Dialkoxy- or diacyloxy-distannoxanes were transformed into unsymmetrical acyloxyalkoxydistannoxanes during a transesterification reaction where they were used as catalysts, while more active dichlorodistannoxanes were recovered unchanged.

Graphene oxide (GrO) prepared by the Hummers method was separated into three different fractions (GrO5000, GrO2000, and GrOres) on the basis of their dispersion stability in the water. Infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and elemental analyses revealed that GrO5000 possesses a high degree of oxygen functionalities including phenolic, carboxylic, and -OSO2H groups, compared with the other fractions. The GrO5000 was found to be a highly efficient and reusable solid catalyst for the esterification of various carboxylic acids with a variety of alcohols to furnish corresponding esters in high to excellent yields. The catalytic activity of the GrO5000 was attributed to the ability of highly polar GrO5000 scaffold to adsorb/attract reactants, where the acid functionalities of GrO5000 facilitated the esterification process efficiently. The chemical and structural features of GrO5000 were discussed to understand the improved catalytic activity compared with GrO2000 and conventional solid acid catalysts.

An efficient N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed oxidative esterification reaction of aldehydes with alkyl halides or alkyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate is reported. It was worth noting that (1) the configuration of alkyl halides or alkyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonates was inverted completely, and (2) the presence of oxygen was crucial for this transformation. The reaction proceeded smoothly under mild conditions and various esters were afforded in moderate to good yields. In addition, we have developed an efficient tandem oxidation/ esterification reaction of alcohols. This methodology provides a rare example of a reaction of the Breslow intermediate to sp3-carbon centered electrophiles. An efficient oxidative esterification reaction of aldehydes with alkyl halides or alkyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonates catalyzed by N-heterocyclic carbenes is reported. Oxygenwas crucial for the reaction, and the configuration of alkyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate was completely inverted. Copyright
Rapeseed lipase catalyzed synthesis of butyl butyrate for flavour and nutraceutical applications in organic media
Liaquat, Muhammad
experimental part, p. 6 - 13 (2012/06/18)
Butyl butyrate, a short chain ester with fine fruity pineapple odour, is a significant flavour compound. Recent investigations show that butyrate esters also have anticancer activity. Factors influencing the synthesis of butyl butyrate by organic phase biocatalysis were investigated. Maximum ester yield of 89% was obtained when 0.25 M butanol and butyric acid were reacted at 25 °C for 48 h in the presence of 250 mg rape seed lipase acetone powder in hexane. Addition of water did not affect synthesis, while a water activity of 0.45 was found optimum. Of 15 different alcohols evaluated, isoamyl and (Z)-3- hexen-1-ol were esterified most effectively with molar conversion yields of 92.2 and 80.2%. Short chain primary alcohols such as methanol and medium-long chain alcohols, such as heptanol and octanol were esterified more slowly. The results show that rape seed lipase is versatile catalyst for ester synthesis with temperature stability range 5-50 °C.
