- 1,1′-Binaphthyl-2-methylpyridinium-based peroxophosphotungstate salts: Synthesis, characterization and their use as oxidation catalysts
-
A series of 1,1'-binaphthyl-2-methylammonium and pyridinium salts 6, 7, and 8 was synthesized through the coupling reaction of 2-(bromomethyl)-1,1'- binaphthalene (5) with the dendritic tetraallyl pyridinedicarbinol dendron 2 as well as triethylamine and 4-tert-butylpyridine. Tetraallyl pyridinedicarbinol dendron 2 was prepared by allylation of commercially available diethyl pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate (1). The allylation of 2 with, allyltrimethylsilane in the presence of boron trifluoride was unsuccessful, as tetraallyl pyridinedicarbinol trifluoroboron adduct 3 was obtained instead of expected hexaallylpyridine compound 4. The catalytic hydrogenation of allyl groups of the ammonium salt of 2, namely, tetraallyl 1,1'-binaphthyl-2-methylpyridinium salt 6, successfully led to the corresponding tetra-n-propyl 1,1'-binaphthyl-2- methylpyridinium salt 9. The reaction between salts 7, 8, and 9 and the heteropolyacid H3PW12O40 in the presence of a large excess of hydrogen peroxide afforded the corresponding 1,1'-binaphthyl-2-methylammonium-based polyoxometalate salts 10, 11, and 12, which, contain a catalytically active trianionic [H3PW 12O4O]3- in the core. These binaphthyl-POM salts are soluble in commonly used organic solvents, and their IR and 31P NMR spectroscopic and elemental analysis data indicate the presence of the POM unit in the frameworks. These POM hybrids are efficient, recoverable, and reusable catalysts in the oxidation of thioanisole, cyclooctene, and cyclohexanol, with H2O2 as the oxidant. A study of the countercation effects indicated that the reaction kinetics and the selectivity are sensitive to the structure of the cation. Two cycles of catalytic reactions were performed without a discernible loss in activity. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.

- Oxidovanadium(V) complexes containing hydrazone based O,N,O-donor ligands: Synthesis, structure, catalytic properties and theoretical calculations
-
Two new mono oxidovanadium(V) complexes, [VOL1(OEt)] (1) and [VOL2(OMe)] (2), of the tridentate Schiff base hydrazone-type O,N,O-donor ligands H2L1 and H2L2, obtained by monocondensation of 3-hydroxy-2-naphthohydrazide with 5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde and benzoylacetone, respectively, have been synthesized starting from VO(acac)2 [H2L1 = (E)-N′-(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-3-hydroxy-2-naphthohydrazide; H 2L2 = (E)-3-hydroxy-N′-((Z)-4-hydroxy-4-phenylbut-3- en-2-ylidene)-2-naphthohydrazide]. Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis revealed for both complexes a slightly distorted square-based pyramidal NO 4 coordination environment around the metal centre, with the aroylhydrazone Schiff bases acting as O,N,O-tridentate, dinegative ligands. The complexes were also characterized by spectroscopic methods in the solid state (IR) and in solution (UV-Vis, 1H NMR) and by cyclic voltammetric experiments in DMSO, and their properties were interpreted by means of DFT theoretical calculations. The catalytic potential of these complexes has been tested for the oxidation of thioanisol using H2O2 as the terminal oxidant. The effects of various parameters, including the molar ratio of oxidant to substrate, the temperature and the solvent, have been studied. Both complexes showed superabundant catalytic activity in the oxidation of thioanisol at room temperature with excellent conversions.

- ONE ELECTRON TRANSFER MECHANISM IN THE ENZYMATIC OXYGENATION OF SULFOXIDE TO SULFONE PROMOTED BY A RECONSTITUTED SYSTEM WITH PURIFIED CYTOCHROME P-450
-
A kinetic study on enzymatic S-oxygenation of sulfoxides to sulfones was carried out by a reconstituted system with purified cytochrome P-450.A linear correlation observed between log(Vmax)'s and the one-electron oxidation potentials of sulfoxides suggests that the oxygenation of sulfoxides proceeds via one electron transfer process to the active "oxenoid" intermediate of the enzyme.

- A method for the conversion of sulfoximines to sulfones: Application to polymer-bound sulfoximines and to the synthesis of chiral sulfones
-
Reaction of N-alkyl, N-aryl, and N-H sulfoximines with m- chloroperbenzoic acid cleanly gives the corresponding sulfones in high yield. In the case of the cleavage of N-alkyl and N-arylsulfoximines, formation of the corresponding nitroso compounds as the other reaction product was proven. Starting from enantio- and diastereopure sulfoximines, a number of chiral sulfones, including the axially chiral sulfone 6 and the sulfonyl- functionalized homoallylic alcohol 8, have been prepared. Reaction of the enantiopure sulfoximine 30 with Merrifield resin gave the polymer-bound sulfoximine 32. Oxidative cleavage of 32 afforded the sulfone 16 in high yield. Deprotonation of the sulfoximine resin 32 and reaction of Li-32 with benzaldehyde and propanal furnished the β-hydroxysulfoximine resins 33a and 33b, respectively. Oxidative cleavage of 33a and 33b readily afforded the β- hydroxy sulfones 14a and 14b, respectively.

- Kinetics and mechanism of oxidation of aryl methyl sulfoxides with (salen)MnIII/H2O2 catalytic system
-
The kinetics of (salen)MnIII complexes-catalysed oxidation of aryl methyl sulfoxides with hydrogen peroxide in 80% acetonitrile-20% water solvent mixture at 25 °C has been followed spectrophotometrically. The reaction is first-order in (salen)MnIII, zero-order in hydrogen peroxide and fractional-order in sulfoxide. Also, it has been found that nitrogenous bases affect the oxidation, while free-radical inhibitor does not. However, an increase in the water content of the solvent mixture causes an increase in the rate of reaction. Stoichiometry between H2O2 and sulfoxide has been found to be 1:1 and the product analysis confirms the formation of sulfone and the regeneration of (salen)MnIII complex. These observations have been well analyzed in favor of a Michaelis-Menten type mechanism, involving a manganese(III)-hydroperoxide complex as the reactive species. Using the derived rate law, the oxidant-substrate complex formation constant, K and the oxidant-substrate complex decomposition rate constant, k2 have been evaluated. The proposed mechanism has been well supported by electronic-oxidant and electronic-substrate effect studies.

- Picolinic acid promoted oxidative decarboxylation of phenylsulfinylacetic acid by Cr(VI)
-
The kinetics and mechanism of picolinic acid promoted reaction of phenylsulfinylacetic acid (PSAA) with Cr(VI) was carried out in aqueous acetonitrile medium under pseudo first order conditions. The reaction follows Michaelis-Menten type of kinetics with respect to PSAA. The catalytic activity by picolinic acid can be interpreted on the basis of the formation of a highly active oxidizing species, Cr(VI)-PA complex. The mechanism involves the formation of a termolecular complex, Cr(VI)-PA-PSAA by the nucleophilic attack of the sulfur atom of PSAA on chromium of Cr(VI)-PA complex in an equilibrium step followed by ligand coupling in a slow step. Electron releasing substituents in the phenyl ring of PSAA accelerate while electron withdrawing groups retard the reaction rate. The overall rate constants for the para- and meta-substituted PSAAs are found to correlate excellently with Hammett ó constants with a very low reaction constant, ρ.

- Electrochemical Formation and Activation of Hydrogen Peroxide from Water on Fluorinated Tin Oxide for Baeyer-Villiger Oxidation Reactions
-
The two-electron oxidation of water (2e-WOR) has been studied in the past as a possible method for the alternative preparation of hydrogen peroxide. Often, fluorinated tin oxide (FTO) is used as an anode and FTO itself was found also to be active for 2e-WOR. Because one use of H2O2is as an oxygen donor for Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of ketones catalyzed by tin compounds and materials, presently we were interested in studying the use of in situ formed H2O2for these reactions. First, the formation of H2O2was verified in an acetonitrile/water solvent in a 2e-WOR reaction, which is more efficient than a comparable reaction in water in terms of the H2O2concentration attained and faradaic efficiency at comparable potentials, that is, ~3 V vs SHE. Second, initial studies on oxygenation of reactive substrates such as sulfides showed normalized reaction rates (NRRs) for two-electron oxidation reactions that were about 3 times higher than the NRR for H2O2formation, indicating the formation of an active oxygen-donating or oxidizing species on the electrode surface prior to the formation and release of H2O2into solution. Third, the Baeyer-Villiger oxygenation of 2-adamantanone at 2.1 V versus SHE in acetonitrile/water showed both the formation of the expected lactone product and hydroxylation at both tertiary and secondary C-H bonds. Hydroxylation is most easily explained by the presence of hydroxyl radical species as supported by the formation of a spin adduct and its identification by electron paramagnetic resonance. However, the potential used, 2.1 V versus SHE, is an underpotential for the formation of a solvated hydroxyl radical in solution, thereby leading to the conclusion that surface-bound hydroxyl species, OH*, are those that are reactive for the apparent one-electron water oxygenation reaction. Fourth, it was shown that although H2O2can be thermally activated on FTO as a catalyst to a minor degree, electrochemical activation is by far more significant, leading to the use of FTO as an electrochemical catalyst for activation of H2O2for the Baeyer-Villiger oxygenation and also alkene epoxidation.

The versatility of the sulfonyl pyrrole unit is shown by generating a variety of products through chemical, electrochemical and photochemical pathways. Preliminary results on the direct functionalization of primary sulfonamides are also provided, which may lead to new modes of activation.

Herein, we report a general method for the synthesis of NH-sulfoximines and NH-sulfonimidamides through direct electrochemical oxidative catalysis involving an iodoarene(I)/iodoarene(III) redox couple. In addition, dibenzothiazines can be synthesized from [1,1′-biaryl]-2-sulfides under standard conditions. Notably, only a catalytic amount of iodoarene is required for the generation in situ of an active hypervalent iodine catalyst, which avoids the need for an excess of a hypervalent iodine reagent relative to conventional approaches. Moreover, this protocol features broad substrate scope and wide functional group tolerance, delivering the target compounds with good-to-excellent yields even for a scale of more than 10 g.

- Magneli-type tungsten oxide nanorods as catalysts for the selective oxidation of organic sulfides
-
Selective oxidation of thioethers is an important reaction to obtain sulfoxides as synthetic intermediates for applications in the chemical industry, medicinal chemistry and biology or the destruction of warfare agents. The reduced Magneli-type tungsten oxide WO3?xpossesses a unique oxidase-like activity which facilitates the oxidation of thioethers to the corresponding sulfoxides. More than 90% of the model system methylphenylsulfide could be converted to the sulfoxide with a selectivity of 98% at room temperature within 30 minutes, whereas oxidation to the corresponding sulfone was on a time scale of days. The concentration of the catalyst had a significant impact on the reaction rate. Reasonable catalytic effects were also observed for the selective oxidation of various organic sulfides with different substituents. The WO3?xnanocatalysts could be recycled at least 5 times without decrease in activity. We propose a metal oxide-catalyzed route based on the clean oxidant hydrogen peroxide. Compared to other molecular or enzyme catalysts the WO3?xsystem is a more robust redox-nanocatalyst, which is not susceptible to decomposition or denaturation under standard conditions. The unique oxidase-like activity of WO3?xcan be used for a wide range of applications in synthetic, environmental or medicinal chemistry.

- Alkylation of Nitropyridines via Vicarious Nucleophilic Substitution
-
Electrophilic nitropyridines react with sulfonyl-stabilized carbanions to give products of C-H alkylation via vicarious nucleophilic substitution. The process consists of formation of the Meisenheimer-type adduct followed by base-induced β-elimination of the sulfinic acid (e.g., PhSO2H). Mechanistic studies reveal that in the latter step alkyl substituent and adjacent nitro group tend to planarize for effective stabilization of benzyl anion, and thus, adduct of hindered isopropyl carbanion remains stable toward elimination for steric reasons.

A simple and sustainable synergistic catalytic protocol by interfacing nanomicelles and metal nanoparticles (MNPs) is reported for C-S coupling reactions in water. The sugar-based surfactant GluM was synthesized by introducing a PEG chain to stabilize MNPs and self-assembled to form nanomicelles. Cu2O nanoparticles were generated via in situ reduction of copper salt in an aqueous solution of the sugar-based surfactant. The nature of the interaction between nanomicelles and Cu2O nanoparticles was revealed by XPS, XRD, in situ IR, TEM, and 1H NMR. A broad substrate scope with moderate to excellent yields was documented and the recycling of the GluM/Cu aqueous mixture was surprising.

- On the important transition of sugar-based surfactant as a microreactor for C-S coupling in water: From micelle to vesicle
-
A reversible, temperature-induced micelle-to-vesicle transition of a sugar-based pseudogemini surfactant (C11D12) was employed for copper-catalyzed C-S coupling in water. The phase behavior and morphology of the C11D12 aqueous solution were investigated by DLS and cryo-TEM. The aggregates undergo a series of transitions upon increasing the temperature: spherical micelles were initially transformed into large vesicles, but they eventually transformed into smaller vesicles. The vesicular catalytic protocol accommodates an excellent substrate scope with moderate to high yields. The mechanisms of temperature-induced aggregate transition and vesicular catalysis were elucidated by experimental results and DFT calculations. It was revealed that the charge layer of the vesicle grants stronger nucleophilicity to the PhSO2-Cu-D12Ga intermediate. Furthermore, the aqueous reaction medium can be recycled and reused several times after easily separating the precipitated product.

New heterogeneous catalysts comprising of peroxidoniobium(V) complexes immobilized on amino acid grafted cross-linked poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) resin has been developed. Results of FTIR, Raman, NMR, XPS, XRD, EDX, SEM, BET, TGA, and elemental analysis confirmed the successful anchoring of triperoxidoniobium(V), [Nb(O2)3]? species to the host polymer via the pendant amino acid groups. The supported catalysts exhibited excellent performance in epoxidation of styrene and a range of cyclic and terpenic compounds under environmentally acceptable solvent-free condition, with aqueous H2O2 as oxidant. The catalytic protocols provided excellent conversion to the desired epoxide (up to 100%) with selectivity > 99%, TON as high as 1000, and high H2O2 utilization efficiency (92–97%). Moreover, the catalysts efficiently facilitated chemoselective solvent-free oxidation of a variety of thioethers to sulfones at room temperature. Simple operational strategy, easy recyclability for multiple reaction cycles with the consistent activity-selectivity profile are the additional significant attributes of the developed catalytic processes.

The following facts point out a nucleophilic character of the peroxo species responsible for the superior formation of sulfones: (1) nucleophilic parameter XNu = 0.92 in the oxidation of thianthrene 5-oxide and its decrease upon addition of acid; (2) sulfone to sulfoxide ratio of 24 in the competitive oxidation of methyl phenyl sulfoxide and p-Br-methyl phenyl sulfide; (3) significantly lower initial rates of methyl phenyl sulfide oxidation relative to methyl phenyl sulfoxide (kS/kSO = 0.05); and (4) positive slope ρ = +0.42 of the Hammett plot for competitive oxidation of p-substituted aryl methyl sulfoxides. Nucleophilic activation of H2O2 on Zr-MOF is also manifested by their capability of catalyzing epoxidation of electron-deficient C═C bonds in α,β-unsaturated ketones accompanied by oxidation of acetonitrile solvent. Kinetic modeling on methyl phenyl sulfoxide oxidation coupled with adsorption studies supports a mechanism that involves the interaction of H2O2 with Zr sites with the formation of a nucleophilic oxidizing species and release of water followed by oxygen atom transfer from the nucleophilic oxidant to sulfoxide that competes with water for Zr sites. The nucleophilic peroxo species coexists with an electrophilic one, ZrOOH, capable of oxygen atom transfer to nucleophilic sulfides. The predominance of nucleophilic activation of H2O2 over electrophilic one is, most likely, ensured by the presence of weak basic sites in Zr-MOFs identified by FTIR spectroscopy of adsorbed CDCl3 and quantified by adsorption of isobutyric acid.

-
The zeolite imidazolate framework ZIF-8 exhibits superior catalytic performance in the epoxidation of the electron-deficient CC bond in menadione using aqueous hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant. The catalysis has a truly heterogeneous nature and the framework structure remains intact. This is the first example of oxidation catalysis with ZIF-8.

- Selectivity switch in the aerobic oxygenation of sulfides photocatalysed by visible-light-responsive decavanadate
-
Nanometre-sized metal oxides are promising species for the development of visible-light-responsive photocatalysts for the selective transformation of organic functional groups. In this article, we report that decavanadate ([V10O28]6-, V10) behaved as an efficient visible-light-responsive photocatalyst in the product-selective oxygenation of sulfides achieved using O2 (1 atm) as the green oxidant. In particular, we revealed that visible-light-responsive photocatalysis of V10 showed remarkable activity for the oxygenation of structurally diverse sulfides to form the corresponding sulfones using O2 in methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). Furthermore, by simply adding water to the reaction mixture, the product selectivity of sulfide oxygenation can be significantly switched toward the production of sulfoxides, without concomitant loss of photocatalytic activity. Based on experimental evidence, we inferred the following mechanistic steps for this photocatalytic system: the aerobic oxygenation of sulfides to form the corresponding sulfoxides initiated by a visible-light-induced photoredox reaction of V10. As for the formation of sulfones, MEK-derived peroxide species as the co-catalysts are probably involved in the oxygenation of sulfoxides to sulfones. The selectivity switch of the V10-photocatalysed reaction brought about by water addition is most likely achieved by suppressing the formation of MEK-derived peroxide species. This journal is

- The mutagenesis of a single site for enhancing or reversing the enantio- or regiopreference of cyclohexanone monooxygenases
-
The mutagenesis of a "second sphere"switch residue of CHMOAcineto could control its enantio- and regiopreference. Replacing phenylalanine (F) at position 277 of CHMOAcineto into larger tryptophan (W) enabled a significant enhancement of enantio- or regioselectivity toward structurally diverse substrates, moreover, a complete reversal of enantio- or regiopreference was realized by mutating F277 into a range of smaller amino acids (A/C/D/E/G/H/I/K/L/M/N/P/Q/R/S/T/V).

- Effect of Ligand Fields on the Reactivity of O2-Activating Iron(II)-Benzilate Complexes of Neutral N5 Donor Ligands
-
Three new iron(II)-benzilate complexes [(N4Py)FeII(benzilate)]ClO4 (1), [(N4PyMe2)FeII(benzilate)]ClO4 (2) and [(N4PyMe4)FeII(benzilate)]ClO4 (3) of neutral pentadentate nitrogen donor ligands have been isolated and characterized to study their dioxygen reactivity. Single-crystal X-ray structures reveal a mononuclear six-coordinate iron(II) center in each case, where benzilate binds to the iron center in monodentate mode via one carboxylate oxygen. Introduction of methyl groups in the 6-positions of the pyridine rings makes the N4PyMe2 and N4PyMe4 ligand fields weaker compared to that of the parent N4Py ligand. All the complexes (1–3) react with dioxygen to decarboxylate the coordinated benzilate to benzophenone quantitatively. The decarboxylation is faster for the complex of the more sterically hindered ligand and follows the order 3>2>1. The complexes display oxygen atom transfer reactivity to thioanisole and also exhibit hydrogen atom transfer reactions with substrates containing weak C?H bonds. Based on interception studies with external substrates, labelling experiments and Hammett analysis, a nucleophilic iron(II)-hydroperoxo species is proposed to form upon two-electron reductive activation of dioxygen by each iron(II)-benzilate complex. The nucleophilic oxidants are converted to the corresponding electrophilic iron(IV)-oxo oxidant upon treatment with a protic acid. The high-spin iron(II)-benzilate complex with the weakest ligand field results in the formation of a more reactive iron-oxygen oxidant.

- Synthesis method of sulfone compound
-
The invention discloses a synthesis method of a sulfone compound. The synthesis method specifically comprises the following steps: taking a compound shown as formula (I) as a reaction raw material, Ru/C as a catalyst, NaIO4 as an oxidant and water as a solvent, reacting at room temperature, and after the reaction is finished, carrying out after-treatment on an obtained reaction solution to obtainthe sulfone compound shown as formula (II), wherein the use amount of Ru/C is 0.5-2% of the molar amount of the compound shown in the formula (I) in terms of the molar amount of Ru; the molar amount of NaIO4 is 50-150% of the molar amount of the compound represented by formula (I). Under normal temperature conditions, cheap ruthenium carbon is oxidized by sodium periodate to generate ruthenium tetroxide, so that a thioether compound is further oxidized to synthesize the sulfone compound, the yield is close to 100 %, the subsequent treatment is simple, and a pure product can be obtained withoutcomplex separation and purification. Therefore, the method is more efficient, faster, more environmentally friendly and milder.

- Cobalt Single-Atom-Intercalated Molybdenum Disulfide for Sulfide Oxidation with Exceptional Chemoselectivity
-
The identification of chemoselective oxidation process en route to fine chemicals and specialty chemicals is a long-standing pursuit in chemical synthesis. A vertically structured, cobalt single atom-intercalated molybdenum disulfide catalyst (Co1-in-MoS2) is developed for the chemoselective transformation of sulfides to sulfone derivatives. The single-atom encapsulation alters the electron structure of catalyst owing to confinement effect and strong metal–substrate interaction, thus enhancing adsorption of sulfides and chemoselective oxidation at the edge sites of MoS2 to achieve excellent yields of up to 99% for 34 examples. The synthetic scopes can be extended to sulfide-bearing alkenes, alkynes, aldehydes, ketones, boronic esters, and amines derivatives as a toolbox for the synthesis of high-value, multifunctional sulfones and late-stage functionalization of pharmaceuticals, e.g., Tamiflu. The synthetic utility of cobalt single atom-intercalated MoS2, together with its reusability, scalability, and simplified purification process, renders it promising for industrial productions.

A simple, efficient, and selective oxidation under flow conditions of sulfides into their corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones is reported herein, using as a catalyst perselenic acid generated in situ by the oxidation of selenium (IV) oxide in a diluted aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide as the final oxidant. The scope of the proposed methodology was investigated using aryl alkyl sulfides, aryl vinyl sulfides, and dialkyl sulfides as substrates, evidencing, in general, a good applicability. The scaled-up synthesis of (methylsulfonyl)benzene was also demonstrated, leading to its gram-scale preparation.

- Copper(ii)-containing tungstotellurates(vi): Syntheses, structures and their catalytic performances in selective oxidation of thioethers
-
We report the syntheses and structures of two new copper(ii)-containing tungstotellurates(vi) Na12[TeVI2W8O38Cu2(H2O)2]·7H2O (Te2W8Cu2) and Na6[TeVIW6O24Cu(NH2CH2CO2)2]·6H2O (TeW6Cu). The two compounds were synthesized by a simple one-pot method and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), powder XRD, FT-IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis in the solid state. Furthermore, their catalytic properties for the selective oxidation of thioethers were also studied systematically. The catalytic experiment results indicate that the tungstotellurate(vi) Te2W8Cu2 is an effective heterogeneous catalyst for the selective oxidation of thioethers to sulfoxides or sulfones by an H2O2 oxidant at room temperature. Under the ambient conditions, Te2W8Cu2 can convert 99percent of methyl(phenyl)sulfane to sulfoxides or sulfones with 96percent or 99percent selectivity, respectively, and the utilization rate of H2O2 is up to 80percent. Furthermore, Te2W8Cu2 as a heterogeneous catalyst is stable in the reaction and could be reused at least five cycles with conserved activity.

- Solid-state rearrangement of sandwich-type polyoxometalate-dopamine nanohybrid to the nanoflower Keggin polyoxometalate: synthesis, characterization, and catalytic efficiency
-
Sponge-like inorganic-organic nanohybrid consisting of sandwich-type polyoxometalate of [P2W18Ce3(H2O)2O71]12? (P2W18Ce3) and dopamine (DA) was fabricated by a simple procedure. The DA/P2W18Ce3 sponge-like nanohybrid is turned into a nanoflower by calcination at 300 °C. The results showed a structure rearrangement of sandwich-type polyoxometalate to the Keggin-type polyoxometalate along with this morphology change. The nanomaterials were fully characterized by scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, texture analysis (BET), and X-ray powder diffraction (XPRD). The DA/P2W18Ce3 sponge-like nanohybrid and the Keggin nanoflower showed efficiency toward degradation of methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RhB). Moreover, the catalytic activity of the Keggin nanoflower was examined in the oxidation of sulfides to sulfones with H2O2 as oxidant in water at room temperature. The catalyst was reused at least four times without loss of its catalytic activity.

- Oxidation of aromatic sulfides with molecular oxygen: Controllable synthesis of sulfoxides or sulfones

The recent development of selective oxidation of aromatic sulfides with molecular oxygen was highlighted. The sulfoxides and sulfones could be obtained by simply switching the reaction media, i.e., bis(2-butoxyethyl)ether (BBE) or poly(ethylene glycol)dimethyl ether (PEGDME). The application of the high-boiling-point polyether as an initiator and green media can eliminate the need of large quantities of additives and volatile solvents. This strategy represents an economic and eco-friendly method that could find potential applications.

We report a facile synthesis of sulfones, β-keto sulfones, and sulfonamides from vinyl sulfones via an addition-elimination sequence where in situ generation of nucleophilic sulfinate ion is mediated by cyanide. The use vinyl sulfones renders high selectivity for S -alkylation to produce sulfones in high yields. In the presence of N -bromosuccinimide, primary and secondary amines underwent sulfonamide formation. A preliminary mechanistic study showed the formation of acrylonitrile as an innocent byproduct, without interfering with the desired reaction pathway while generating a sulfinate nucleophile.

- Manganese-Catalyzed Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Coupling of Alcohols with Sulfones: A Tool to Access Highly Substituted Vinyl Sulfones
-
The development of first-row-transition-metal catalysts that can match with the reactivities of the noble metals is considered to be challenging yet very much a desirable goal in homogeneous catalysis. It has become even more fascinating to develop processes where these metals show a unique reactivity and selectivity than their higher congeners. Herein, we report on the catalytic activity of a pincer complex of the abundant earth metal manganese for an unprecedented acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of alkyl sulfones with alcohols. Thus, highly functionalized vinyl sulfones were obtained in moderate to good yields. Both benzylic and aliphatic alcohols could be utilized, and several functional groups including bromides and iodides are tolerated under the reaction conditions. The reaction is environmentally benign, producing dihydrogen and water as byproducts. Preliminary mechanistic experiments involving kinetic, deuterium-labeling, and NMR experiments were performed.

- Enhanced Activity and Substrate Specificity by Site-Directed Mutagenesis for the P450 119 Peroxygenase Catalyzed Sulfoxidation of Thioanisole
-
P450 119 peroxygenase was found to catalyze the sulfoxidation of thioanisole and the sulfonation of sulfoxide in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) for the first time with turnover rates of 1549 min?1 and 196 min?1 respectively. Several mutants were designed to improve the peroxygenation activity and thioanisole specificity by site-directed mutagenesis. The F153G/T213G mutant gave an increase of sulfoxide yield and a decrease of sulfone yield. Moreover the S148P/I161T/K199E/T214V mutant and the K199E mutant with acidic Glu residue contributed to improving the product ratio of sulfoxide to sulfone. Addition of short-alkyl-chain organic acids to the P450 119 peroxygenase-catalyzed sulfur oxidation of thioanisole was investigated. Octanoic acid was found to induce a preferred sulfoxidation of thioanisole catalyzed by the F153G/T213G mutant to give approximately 2.4-fold increase in turnover rate with a kcat value of 3687 min?1 relative to that of the wild-type, and by the F153G mutant to give the R-sulfoxide up to 30 % ee. The experimental control and the proposed mechanism for the P450 119 peroxygenase-catalyzed sulfoxidation of thioanisole in the presence of octanoic acid suggested that octanoic acid could partially occupy the substrate pocket; meanwhile the F153G mutation could enhance the substrate specificity, which could lead to efficiently regulate the spatial orientation of thioanisole and facilitate the formation of Compound I. This is the most effective catalytic system for the P450 119 peroxygenase-catalyzed sulfoxidation of thioanisole.

A collection of fusion biocatalysts has been generated that can be used for self-sufficient oxygenations or ketone reductions. These biocatalysts were created by fusing a Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase (cyclohexanone monooxygenase from Thermocrispum municipale: TmCHMO) or an alcohol dehydrogenase (alcohol dehydrogenase from Lactobacillus brevis: LbADH) with three different cofactor regeneration enzymes (formate dehydrogenase from Burkholderia stabilis: BsFDH; glucose dehydrogenase from Sulfolobus tokodaii: StGDH, and phosphite dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas stutzeri: PsPTDH). Their tolerance against various organic solvents, including a deep eutectic solvent, and their activity and selectivity with a variety of substrates have been studied. Excellent conversions and enantioselectivities were obtained, demonstrating that these engineered fusion enzymes can be used as biocatalysts for the synthesis of (chiral) valuable compounds.

Anchoring of peroxotitanium (pTi) species to linear water-soluble acrylic acid based polymers, poly(sodium acrylate) (PA) and poly(sodium methacrylate) (PMA) led to the successful synthesis of a pair of new, water-tolerant and recyclable catalysts of the type [Ti2(O2)2O2(OH)2]4-—L (L = PA or PMA), highly effective in chemoselective sulfoxidation of organic sulfides with 30% H2O2 in aqueous medium at ambient temperature. The catalytic protocol is high yielding (TOF up to 11,280 h?1), operationally simple as well as environmentally clean and safe, being free from halide, or any other toxic auxiliaries. The catalysts are sufficiently stable to afford easy recyclability for at least 10 consecutive reaction cycles of sulfoxidation with consistent activity selectivity profile. Oxidation of dibenzothiophene (DBT) to respective high purity sulfoxide or sulfone could also be accomplished using the same catalysts by variation of reaction conditions.

- Diastereoselective Synthesis and Catalytic Activity of Two Chiral cis-Dioxidomolybdenum(VI) Complexes
-
Two enantiomerically pure chiral dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complexes (1 and 2) of the type [MoO2L] (L = dianionic, tetradentate ONNO-ligand) were synthesized and investigated in enantioselective oxidation reactions. The solid-state structures of complex 1 and 2, determined via single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed two fundamentally different coordination geometries: a C1-symmetric cis-β isomer (Λ-1), and a C2-symmetric cis-α isomer (Δ-2). In both cases, only one of the two possible helical enantiomers (Λ- or Δ-helix) was formed. The complexes were examined as precatalysts in the epoxidation of the challenging prochiral substrate trans-stilbene, using either tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) or cumyl hydroperoxide (CHP) as oxidants. The asymmetric cis-β complex 1 was found to be significantly more active in the epoxidation than its cis-α counterpart 2, asymmetric induction was, however, negligible for both complexes. The complexes were also tested in catalytic enantioselective sulfoxidation reactions where chiral induction could be achieved, albeit small. The observed putative molybdenum oxido-peroxido intermediate 1-O2 could be identified as an important precomplex before formation of the active catalyst in sulfoxidation.

- Bioinspired Olefin cis-Dihydroxylation and Aliphatic C-H Bond Hydroxylation with Dioxygen Catalyzed by a Nonheme Iron Complex
-
A mononuclear iron(II)-α-hydroxy acid complex [(TpPh,Me)FeII(benzilate)] (TpPh,Me = hydrotris(3-phenyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl)borate) of a facial tridentate ligand has been isolated and characterized to explore its catalytic efficiency for aerial oxidation of organic substrates. In the reaction between the iron(II)-benzilate complex and O2, the metal-coordinated benzilate is stoichiometrically converted to benzophenone with concomitant reduction of dioxygen on the iron center. Based on the results from interception experiments and labeling studies, different iron-oxygen oxidants are proposed to generate in situ in the reaction pathway depending upon the absence or presence of an external additive (such as protic acid or Lewis acid). The five-coordinate iron(II) complex catalytically cis-dihydroxylates olefins and oxygenates the C-H bonds of aliphatic substrates using O2 as the terminal oxidant. The iron(II) complex exhibits better catalytic activity in the presence of a Lewis acid.
