- Chiral Ligands in Hypervalent Iodine Compounds: Synthesis and Structures of Binaphthyl-Based λ3-Iodanes
-
Several novel binaphthyl-based chiral hypervalent iodine(III) reagents have been prepared and structurally analysed. Various asymmetric oxidative reactions were applied to evaluate the reactivities and stereoselectivities of those reagents. Moderate to excellent yields were observed; however, very low stereoselectivities were obtained. NMR experiments indicated that these reagents are very easily hydrolysed in either chloroform or DMSO solvents leading to the limited stereoselectivities. It is concluded that the use of chiral ligands is an unsuccessful way to prepare efficient stereoselective iodine(III) reagents.

- Diastereoselective oxidation of menthyl arenesulfenates to sulfinates and access to enantioenriched aryl methyl sulfoxides
-
Three aryl methyl sulfoxides were prepared via the following sequence: synthesis of the menthyl arenesulfenate from the corresponding thiol, diastereoselective oxidation leading to the sulfinate, then reaction with a Grignard reagent. The aryl moiety was substituted with a methyl ester on the ortho position or a nitro group on the ortho or the para position. The sulfenate esters were obtained in fair to excellent yield (42–82%). Four different oxidizing agents were tested to obtain the corresponding sulfinate esters with diastereomeric excesses (de) ranging from 10 to 48%. After separation of the diastereomers and reaction with methyl Grignard reagent, two enantiopure sulfoxides and one enantioenriched sulfoxide (32% ee) were obtained.

-
Self-assembly of polyoxometalates, transition metal salts, and 2,6-bis(2′-pyridyl)-4-hydroxypyridine (LOH) obtained four organic-inorganic hybrids [Co2.5(LOH)(LO)2(H2O)2(PW12O39)]·3CH3CN·2OH (1), [Zn1.5(LOH)3]·(PMo12O40)·CH3OH·2H2O (2), [Cd1.5(LOH)3]·(PW12O40)·2CH3OH·1.5H2O (3), and [Mn(LOH)2]·(PW12O40)·2CH3CN·H3O (4). Hybrid 1 exhibits an extended chain, which could be further connected into a 3D supramolecular architecture by H-bonds. Hybrids 2-4 feature monomolecular structures, which are further bridged via H-bonds to yield charming 3D supramolecular structures. Noteworthy, 1 and 2 can be employed as recyclable and highly efficient heterogeneous catalysts. The activated 1 displays a high catalytic activity for the cycloaddition reaction of CO2 and epoxides.

-
Two polyoxovanadate-based metal-organic polyhedra with octahedral (oct) and rhombic dodecahedral (rdo) geometries have been constructed from a concave molecular building block and linear and triangular carboxylate ligands. VMOP-7 is constructed from {V5O9Cl} SBU and a linear anthracene-9,10-dicarboxylic acid ligand in which all the anthracene groups are perpendicular to the edge of the octahedron. Such an arrangement mode can effectively reduce the steric hindrance between ligands. VMOP-8 is constructed from {V5O9Cl} SBU and a triangular biphenyl 3,4,5-tricarboxylate ligand, which exhibits an elongated rhombic dodecahedral configuration due to the geometry of the ligand. Furthermore, VMOP-8 can serve as a heterogeneous catalyst and exhibits efficient and common catalytic activity for oxidative desulfurization.

We have developed an eco-friendly and chemo-selective photocatalytic synthesis of sulfoxides or sulfones via oxidation of sulfides (thioethers) at ambient temperature using air or O2 as the oxidant. An inexpensive thioxanthone was used as the photocatalyst. Our method offers excellent chemical yields and good functional group tolerance. The hydrogen bonding between hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) and sulfoxides may play an important role in minimizing the over-oxidization of sulfoxides.

- Organocatalytic sulfoxidation
-
Treatment of a sulfide with a catalytic amount of a 1,3-diketone in the presence of silica sulfuric acid as a co-catalyst and hydrogen peroxide (50% aq) as the stoichiometric oxidant leads to the corresponding sulfoxide product. The reaction is effective for diaryl, aryl-alkyl and dialkyl sulfides and is tolerant of oxidisable and acid sensitive functional groups. Investigations have shown that the tris-peroxide 2, formed on reaction of pentane-2,4-dione with hydrogen peroxide under acidic reaction conditions, can oxidise two equivalents of sulfide using the exocyclic peroxide groups whereas the endocyclic peroxide remains intact. Calculations provide a mechanism consistent with experimental observations and suggest the reaction proceeds via an initial acid catalysed ring opening of a protonated tris-peroxide prior to oxygen transfer to a sulfur nucleophile.

- 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

- Sulfoxidation inside a hypercrosslinked microporous network nanotube catalyst

In the present work, a kind of efficient heterogeneous catalyst was synthesized from amine-functionalized hypercrosslinked bottlebrush copolymers of microporous network nanotubes (amine-MNNs) and Na2WO4. The synthesized tungstate-supported microporous network nanotubes (TMNNs) catalyst was shown to be highly active in the selective H2O2 oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides or sulfones under mild conditions due to the high specific surface area (800 m2 g-1) and firm structure of the nanotubes. The catalyst was found to be very stable and could be recycled at least 8 times without any significant loss of activity. These results present a new opportunity for the development of efficient green organic catalytic materials with high activity.

The design and synthesis of effective and recyclable oxidative desulfurization catalysts is of great importance in view of environmental protection and human health. Herein, a family of polyoxomolybdate-based inorganic-organic hybrid materials, namely, [Mn(TMR4A)(H2O)4][Mo6O19]·0.5CH3CH2OH·H2O (1), [Ni(TMR4A)(H2O)4][Mo6O19]·0.5CH3CH2OH·H2O (2), [Zn(TMR4A)(H2O)4][Mo6O19]·0.5CH3CH2OH·H2O (3), and [Co2(TMR4A)2(H2O)4(β-Mo8O26)]·CH3CN·12H2O (4), were assembled by the functionalized resorcin[4]arene ligand (TMR4A) with polyoxomolybdate and metal ions under solvothermal conditions. In isostructural 1-3, the [M(TMR4A)(H2O)4]2+ species (M = MnII, NiII, ZnII) and [Mo6O19]2- anions are held together via C-H···O hydrogen bonds to give a 3D supramolecular architecture. In 4, two [Co(TMR4A)(H2O)2]2+ cations were linked by one [β-Mo8O26]4- anion to produce an attractive molecular dimer. Remarkably, 1-4, as recyclable heterogeneous catalysts, exhibit efficient catalytic oxidation desulfurization activities toward thioethers. Particularly, 1, as a representative example, features selective catalytic oxidation for sulfur mustard simulant. Moreover, their electrochemical properties were also studied.

- Accurate Regulating of Visible-Light Absorption in Polyoxotitanate-Calix[8]arene Systems by Ligand Modification
-
With use of a macrocyclic polyphenol, tert-butylcalix[8]arene (TBC[8]), as ligands, a series of TBC[8]-stabilized {Ti4O2}clusters, containing penta- and hexacoordinated Ti centers, were synthesized. Such complexes are "core-shell" shaped containing a {Ti4O2} core arranged in a zigzag fashion. While outer walls of the clusters are decorated by deprotonated TBC[8], their upper and lower surfaces can be modified by various O- or N-donor ligands, and the ratio of the penta- and hexacoordinated Ti(IV) centers in the {Ti4O2} core can be precisely regulated from 4:0, to 3:1, to 2:2, to 1:3, and finally to 0:4. The combined coordination of different ligands in the axial direction shows significant influence on the adsorption of the TBC[8]-Ti4 system in the visible-light region, and their absorption edge can be precisely regulated from 600 to 700 nm. The above structural functionalization in the TBC[8]-Ti4 system also tunes their photocatalytic H2 production activities and oxidative desulfurization ability. Thus, for the first time, by confining the polyoxotitanium cluster in macrocyclic molecules, we provide an example of understanding the structure-property relationship of titanium-oxygen materials by ligand modification.

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.

A series of functional cation-regulated isopolymolybdate-based organic-inorganic hybrid compounds, Na2H2[Mo4O12(C8H17O5N)2]·10H2O (1), Na2[M(Bis-tris)(H2O)]2[Mo7O24]·10H2O [M = Cu, 2; Ni, 3; Co, 4; Zn, 5; Bis-tris = 2,2-Bis(hydroxymethyl)-2,2′,2″-nitrilotriethanol], and (NH4)2[M(Bis-tris)(H2O)]2[Mo7O24]·6H2O (M = Zn, 6; Cu, 7), were synthesized and characterized toward advanced molecular catalyst design. Compound 1 is a covalently bonded adduct, and its self-assembly process can be probed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Compounds 2-7 are polyoxometalate (POM)-based hybrids containing classic heptamolybdate anions and complex cations with Bis-tris ligands. All of these compounds showed remarkable catalytic effects for selective sulfide oxidation. To the best of our knowledge, compound 5 presents the best catalytic activity so far among the reported hybrid materials with common easily synthesized small-molecule POM clusters and also exhibits outstanding reliability. The conclusion of the catalytic effect is drawn from the results that Zn-based compounds have better catalytic effects than other transition-metal-containing compounds and the compound constructed by Na+ has higher catalytic activity than that constructed by NH4 +. The mechanism studies show that the improvements of the catalytic performance are caused by the synergy between classic heptamolybdate anions and complex cations. ESI-MS data and UV-vis spectra revealed that the POM anions can form intermediate peroxomolybdenum units during catalytic reaction. Further, the combination of the substrate thioanisole with complex cations was characterized by NMR experiments and UV-vis spectra. Thus, a new synergistic mechanism of anions and cations is proposed in which the activated thioanisole is used as a nucleophile to attack the peroxomolybdenum bonds, and this provides a new strategy in the design of reliable POM-based catalysts.

- Versatile catalysis of “natural extract”: oxidation of sulfides and alcohols and ipso-hydroxylation of arylboronic acids
-
Abstract: In the present work, we have described the versatile applications of naturally available inexpensive citrous lemon juice as biocatalyst for controlled oxidation of sulfides and alcohols and ipso-hydroxylation of arylboronic acids using 30% H2O2 as a green oxidant. A series of structurally divergent sulfides and benzyl alcohols were oxidized to their corresponding sulfoxides and aldehydes, respectively, with good-to-excellent yields. Similarly, aryl and heteroaryl boronic acids were rapidly, often within minutes, transformed to their corresponding phenols at room temperature.

- Sodium sulfate-hydrogen peroxide-sodium chloride adduct: selective protocol for the oxidative bromination, iodination and temperature dependent oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones
-
The regioselective bromination and iodination of unprotected aromatic primary amines using enclathrated hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant under mild conditions has been developed, in which potassium bromide (KBr) and potassium iodide (KI) were used as brominating and iodinating agents, respectively. The adduct shows not only regioselectivity for para- or ortho-isomers but also a remarkable chemoselectivity for monobromination. Selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones has also been studied and good to excellent yields of the desired products were obtained. Acetic acid was found to be the solvent of choice for these reactions. This simple method represents an ecologically benign and alternative pathway for the oxidative halogenation of anilines and the oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones.

- Cercosporin-bioinspired selective photooxidation reactions under mild conditions
-
The development of an efficient system for selective oxidation of organic compounds to generate more valuable compounds with molecular oxygen is a significant challenge in industrial chemistry. Bioinspired by the ability of naturally occurring perylenequinonoid pigments (PQPs) to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon photoirradiation, here we report that cercosporin, one of the perylenequinonoid pigments, can function as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly photocatalyst for a wide range of selective oxidations, including benzylic C-H bonds to carbonyls, amines to aldehydes, and sulfides to sulfoxides. All of the representative reactions proceeded smoothly with high efficiency under mild conditions. Owing to the use of inexpensive metal-free visible light-driven photocatalyst produced from microbial fermentation with cheap glucose as the starting material and the ease of handling, we expect that this developed method will be particularly attractive for many more applications in synthetic transformation.

- A multifunctional Co-based metal-organic framework: heterogeneous catalysis, chemiluminescence sensing and moisture-dependent solvatochromism
-
Crystalline materials with multi-catalytic applications are of great value to both fundamental research and practical applications. The platform of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is utilized to fabricate a microporous versatile catalyst with high stability. Self-assembly of a flexible ligand, 4-(4-carboxybenzylamino)benzoic acid (H2CBBA), with Co(ii) resulted in a 3D framework, CBBA-Co, with Co3O clusters exposed in the zigzag channels. Upon in situ activation, CBBA-Co exhibited multiple heterogeneous catalytic activities. Theoretical calculations were carried out to give insights into the catalytic process. In addition, CBBA-Co also showed promising potential in optical sensing by virtue of its catalytic activity. The luminol chemiluminescence was greatly enhanced by CBBA-Co, and linear determination of the concentration of H2O2 in the range of 0-30% was established. The successful implementation of CBBA-Co indicates the feasibility and promising future of employing MOFs as an efficient platform for the fabrication and study of multifunctional catalysts, both experimentally and theoretically.

Then, γ-Fe2O3@HAp-Fe2+ and γ-Fe2O3@HAp-Ni2+ were used as a new and magnetically recoverable nano catalyst for the selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides with 33% aqueous H2O2 (0.5 mL) as an oxidant at room temperature in good to excellent yields and short reaction time. Nontoxicity of reagent, mild reaction condition, inexpensive and high catalytic activity, simple experimental procedure, short period of conversion and excellent yields, and ease of recovery from the reaction mixture using an external magnet are the advantages of the present method.

- Schiff base Mn(III) and Co(II) complexes coated on Co nanoparticles: An efficient and recyclable magnetic nanocatalyst for H2O2 oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides
-
In this paper, an effective and selective heterogeneous catalyst was produced by immobilization of manganese and cobalt Schiff base-complexes on Co magnetite nanoparticles (MNP). The catalysts Co@SiO2[(EtO)3Si-L3]/M (M = Mn(iii) and Co(ii)) were synthesized using Co@SiO2 core-shell nanoparticles and amino-functionalized Co@SiO2. The Schiff base ligand Co@SiO2[(EtO)3Si-L3] was synthesized by reacting Co@SiO2 core-shell nanoparticles with 2-hydroxy 1-naphthaldehyde for the synthesis of Co@SiO2[(EtO)3Si-L3]/M. The catalysts were characterized by several techniques, such as FT-IR, TEM, XRD, TGA and VSM. The catalytic activities of the prepared catalysts were studied by oxidation of sulfides to the sulfoxides under different conditions. These catalysts can be easily recovered and reused in at least seven sequential cycles without considerable leaching and loss of reactivity.

A number of sulfides containing alcohol, ester, and aldehyde functional groups were fruitfully and selectively oxidized without altering the desired characteristics. The magnetic nanocatalyst (Fe3O4/PEG-SO3H) can be conveniently and swiftly retrieved through the utilization of an external magnetic tool and recycled for more than 10 reaction runs without significantly decreasing its catalytic behavior.

- Photocatalytic Properties and Mechanistic Insights into Visible Light-Promoted Aerobic Oxidation of Sulfides to Sulfoxides via Tin Porphyrin-Based Porous Aromatic Frameworks
-
Using concepts of biomimetic catalysis, a kind of tin porphyrin-based porous aromatic framework (SnPor@ PAF) with broad and strong optical absorption in the visible light region was successfully synthesized and subsequently used in the aerobic oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides under ambient conditions and visible light irradiation, in which exhibited enzyme-like features of high efficiency and high selectivity. More interestingly, heterogeneous SnPor@PAF was naturally regarded as an intriguing and versatile photosensitizer for photocatalytic transformation and could be reused several times because of its robust and rigid porphyrin framework. As expected, their π-conjugated structure characteristic in the molecular skeleton might facilitate the activation of molecular oxygen under mild reaction conditions and promoted the production of reactive oxygen species (singlet oxygen (1O2) and superoxide radical anion (O2.?)), which would involve energy transfer and/or electron transfer process. Experimental investigations including emission quenching experiment, oxygen-isotope labelling, typical inhibition experiments, classical fluorescence probe study, photo-oxidation of α-terpinene and in situ electron spin resonance, could provide a mechanistic insight into the photocatalytic reactions. (Figure presented.).

A new type of silica supported Chitosan@vanadium complex was used as a highly active heterogeneous catalyst for asymmetric oxidation of aryl alkyl sulfides. With the economic aqueous H2O2(30%) as the oxidant, the oxidation products were obtained in high yields (up to 95%) with good enantioselectivities (up to 68% ee). It is noted that the marketed drug Nexium (first proton-pump inhibitor, esomeprazole) could be synthesized easily by the newly developed asymmetric sulfoxidation reaction. In addition, the highly active catalyst can be reused five times without losing its catalytic activity.

- Bio-inspired single-chain polymeric nanoparticles containing a chiral salen TiIV complex for highly enantioselective sulfoxidation in water
-
A series of bio-inspired single-chain polymeric nanoparticles (SCPNs) containing a chiral salen TiIV complex in their hydrophobic cavity were constructed from the synthesized amphiphilic copolymers of poly(NIPAAm-co-IL/Ti(salen)) (NIPAAm, N-isopropylacrylamide; IL/Ti(salen), vinylimidazolium ionic liquid-modified chiral salen TiIV complex). These SCPNs behaved as enzyme-mimetic catalysts due to compartmentalization and site isolation, mediating enantioselective oxidation of various sulfides in water with excellent yields (90-99%) and enantioselectivities (ee, 88-99%). In particular, the ee values observed for electron-rich substrates (>95% ee) represented the best results so far in titanium-salen systems. Moreover, the catalysts could be easily recovered for steady reuse by thermo-controlled separation due to thermo-responsive properties. This work first constructed titanium-containing biomimetic SCNPs for biocatalysis of enantioselective sulfoxidation in water.
