor stream.

Synthesis of a novel multi-SO3H functionalized ionic liquid and its catalytic activities

A novel multi-SO3H functionalized ionic liquid is synthesized and a detailed account of its cata- lytic activities in acetalization and acetylation is given. The results showed that the ionic liquid is very efficient in the conventional acid-catalyzed reactions with good to excellent yields within a short reaction time. Oper- ational simplicity, small amounts required, low cost of the catalyst, high yields, scalability and reusability are the key features of this methodology, which indicates the high potentialities of the novel ionic liquid to be used in environmentally friendly processes.

Highly efficient and chemoselective acetalization of carbonyl compounds catalyzed by new and reusab e zirconyl triflate, zr0(0tf)2

Various types of aromatic aldehydes were efficiently converted to their corresponding 1,3-dioxanes and 1,3-dioxolane with 1,3-propanediol and ethylene glycol, respectively, in the presence of catalytic amount of ZrO(OTf) 2 in acetonitrile at room temperature. The catalyst can be reused several times without loss of its catalytic activity. Very short reaction times, selective acetalization of aromatic aldehydes in the presence of aliphatic aldehydes and ketones, very mild reaction conditions, reusability of the catalyst, and easy workup are noteworthy advantages of this method.

A convenient and highly efficient method for the protection of aldehydes using very low loading hydrous ruthenium(III) trichloride as catalyst

A convenient method for the chemoselective protections of both aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes has been developed. Ruthenium(III) trichloride (0.1 mol %) has found to be an highly efficient catalyst in the acetalizations of aldehydes with various simple alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, or diols such as 1,2-ethylanediol and 1,3-propanediol under mild reaction conditions.

Efficient and chemoselective conversion of carbonyl compounds to 1,3-dioxanes catalyzed with N-bromosuccinimide under almost neutral reaction conditions

(formula presented) Various types of carbonyl compounds were converted to the corresponding 1,3-dioxanes in the presence of ethyl orthoformate, 1,3-propanediol, and a catalytic amount of NBS via an in situ acetal exchange process. In contrast to conventional acid-catalyzed acetalization reactions, acid-sensitive substrates such as THP ethers and TBDMS ethers remain intact under described reaction conditions.

Acetals and Ethers. 11. Solubility of Alkyl-Substituted 1,3-Dioxolanes and 1,3-Dioxanes in Water

2-Alkyl-1,3-dioxolanes, 2-alkyl-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolanes, and 2-alkyl-1,3-dioxanes (alkyl: n-C3H7, ...,n-C6H13) were synthesized and their solubilities in E10-4 M aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution at 293.2 K determined.The standard free energies for transfer from aqueous solution to pure liquid phase, ΔGto, were calculated from the solubility data and the contributions of given fragments of molecules to the free energy estimated.The fve-membered 1,3-dioxolane and six-membered 1,3-dioxane rings given fragments of molecules to the free energy contribution ΔGto, related to the cyclic fragments of the molecules, are +2.84 +/- 0.20 and +2.26 +/- 0.36 kJ mol-1, respectively.Their hydrophilicity is, however, much weaker than hat of the hydroxy group in normal alcohols.The 1,3-dioxolane ring bearing a methyl group at the C-4 atom has a markedly weaker hydrophilic character.
