Novel core-shell carbon coated-magnetic (Fe3O4@Cg) nanoparticles supported MnO2 nanosheets (with α- and β-type structure) (Fe3O4@Cg/MnO2) are synthesized through a self-sacrificing templet method. The new hybrid material was fully characterized with Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), N2 adsorption/desorption analysis, and transmission electron microscopy; XRD and SEM results affirmed that α- and β-MnO2 nanosheets polymorphs onto the Fe3O4@Cg. The catalytic activity of the as-prepared nanostructured catalyst Fe3O4@Cg/MnO2 has been evaluated in O2 activation for the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde with high conversion; it stability being confirmed by the recycling of the nanostructured catalyst with no obvious loss even after six repeated runs.

A practical method is disclosed for the reduction of activated primary and secondary amides into aldehydes using diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL-H) in toluene. A wide range of aryl and alkyl N-Boc, N,N-diBoc and N-tosyl amides were converted into the corresponding aldehydes in good to excellent yields. Reduction susceptible functional groups such as nitro, cyano, alkene and alkyne groups were found to be stable. Broad substrate scope, functional group compatibility and quick conversions are the salient features of this methodology.

The efficient SBA-15 supported silver catalysts(Ag/SBA-15) were prepared and characterized by ICP-OES, XRD, TEM, SEM, XPS and N2 adsorption–desorption techniques. The catalysts exhibited an excellent catalytic activity for the aerobic oxidation of toluene to benzaldehyde under solvent-free conditions. Conversion of toluene and selectivity of benzaldehyde were 50% and 89% respectively over catalyst with 9.1 wt% Ag loading (10Ag/SBA-15). A wide range of substrates were tolerated under the selected reaction conditions. The kinetic study shows that the oxidation of toluene over 10Ag/SBA-15 is pseudo-first-order reaction and the activation energy Ea is 45.1?kJ/mol. A plausible mechanism involving oxygen free radicals was proposed for the aerobic oxidation reaction. Compared with the traditional method, the newly designed heterogeneous catalytic system shows better economic applicability, environmental friendliness and broader application prospects.

Catalytic epoxidation of styrene with molecular oxygen is regarded as an eco-friendly alternative to producing industrially important chemical of styrene oxide (STO). Recent efforts have been focused on developing highly active and stable heterogeneous catalysts with high STO selectivity for the aerobic epoxidation of styrene. Herein, a series of transition metal monosubstituted heteropolyacid compounds (TM-HPAs), such as Fe, Co, Ni or Cu-monosubstituted HPA, were encapsulated in UiO-66 frameworks (denoted as TM-HPA@UiO-66) by direct solvothermal method, and their catalytic properties were investigated for the aerobic epoxidation of styrene with aldehydes as co-reductants. Among them, Co-HPA@UiO-66 showed relatively high catalytic activity, stability and epoxidation selectivity at very mild conditions (313 K, ambient pressure), that can achieve 82 % selectivity to STO under a styrene conversion of 96 % with air as oxidant and pivalaldehyde (PIA) as co-reductant. In addition, the hybrid composite catalyst can also efficiently catalyze the aerobic epoxidation of a variety of styrene derivatives. The monosubstituted Co atoms in Co-HPA@UiO-66 are the main active sites for the aerobic epoxidation of styrene with O2/PIA, which can efficiently converting styrene to the corresponding epoxide through the activation of the in-situ generated acylperoxy radical intermediate.

C70 fullerene catalyzed photoinduced oxidation of benzylic amines at ambient conditions has been explored here. The developed strategy's main feature includes the additive/oxidant-free conversion of benzylic amine to corresponding imine and aldehydes. The reaction manifests broad substrate scope with excellent function group leniency and is applicable up to the gram scale. Further, symmetrical secondary amines can also be synthesized from benzylic amine in a one-pot two-step process. Various experiments and density functional theory studies revealed that the current reaction involves the generation of reactive oxygen species, single electron transfer reaction, and benzyl radical formation as key steps under photocatalytic conditions.

Biomimetic oxidation of primary amines to carboxylic acids has been developed where the copper-containing amine oxidase (CuAO)-like o-NQ-catalyzed aerobic oxidation was combined with the aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH)-like TBHP-mediated imine oxidation protocol. Notably, the current tandem oxidation strategy provides a new mechanistic insight into the imine intermediate and the seemingly simple TBHP-mediated oxidation pathways of imines. The developed metal-free amine oxidation protocol allows the use of molecular oxygen and TBHP, safe forms of oxidant that may appeal to the industrial application.

Selective cleavage of C-C linkages is the key and a challenge for lignin degradation to harvest value-added aromatic compounds. To this end, electrocatalytic oxidation presents a promising technique by virtue of mild reaction conditions and strong sustainability. However, the existing electrocatalysts (traditional bulk metal and metal oxides) for C-C bond oxidative cleavage suffer from poor selectivity and low product yields. We show for the first time that atomically dispersed Pt-N3C1sites planted on nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (Pt1/N-CNTs), constructed via a stepwise polymerization-carbonization-electrostatic adsorption strategy, are highly active and selective toward Cα-Cβbond cleavage in β-O-4 model compounds under ambient conditions. Pt1/N-CNTs exhibits 99% substrate conversion with 81% yield of benzaldehyde, which is exceptional and unprecedented compared with previously reported electrocatalysts. Moreover, Pt1/N-CNTs using only 0.41 wt % Pt achieved a much higher benzaldehyde yield than those of the state-of-the-art bulk Pt electrode (100 wt % Pt) and commercial Pt/C catalyst (20 wt % Pt). Systematic experimental investigation together with density functional theory (DFT) calculation suggests that the superior performance of Pt1/N-CNTs arises from the atomically dispersed Pt-N3C1sites facilitating the formation of a key Cβradical intermediate, further inducing a radical/radical cross-coupling path to break the Cα-Cβbond. This work opens up opportunities in lignin valorization via a green and sustainable electrochemical route with ultralow noble metal usage.
