Producing renewable biofuels from biomass is a promising way to meet future energy demand. Here, we demonstrated a lignin to diesel route via dimerization of the lignin oil followed by hydrodeoxygenation. The lignin oil undergoes C?C bond dehydrogenative coupling over Au/CdS photocatalyst under visible light irradiation, co-generating diesel precursors and hydrogen. The Au nanoparticles loaded on CdS can effectively restrain the recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes, thus improving the efficiency of the dimerization reaction. About 2.4 mmol gcatal?1 h?1 dimers and 1.6 mmol gcatal?1 h?1 H2 were generated over Au/CdS, which is about 12 and 6.5 times over CdS, respectively. The diesel precursors are finally converted into C16–C18 cycloalkanes or aromatics via hydrodeoxygenation reaction using Pd/C or porous CoMoS catalyst, respectively. The conversion of pine sawdust to diesel was performed to demonstrate the feasibility of the lignin-to-diesel route.

Reagents of the type R4(PrO)4(μ-PrO)2W2 (3; R = Me, Et, Pr, Bu, sBu, iBu, Hex, Me3SiCH2, Ph) prepared in situ by the action of organolithium or Grignard compounds on (PrO)4(μ-PrO)2W2Cl4 (2), react with aromatic aldehydes or ketones and with the α,β-unsaturated ketone benzylidene acetone in a novel reaction, called the ARCD reaction, to give products 4 of the type RR'R''C-CRR'R'' with mostly good yields.In the case of benzylidene acetone and furfural besides the ARCD products the rearranged products 27 and 29 are formed.With the reagent Ph4(PrO)4(μ-PrO)2W2 (3b) ARCD reactions are also possible in moderate yields with aliphatic aldehydes and ketones.The more closely investigated reagent Me4(PrO)4(μ-PrO)2W2 (3a; decomposition at about -45 deg C) tolerates the aromatic bound functional groups Cl, F, OH, OMe, and NMe2 in the substrates, but not the NO2 and CO2Et substituents.It reacts with PhCOX (X = OEt, Cl, OCOPh) via acetophenone to give PhCMe2-CMe2Ph. - For the ARCD reactions a radical mechanism (Scheme 7) is postulated. - Key Words: Tungsten complexes/ Carbonyl dimerization

The Stevens rearrangement of acyl-stabilised ammonium ylides has been investigated with regard to stereoselectivity, intramolecularity and the formation of products in addition to the rearrangement product.A detailed study of the effects of reaction conditions upon the rearrangement of the ylide derived from the salt (13) has shown that the stereoselectivity (retention of the configuration of the chiral migrating group) and intramolecularity decrease as solvent viscosity decreases.The rearrangement of the salt (13) in water at 0 deg C is essentially intramolecular with virtually complete retention of the configuration of the migrating group.These results, together with the isolation of products that can be rationalised on the basis of random free-radical coupling, indicate that the rearrangement of acyl-stabilised ammonium ylides normally involves a radical pair mechanism.
