An intriguing class of quinones that efficiently catalyze the air oxidation (overall hydroxylation) of arylboronic acids to the corresponding phenol is reported. Autocatalysis in the parent system is particularly efficient and leads to rapid, quantitative synthesis of quinones such as 4 from boronic acid 1 at room temperature using air as stoichiometric oxidant. The efficiency results from a balance between two-stage conjugate addition and migration with each step driven by aromatization of a naphthalene fragment.

A stable Ni2+substituted TiO2catalyst (Ti0.97Ni0.03O1.97) has been synthesized by a solution combustion method with an average crystallite size of 7.5 nm. Ti1?xNixO2?x(x= 0.01-0.06) crystallizes in the TiO2anatase structure with Ni2+substituted in Ti4+ion sites and Ni taking a nearly square planar geometry. This catalyst is found to be highly active in the transformation of diverse arylboronic acids to the corresponding phenols. The catalyst coated cordierite monolith can even be recycled for up to 20 cycles with a cumulative TOF of 1.8 × 105h?1. In scale-up reactions, various phenols are synthesized by employing a single cordierite monolith. It also shows high performance in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol.

A V2O5@TiO2 catalyzed green and efficient protocol for the hydroxylation of boronic acid into phenol has been developed utilizing environmentally benign oxidant hydrogen peroxide. A wide range of electron-donating and the electron-withdrawing group-containing (hetero)aryl boronic acids were transformed into their corresponding phenol. The methodology was also applied successfully to transform various natural and bioactive molecules like tocopherol, amino acids, cinchonidine, vasicinone, menthol, and pharmaceuticals such as ciprofloxacin, ibuprofen, and paracetamol. The other feature of the methodology includes gram-scale synthetic applicability, recyclability, and short reaction time.
Cu2O/TiO2 as a sustainable and recyclable photocatalyst for gram-scale synthesis of phenols in water

A green and straightforward protocol was developed for the synthesis of phenols from aryl boronic acid using an inexpensive and available Cu2O/TiO2 photocatalyst under visible light and sunlight. This approach proceeded in mild reaction conditions in water and the presence of air as a green oxidant, resulting in the corresponding phenols in good to excellent yields. Sunlight was also a sustainable source for this photochemical reaction. Heterogeneous nano photocatalyst was successfully recovered in 8 consecutive runs. It is noteworthy that, the photocatalyst exhibited high activity for the large-scale synthesis of phenols.
