- Application of an indenyl molybdenum dicarbonyl complex in the isomerisation of α-pinene oxide to campholenic aldehyde
-
The complex [{(η5-Ind)Mo(CO)2(μ-Cl)} 2] (1) has been tested for the industrially relevant catalytic isomerisation of α-pinene oxide (PinOx) to campholenic aldehyde (CPA) in the liquid phase. PinOx conversion and CPA selectivity are strongly influenced by the solvent employed. Complete conversion of PinOx was achieved within 1 min at 55 °C or 30 min at 35 °C using 1,2-dichloroethane as solvent, giving CPA in 68% yield. Other products included trans-carveol, iso-pinocamphone and trans-pinocarveol. The stability of 1 under the reaction conditions used was investigated by using FT-IR spectroscopy and electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) to characterise recovered solids. In the presence of air/moisture 1 undergoes oxidative decarbonylation upon dissolution to give oxomolybdenum species that are proposed to include a tetranuclear oxomolybdenum(v) complex. Conversely, ESI-MS studies of 1 dissolved in dry acetonitrile show mononuclear species of the type [IndMo(CO)2(CH 3CN)n]+. The crystal structure of the ring-slipped dicarbonyl complex [(η3-Ind)Mo(CO) 2Cl(CH3CN)2] (2) (obtained after dissolution of 1 in acetonitrile) is reported. the Partner Organisations 2014.

- Rearrangement of α-pinene oxide to campholenic aldehyde over the trimesate metal-organic frameworks MIL-100, MIL-110 and MIL-96
-
The catalytic performance of porous metal-benzenetricarboxylates, such as MIL-100(Al, Fe and Cr), MIL-110(Al) and MIL-96(Al), was investigated with a combination of physicochemical and catalytic approaches in the rearrangement of α-pinene oxide to campholenic aldehyde (CA). The investigation of Lewis acidity was done by EPR and IR spectroscopy using 2,2′,6,6′- tetramethyl-1-piperidinyoxyl radical and benzonitrile as the probe molecules, respectively. For Al-BTCs, both these methods showed a decrease in the amount of Lewis acid sites as follows: MIL-100 > MIL-110 > MIL-96. The reaction rate and selectivity toward CA also decreased in the same order. A relatively good correlation between selectivity toward CA and the electronegativity of the metal ion was found for isostructural MIL-100(Al, Fe and Cr). The selectivity toward CA decreased in the order: MIL-100(Al) > MIL-100(Fe) > MIL-100(Cr). The high selectivity toward CA in the presence of MIL-100 has been suggested to originate from the unique structure of this material, which favors shape selectivity.

- Acid/vanadium-containing saponite for the conversion of propene into coke: Potential flame-retardant filler for nanocomposite materials
-
Vanadium-containing saponite samples were synthesized in a one-pot synthetic procedure with the aim of preparing samples for potential application as fillers for polymeric composites. These vanadium-modified materials were prepared from an acid support by adopting a synthetic strategy that allowed us to introduce isolated structural V species (H/V-SAP). The physicochemical properties of these materials were investigated by XRD analysis and by DR-UV/Vis and FTIR spectroscopy of CO that was adsorbed at 100 K; these data were compared to those of a V-modified saponite material that did not contain any Bronsted acid sites (Na/V-SAP). The surface-acid properties of both samples (together with the fully acidic H-SAP material and the Na-SAP solid) were studied in the catalytic isomerization of α-pinene oxide. The V-containing solids were tested in the oxidative dehydrogenation reaction of propene to evaluate their potential use as flame-retardant fillers for polymer composites. The effect of tuning the presence of Lewis/Bronsted acid sites was carefully studied. The V-containing saponite sample that contained a marked presence of Bronsted acid sites showed the most interesting performance in the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) reactions because they produced coke, even at 773 K. The catalytic data presented herein indicate that the H/V-SAP material is potentially active as a flame-retardant filler. In questo lavoro e stato sintetizzata tramite metodologia one-pot una saponite contenente in struttura vanadio, di interesse come additivo per compositi polimerici. La metodologia di sintesi adottata ha permesso di ottenere un solido acido contenente siti di vanadio strutturale isolati (H/V-SAP). Le proprieta chimico-fisiche di tale materiale sono state studiate tramite XRD, DR-UV-Vis e FT-IR di CO adsorbito a 100 K e confrontate con quelle di una V-saponite priva di acidita di Bronsted (Na/V-SAP). Le proprieta acide di entrambi i materiali (e di saponiti acidi H-SAP e sodica Na-SAP) sono state investigate sottoponendo i campioni ad un test catalitico di isomerizzazione dell' ossido di α-pinene. I campioni contenenti vanadio sono stati infine testati come catalizzatori per la reazione di deidrogenazione ossidativa del propene, con l'obiettivo di valutarne i loro potenziale uso come additivi ritardanti di fiamma per compositi polimerici. La saponite contenente vanadio strutturale e caratterizzata da una marcata acidita di Bronsted ha mostrato le migliori prestazioni catalitiche, producendo prodotti carboniosi anche ad alte temperature di esercizio (773 K). I dati catalitici qui mostrati indicano che il campione H/V-SAP e potenzialmente attivo come ritardante di fiamma per compositi polimerici. A hard day's saponite: An acid/vanadium-containing saponite (H/V-SAP) was synthesized and its physicochemical properties were compared to those of a V-modified saponite material that did not contain acid sites. Both samples were tested in the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) reaction of propene to study the capability of the samples to form coke species. H/V-SAP was the most interesting catalyst for the production of coke. Copyright

- Homo- and heterogeneous α-pinene photooxidation using a protoporphyrin-derived amide
-
6,7-Bis[3-(NIμ-tert-butyloxycarbonyllysine methyl ester)]-1,3,5,8-tetramethyl-2,4-divinylporphyrin (3) was synthesized and successfully immobilized in a silica matrix by a sol-gel method. Protoporphyrin (PP)-derived amide 3 showed much higher photostability than its parent PP-IX. Its UV/Vis absorption, excitation, and fluorescence spectra as well as its ability to generate 1O2 were measured both in solution and in the matrix. Subsequently, free and immobilized porphyrins 3 were used as sensitizers in the photooxidation of α-pinene, and their photocatalytic properties were compared. Newly synthesized protoporphyrin (PP)-derived amide 3 is more photostable than PP-IX. Because it is able to generate 1O2, it could be used as a biomimetic catalyst for the oxidation of α-pinene under visible light. After successful immobilization in a silica matrix, a transparent organic-inorganic hybrid was obtained that shows intensive luminescence. Copyright

- THE ALLYLIC REARRANGEMENT OF HYDROPEROXIDES : THE ALLYLPEROXYL RADICAL
-
The free-radical rearrangement of pinocarveyl hydroperoxide (1) or myrtenyl hydroperoxide (2) in hexane produces an equilibrium mixture of both hydroperoxides.The absence of carbon skeletal rearrangement suggests that the intermediate radical involved in hydroperoxide isomerization has its unpaired electron localized elsewhere than the α-carbon atom.The failure of oxygen to react with pinocarveyl, myrtenyl, and acyclic hydroperoxides (8) and (9) during the allylic rearrangement supports this suggestion.The kinetics of the rearrangement of 1-isopropyl-2-methylallyl hydroperoxide (8) is compatible with a mechanism in wich the intermediate is a common allylperoxyl radical produced directly from either allylic isomer.

- Palladium catalyzed oxidation of monoterpenes: NMR study of palladium(II)-monoterpene interactions
-
Reactions of the monoterpenes β-pinene, limonene and myrcene with Pd(II) complexes in acetic acid solutions were studied by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Various π-allyl palladium complexes were detected in situ and their interaction with CuCl2 has been investigated. The results clarify the mechanism of allylic oxidation of these substrates mediated by Pd(II)/Cu(II)-based catalytic systems. Originally introduced to regenerate reduced palladium species, CuCl2 has been shown to play an important role in the formation and/or decomposition of key reaction intermediates - π-allyl palladium complexes. β-Pinene and myrcene readily react with Pd(OAc)2 giving corresponding π-allyls, with two complexes acyclic and cyclic being formed from myrcene. On the other hand, the formation of π-allyl complexes from limonene occurs at a significant rate only in the presence of CuCl2. NMR observations, including selective paramagnetic enhancement of spin-lattice relaxation, indicate that π-allyl palladium intermediates specifically interact with Cu(II) ions in the reaction solutions. Such interaction probably involves Cu(II) bonding to Pd(II) via bridging ligands, and seems to be responsible for the accelerative effect of CuCl 2 in the palladium catalyzed oxidation of the monoterpenes. Indeed, most of these reactions do not occur at all in the absence of CuCl2.

The proposal that 4-exo closure of an allylic peroxyl radical can account for the titled reactions of pinocarveyl hydroperoxide has been considered in the light of literature data, along with the results of reactions carried out with a range of alternative copper and iron reagents and with the previously examinated reagents in the presence or absence of suitable traps: an acid-catalysed pathway is proposed to account for the observed scission reaction.

- Catalytic isomerisation of α-pinene oxide in the presence of ETS-10 supported ferrocenium ions
-
Ferrocenium ions, [Fc]+, have been immobilised in the microporous titanosilicate ETS-10 by ion exchange of Na+/K+ ions under hydrothermal conditions. The resultant hybrid inorganic-organometallic (ETS-10/[Fc]+) material was characterised by elemental analysis, diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The ETS-10/[Fc]+ sample was tested as a catalyst for the isomerisation of α-pinene oxide (PinOx) at 35 C. With α, α, α-trifluorotoluene (TFT) as solvent, campholenic aldehyde (CPA) was the main product formed in 38% yield at 100% conversion and 30 min reaction. Other reaction products included trans-carveol, iso-pinocamphone and trans-pinocarveol. The same PinOx conversion and CPA yield could be reached within 1 min reaction time by increasing the reaction temperature (to 55 °C) and the Fe:PinOx molar ratio. Other solvents (hexane, CH3CN, toluene) led to poorer results than TFT. Characterisation of the used catalyst, together with an analysis of the catalytic activity of the liquid phase obtained after contact of ETS-10/[Fc]+ with TFT, indicated that the ETS-10/[Fc]+ sample was resistant toward leaching of iron-containing active species. When the recovered solid was reused in a second batch run, catalytic activity was lower than in the first run, while selectivity to CPA was higher.

- Selective Allylic Oxidation of Terpenic Olefins Using Co-Ag Supported on SiO2 as a Novel, Efficient, and Recyclable Catalyst
-
Co-Ag supported on the SiO2 catalyst was synthesized by the sol-gel method and characterized using XRD, FT-IR, TG-DTG, BET, CV, and SEM/EDX analysis. The catalytic performance of the resulting catalyst was examined by the oxidation of mono and sesquiterpenic olefins using hydrogen peroxide and tert-butyl peroxide as oxidant agents. Various parameters such as catalyst amount, temperature, and solvents have been studied. The Co-Ag supported on the SiO2 catalyst showed a high activity, selectivity, and recyclability for the selected oxidation reaction.

- Phosphonate functionalized carbon spheres as Br?nsted acid catalysts for the valorization of bio-renewable a-pinene oxide totrans-carveol
-
Herein, we report a simple route for the synthesis of phosphonate functionalized Br?nsted solid acid carbon spheres as heterogeneous catalyst for the valorization of bio-derived a-pinene oxide. The Br?nsted acidity was generatedviatwo steps; hydrothermal carbonization of sugar to produce carbon microspheres followed by PCl3treatment to form phosphonate functionalized carbon. The presence of phosphonate was confirmed by CP-MAS31P and13C NMR. In addition, the presence of the P-C, O-P-C and HO-P?O bonds of the phosphonate group was confirmed by FT-IR,31P NMR, and XPS. SEM-EDAX analysis revealed the presence of a phosphorus content of ~1.71 wt% on the surface of the catalyst while elemental mapping showed a uniform dispersion of phosphorus over the carbon spheres. The as-synthesized Br?nsted solid acid catalyst was used for the isomerization of a-pinene oxide which gave 100% conversion with 67%trans-carveol selectivity in highly polar basic solvent in 1 h reaction time. Also, the catalyst showed good recyclable activity even after five cycles.

- Design of stable mixed-metal MIL-101(Cr/Fe) materials with enhanced catalytic activity for the Prins reaction
-
This work highlights the benefit of designing mixed-metal (Cr/Fe) MOFs for enhanced chemical stability and catalytic activity. A robust and stable mixed-metal MIL-101(Cr/Fe) was prepared through a HF-free direct hydrothermal route with Fe3+ content up to 21 wt%. The incorporation of Fe3+ cations in the crystal structure was confirmed by 57Fe M?ssbauer spectrometry. The catalytic performance of the mixed metal MIL-101(Cr/Fe) was evaluated in the Prins reaction. MIL-101(Cr/Fe) exhibited a higher catalytic activity compared to MIL-101(Cr), improved chemical stability compared to MIL-101(Fe) and a higher catalytic activity for bulky substrates compared to MIL-100(Fe). In situ infra-red spectroscopy study suggests that the incorporation of Fe3+ ions in MIL-101 structure leads to an increase in Lewis acid sites. It was thus concluded that the predominant role of Cr3+ ions was to maintain the crystal structure, while Fe3+ ions enhanced the catalytic activity.

Metallodeuteroporphyrins (MDPs) were employed as the catalysts for aerobic oxidation of β-pinene in absence of solvents and additives. Allylic hydroxylation products were found to be the main products from this protocol. The catalytic activity of MDPs with different metal nuclei and the influences of technological conditions on this reaction were investigated. This catalytic system has bright application prospect since only eco-friendly and readily available dioxygen were needed.

The invention discloses a beta-pinene selective hydroxylation oxidation method and a product thereof. The beta-pinene selective hydroxylation oxidation method uses ordinary-pressure oxygen or oxygen-enriched air as an oxidant, uses metal porphyrin or their solid carriers as a catalyst and is performed in the absence of an additional solvent or a co-oxidation reducer, and the beta-pinene hydroxylation oxidation product is obtained by means of the method in a high-selectivity mode. Main oxidation products include pinocarveol, 2,10-epoxy pinane and myrtenol, wherein the overall selectivity of the hydroxylation oxidation products 1 and 3 is above 90%. The usage amount of the catalyst used in method is small, a reaction process is simple, the temperature is low, the initiation rate is high, the selectivity is good, homogeneous catalysis can be achieved, and heterogeneous catalysis can also be performed after immobilization.

- Biologically Inspired and Magnetically Recoverable Copper Porphyrinic Catalysts: A Greener Approach for Oxidation of Hydrocarbons with Molecular Oxygen
-
An efficient synthetic method for magnetically recoverable hybrid copper porphyrinic nanomaterials is reported. These functionalized magnetic materials prove to be efficient bioinspired oxidation catalysts of olefins and thiols, using molecular oxygen as oxidant, in total absence of reductants and solvents, with the highest TON (turnover number) yet achieved for this reaction (≈200 000). A comparative study between homogeneous and heterogeneous oxidation of cyclohexene is discussed, revealing the heterogeneous system to be the most promising concerning stability and reusability of the catalysts. The full characterization of the magnetic hybrid porphyrinic nanomaterials, by transmission electron microscopy, flame atomic absorption spectrometry, thermogravimetry, N2 sorption, and infrared spectroscopy, is also described.

The cyclopentadienyl molybdenum carbonyl complexes [(η5-C5H4R)Mo(CO)2(η3-C3H5)] and [(η5-C5H5)Mo(CO)3(CH2R)] (R = H, COOH) have been shown to promote acid-catalysed reactions in liquid phase, under moderate conditions. The catalytic alcoholysis of styrene oxide with ethanol at 35 °C gave 2-ethoxy-2-phenylethanol in 100% yield within 30 min for the dicarbonyl complexes and 3-6 h for the tricarbonyl complexes. Steady catalytic performances were observed in consecutive runs with the same catalytic solution, suggesting fairly good catalytic stability. In the second acid-catalysed reaction studied, the isomerization of α-pinene oxide at 55 °C gave campholenic aldehyde and trans-carveol in a total yield of up to 86% at 100% conversion. Chemoselectivity is shown to be solvent dependent.

- H- and Fe-modified zeolite beta catalysts for preparation of trans-carveol from α-pinene oxide
-
The isomerisation of a-pinene oxide has been intensively investigated for selective preparation of campholenic aldehyde, a compound used in the synthesis of fragrances. Selective preparation of another product of α-pinene oxide rearrangement, trans-carveol, still remains a challenging task. Trans-carveol is a highly valuable compound used in perfume bases, food flavour compositions and as an active pharmaceutical substance in chemoprevention of mammary carcinogenesis. In the present work zeolite beta with different SiO2/Al2O3 molar ratios was modified by iron, characterised and tested per se and in the modified form for trans-carveol preparation from a-pinene oxide. The isomerisation reaction was carried out in a polar basic solvent N, N-dimethylacetamide at 140 °C. The activities and selectivities of the catalysts were correlated with their acid properties and with the iron content.

- Isomerization of α-pinene oxide using Fe-supported catalysts: Selective synthesis of campholenic aldehyde
-
α-Pinene oxide, an oxygenated derivative of α-pinene, can be converted into various valuable substances useful as flavour, fragrance and pharmaceutical compounds. Campholenic aldehyde is one of the most desired products of α-pinene oxide isomerization being a valuable intermediate for the production of sandalwood-like fragrances. Iron modified zeolites Beta-75 and ZSM-5, mesoporous material MCM-41, silica and alumina were prepared by two methods (impregnation and solid-state ion exchange) and tested for selective preparation of campholenic aldehyde by isomerization of α-pinene oxide. The characterization of tested catalyst was carried out using scanning electron microscope analysis, nitrogen adsorption measurements, pyridine adsorption-desorption with FTIR, X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements, XPS-analysis, 29Si MAS NMR and 27Al MAS NMR and X-ray diffraction. The isomerization of α-pinene oxide was carried out in toluene as a solvent at 70 C. The main properties influencing the activity and the selectivity are the acidic and structural properties of the tested catalysts. The highest selectivity of 66% was achieved at complete conversion of α-pinene oxide with Fe-MCM-41.

-
The complex CpMo(CO)3CH2COOH (1) (Cp = η5-C5H5) has been examined as a precatalyst for the epoxidation of cis-cyclooctene and α-pinene using tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant. A high turnover frequency of ca. 600 mol molMo-1 h-1 was achieved in the epoxidation of cyclooctene, giving the epoxide as the only reaction product. With α-pinene as substrate, the added-value products α-pinene oxide and campholenic aldehyde were obtained. Two different approaches to facilitate catalyst recovery and reuse were explored: (1) use of an ionic liquid (IL) as solvent, and (2) intercalation of 1 in a Zn,Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) by a direct synthesis (coprecipitation) route. Characterization of the LDH by powder X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, FT-IR and 13C CP MAS NMR spectroscopies showed that the CpMo(CO)3CH 2COO- anions intercalate in a bilayer arrangement, resulting in an interlayer spacing of 20.7 A?. In the epoxidation of cyclooctene, catalytic activity in the first batch run was very high for the catalyst/IL mixture and moderate for the LDH. Characterization of the LDH after catalysis indicated that nearly complete oxidative decarbonylation of supported complexes had occurred (by reaction with TBHP), resulting in the presence of immobilized oxomolybdenum species. However, catalytic activities for both the recovered LDH and catalyst/IL decreased in consecutive runs, due in part to progressive removal of active species during either the catalytic reaction (for the LDH) or the solvent extraction/work-up (for the catalyst/IL mixture).

- Hydrocarbon oxidation over Fe- and Cr-containing metal-organic frameworks MIL-100 and MIL-101-a comparative study
-
Catalytic properties of Fe- and Cr-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) MIL-100 and MIL-101 have been assessed in two liquid-phase reactions: solvent-free allylic oxidation of alkenes (cyclohexene, α- and β-pinenes) with molecular oxygen and oxidation of anthracene (AN) with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). In the oxidation of alkenes, the product selectivity strongly depends on the nature of metal (Fe or Cr) but, for the same metal, only slightly differs for the MIL-100 and MIL-101 structures. The Fe-containing MOFs afford the formation of unsaturated alcohols while Cr-based MOFs give mainly unsaturated ketones. Both Cr-MIL-100 and Cr-MIL-101 favor decomposition of cyclohexenyl hydroperoxide to produce 2-cyclohexen-1-one with 67-69% selectivity. Stability toward destruction reduced in the order Cr-MIL-101, Cr-MIL-100 > Fe-MIL-100 > Fe-MIL-101. In the oxidation of anthracene over both Cr-MOFs and Fe-MIL-101, the selectivity toward 9,10-anthraquinone (AQ) attained 100% at 92-100% AN conversion. The turnover frequency (TOF) decreased in the order Cr-MIL-101 > Fe-MIL-101 > Cr-MIL-100 > Fe-MIL-100. Cr-MIL-101 revealed superior catalytic performance in terms of AN conversion, AQ selectivity and TOF. Nearly quantitative yield of AQ was obtained after 1.5 h at 100 °C in chlorobenzene as solvent. No leaching of active metal occurred under optimal reaction conditions and the MOFs could be recycled several times without deterioration of the catalytic properties.

- A novel Fe(III) salt-catalyzed monoterpene aerobic oxidation in methyl alcohol
-
The Fe(III)-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of monoterpenes in CH3OH has been developed, in which simple Fe(III) salts are used as catalysts in the absence of stabilizing ligands. Remarkably, Fe(NO3)3 catalyst efficiently promotes the oxidation of monoterpenes under air or dioxygen. The highest TON and TOF reached 476 and 162 h- 1, respectively. In general, reactions with 1.0-9.0 mol% of catalyst reached high conversions (ca. 90-99%) and high oxidation products selectivity (ca. 80%). Notably, α-pinene and β-pinene were selectively oxidized into only allylic product, myrtenol methyl ether. The significant breakthroughs of this simple oxidative process are the use of inexpensive Fe(III) salts as catalysts and environmentally-friendly oxidants (air or dioxygen).

A nanosized highly ordered mesoporous zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O 4; ZF) was synthesized via co-precipitation method, further sulfated with ammonium sulfate solution to obtain sulfated ZF (SZF) and have been used for the synthesis of nopol by Prins condensation of β-pinene and paraformaldehyde. The NH3-TPD and pyridine sorption DRIFT-IR studies revealed the significant enhancement in Lewis acidic sites of the zinc ferrite on sulfatation. The influence of various reaction parameters such as reaction temperature, effect of substrate stoichiometry and catalyst loading has been investigated. It gave 70% conversion of β-pinene with 88% selectivity to nopol. The spent catalyst was regenerated and reused successfully up to four cycles with slight loss in catalytic activity. The nanosized SZF catalyst was found to be highly active towards several other commercially important acid catalyzed reactions such as isomerization, acetalization and aldol condensation.

- Influence of the Br?nsted and Lewis acid sites on the catalytic activity and selectivity of Fe/MCM-41 system
-
The system Fe2O3/MCM-41, with high iron dispersion, was synthesized in order to introduce Lewis acid sites into the MCM-41 structure. Two calcination atmospheres (inert and oxidant) were used to produce iron nanoclusters with different structural properties. Besides, a silylation treatment was realized on both solids with the aim of neutralizing the Br?nsted acidity associated with the MCM-41 silanol groups. The samples were characterized by atomic absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction at low angles, N2 adsorption, temperature-programmed reduction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance of 29Si, and M?ssbauer spectroscopy. The influence of the structural changes of the nanoclusters and the effect of the simultaneous presence of Lewis and Br?nsted acid sites were evaluated studying the product distribution from the α-pinene oxide isomerization reaction. It was determined that the Br?nsted acidity of the Fe/MCM-41 system has not the sufficient acid strength to modify the product distribution which is mainly governed by the Lewis sites.

- β-pinene oxidation by hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by modified niobium-MCM
-
Although solid niobium has a high surface area, its high Lewis and Br?nsted acidity is a drawback that always compromises its catalytic performance in oxidation reactions. In this work, treating the niobium catalyst with hydrogen peroxide circumvents this disadvantage and results in a significant increase in the selectivity of the oxidation of β-pinene. In addition, the efficiency of the niobium catalysts supported on MCM was investigated. Nb-MCM//H2O2 and Nb-MCM were the most active catalysts. Good selectivity of up to 85% at a 93-97% substrate conversion has been achieved. The catalyst can easily be recovered and reused several times without loss in activity.

- Peculiarities of β-pinene autoxidation
-
The thermal oxidation of the renewable olefin β-pinene with molecular oxygen was experimentally and computationally investigated. Peroxyl radicals abstract weakly bonded allylic hydrogen atoms from the substrate, yielding allylic hydroperoxides (i.e., myrtenyl and pinocarvyl hydroperoxide). In addition, peroxyl radicals add to the C=C bond of the substrate to form an epoxide. It was found that a relatively high peroxyl radical concentration, together with the high rate of peroxyl cross-reactions, make radical-radical reactions surprisingly important for this particular substrate. Approximately 60% of these peroxyl cross-reactions lead to termination (radical destruction), keeping a radical chain length of approximately 4 at 10% conversion. Numerical simulation of the reaction-based on the proposed reaction mechanism and known or predicted rate constants-demonstrate the importance of peroxyl cross-reactions for the formation of alkoxyl radicals, which are the precursor of alcohol and ketone products.

- Selective photosensitized oxidation and its catalytic regulation of monoterpene with molecular oxygen in different reaction media
-
The photo-catalytic oxidation of α-pinene, β-pinene and limonene with molecular oxygen sensitized by tetrachlorotetraiodo-fluorescein sodium salt (RB) has been studied in different reaction media under green light irradiation. Simple and efficient photosensitized oxidation equipment was employed successfully to improve the efficiency of the photosensitized reaction. The results indicate that the photosensitized oxidation products can be directly obtained without after-treatment by reductive reagent. Furthermore, it was found that the product distributions are remarkably affected by reaction media, and that N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) can regulate the selectivity to products. In particular, the good selectivity (85%) to the main product (myrtenal) and the excellent conversion (99%) were obtained in the absence of any other catalysts when DMF was used as reaction solvent in the photosensitized oxidation of β-pinene. Moreover, the possible photosensitized oxidation reaction mechanism in different media was suggested in the present work.

- Silica- and polymer-supported platinum(II) polypyridyl complexes: Synthesis and application in photosensitized oxidation of alkenes
-
Square-planar polypyridine platinum(II) complexes have been introduced into a silica/polymer matrix by covalent ligand modification. The photophysical properties of the supported matrices are well retained as their model complexes, and the quantum yields for singlet oxygen (1O2) generation are comparable with that of TPP (tetraphenylporphyrin) under similar conditions. A preliminary application in photosensitized oxidation indicates the silica/polymer-supported matrices are promising, which can be reused without loss of reactivity by a simple filtration. Moreover, the polymer-supported matrix exhibits excellent compatibility in various solvents. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2009.

-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Xanthates have been readily converted into o-chlorophenyl thioethers using a one-step procedure conducted under radical conditions. In some selected cases, these aryl thioethers were successfully oxidized to the corresponding sulfoxides and sulfenic acid elimination afforded the corresponding vinylsilanes.

- Cobalt- and manganese-substituted ferrites as efficient single-site heterogeneous catalysts for aerobic oxidation of monoterpenic alkenes under solvent-free conditions
-
Cobalt- and manganese-substituted ferrites were used as heterogeneous catalysts for liquid-phase aerobic oxidation of various monoterpenic alkenes. The materials were prepared by co-precipitation and characterized by Moessbauer spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffractometry, magnetization measurements, and elemental analysis. The results show that isomorphic substitution of iron in the ferrite crystalline structure occurred preferentially at octahedral positions and strongly affected its catalytic properties in the oxidation of monoterpenes. Various valuable oxygenated monoterpenic compounds were obtained with high combined selectivities (75-95%) at ca. 40% substrate conversions. Oxidations of β-pinene and 3-carene led almost exclusively to allylic mono-oxygenated derivatives, whereas limonene and α-pinene gave both epoxides and allylic products. The use of inexpensive catalyst and oxidant, solvent-free conditions, and high final product concentrations (ca. 40 wt%) are significant practical advantages of this environmentally friendly process. The catalysts undergo no metal leaching and can be easily recovered by the application of an external magnet and reused.

- IRA-200 resin-supported platinum(II) complex for photooxidation of olefins
-
Cyclometalated platinum(II) 4,6-diphenyl-2,2′-bipyridine complex is supported on a commercially available cationic ion-exchange resin (amberlite IRA-200). Photophysical and ESR determinations indicate that the combined photosensitized system is able to generate singlet oxygen with high quantum yield upon irradiation of light in the visible region. The platinum(II) complex loaded on IRA-200 resin is stable and the photooxidation occurs in an environmentally friendly way. Only a simple filtration is needed to recycle the expensive metal catalyst.

- Transformation of α-pinene using Picea abies suspension culture
-
α-Pinene, both as the pure enantiomers and as the racemate, was transformed mainly to trans-verbenol by treatment with a Picea abies suspension cell culture. These reactions were followed by a slow transformation of the verbenol to verbenone, which was not transformed further. trans-Pinocarveol, myrtenol, cis-verbenol, and α-terpineol were byproducts of intermediate abundance. When subjected to the action of the suspension culture, cis-verbenol was not only transformed to verbenone but also isomerized to trans-verbenol. The transformation of α-pinene was fast, and the products were detected within one minute. The absolute configuration of the major products corresponded to that of the starting α-pinene enantiomer.

- Lithium-potassium superbases as key reagents for the base-catalysed isomerisation of some terpenoids
-
Some representative monoterpenes have been isomerised under the influence of Schlosser's lithium-potassium mixed superbases, promoting β-elimination reactions. The results are compared with those obtained with butyllithium and LDA. Different selectivities and different reaction yields are achieved as a function of the base employed. These results confirm the particular reactivity of bimetallic reagents. In this paper it is proposed that the observed selectivities might depend on the conformational features of the substrate, on the strength of the organometallic reagent, as well as on steric requirements of the elimination reaction.

- Controllable selectivity of photosensitized oxidation of olefins included in vesicles
-
9,10-Dicyanoanthracene (DCA) sensitized photooxidation of α-pinene, trans-stilbene and trans,trans-1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene in mixed surfactant vesicles was investigated. While the oxidation in homogeneous solution yields the products derived from both the energy transfer and the electron transfer pathways, that within Vesicles selectively yields either the singlet oxygen mediated or the superoxide radical anion mediated products depending on the status and location of the substrate and sensitizer molecules in the reaction medium. Upon incorporating the alkene in the bilayer membranes of one set of vesicles and DCA in another set of vesicles, the isolation of the substrate from the sensitizer prevents them from undergoing electron transfer. The singlet oxygen produced in the DCA-containing vesicles diffuses into the alkene-containing vesicles and reacts with the alkene. Thus, only the singlet oxygen oxidation products are obtained, and no product derived from the superoxide radical anion is detected. In contrast, incorporating both the sensitizer and the substrate within the same set of vesicles results in the two dissimilar molecules close to one another in the restricted space of the bilayer membranes of the vesicles. Thus, electron transfer from the alkenes to 1DCA* is enhanced, and the efficiency of the intersystem crossing from 1DCA* to 3DCA* is reduced. The photosensitized oxidation in this case only gives the products derived from the electron transfer pathway. Moreover, the reaction of singlet oxygen with DPB in vesicles results exclusively in the 1,2-cycloaddition products rather than the 1,4-cycloaddition product. This result indicates that the organized semirigid environment in vesicles prevents the olefin molecules from conformational change. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

- Photocatalytic Activation of Oxygen by Iron(III) Porphyrins
-
Photochemical charge transfer excitation of tetraphenyl(porphyrinato)iron(III) complexes yields tetraphenyl-(porphyrinato)iron(II) which is able to coordinate molecular oxygen under formation of oxo-[tetraphenyl(porphyrinato)]-iron(IV). Based on this photochemical reaction pathway photocatalytic oxygenation of α-pinene and other alkenes can be initiated. Iron(III) complexes of tetramesitylporphyrin, tetrakis-(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin, octa-β-bromo-tetrakis-(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin, and octa-β-chloro-tetrakis-(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin were investigated photochemically with the aim to improve the low photochemical efficiency of tetraphenyl(porphyrinato)iron(III). The influence of substituents on the porphyrin ligand on the photochemical behavior of the corresponding iron(III) complexes is measured mainly by means of temperature dependent UV/Vis spectroscopy. Both, the yield of oxygenation products formed photocatalytically with α-pinene and the product distribution (allylic alcohols versus epoxide) depend on the design of the porphyrin ligands coordinated with iron(III).

- Metal-Catalyzed Oxidations with Pinane Hydroperoxide: A Mechanistic Probe to Distinguish between Oxometal and Peroxometal Pathways
-
The relative reactivities of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) and pinane hydroperoxide (PHP) in metal (Cr, Mo, Ru, Se, V, and Zr)-catalyzed oxidations were compared. When these oxidations involve rate-limiting oxygen transfer from a peroxometal species to the substrate huge differences between TBHP and PHP were observed, e.g., molybdenum-catalyzed epoxidation of cyclohexene with TBHP gave a 98% yield while PHP gave 0%. When the reaction involves reaction of an oxometal species with the substrate as the rate-limiting step, little or no difference is observed, e.g., the selenium-catalyzed allylic oxidation of β-pinene gave a 96% and 99% yield with TBHP and PHP, respectively. Small but significant differences are observed when reoxidation of the catalyst by the hydroperoxide to the active oxometal species is the rate-limiting step; e.g., the chromium-catalyzed oxidation of carveol gave carvone in 89% and 24% yield with TBHP and PHP, respectively. Hence, the effect of RO2H structure on rate is dependent on the rate-limiting step.
