We describe the utilization of four kinds of diol derivatives, representing structural similarity to the well-known and commercially available vinyl monomers such as acrylate, acrylamide, styrene, and N-substituted maleimide. The vinyl monomers are readily converted by dihydroxylation reaction to afford the vicinal diol. The synthesis of poly(urethane)s was performed by the reaction of the vicinal diol with two model diisocyanates, including methylene diphenyl isocyanate (MDI) and hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) in the presence of dibutyltin dilaurate to form a series of poly(urethane)s, and the effect of vicinal diol containing a side chain inherited from vinyl monomers on their thermal and mechanical properties was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, and tensile test.

Methyltrioxorhenium(VII) (MTO) readily forms 1:1 adducts with several N-(salicylidene)aniline derived Schiff bases. If the aromatic rings of the N-(salicylidene)aniline ligands display non-donating or electron withdrawing substituent groups, the resulting MTO adducts show good activities in olefin epoxidations. However, steric effects seem to play a major role, leading often to instable o- and m-Schiff base-MTO adducts, while p-substituted Schiff bases usually lead to more stable adducts. In catalysis, electron-withdrawing substituents on the aniline moiety lead to better catalysts than electron donating ones. The gap between good catalysts and instable or non-existing compounds, however, is small. The general tendency, however, that good donors on the Schiff base Iigands lead to shorter Re - O(Schiff base) bridges and lower catalytic activity, while the opposite is true with acceptor ligands on the Schiff bases, seems to be quite clear.

The preparation of three novel active and stable magnetic nanocatalysts for the selective liquid-phase oxidation of several olefins, has been reported. The heterogeneous systems are based on the coordination of cis-MoO2 moiety onto three different SCMNP@Si-(L1-L3) magnetically active supports, functionalized with silylated acylpyrazolonate ligands L1, L2 and L3. Nanocatalysts thoroughly characterized by ATR-IR spectroscopy, TGA and ICP-MS analyses, showed excellent catalytic performances in the oxidation of conjugated or unconjugated olefins either in organic or in aqueous solvents. The good magnetic properties of these catalytic systems allow their easy recyclability, from the reaction mixture, and reuse over five runs without significant decrease in the activity, either in organic or water solvent, demonstrating their versatility and robustness.

Compared to metal-organic complexes and transition-metal halides, group I metal halides are attractive catalysts for the crucial cycloaddition reaction of CO2to epoxides as they are ubiquitously available and inexpensive, have a low molecular weight, and are not based on (potentially) endangered metals, especially for the case of sodium and potassium. Nevertheless, given their low intrinsic catalytic efficiency, they require the assistance of additional catalytic moieties. In this work, we show that by exploiting the high nucleophilicity of opportunely designed aminopyridines, catalytic systems based on alkaline metals can be formed, which allow the cycloaddition of CO2to epoxides to proceed under atmospheric pressure at moderate temperatures. Importantly, the aminopyridine nucleophiles can be applied in their heterogenized form, leading to a recyclable catalytic system. An investigation of the reaction mechanism by density functional theory calculations shows that metal halide complexes and nucleophilic pyridines can work as a dual cooperative catalytic system where the use of aminopyridines leads to lower energy barriers for the opening of the epoxide ring, and halide-adducts are involved in the subsequent steps of CO2insertion and ring closure.

Surfactants with polyoxometalates (POMs) as polar head groups have shown fascinating self-assembly behaviors and various functional applications. However, self-assembly them into reverse micelles is still challenging owing to the large molecular size and intermolecular strong electrostatic repulsions of POM heads. In this work, a zwitterionic POM-based surfactant was synthesized by covalently grafting two cationic long alkyl tails onto the lacunary site of [PW11O39]7?. With decreased electrostatic repulsions and increased hydrophobic effect, the POM-based reverse micelles with an average diameter of 5 nm were obtained. Interestingly, when these reverse micelles were applied for catalyzing the oxidation of styrene, an unprecedented β?hydroxyl peroxide compound of 2?hydroxyl-2-phenylethan-1?tert-butylperoxide was produced in high selectivity of 95.2%. In comparison, the cetyltrimethylammonium electrostatically encapsulated POMs mainly generated the epoxides or 1,2-diols. A free radical mechanism was proposed for the oxidation reaction catalyzed by the zwitterionic POM surfactants.

An amphiphilic (salen)Co(III) complex is presented that accelerates the hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR) of epoxides almost 10 times faster than catalysts from commercially available sources. This was achieved by introducing hydrophobic chains that increase the rate of reaction in one of two ways – by enhancing cooperativity under homogeneous conditions, and increasing the interfacial area under biphasic reaction conditions. While numerous strategies have been employed to increase the efficiency of cooperative catalysts, the utilization of hydrophobic interactions is scarce. With the recent upsurge in green chemistry methods that conduct reactions ‘on water’ and at the oil-water interface, the introduction of hydrophobic interactions has potential to become a general strategy for enhancing the catalytic efficiency of cooperative catalytic systems.

Geminal diacetates have been used as sustainable acyl donors for enzymatic acylation of chiral and nonchiral alcohols. Especially, it was revealed that geminal diacetates showed higher reactivity than vinyl acetate for hydrolases that are sensitive to acetaldehyde. Under optimized conditions for enzymatic acylation, several synthetically relevant saturated and unsaturated acetates of various primary alcohols were obtained in very high yields up to 98% without E/Z isomerization of the double bond. Subsequently, the acyl donor was recreated from the resulting aldehyde and reused constantly in acylation. Therefore, the developed process is characterized by high atomic efficiency. Moreover, it was shown that acylation using geminal diacetates resulted in remarkable regioselectivity by discriminating among the primary and secondary hydroxyl groups in 1-phenyl-1,3-propanediol providing exclusively 3-acetoxy-1-phenyl-propan-1-ol in good yield. Further, enzymatic kinetic resolution (EKR) and chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) protocols were developed using geminal diacetate as an acylating agent, resulting in chiral acetates in high yields up to 94% with enantiomeric excesses exceeding 99%.

In order to overcome the disadvantages of excessive water and many byproducts in the conventional process of epoxide hydration into 1,2-diols, 2-carboxylated imidazolium salts were first adopted as efficient catalysts for one-step hydration of epoxides into 1,2-diols. By regulating the cation chain lengths, different steric structures of 2-carboxylated imidazolium salts with chain lengths from C1 to C4 were prepared. The salt with the shortest substituent chain (DMIC) exhibited better thermal stability and catalytic performance for hydration, achieving nearly 100% ethylene oxide (EO) conversion and 100% ethylene glycol (EG) selectivity at 120 °C, 0.5 h with just 5 times molar ratio of H2O to EO. Such a tendency is further confirmed and explained by both XPS analysis and DFT calculations. Compared with other salts with longer chains, DMIC has stronger interaction of CO2?anions and imidazolium cations, exhibiting a lower tendency to release CO2?and form HO-CO2?, which can nucleophilically attack and synergistically activate ring-opening of epoxides with imidazolium cations. The strong huge sterically dynamic structure ring-opening transition state slows down the side reaction, and both cations and anions stabilized the transition state imidazolium-EG-HO-CO2?, both of which could avoid excessive hydration into byproducts, explaining the high 1,2-diol yield. Based on this, the cation-anion synergistic mechanism is then proposed.

Hydrogen (H2) is widely used as a reductant for many hydrogenation reactions; however, it has not been recognized as a catalyst for the acid transformation of active sites on solid surface. Here, we report the H2-promoted hydration of alkenes (such as styrenes and cyclic alkenes) and epoxy alkanes over single-atom Co-dispersed nitrogen-doped carbon (Co-NC) via a transformation mechanism of acid-base sites. Specifically, the specific catalytic activity and selectivity of Co-NC are superior to those of classical solid acids (acidic zeolites and resins) per micromole of acid, whereas the hydration catalysis does not take place under a nitrogen atmosphere. Detailed investigations indicate that H2 can be heterolyzed on the Co-N bond to form Hδ-Co-N-Hδ+ and then be converted into OHδ-Co-N-Hδ+ accompanied by H2 generation via a H2O-mediated path, which significantly reduces the activation energy for hydration reactions. This work not only provides a novel catalytic method for hydration reactions but also removes the conceptual barriers between hydrogenation and acid catalysis.
