Bio-based bisfuran: Synthesis, crystal structure, and low molecular weight amorphous polyester

Discovery of renewable monomer feedstocks for fabrication of polymeric demand is critical in achieving sustainable materials. In the present work we have synthesized bisfuran diol (BFD) monomer from furfural, over four steps. BFD was examined via X-ray crystallography to understand the molecular arrangement in space, hydrogen bonding, and packing of the molecules. These data were further used to compare BFD with structurally related bisphenol A (BPA), and its known derivatives to predict the potential estrogenic or anti-estrogenic activities in BFD. Further, BFD was reacted with succinic acid to generate polyester material, bisfuran polyester (BFPE-1). MALDI characterization of BFPE-1 indicates low molecular weight polyester and thermal analysis reveals amorphous nature of the material.

PhIO-Mediated oxidative dethioacetalization/dethioketalization under water-free conditions

Treatment of thioacetals and thioketals with iodosobenzene in anhydrous DCM conveniently afforded the corresponding carbonyl compounds in high yields under water-free conditions. The mechanistic studies indicate that this dethioacetalization/dethioketalization process does not need water and the oxygen of the carbonyl products comes from the hypervalent iodine reagent.

Indium-Catalyzed Reductive Dithioacetalization of Carboxylic Acids with Dithiols: Scope, Limitations, and Application to Oxidative Desulfurization

In this study an InI3-TMDS (1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane) reducing system effectively catalyzed the reductive dithioacetalization of a variety of aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids with 1,2-ethanedithiol or 1,3-propanedithiol leading to the one-pot preparation of either 1,3-dithiolane derivatives or a 1,3-dithiane derivative. Also, the intact indium catalyst continuously catalyzed the subsequent oxidative desulfurization of an in situ formed 1,3-dithiolane derivative, which led to the preparation of the corresponding aldehydes.

One-pot two-step conversion of aromatic carboxylic acids and esters to aromatic aldehydes via indium-catalyzed reductive thioacetalization and desulfurization

Described herein is that a new approach to a one-pot two-step conversion of aromatic carboxylic acids/esters to aromatic aldehydes, in which indium(III) iodide effectively catalyzes both the first reductive thioacetalization of carboxylic acids and a subsequent desulfurization of the in-situ formed thioacetal intermediates leading to aldehydes.

Amorphous polyester from bio-based bis-furan assembly

Polymers, including Polyesters and Polycarbonates comprising residue of bis-furan diol, which is produced from renewable furfural feedstock and methods of making and using of those polyesters and polycarbonates are described. The method includes reacting a bis-furan diol with a dicarboxylic acid in the presence of a carbodiimide to produce the bis-furan containing polymers. In certain embodiments, the dicarboxylic acid is succinic acid; the bis-furan diol is the 5,5′-(propane-2,2-diyl)bis(furan-2,5-diyl) dimethanol and the carbodiimide is of N,N-diisopropylcarbodiimide.

An efficient and chemoselective method for preparation of acetals and dithioacetals of aldehydes and their deprotection under catalysis of InF 3 is described.

An efficient method for the transthioacetalization of acylals and acetals under mild conditions

A rapid and efficient method for the transthioacetalization of acylals (1,1-diacetates) and acyclic and cyclic acetals is described. The reaction was carried out using 1-benzyl-4-aza-1-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane tribromide (1 mol%). The yield of the transthioacetalization was high and reaction conditions involve the use of acetonitrile as the solvent at room temperature; isolation is simple and the products are nearly pure.
