- Isotopic Fractionation Factor of the Hydrogen-Bonded Complex AcO(1-)...(HOAc)n and Kinetic and Equilibrium Solvent Isotope Effects on Reactions of Acetate Ion in Acetic Acid
-
A value of φ 0.58+/-0.05 has been obtained for the deuterium fractionation factor of the hydrogen-bonded complex AcO(1-)...(HOAc)n from (1)H n.m.r. studies of solutions of potassium acetate in AcOH and 97percent AcOD-3percent AcOH.The result is used to account for the kinetic solvent isotope effect 0.66+/-0.10 measured for formation of acetic anhydride from 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl acetate in AcOH and AcOD in the presence of potassium acetate.The equilibrium solvent isotope effect on complex formation between 2,4,6-trinitrophenol and acetate ion in AcOH and 97percent AcOD-3percent AcOH KAcOH/KAcOD 0.83+/-0.1, leads to a value φ ca. 0.7 for the complex (1-).

- Method for promoting acylation of amine or alcohol by carbon dioxide
-
The invention relates to a method for promoting acylation of amine or alcohol by carbon dioxide, which comprises the following steps of: mixing an amine compound, carboxylate or thiocarboxylate compound and a reaction solvent under the action of carbon dioxide, and reacting to obtain an amide compound, or under the action of carbon dioxide, mixing the alcohol compound, the thiocarboxylate compound and the reaction solvent [gamma]-valerolactone, and reacting to obtain the ester compound. According to the invention, under the promotion action of carbon dioxide, carboxylate or thiocarboxylate is used as an acylation reagent, and amine and alcohol are converted into amide and ester compounds in the absence of a transition metal catalyst, so that acylation reagents such as acyl chloride or anhydride with irritation and corrosivity are avoided; and the method has the advantages of simple operation, mild reaction conditions, high tolerance of substrate functional groups, strong applicability and high yield, and provides an efficient, reliable and economical preparation method for synthesis of amide and ester compounds.

- Direct Acetoxylation of Arenes
-
Acetoxylation of arenes is an important reaction and an unmet need in chemistry. We report a metal-free, direct acetoxylation reaction using sodium nitrate under an anhydrous environment of trifluoroacetic acid, acetic acid, and acetic anhydride. Arenes (31 examples), with oxidation potentials (Eox, in V vs SCE) lower than benzene (2.48 V), were acetoxylated with good yields and regioselectivity. A stepwise, single electron-transfer mechanism is proposed.

- Novel naphthyl based 1,2,4-trioxanes: Synthesis and in vivo efficacy in the Plasmodium yoelii nigeriensis in Swiss mice
-
A new series of 1,2,4-trioxanes 9a1-a4, 9b1-b4, 10–13 and 9c1-c4 were synthesized and evaluated against multidrug-resistant Plasmodium yoelii nigeriensis in Swiss mice via oral and intramuscular (i.m.) routes. Adamantane-based trioxane 9b4, the most active compound of the series, provided 100% protection to the infected mice at the dose 48 mg/kg × 4 days and 100% clearance of parasitemia at the dose 24 mg/kg × 4 days via oral route. Adamantane-based trioxane 9b4, is twice active than artemisinin. We have also studied the photooxygenation behaviour of allylic alcohols 6a-b (3-(4-alkoxynaphthyl)-but-2-ene-1-ols) and 6c (3-[4-(tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-naphthalen-1-yl]-but-2-en-1-ol). Being behaving as dienes, they furnished corresponding endoperoxides, while behaving as allylic alcohols, they yielded β-hydroxyhydroperoxides. All the endoperoxides (7a-c) and β-hydroxyhydroperoxides (8a-c) have been separately elaborated to the corresponding 1,2,4-trioxanes, except from endoperoxide 7c. It is worthy to note that TBDMS protected naphthoyl endoperoxide 7c unable to deliver 1,2,4-trioxane, which demonstrated the strength of the O-Si bond is not easy to cleave under acidic condition.

- Steric effect of NHC ligands in Pd(II)–NHC-catalyzed non-directed C–H acetoxylation of simple arenes
-
Although there has been a lot of progress in oxidative arene C–H functionalization reactions catalyzed by Pd(II/IV) system, the non-directed, site-selective functionalization of arene molecules is still challenging. It has been established that ligands play a pivotal role in controlling rate- as well as selectivity-determining step in a catalytic cycle involving well-defined metal-ligand bonding. N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have had a tremendous contribution in the recent extraordinary success of achieving high reactivity and excellent selectivity in many catalytic processes including cross-coupling and olefin-metathesis reactions. However, the immense potential of these NHC ligands in improving site-selectivity of non-directed catalytic C–H functionalization reactions of simple arenes is yet to be realized, where overriding the electronic bias on deciding selectivity is a burdensome task. The presented work demonstrated an initiative step in this regard. Herein, a series of well-defined discrete [Pd(NHCR′R)(py)I2] complexes with systematically varied degree of spatial congestion at the Pd centre, exerted through the R and R’ substituents on the NHC ligand, were explored in controlling the activity as well as the site-selectivity of non-directed acetoxylation of representative monosubstituted and disubstituted simple arenes (such as toluene, iodobenzene and bromobenzene, naphthalene and 1,2-dichlorobenzene). The resulting best yields were found to be 75% for toluene and 65% for bromobenzene with [Pd(NHCMePh)(py)I2], 75% for iodobenzene and 79% for naphthalene with [Pd(NHCMeMe)(py)I2], and 41% for 1,2-dichlorobenzene with [Pd(NHCCyCy)(py)I2]. Most importantly, with increasing the bulkiness of the NHC ligand in the complexes, the selectivity of the distal C-acetoxylated products in comparison to the proximal ones, was enhanced to a great extent in all cases. Considering the vast library of NHC ligands, this study underscores the future opportunity to develop more strategies to improve the activity and the crucial site-selectivity of C–H functionalization reactions in simple as well as complex organic molecules.

- Photo/Thermal Dual Responses in Aqueous-Soluble Copolymers Containing 1-Naphthyl Methacrylate
-
Photoresponsive polymers capable of luminescence switching are attracting significant interest due to their potential application in fluorescence patterning, bioimaging, optical data storage, and anti-counterfeiting. In this work, we have developed aqueous-soluble copolymers of 1-naphthyl methacrylate and oligo(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate [P(1-NMA-co-OEGMA)] that undergo a significant shift in fluorescence emission wavelength after UV irradiation. Irradiation of the 1-naphthyl methacrylate moieties results in the photo-Fries rearrangement to form hydroxy aryl ketones, which exhibit strong emission at 475 nm through excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) and excited-state proton transfer (ESPT). The resultant shift in fluorescence emission maximum from 338 to 475 nm after rearrangement can potentially be exploited for fluorescence patterning. Furthermore, the copolymers are thermally sensitive in aqueous solutions. The lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the copolymers depends on the content of hydrophobic 1-naphthyl methacrylate units; the photo-Fries rearrangement results in a more polar structure, shifting the LCST to a higher temperature. Of note, the temperature-triggered volume phase transition of copolymer hydrogels selectively ″switches off″ fluorescence arising from the ESPT mechanism, while the ESIPT emission is unaffected. We also demonstrate that films formed by coating the copolymers onto various substrates can be selectively patterned to form gradients in fluorescence intensity. These versatile P(1-NMA-co-OEGMA) copolymers are simple to prepare at low cost, demonstrate effective photoswitching, and have excellent water solubility, thus ensuring potential applications in a number of important areas.

- Copper-Catalyzed Acetylation of Electron-Rich Phenols and Anilines
-
An approach has been developed for the copper-catalyzed acetylation of phenols and anilines with potassium thioacetate as an acetylating reagent. Although only electron-rich phenols and anilines are compatible with this protocol, the reaction can provide moderate to high yields under mild conditions. Compared with other acetylating reagents, the current reagent has certain advantages, such as its low cost, easy availability, stability, insensitivity to water or air, and ease of storage.

-
4-Imidazol-1-yl-butane-1-sulfonic acid (ImBu-SO3H) has been successfully synthetized and fully characterized by FT-IR and high-resolution NMR spectroscopy (1H, 13C). The “plausible” alternative structures of ImBu-SO3H were discussed on the basis of its NMR data. The ionic liquid showed interesting dual solvent-catalyst property, which was studied experimentally for the acetylation of a variety of functionalized alcohols, phenols, thiols, amines and α-tocopherol (α-CTP) as the most active form of vitamin E with acetic anhydride and which provided good yields within a short reaction time. ImBu-SO3H was successfully recycled by product extraction with an average recovered yield of 82% for 5 subsequent runs. The catalytic activity of the recycled ImBu-SO3H showed almost no loss even after five consecutive runs.

- Werner transition-metal complex (WTMC)-mediated mild and efficient chemo-selective acylation of phenols and anilines under solvent-free condition
-
Werner-type transition-metal complexes (WTMC) such as [Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2, Cu[(NH3)4]SO4, Mn(acac)3, Ni[(NH3)6]Cl2, Ni[(en)3]S2O3, and Hg[Co(SCN)4] efficiently promote the chemoselective acetylation of phenols and anilines under solvent-free condition. The results of this study clearly shows that the optimal condition for the acetylation of anilines/phenols (1 mmol) (2a–r) with acetic anhydride (1.2 mmol) in the presence of WTMC (1 mmol) and two drops of H3PO4 on heating for 10 min under solvent-free condition gives the corresponding acetanilides/phenyl acetate (3a–r) in good to excellent yield. Furthermore, the method is simple, efficient, chemoselective, and eco-friendly under solvent-free condition for the acetylation of anilines and phenols promoted by WTMC by using acetic anhydrate as the acetylating agent. The simple preparation of the catalyst, easy procedure of the acetylation reaction, and simple work-up indicate the importance of WTMC for such reactions.

- Copper-Catalyzed C-S Bond Formation via the Cleavage of C-O Bonds in the Presence of S8 as the Sulfur Source
-
Useful and applicable methods for one-pot and odorless synthesis of unsymmetrical and symmetrical diaryl sulfides via C-O bond activation are presented. First, a new efficient procedure for the synthesis of unsymmetrical sulfides using the cross-coupling reaction of phenolic esters such as acetates, tosylates, and triflates and with arylboronic acid or triphenyltin chloride as the coupling partners is reported. Depending on the reaction, S 8 /KF or S 8 /NaO t -Bu system is found to be an effective source of sulfur in the presence of copper salts and in poly(ethylene glycol) as a green solvent. Then, the synthesis of symmetrical diaryl sulfides from phenolic compounds by using S 8 as the sulfur source and NaO t -Bu in anhydrous DMF at 120 °C under N 2 is described. By these protocols, the synthesis of a variety of unsymmetrical and symmetrical sulfides become easier than the available protocols in which thiols and aryl halides are directly used for the preparation of the sulfides.

- Asymmetric Oxidative Cycloetherification of Naphtholic Alcohols
-
The catalytic, enantioselective oxidative cyclization of naphthol-derived carboxylic acids mediated by chiral hypervalent iodine reagents has been studied extensively in the recent past, but analogous reactions of non-carboxylic substrates are yet unknown. This paper describes a catalytic, enantioselective, hypervalent iodine-promoted oxidative cycloetherification reaction of naphtholic alcohols. The new process relies on a variant of the Uyanik–Ishihara catalyst, in which the stereogenic centers have been relocated closer to the iodine atom. The new catalyst design affords optical yields comparable to those available with Uyanik–Ishihara iodides, but chemical yields are sensibly higher, at least with the tests substrates. An even more problematic reaction is the catalytic, enantioselective oxidative cyclization of naphtholic sulfonamides. In this case, the new catalyst affords significantly higher optical inductions than Uyanik–Ishihara iodides. The kinetic resolution of particular naphtholic alcohols is demonstrated. The absolute configuration of a numver of enantioenriched compounds obtained in this study was ascertained by X-ray diffractometry.

- Doping of copper (I) oxide onto a solid support as a recyclable catalyst for acetylation of amines/alcohols/phenols and synthesis of trisubstituted imidazole
-
A study of copper-mediated C-heteroatom especially C-N and C-O bond formations using simpler methodologies has been carried out. In the present work, acetylation of various substrates such as amines, phenols and alcohols; synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazole is done using simple and easily available starting materials. Copper (I) oxide was synthesized in situ by the reduction of Fehling's solution with glucose followed by its anchoring onto different supports like silica, HAP, basic alumina and cellulose. Comparison and contrasts between the reactivity of copper (I) oxide supported onto different supports for these reactions are made. The reactivity of copper (I) oxide seems to be largely dependent on the nature of support and the most active catalyst for a particular reaction was further characterized by different spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR, XRD, TGA, XPS, SEM, TEM and AAS. The catalysts were found to be stable, easily recyclable without any significant loss in activity. Graphical abstract: Applications of solid supported copper (I) oxides (where solid support is silica, HAP, cellulose and basic alumina) are studied for various organic transformations with special emphasis on C-N and C-O bond formation reactions.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Stable C-O linkages are generally unreactive in cross-coupling reactions which mostly employ more electrophilic halides or activated esters (triflates, tosylates). Acetates are cheap and easily accessible electrophiles but have not been used in cross-couplings because the strong C-O bond and high propensity to engage in unwanted acetylation and deprotonation. Reported herein is a selective iron-catalyzed cross-coupling of diverse alkenyl acetates, and it operates under mild reaction conditions (0 C, 2 h) with a ligand-free catalyst (1-2 mol%). Iron clad: Acetates are underutilized electrophiles in metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions because of the strong alkenyl C-O bond and their propensity to engage in unwanted reactions. Combination of a ligand-free low-valent Fe catalyst with nucleophilic organomagnesium reagents, low temperature, and short reaction times results in highly selective cross-couplings with alkenyl acetates.

-
A ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite was prepared from metal nitrates and tetraethyl orthosilicate by the sol-gel process, and characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, transmission electron microscopy, and N2 adsorption-desorption measurements. The nanocomposite was tested as a heterogeneous catalyst for the acetylation of alcohols, phenols, and amines under solvent-free conditions. Under optimized conditions, efficient acetylation of these substrates with acetic anhydride over the ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite was obtained. Acetylation of anilines and primary aliphatic amines proceeded rapidly at room temperature, while the reaction time was longer for the acetylation of alcohols and phenols, showing that an amine NH2 group can be selectively acetylated in the presence of alcoholic or phenolic OH groups. The catalyst can be reused without obvious loss of catalytic activity. The catalytic activity of the ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite was higher than that of pure ZnAl2O4. The method gives high yields, and is clean, cost effective, compatible with substrates having other functional groups and it is suitable for practical organic synthesis.

- Sol-gel derived LaFeO3/SiO2 nanocomposite: Synthesis, characterization and its application as a new, green and recoverable heterogeneous catalyst for the efficient acetylation of amines, alcohols and phenols
-
LaFeO3/SiO2 nanocomposite was synthesized by the sol-gel process from metal nitrates and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as the SiO2 source. The nanocomposite product was characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM, and surface area measurements and was used as a heterogeneous catalyst for the efficient acetylation of amines, alcohols and phenols to the corresponding acetates using acetic anhydride under solvent-free conditions. Among the various substrates, acetylation of amines was preceded rapidly, so that an amine group could be selectively acetylated in the presence of alcoholic or phenolic hydroxyl groups by the appropriate choice of reaction time. The catalyst can also be reused several times without the loss of activity. In addition, the catalytic activity of the LaFeO3/SiO2 nanocomposite was higher than that of the pure LaFeO3 nanoparticles. The method is high yielding, clean, cost effective, compatible with the substrates having other functional groups and very suitable for the practical organic synthesis.

-
A novel, efficient, heterogeneous, and reusable multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), functionalized with phosphonic acid (MWCNTs-C-PO 3H2) has been synthesized. The synthesized CNTs were characterized using some electron microscopic techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), and also some thermal and spectroscopic methods such as thermogravimetry (TG). The nitrogen adsorption behavior of the MWCNTs-C-PO3H2 catalyst was evaluated using the TG instrumentation system at 25°C. The catalyst was applied successfully for highly efficient and selective acetylation of alcohols, phenols, thiols and aromatic amines with acetic anhydride at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. The reusability of the catalyst was checked and the recovered catalyst was reused for five runs without significant loss in activity.

- Palladium-catalyzed acetoxylation of arenes by novel sulfinyl n-heterocyclic carbene ligand complexes
-
A series of novel ligands based on N-heterocyclic carbene and sulfoxide functionalities have been prepared and characterized. Pd(II) complexes have been synthesized by transmetalation from the corresponding NHC-Ag derivatives, and their behavior as catalysts has been studied in arene C-H bond oxidative activation. Studies conducted toward the elucidation of the reaction mechanism of the acetoxylation suggest a C-H activation step at Pd(IV) rather than Pd(II) intermediates.

- Iron(III) tosylate catalyzed acylation of alcohols, phenols, and aldehydes
-
Iron(III) p-toluenesulfonate (tosylate) is an efficient catalyst for acetylation of alcohols, phenols, and aldehydes. The acetylation of 1° and 2° alcohols, diols, and phenols proceeded smoothly with 2.0 mol % of catalyst. However, the reaction worked well with only a few 3° alcohols. The methodology was also applicable to the synthesis of a few benzoate esters but required the use of 5.0 mol % catalyst. Aldehydes could also be converted into the corresponding 1,1-diesters (acylals) under the reaction conditions. Iron(III) tosylate is an inexpensive, and easy to handle, commercially available catalyst.

- New porphyrin-polyoxometalate hybrid materials: Synthesis, characterization and investigation of catalytic activity in acetylation reactions
-
New hybrid complexes based on covalent interaction between 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-aminophenyl)porphyrinatozinc(ii) and 5,10,15,20- tetrakis(4-aminophenyl)porphyrinatotin(iv) chloride, and a Lindqvist-type polyoxometalate, Mo6O192-, were prepared. These new porphyrin-polyoxometalate hybrid materials were characterized by 1H NMR, FT IR and UV-Vis spectroscopic methods and cyclic voltammetry. These spectro- and electrochemical studies provided several spectral data for synthesis of these compounds. Cyclic voltammetry showed the influence of the polyoxometalate on the redox process of the porphyrin ring. The catalytic activity of tin(iv)porphyrin-hexamolybdate hybrid material was investigated in the acetylation of alcohols and phenols with acetic anhydride. The reusability of this catalyst was also investigated.

- Amorphous carbon-silica composites bearing sulfonic acid as solid acid catalysts for the chemoselective protection of aldehydes as 1,1-diacetates and for N-, O- and S-acylations
-
Amorphous carbon-silica composites bearing sulfonic acid derived from inexpensive natural organic compounds (glucose, maltose, cellulose, chitosan and starch) were prepared by partial carbonization followed by sulfonation and their catalytic activity was evaluated for the protection of aldehydes as 1,1-diacetates and for N-, O- and S-acylations under solvent-free conditions. Different biomaterials have been chosen, with a view to select the most active solid acid catalyst. Carbon-silica composites were characterized by FTIR, XRD and elemental analysis. Sulfonated carbon-silica composite derived from starch was found to be the most active and could be recycled for several runs without loss of significant activity. It was also characterized by TGA, SEM and TEM.

- Comparisons of O-acylation and Friedel-Crafts acylation of phenols and acyl chlorides and Fries rearrangement of phenyl esters in trifluoromethanesulfonic acid: Effective synthesis of optically active homotyrosines
-
Reactions involving phenol derivatives and acyl chlorides have to be controlled for competitive O-acylations and C-acylations (Friedel-Crafts acylations and Fries rearrangements) in acidic condition. The extent for these reactions in trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (TfOH), which is used as catalyst and solvent, is examined. Although diluted TfOH was needed for effective O-acylation, concentrated TfOH was required for effective C-acylations in mild condition. These results have been applied to the novel synthesis of homotyrosine derivatives. Both Fries rearrangement of N-TFA-Asp(OBn)-OMe and Friedel-Crafts acylation of phenol with N-TFA-Asp(Cl)-OMe in TfOH afforded the homotyrosine skeleton, followed by reduction and deprotection afforded homotyrosines maintaining stereochemistry of Asp as an optically pure form.
