In this work, catalytic hydrogen transfer as an effective, green, convenient and economical strategy is for the first time used to synthesize anilines and N-heterocyclic aromatic compounds from nitrobenzene and N-heterocycles in one step. Nevertheless, how to effectively reduce the possible effects of water on the catalyst by removal of the by-product water, and to further introduce water as the solvent based on green chemistry are still challenges. Since the structures and properties of carbon nanocomposites are easily modified by controllable construction, a one step pyrolysis process is used for controllable construction of micro/nano hierarchical carbon nanocomposites with core-shell structures and magnetic separation performance. Using various characterization methods and model reactions the relationship between the structure of Ni?NCFs (nickel-nitrogen-doped carbon frameworks) and catalytic performance was investigated, and the results show that there is a positive correlation between the catalytic performance and hydrophobicity of catalysts. Besides, the possible catalytically active sites, which are formed by the interaction of pyridinic N and graphitic N in the structure of nitrogen-doped graphene with the surfaces of Ni nanoparticles, should be pivotal to achieving the relatively high catalytic performance of materials. Due to its unique structure, the obtained Ni?NCF-700 catalyst with superhydrophobicity shows extraordinary performances toward the hydrogen transfer reaction of nitrobenzene and N-heterocycles in the aqueous state; meanwhile, it was also found that Ni?NCF-700 still retained its excellent catalytic activity and structural integrity after three cycles. Compared with traditional catalytic systems, our catalytic systems offer a highly effective, green and economical alternative for nitrobenzene and N-heterocycle transformation, and may open up a new avenue for simple construction of structure and activity defined carbon nanocomposite heterogeneous catalysts with superhydrophobicity.

Solid acidic catalysts made of sulfuric acid supported on silica-gel and their application to the nitration of aromatics with nitric acid and isopropyl nitrate are described. Substrates with very different levels of activation were investigated. Methods to overcome the poisoning produced by water and to tune the catalysts activity according to the reactivity of the substrate are outlined.
NUCLEOPHILIC HETEROAROMATIC SUBSTITUTIONS. XXXIX. THE REACTION OF α- AND γ-- AND α- AND γ--7-NITROQUINOLINE WITH PIPERIDINE IN BENZONITRILE: BASE CATALYSIS AND O vs S REACTIVITY

The reactivity of the title compounds with piperidine has been examined.Product analysis showed that substitution is accompanied by other processes, the extent of which depends on the reactivity of the substrates towards nucleophilic substitution and is greatest in the case of the γ-arylthio derivative, which does not undergo substitution at all.Accordingly, a kinetic analysis of the reaction could be performed only for the two aryloxy and the α-arylthio derivatives.Second-order rate coefficients for the reactions of the α-substituted quinolines were found to be independent of amine concentration and the α-aryloxy derivative was found to be only ca 4 times as reactive as the α-arylthio compound.In contrast, the reaction of the γ-aryloxy derivative followed third-order kinetics and turned out to be base-catalysed because it was accelerated by added quinuclidine.The reaction mechanisms are discussed in the light of these observations and other, previously reported, facts.
