The development of porous composite materials is of great significance for their potentially improved performance over those of individual components and extensive applications in separation, energy storage, and heterogeneous catalysis. Now mesoporous metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with macroporous melamine foam (MF) have been integrated using a one-pot process, generating a series of MOF/MF composite materials with preserved crystallinity, hierarchical porosity, and increased stability over that of melamine foam. The MOF nanocrystals were threaded by the melamine foam networks, resembling a ball-and-stick model overall. The resulting MOF/MF composite materials were employed as an effective heterogeneous catalyst for the epoxidation of cholesteryl esters. Combining the advantages of interpenetrative mesoporous and macroporous structures, the MOF/melamine foam composite has higher dispersibility and more accessibility of catalytic sites, exhibiting excellent catalytic performance.

3β-Hydroxy-5β-cholestan-6-one was identified in the EtOAc extract of Ajuga hairy roots by micro-analysis using LC-MS/MS in the multiple reaction mode (MRM). Furthermore, administration of (2,2,4,4,7,7-2H6)- and (2,2,4,4,6,7,7-2H7)-cholesterols to the hairy roots followed by LC-MS/MS analysis of the EtOAc extract of the hairy roots indicated that cholesterol was converted to the 5β-ketone with hydrogen migration from the C-6 to the C-5 position. These findings, in conjunction with the previous observation that the ketone was efficiently converted to 20-hydroxyecdysone, strongly suggest that the 5β-ketone is an intermediate immediately formed after cholesterol during 20-hydroxyecdysone biosynthesis in Ajuga sp. In addition, the mechanism of the 5β-ketone formation from cholesterol is discussed.

Mukaiyama epoxidation of alkenes under oxygen catalyzed by rhodium acetate with isobutyraldehyde as the reducing agent is as or more effective than previously reported procedures. A variety of alkenes, including terpenes and cholesterol derivatives, were oxidized. And high regioselectivity for monoepoxidation was observed with neryl, geranyl, and linalyl acetates.

A robust heterogeneous Mn catalyst for selective epoxidation was prepared by the attachment of a Mn4 oxonuclear complex [Mn4O 2(CH3COO)7(bipy)2](ClO 4)·3H2O (1) on SiO2 and the successive stacking of SiO2-matrix overlayers around a supported Mn cluster. The structures of supported Mn catalysts were characterized by means of FT-IR spectroscopy, diffuse-reflectance UV/vis spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Mn K-edge X-ray absorption fine structure. A ligand exchange reaction between the CH3COO ligand of 1 and surface silanol group produced a SiO2-supported Mn cluster (2), whose coordination structure was similar to 1. Subsequent heating of 2 under vacuum yielded supported Mn clusters (3, 4) through the partial elimination of CH 3COO ligands. The surface-attached Mn clusters of 2, 3, and 4 were easily released to a reaction solution under epoxidation conditions (Mn leaching: approximately 50%), although they were active for epoxidation of trans-stilbene (the conversion of trans-stilbene, 99%, and the selectivity of trans-stilbene epoxid, 96%, for 6 h on 3). We found that the functionalization of the supported Mn cluster on 2 with surface SiO2-matrix overlayers altered the reactivity of the supported Mn cluster. Dimeric Mn species (5c) with reduced Mn oxidation state and coordination numbers was formed together with a reaction nanospace surrounded by the SiO2-matrix overlayers. By optimizing the stacking manner of the SiO2-matrix overlayers, the durability of the Mn catalyst was remarkably improved from leaching (the Mn leaching reached the minimum value of 0.01%), and active and stable epoxidation performances were successfully achieved in the heterogeneous phase (the conversion of trans-stilbene, 97%, and the selectivity of trans-stilbene epoxide, 91%, for 31 h on 5c).

We have prepared a novel Ru-mononer complex supported on a SiO2 surface by using a Rumonomer complex precursor with a p-cymene ligand, which was found to be highly active for the selective oxidation of aldehydes and the epoxidation of alkenes using O2. The structure of the supported Ru catalyst was characterized by means of FT-IR, solid-state NMR, diffuse-reflectance UV/vis, XPS, Ru K-edge EXAFS, and DFT calculations, which demonstrated the formation of isolatedly located, unsaturated Ru centers behind a p-cymene ligand of the Ru-complex precursor. The site-isolated Ru-monomer complex on SiO2 achieved tremendous TONs (turnover numbers) for the selective oxidation of aldehydes and alkenes; e.g. TONs of 38,800,000 for selective isobutyraldehyde (IBA) oxidation and 2,100,000 for trans-stilbene epoxidation at ambient temperature, which are among the highest TONs in metal-complex catalyzes to our knowledge. We also found that the IBA sole oxidation with an activation energy of 48 kJ mol-1 much more facile than the trans-stilbene epoxidation with an activation energy of 99 kJ mol -1 was completely suppressed by the coexistence of trans-stilbene. The switchover of the selective oxidation pathways from the IBA oxidation to the trans-stilbene epoxidation was explained in terms of energy profiles for the alternative selective oxidation pathways, resulting in the preferential coordination of trans-stilbene to the Ru-complex at the surface. This aspect gives an insight into the origin of the efficient catalysis for selective epoxidation of alkenes with IBA/O2.

[RuIV(2,6-Cl2tpp)Cl2], prepared in 90% yield from the reaction of [RuVI(2,6-Cl2tpp)O2] with Me3SiCl and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography, is markedly superior to [RuIv(tmp)Cl2], [RuIV(ttp)Cl2], and [RuII(por)(CO)] (por = 2,6-Cl2tpp, F20-tpp, F28-tpp) as a catalyst for alkene epoxidation with 2,6-Cl2pyNO (2,6Cl2tpp = meso-tetrakis(2,6-dichlorophenyl)porphyrinato dianion; tmp = meso-tetramesitylporphyrinato dianion; ttp = meso-tetrakis(p-tolyl)porphyrinato dianion; F20-tpp = meso-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrinato dianion; F28-tpp = 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octafluoro-5,10,15,20- tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)-porphyrinato dianion). The "[Ru IV(2,6-Cl2tpp)Cl2] + 2,6-Cl 2pyNO" protocol oxidized, under acid-free conditions, a wide variety of hydrocarbons including 1) cycloalkenes, conjugated enynes, electron-deficient alkenes (to afford epoxides), 2) arenes (to afford quinones), and 3) Δ5-unsaturated steroids, Δ4-3- ketosteroids, and estratetraene derivatives (to afford epoxide/ketone derivatives of steroids) in up to 99% product yield within several hours with up to 100% substrate conversion and excellent regio- or diastereoselectivity. Catalyst [RuIv(2,6-Cl2tpp)Cl2] is remarkably active and robust toward the above oxidation reactions, and turnover numbers of up to 6.4 × 103, 2.0 × 104, and 1.6 × 104 were obtained for the oxidation of α,β-unsaturated ketones, arenes, and Δ5-unsaturated steroids, respectively.

Dinitrogen oxide was employed as a clean oxidant for various oxidations in the presence of a catalytic amount of dioxoruthenium tetramesitylporphyrin complex (Ru(tmp)(O)2). A variety of olefins, secondary alcohols, and benzyl alcohols were smoothly oxidized to the corresponding epoxides, ketones, and aldehydes in high yields. In the oxidation of 9,10-dihydroanthracene derivatives, the competitive reactions affording anthraquinones and anthracenes could be regulated by the reaction conditions. At a high temperature (200°C), anthraquinones were selectively produced, while the anthracenes were selectively produced by the addition of sulfuric acid.

Attachment of Frechet-type poly(benzyl ether) dendrons [G-n] to carbonylruthenium(II) meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (5) using covalent etheric bonds forms a series of dendritic ruthenium(II) porphyrins 5-[G-n](m) (m=4, n=1, 2; m=8, n=0-2). The attachment was realized by treating the carbonylruthenium(II) complex of 5,10,15,20- tetrakis(4'-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin or 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(3',5'-dihydroxyphenyl)porphyrin with [G-n]OSO(2)Me in refluxing dry acetone in the presence of potassium carbonate and [18]crown-6. Complexes 5-[G-n](m) were characterized by UV/Vis, IR, and NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. All of the dendritic ruthenium porphyrins are highly selective catalysts for epoxidation of alkenes with 2,6-dichloropyridine N-oxide (Cl(2)pyNO). The chemo- or diastereoselectivity increases with the generation number of the dendron and the number of dendrons attached to 5, and complex 5-[G-2](8) exhibits remarkable selectivity or turnover number in catalyzing the Cl(2)pyNO epoxidation of a variety of alkene substrates including styrene, trans-/cis-stilbene, 2,2-dimethylchromene, cyclooctene, and unsaturated steroids such as cholesteryl esters and estratetraene derivative. The cyclopropanation of styrene and its para-substituted derivatives with ethyl diazoacetate catalyzed by 5-[G-2](8) is highly trans selective.
