- Supported Rb- or Cs-containing HPA catalysts for the selective oxidation of isobutane
-
Silica-supported catalysts based on Keggin-type heteropolyacids (HPAs) containing rubidium or cesium as counter cations have been prepared by the impregnation method and evaluated in the selective oxidation of isobutane to methacrolein and methacrylic acid. The catalysts were characterized by various techniques such as XRD, N2 physisorption, TGA, Raman spectroscopy, H2-TPR, and NH3-TPD in order to study their thermal stability, structural, and textural properties, acidity and reducibility. It was evidenced that the reducibility of the Keggin type HPAs was improved by supporting the active phase on SiO2. A loading of 40 wt% was the optimum for the selective oxidation of isobutane (IBAN) to methacrylic acid (MAA). The selectivities to MAA and methacrolein (MAC) at given conversion were increased when Cs+ was used as counter cation compared to Rb+. The same trend was observed for mono- and di-vanado-substituted phosphomolybdic acid, whereby the performance followed the order: CsV1/SiO2 > RbV1/SiO2 > CsV2/SiO2 > RbV2/SiO2. The density of acid sites was correlated to the catalytic activity, which underlines the importance of the acid sites for alkane activation.

- Catalytic synthesis of methacrolein: Via the condensation of formaldehyde and propionaldehyde with l-proline
-
Methacrolein (MAL) is an important chemical for the manufacture of methyl methacrylate and a key monomer in many polymerization reactions. In this study, l-proline was investigated as the catalyst for the aldol condensation of formaldehyde and propionaldehyde to produce MAL. The catalytic activity of the reaction system was closely related to the competition between the main reaction synthesizing MAL and the side reaction producing 2-methyl-2-pentenal, which could be modified by adjusting the operating parameters. The influences of several operating conditions, including temperature, reaction time and water content, on the catalytic performance of the system were systematically studied via a series of single-factor experiments, and the optimized reaction conditions were obtained. The mechanistic investigation via ESI-MS indicated that the reaction pathway followed the Mannich route. Experimental and theoretical kinetic analyses of the l-proline-catalyzed aldol condensation reaction were performed, and the reaction orders of the reactants were obtained by regression. The results showed that l-proline was an efficient catalyst for the production of MAL via aldol condensation under mild conditions.

Starting from diverse alkene-tethered aryl iodides and O-benzoyl-hydroxylamines, the enantioselective reductive cross-electrophilic 1,2-carboamination of unactivated alkenes was achieved using a chiral pyrox/nickel complex as the catalyst. This mild, modular, and practical protocol provides rapid access to a variety of β-chiral amines with an enantioenriched aryl-substituted quaternary carbon center in good yields and with excellent enantioselectivities.

- Catalyst-controlled regioselective carbonylation of isobutylene oxide to pivalolactone
-
Poly(pivalolactone) (PPVL) is a crystalline polyester with attractive physical and mechanical properties; however, prohibitively expensive syntheses of pivalolactone have thwarted efforts to produce PPVL on an industrial scale. Therefore, we developed a class of highly regioselective sandwich-type catalysts for the carbonylation of isobutylene oxide. These sterically encumbered complexes install carbon monoxide at the substituted epoxide carbon, generating a high level of contrasteric selectivity (up to >99:1). Further catalyst development improved catalyst solubility and reproducibility while maintaining high regioselectivity. In addition, a dibasic ester solvent extended catalyst lifetimes and suppressed side product formation. This contrasteric carbonylation of isobutylene oxide offers a route to sought-after pivalolactone and, therefore, PPVL.

- Tailoring Interfacial Lewis Acid-Basic Pair on ZnO/4Mg1ZrOx Allows Dehydrogenative α-Methylenation of Alcohols with Methanol to Allylic Alcohols
-
Allylic alcohols are the essential building blocks widely used in diverse streams of organic inventions for pharmaceuticals, fragrances, agrochemicals and polymers. Currently, allylic alcohols are industrially produced from petroleum-based feedstocks via atom uneconomic processes. More sustainable synthesis route for allylic alcohols is limited. Herein, a methodology for the direct and highly selective production of allylic alcohols has been accomplished by controlled dehydrogenative α-methylenation of alcohols with methanol. This transformation is enabled by interfacial Lewis acid-basic pair on tailor-made ZnO/4Mg1ZrOx mixed oxide. High selectivity (83~92%) of allylic alcohols is the consequence of alcohols acceptorless dehydrogenation to liberation of H2 and Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley type hydrogen transfer onto C = O bonds of unsaturated aldehydes. Furthermore, the prepared ZnO/4Mg1ZrOx mixed oxide shows good stability after 200 h time on stream test. These observations could additionally allow us to design multifunctional solid acid-basic catalysts for the transformations of renewable oxygenates into value-added chemicals.

- A study of the oxidehydration of 1,2-propanediol to propanoic acid with bifunctional catalysts
-
The gas-phase oxidehydration (ODH) of 1,2-propanediol to propionic acid has been studied as an intermediate step in the multi-step transformation of bio-sourced glycerol into methylmethacrylate. The reaction involves the dehydration of 1,2-propanediol into propionaldehyde, which occurs in the presence of acid active sites, and a second step of oxidation of the aldehyde to the carboxylic acid. The two reactions were carried out using a cascade strategy and multifunctional catalysts, made of W-Nb-O, W-V-O and W-Mo-V-O hexagonal tungsten bronzes, the same systems which are also active and selective in the ODH of glycerol into acrylic acid. Despite the similarities of reactions involved, the ODH of 1,2-propanediol turned out to be less selective than glycerol ODH, with best yield to propanoic acid no higher than 13percent, mainly because of the parallel reaction of oxidative cleavage, occurring on the reactant itself, which led to the formation of C1-C2 compounds.

- Catalytic Reactions of Homo- and Cross-Condensation of Ethanal and Propanal
-
Abstract: Processes of catalytic homocondensation of propanal and its cross-condensation with ethanal and methanal in the presence of aniline and amino acids have been studied. The dependence of the conversion of the reactants and selectivity of the homo/heterocondensation process on the catalyst nature and temperature has been revealed. It has been shown that the maximum acrolein selectivity is reached in the case of using benzoyl-substituted derivatives in water, with the proportion of the products of further condensation decreasing. The selectivity for the ethanal homocondensation product 2-butenal decreases simultaneously as a result of the formation of linear and branched oligomers of successive condensation.

- EFFICIENT SYNTHESIS OF METHACROELIN AND OTHER ALPHA, BETA-UNSATURATED ALDEHYDES OVER A REGENERABLE ANATASE TITANIA CATALYST
-
A commercially available anatase titania catalyst is shown to be catalytically active towards the formation of methacrolein from formaldehyde and propionaldehyde with conversions and selectivities close to 90%. This titania catalyst is readily available, non-toxic, and can be used with formaldehyde and a variety of other aldehyde compounds to make α,β-unsaturated aldehyde compounds. This process benefits from low raw material costs and is economically advantaged due to the elimination of catalyst separation. An additional advantage of this method involves the ability of the catalyst to be fully regenerated after a calcination step at 450 °C in air. This process shows promising stability and selectivity during lifetime studies, particularly when performed in the presence of a hydrogen carrier gas.

- Oxidative Dehydrogenation of 1-Butene to 1,3-Butadiene over a Multicomponent Bismuth Molybdate Catalyst: Influence of C3–C4 Hydrocarbons
-
Abstract: The influence of light hydrocarbons, such as n-butane, isobutane, propylene, cis- and trans-2-butenes, and isobutene on the oxidative dehydrogenation of 1-butene to 1,3-butadiene over BiMoKNiCoFePOx/SiO2catalyst has been studied using a gas flow reactor. The inhibition effect of the listed hydrocarbons on the target reaction increased in the order of n-butane ~ isobutane propylene 2-butenes isobutene. In addition, in contrast to 1-butene, isobutene has shown significant contribution to coke formation. It was suggested, that the coke formation and therefore the rate of the catalyst regeneration exercise a significant influence on the efficiency of 1-butene transformation into 1,3-butadiene in the concurrent presence of other hydrocarbons.

- Partial oxidation of 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol to methacrylic acid: experimental and neural network modeling
-
Methacrylic acid (MAA) is a specialty intermediate to produce methyl methacrylate (MMA), which is a monomer for poly methyl methacrylate. Current processes to MMA and MAA rely on expensive feedstocks and multi-step processes. Here we investigate the gas-phase oxidation of 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol (2MPDO) to MAA over heteropolycompounds as effective catalysts, finding that the maximum selectivity to MAA was 41% with 63% conversion of reactant at 250 °C over Cs(NH4)2PMo12O40(VO)Cu0.5. Cesium (Cs) stabilized the catalyst structure at 250 °C, and vanadium(v) and copper (Cu) played a positive role as an oxidant and promoter, respectively. A 0.3 mm nozzle atomized the liquid reactant over the catalyst surface into a μ-fluidized bed reactor. The proposed Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model predicts MAA selectivity based on 2MPDO and oxygen compositions and catalyst components (Cs, V, Cu) as independent factors. The model accounts for 97% of the variance in the data (R2 = 0.97). Vanadium as a catalyst component and oxygen concentration are the two most significant factors. Genetic algorithms (GA) coupled with ANN modeling optimized the input parameters to improve the selectivity. The selectivity to MAA over the optimized catalyst (Cs(NH4)2PMo12O40(VO)Cu0.15) and optimum feed compositions (2MPDO/O2/Ar = 13%/10%/77%) was 43% at 250 °C.

- Comparison of “on water” and solventless procedures in the rhodium-catalyzed hydroformylation of diolefins, alkynes, and unsaturated alcohols
-
Catalytic systems containing Rh(acac)(CO)2 or Rh/PAA (PAA?=?polyacrylic acid) and hydrophobic phosphine (PPh3) were used in the hydroformylation of diolefins, alkynes, and unsaturated alcohols under solventless and “on water” conditions. The total yield of dialdehydes obtained from 1,5-hexadiene and 1,7-octadiene reached 99%, and regioselectivity towards linear dialdehydes was higher in the “on water” system. The tandem hydroformylation-hydrogenation of phenylacetylene led to the formation of saturated aldehydes (3-phenylpropanal and 2-phenylpropanal) at 98% conversion with a good regioselectivity towards the linear aldehyde in the “on water” reaction. In contrast, solventless conditions appeared better in the hydroformylation of 1-propen-3-ol. 4-Hydroxybutanal, formed in this reaction with an excellent selectivity, was next transformed to tetrahydrofuran-2-ol via a ring-closure process. Cyclic products were also obtained in hydroformylation of 1-buten-3-ol. In reaction of undec-1-ol and 2-allylphenol linear aldehydes were formed with the yield 69–87%. The hydroformylation of 3-buten-1-ol performed under “on water” conditions showed very good regioselectivity towards a linear aldehyde, 5-hydroxypentanal. Further cyclization of the aldehyde to tetrahydropyran-2-ol was observed.

- Small-Molecule Activation within the Group 6 Complexes (η5-C5Me5)[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]M(CO)(L) for M = Mo, W and L = N2, NCMe, η2-Alkene, SMe2, C3H6O
-
A series of midvalent monocyclopentadienyl monoamidinate (CPAM) group 6 complexes of the general formula Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]M(CO)(L) (II), where Cp? = η5-C5Me5 and M = Mo, W, have been prepared, and most of them have been structurally characterized. Treatment of the ditungsten "end-on-bridged" dinitrogen complex {Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]W}2(μ-η1:η1-N2) (3) with excess NCMe under a CO atmosphere produced the ditungsten bridging diimido complex {Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]W}2[μ-η1:η1-NC(Me)=(Me)N] (4). Photolysis of Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]M(CO)2, where M = Mo (6), W (7), or treatment of Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]Mo(CO)(NCMe) (1a) with excess alkene provided Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]M(CO)(L) for M = Mo and L = η2-ethene (8), M = W and L = η2-ethene (9), M = Mo and L = η2-norbornene (10), M = W and L = η2-norbornene (11), M = W and L = η2-cyclopentene (12), M = Mo and L = η2-cyclopentene (13), and M = Mo and L = η2-styrene (14). When isobutene was employed as the alkene, C-H bond activation occurred to produce Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]W(H)(η3-C4H7) (15). Photolysis of 7 in the presence of SMe2 provided Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]W[κ-C,O-C(O)Me](SMe) (16) through oxidative C-S bond activation of a coordinated SMe2, followed by 1,1-carbonyl migratory insertion into the new W-C bond. Finally, reaction of 1a with propylene oxide (C3H6O) provided the 16-electron complex Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]Mo[C(O)CH(Me)CH2O] (19) via similar oxidative C-O bond activation of coordinated C3H6O, followed by 1,1-carbonyl migratory insertion into the Mo-C bond of an intermediate metallaoxetane. Under a CO atmosphere, 19 is converted to the 18-electron complex Cp?[N(iPr)C(Me)N(iPr)]Mo[C(O)CH(Me)CH2O](CO) (20). These results provide additional support for the development of new stoichiometric and catalytic transformations that are mediated by CPAM group 6 metal complexes and that are relevant to the goal of small-molecule fixation.

- Selective oxidation and oxidative dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons on bismuth vanadium molybdenum oxide
-
A systematic investigation of the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane to propene and 1- and 2-butene to 1,3-butadiene, and the selective oxidation of isobutene to methacrolein was carried out over Bi1-x/3V1-xMoxO4 (x = 0-1) with the aim of defining the effects of catalyst and reactant composition on the reaction kinetics. This work has revealed that the reaction kinetics can differ significantly depending on the state of catalyst oxidation, which in turn depends on the catalyst composition and the reaction conditions. Under conditions where the catalyst is fully oxidized, the kinetics for the oxidation of propene to acrolein and isobutene to methacrolein, and the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane to propene, 1-butene and trans-2-butene to butadiene are very similar - first order in the partial pressure of the alkane or alkene and zero order in the partial pressure of oxygen. These observations, together with XANES and UV-Vis data, suggest that all these reactions proceed via a Mars van Krevelen mechanism involving oxygen atoms in the catalysts and that the rate-limiting step involves cleavage of the weakest C-H bond in the reactant. Consistent with these findings, the apparent activation energy and pre-exponential factor for both oxidative dehydrogenation and selective oxidation correlate with the dissociation energy of the weakest C-H bond in the reactant. As the reaction temperature is lowered, catalyst reoxidation can become rate-limiting, the transition to this regime depending on ease of catalyst reduction and effectiveness of the reacting hydrocarbons as a reducing agent. A third regime is observed for isobutene oxidation at lower temperatures, in which the catalyst is more severely reduced and oxidation now proceeds via reaction of molecular oxygen, rather than catalyst lattice oxygen, with the reactant.

- Bismuth-substituted "sandwich" type polyoxometalate catalyst for activation of peroxide: Umpolung of the peroxo intermediate and change of chemoselectivity
-
The epoxidation of alkenes with peroxides by WVI, MoVI, VV, and TiIV compounds is well established, and it is well accepted that the active intermediate peroxo species are electrophilic toward nucleophilic substrates. Polyoxotungstates, for example, those of the "sandwich" structure, [WZn(TM-L)2(ZnW9O34)2]q- in which TM = transition metal and L = H2O, have in the past been found to be excellent epoxidation catalysts. It has now been found that substituting the Lewis basic BiIII into the terminal position of the "sandwich" polyoxometalate structure to yield [Zn2BiIII2(ZnW9O34)2]14- leads to an apparent umpolung of the peroxo species and formation of a nucleophilic peroxo intermediate. There are two lines of evidence that support the formation of a reactive nucleophilic peroxo intermediate: (1) More electrophilic sulfoxides are more reactive than more nucleophilic sulfides, and (2) nonfunctionalized aliphatic alkenes and dienes showed ene type reactivity rather than epoxidation pointing toward "dark" formation of singlet oxygen from the nucleophilic intermediate peroxo species. Allylic alcohols reacted much faster than alkenes but showed chemoselectivity toward C-H bond activation of the alcohol and formation of aldehydes or ketones rather than epoxidation. This explained via alkoxide formation at the BiIII center followed by oxidative β-elimination.

- Catalytic selective oxidation of isobutane over Csx(NH 4)3-xHPMo11VO40 mixed salts
-
A series of mixed Keggin-type heteropolysalts Csx(NH 4)3-xHPMo11VO40 with various ammonia/caesium ratios was prepared by the precipitation method and characterized by TGA, N2 adsorption/desorption, XRD, FT-IR, and NH3-TPD techniques. Correlations between the ammonia/caesium ratio and the specific surface area, as well as with the total number of acid sites, were established. Furthermore, the introduction of Cs to the catalytic formulation was beneficial to the stabilization of the Keggin structure and helped limiting the elimination of the V atoms from the primary structure. The as-prepared samples were applied in the catalytic selective oxidation of isobutane at 340 °C under atmospheric pressure. The best results were obtained over Cs1.7(NH4)1.3HPMo 11VO40 with an isobutane conversion of 9.6% and a total selectivity to valuable products (methacrylic acid and methacrolein) of 57.1%. This was explained by the well-balanced acidity and specific surface of this catalyst, promoting the C-H bond activation (adequate acid properties) over a large number of accessible active sites (high acid sites density). the Partner Organisations 2014.

- Selective acceptorless dehydrogenation and hydrogenation by iridium catalysts enabling facile interconversion of glucocorticoids
-
An iridium(III) pentamethylcyclopentadienyl catalyst supported by 6,6'-dihydroxy-2,2'-bipyridine displays exquisite selectivity in acceptorless alcohol dehydrogenation of cyclic α,β-unsaturated alcohols over benzylic and aliphatic alcohols under mild aqueous reaction conditions. Hydrogenation of aldehydes and ketones occurs indiscriminately using the same catalyst under hydrogen, although chemoselectivity could be achieved when other potentially reactive carbonyl groups present are sterically inaccessible. This chemistry was demonstrated in the reversible hydrogenation and dehydrogenation of the A ring of glucocorticoids, despite the presence of other alcohol/or carbonyl functionalities in rings C and D. NMR studies suggest that an iridium(III) hydride species is a key intermediate in both hydrogenation and dehydrogenation processes.

- OH-initiated photooxidations of 1-pentene and 2-methyl-2-propen-1-ol: Mechanism and yields of the primary carbonyl products
-
The products of the gas-phase reactions of OH radicals with 1- pentene and 2-methyl-2-propen-1-ol (221MPO) at T=298±2 K and atmospheric pressure were investigated by using a 4500 L atmospheric simulation chamber that was built especially for this work. The molar yield of butyraldehyde was 0.74± 0.12 mol for the reaction of 1-pentene. This work provides the first product molar yield determination of formaldehyde (0.82±0.12 mol), 1-hydroxypropan-2-one (0.84±0.13 mol), and methacrolein (0.078±0.012 mol) from the reaction of 221MPO with OH radicals. The mechanism of this reaction is discussed in relation to the experimental results. Additionally, taking into consideration the complex mechanism, the rate coefficients of the reactions of OH with formaldehyde, 1-hydroxypropan-2- one, and methacrolein were derived at atmospheric pressure and T=298±2 K.; the obtained values were (8.9±1.6)×10-12, (2.4±1.4)×10-12, and (22.9±2.3)×10-12 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, respectively.
