A novel catalyst with strong acid sites based on carbon/silica composite has been synthesized through one-pot hydrothermal carbonization of hydroxyethylsulfonic acid, glucose and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS). The novel solid acid showed an acidity of 2.1 mmol/g, much higher than that of traditional solid acids such as Nafion and Amberlyst-15 (0.8 mmol/g). The catalytic activity of the solid acid was investigated in the acetalization and dimerization of α-methylstyrene. The results showed that the novel solid acid was very efficient for both hydrophilic and hydrophobic acid-catalyzed reactions. Because of the high acidity and catalytic activity the novel solid acid based on carbon/silica composite is a promising catalyst for the processes in green chemistry.

The synthesis of a variety of bis(catecholato)germanes is reported. The Lewis acidity of the bis(catecholato)germanes was assessed using the experimental Gutmann-Beckett method and computational FIA and GEI methods. The oligomerization of alkenes using bis(catecholato)germanes demonstrates the use of these complexes in catalysis. The use of donor additives in the dimerization of a-methylstyrene resulted in selectivity control comparable to transition metal catalyst systems. This journal is
Aerobic Oxidation of Secondary Alcohols with Nitric Acid and Iron(III) Chloride as Catalysts in Fluorinated Alcohol

Fluorinated alcohols as solvents strongly influence and direct chemical reaction through donation of strong hydrogen bonds while being weak acceptors. We used 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) as the activating solvent for a nitric acid and FeCl3-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones. Reaction proceeded selectively with excellent yields with no reaction on the primary alcohol group. Oxidation of benzyl alcohols proceeds selectively to aldehydes with only HNO3 as the catalyst, while reaction on tertiary alcohols proceeds through dehydration and dimerization. A mechanistic study showed in situ formation of NOCl that converts alcohol into alkyl nitrite, which in the presence of Fe3+ ions and fluorinated alcohol decomposes into ketone. The study indicates that iron(III) acts also as the single-electron transfer catalyst in regeneration of NOCl reactive species.
