Silica-embedded tert-butyldimethylsilyltrifluoromethanesulfonate catalysts were synthesized by a sol-gel method in acidified CCl4, using hexadecyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide as a surfactant. The catalysts were characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms at 77 K; TG-DTA; 1H, 13C, and 29Si solid state MAS/NMR; XRD; XPS; Raman spectroscopy; and FTIR after adsorption of NH3. The characterization data indicated mesoporous solids in which most of the silyl-triflate derivative keeps its integrity. The catalytic tests performed with the methyl ester of 1-cyclopentenylacetic acid in various solvents showed that the reaction selectively leads to 3-methylbenzaldehyde and is sensitive to the solvent accepting ability.
The decomposition of methyl hemiacetals of benzaldehyde in aqueous solution: A study of the effect of aromatic substitution

The acid-base catalysed decomposition of hydrates and hemiacetals of carbonyl compounds are classical examples of reactions where (slow) proton transfer is coupled with heavy atom reorganization, i.e., C - O bond breaking and solvent reorganization. We have studied the influence of m- and p-substitution in the carbonyl electrophile on the kinetics of the acid and base catalysis of the decomposition of methyl hemiacetals of benzaldehyde. The experimental data are well described by three-dimensional More O'Ferrall - Jencks energy contour diagrams according to principles developed by Jencks (the BEMA HAPOTHLE). Thus, for acid catalysis, a Cordes cross-interaction coefficient pxy′ = ?ρ/?pKa = 0.15 indicates the coupled nature of the rate-limiting step in a class e mechanism, similar to conclusions reached from systematic substitution in the nucleophile. Our more extensive set of data for base catalysis permits a more rigorous analysis according to the BEMA HAPOTHLE. The data are consistent with a class n mechanism as also suggested earlier on the basis of substitution in the nucleophile. A slight upward curvature observed in the Hammett plots for the various catalysts is described by the direct correlation parameter py = ?ρ/?σ = -0.11. This second derivative demonstrates the concerted nature of the C - O bond cleavage and O-H formation in the transition state, which changes with changing substituent. A class n mechanism for base catalysis is also supported by the observation of a Cordes cross-interaction parameter pxy = ?ρ/?pKa = -?β/?σ = 0.03, which describes the experimentally observed decrease in Hammett ρ with increasing pKa of the catalyst. This change may be rationalized by the movement of a saddle point on a diagonal reaction coordinate in the energy contour diagram, as a resultant of shifts parallel and perpendicular to the coordinate, when the energy along one side of the diagram is changed. It is concluded that observed rate changes as a result of substitution in the electrophile are consistent with and present further confirmation of earlier suggested mechanisms of hemiacetal decomposition reactions.

, p. 98 - 105 (2015)
Nano Ag/ZnO catalysts were prepared by varying load of Ag on ZnO supports using a new and very simple method. The structure of nano Ag/ZnO has been confirmed by various techniques. The Ag/ZnO with 7.4 × 10-5 mol% of Ag has pore size distribution about 2.74 nm and this nano Ag/ZnO is found to be the best catalyst for oxidation of primary and secondary benzyl alcohols into corresponding aldehydes and ketones in oxidant-free at the atmospheric pressure. The influence of various parameters such as: solvent, base, temperature, time of reaction, etc. has been systematically studied on nano Ag/ZnO catalyst.

Gold-catalyzed reactions of cycloheptatrienes with nitrosoarenes yield nitrone derivatives efficiently. This reaction sequence enables us to develop gold-catalyzed aerobic oxidations of cycloheptatrienes to afford benzaldehyde derivatives using CuCl and nitrosoarenes as co-catalysts (10-30 mol %). Our density functional theory calculations support a novel nitroso-activated rearrangement, tropylium → benzylidene. With the same nitrosoarenes, we developed their gold-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 1]-annulations between nitrosobenzene and two enol ethers to yield 5-alkoxyisoxazolidines using 1,4-cyclohexadienes as hydrogen donors.

Considering the outstanding characteristics of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and magnetic nanoparticles, herein we report a facile approach for the synthesis of a magnetic zeolitic-imidazolate-framework-supported palladium(ii) catalyst. In brief, zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) was successfully incorporated onto the surface of titania-coated magnetic nanoparticles using ethane-1,2-diamine as a linker, and then Pd(ii) was immobilized onto this. The resulting Pd@ZIF-67-Fe3O4-TiO2 catalyst possesses a high surface area (205 m2 g-1), a large pore volume (0.10 cm3 g-1), good magnetic responsivity (10.71 emu g-1), and high stability. A comparative analysis of Pd@ZIF-67-Fe3O4-TiO2 and Pd@Fe3O4-TiO2 catalysts for the oxidation, reduction, and oxidative deprotection of oximes was done to investigate the effects of ZIF-67 on the catalytic performance of Pd species. Substantial differences in activity and stability were observed in the presence of ZIF-67, suggesting that ZIF-67 plays an important role in enhancing the activity of Pd(ii). This superior catalytic activity and stability arises due to a synergistic effect between well-dispersed palladium species and highly porous ZIF-67, which was confirmed via XPS analysis. Moreover, the catalyst retains its structure, chemical environment, and good magnetic response even after five catalytic runs, as confirmed via FTIR, XRD, XPS, and VSM studies of reused catalyst samples.

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.

, p. 271 - 273 (2021/05/04)
Nickel-catalyzed reduction of (het)arenecarboxylic acids with hydrosilanes in the presence of dimethyl dicarbonate as the activator affords the corresponding aldehydes. The role of the activator is the conversion of the acids into their anhydrides undergoing C–O cleavage. The good yields were achieved in case of substrates bearing electron-donating and electron-neutral groups.

The properties of high stability, periodic porosity, and tunable nature of ordered mesoporous polymers make these materials ideal catalytic nanoreactors. However, their application in organocatalysis has been rarely explored. We report herein for the first time the incorporation of a versatile organocatalyst, 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO), into the pores of an FDU-type mesoporous polymer via a pore surface engineering strategy. The resulting FDU-15-TEMPO possesses a highly ordered mesoporous organic framework and enhanced stability, and shows excellent catalytic activity in the selective oxidation of alcohols and aerobic oxidative synthesis of 2-substituted benzoxazoles, benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles. Moreover, the catalyst can be easily recovered and reused for up to 7 consecutive cycles.

Herein, we report a new 3D porous Co(ii)-based metal-organic framework catalyst (Me2NH2)2[Co3(L)2(H2O)2]·2DMF (MOF I), which has been successfully prepared by using Co(ii) ions and rigid V-shaped 3,5-di(2,4-dicarboxylphenyl)pyridine (H4L) via the solvothermal reaction. Structural analysis reveals that I displays a porous structure with the pore size of 16.2 × 7.2 ?2 based on the trinuclear [Co3(COO)4(H2O)2N2] secondary building units (SBUs). Gas sorption experiments on the guest free sample I′ reveals a high capacity and selectivity to CO2 over CH4. And further, the catalytic explorations of the I′-catalyzed system (I′: 3 mol%; proline: 40 mol%; CH3CN: 2 mL) reveal that benzyl alcohols with different structures can be efficiently transformed into benzyl alcohols without by-products under mild conditions.
