, p. 8469 - 8474 (2002)
The decomposition of 1-13C-D-glucose, 6-13C-D-glucose, and 1-13C-sodium lactate has been studied in hot (145 ± 3 °C) alkaline (3.5 M) sodium hydroxide solution in order to understand the mechanisms of carbon exchange in th

Glycolic acid is a useful and important α-hydroxy acid that has broad applications. Herein, the homogeneous ruthenium catalyzed reforming of aqueous ethylene glycol to generate glycolic acid as well as pure hydrogen gas, without concomitant CO2 emission, is reported. This approach provides a clean and sustainable direction to glycolic acid and hydrogen, based on inexpensive, readily available, and renewable ethylene glycol using 0.5 mol % of catalyst. In-depth mechanistic experimental and computational studies highlight key aspects of the PNNH-ligand framework involved in this transformation.
Efficient and Bio-inspired Conversion of Cellulose to Formic Acid Catalyzed by Metalloporphyrins in Alkaline Solution

A bio-inspired approach for efficient conversion of cellulose to formic acid (FA) was developed in an aqueous alkaline medium. Metalloporphyrins mimicking cytochrome P450 exhibit efficiently and selectively catalytic performance in catalytic conversion of cellulose. High yield of FA about 63.7% was obtained by using sulfonated iron(III) porphyrin as the catalyst and O2 as the oxidant. Iron(III)-peroxo species, TSPPFeIIIOO?, was involved to cleave the C-C bonds of gluconic acid to FA in this catalytic system. This approach used relatively high concentration of cellulose and ppm concentration of catalyst. This work may provide a bio-inspired route to efficient conversion of cellulose to FA.
Gold on carbon as a new catalyst for selective liquid phase oxidation of diols
Prati, Laura,Rossi, Michele
, p. 552 - 560 (1998)
Catalytic oxidation of vicinal diols to α-hydroxy carboxylates with dioxygen in alkaline solution has been performed by using gold based catalysts. The optimization of the catalytic system has highlighted the influence of the support and preparation method on both activity and selectivity. Under mild conditions (T = 343-363 K, pO2 = 300 kPa (absolute)) high selectivities (90-100%) toward monooxygenation in the cases of ethane-1,2-diol and propane-1,2-diol were achieved at high diol conversions (80-94%). The racemization of optically active propane-1,2-diol during its oxidation as well as isotopic H-D exchange experiments allowed us to deduce new features in the mechanism of diol oxidation and concerning the dependence of selectivity on reaction conditions. The recycling of gold on carbon catalyst revealed its good resistance toward deactivation, greater than palladium or platinum on carbon catalysts which were respectively affected by metal leaching and a considerable loss of selectivity.
Bismuth as a modifier of Au-Pd catalyst: Enhancing selectivity in alcohol oxidation by suppressing parallel reaction
Villa, Alberto,Wang, Di,Veith, Gabriel M.,Prati, Laura
, p. 73 - 80 (2012)
Bi has been widely employed as a modifier for Pd and Pt based catalyst mainly in order to improve selectivity. We found that when Bi was added to the bimetallic system AuPd, the effect on activity in alcohol oxidation mainly depends on the amount of Bi regardless its position, being negligible when Bi was 0.1 wt% and detectably negative when the amount was increased to 3 wt%. However, the selectivity of the reactions notably varied only when Bi was deposited on the surface of metal nanoparticles suppressing parallel reaction in both benzyl alcohol and glycerol oxidation. After a careful characterization of all the catalysts and additional catalytic tests, we concluded that the Bi influence on the activity of the catalysts could be ascribed to electronic effect whereas the one on selectivity mainly to a geometric modification. Moreover, the Bi-modified AuPd/AC catalyst showed possible application in the production of tartronic acid, a useful intermediate, from glycerol.

The invention provides a preparation method for 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. The preparation method comprises the following steps: A) reacting a divalent salt of glycolic acid as shown in a formula(I) with 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene under the action of a catalyst so as to produce 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate as shown in a formula (II); and B) acidizing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate so as to obtain 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. According to the invention, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene is creatively used for replacing phenol and chlorophenol and subjected to a condensation reaction with glycolate so as toproduce 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate, and hydrolysis is carried out so as to prepare 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid; so such a technical scheme effectively avoids the usage of phenol or chlorophenol, overcomes the problems of peculiar smell of an operation place and production of waste gas, waste water and industrial residues, greatly improves the operation environment of the operation place and produces good environmental protection benefits, and the reaction has high yield and purity.
