Unsaturated fatty esters can be easily transformed into ketoesters through a two-step process. The highly efficient epoxidation is carried out with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) in α,α,α-trifluorotoluene (TFT) using a Ti-silica heterogeneous catalyst. The formed epoxide is easily rearranged by a heterogeneous Br?nsted acid, with Nafion-silica SAC13 as the most efficient one. Both reactions can be combined in a tandem process, with separation of the Ti-silica catalyst by filtration from the reaction medium and addition of the second acid catalyst to perform the second reaction. Each catalyst is separated individually and can be reused, with or without re-activation, under the same conditions to maximize the productivity.

Herein, the preparation of methyl oleate α-hydroxyketone from the corresponding 1,2-diol was investigated using both homogeneous and heterogeneous systems. Homogeneous conditions using a Pd(OAc)2/neocuproine complex were first developed using oxygen as a sole oxidant under mild conditions (MeOH, 50 °C). Under these conditions, the conversion of diol reached 95%, and α-hydroxyketone was obtained with 97% selectivity. The access to α-hydroxyketone has also been studied by dehydrogenation using a range of heterogeneous catalysts under solvent-free conditions at high temperatures (160-180 °C). Dehydrogenation using activated Ru/C under vacuum provided α-hydroxyketone with 93% conversion and 82% GC yield. The optimized conditions were applied to a range of oleochemical diols, including a vegetable oil derivative, to obtain the corresponding α-hydroxyketones with up to 74% isolated yields.

A series of amphiphilic 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate ionic liquids were synthesized. Acidic hydrogen sulfate ionic liquids with the alkyl chains C6-C14 are characterized by good surface properties. Their surface properties (adsorption and micellization parameters, degree of ionization of micelles, Krafft temperatures and thermodynamic parameters) were determined. Synthesized ionic liquids were applied as a co-catalyst in an oxirane ring opening reaction in epoxidized fatty acid methyl esters (FAME). Their co-catalytic activities were determined and discussed as a function of their structure and surface properties. It was found that the co-catalytic properties, both conversion and selectivity, of alkylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate ionic liquids noticeably depended on the alkyl chain lengths, and in consequence their properties.
