, p. 3842 - 3844 (2013)
Amorphous silica and crystalline silicalite (MFI structure) are demonstrated to be active and environmentally benign catalysts for propionic acid ketonisation at 450-500 °C to form 3-pentanone. The silicalite is particularly efficient, and its ketonisation selectivity is increased by base modification probably through generation of silanol nests.

Diamagnetic ruthenium(II) complexes of the type [Ru(L)(CO)(B)(EPh3)] [where E = As, B = AsPh3; E = P, B = PPh3, py (or) pip and L = dibasic tridentate ligands dehydroacetic acid semicarbazone (abbreviated as dhasc) or dehydroacetic acid phenyl thiosemicarbazone (abbreviated as dhaptsc)] were synthesized from the reaction of [RuHCl(CO)(B)(EPh3)2] (where E = As, B = AsPh3; E = P, B = PPh3, py (or) pip) with different tridentate chelating ligands derived from dehydroacetic acid with semicarbazide or phenylthiosemicarbazide. All the complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Vis and 1H NMR spectral methods. The coordination mode of the ligands and the geometry of the complexes were confirmed by single crystal X-ray crystallography of one of the complexes [Ru(dhaptsc)(CO)(PPh3)2] (5). All the complexes are redox active and are monitored by cyclic voltammetric technique. Further, the catalytic efficiency of one of the ruthenium complexes (5) was determined in the case of oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols into their corresponding aldehydes and ketones in the presence of N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide.

CeO2 rods, octahedrons, and cubes exposing well-defined (110), (111), and (100) surfaces, respectively, were synthesized and investigated for the catalytic ketonization of propionic acid. The intrinsic ketonization rates at 350 °C on the rods, octahedrons, and cubes are 54.3, 40.4, and 25.1 mmol·m-2·h-1, respectively, indicating that the (110) facet is the most active surface for ketonization. The reaction was tracked by both in situ infrared and mass spectroscopies under transient conditions, and the results showed that monodentate propionate, a minority surface species, is responsible for the formation of 3-pentanone. In contrast, bidentate propionate, a dominant species on all three surfaces, appears to a spectator for ketonization. Moreover, the ketonization activity can be correlated with relative concentration of monodentate propionate. A density functional theory study showed that the relative concentration of monodentate propionate (or the adsorption energy difference between monodentate and bidentate configurations) at high coverages is strongly dependent on the surface geometry. The stability of monodentate propionate on the (110) surface exposing both the O and Ce sites in the outermost layer with the well-separated Ce sites exhibits little dependence on the propionate coverage. In contrast, strong steric hindrance due to the top layer O atom and the closely packed Ce atoms in (111) destabilizes monodentate propionate significantly at high coverages. This study demonstrates that the surface geometrical structure of CeO2 can determine the abundance of the active monodentate propionate, which, in turn, will determine the catalytic activity of CeO2 for ketonization.

Two highly efficient metal-organic framework catalysts TJU-68-NHPI and TJU-68-NDHPI have been successfully synthesized through solvothermal reactions of which the frameworks are merged with N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) units, resulting in the decoration of pore surfaces with highly active nitroxyl catalytic sites. When t-butyl nitrite (TBN) is used as co-catalyst, the as-synthesized MOFs are demonstrated to be highly efficient and recyclable catalysts for a novel three-phase heterogeneous oxidation of activated C?H bond of primary and secondary alcohols, and benzyl compounds under mild conditions. Based on the high efficiency and selectivity, an environmentally benign system with good sustainability, mild conditions, simple work-up procedure has been established for practical oxidation of a wide range of substrates.
