A new and practical continuous flow procedure for preparative scale organic synthesis using a kitchen microwave oven as the heat source has been developed and successfully applied to five different organic reactions.

A mesoporous carbon (CMC) has been treated under acidic conditions (32.5 wt% HNO3 at 10 °C or 40 °C) to prepare two new carbon samples (HCMC10 and HCMC40), which developed higher acidity in terms of quantity of sites and surface acid strength. The properties of the three carbons have been studied by using various techniques (N2 adsorption/desorption, TEM, XRPD, Raman spectroscopy, 13C NMR, 2D 1H-13C NMR, and XPS). Aromatic -COOH and -OH groups were identified as the main surface acid sites. Acid site density has been determined by pulse liquid-solid phase adsorption experiments carried out in different liquids. The samples retained acidity features in water, due to hydrophobicity of the surfaces, while acidity dropped when measured in methanol. From NH3-TPD analysis, a ranking of acid strength could be obtained: HCMC40 > HCMC10 > CMC. The good acidity of the carbon samples allowed them to act as catalysts in the hydrolysis reaction of sucrose to glucose and fructose. The catalytic activity of the carbon samples was compared to that of Amberlite, a commercial sulfated acid resin; the observed kinetic constant of HCMC40 was similar to that of Amberlite.
Tin Grafted on Modified Alumina-Catalyzed Isomerisation of Glucose to Fructose

The present study focuses on designing a catalyst based on hot water treated alumina (Al2O3-HWT) for the conversion of glucose to fructose. The glucose isomerisation reactions are performed with tin incorporated on parent Al2O3 and Al2O3-HWT in methanol. 0.5 wt% Sn/Al2O3-HWT affords a combined yield of fructose and methylfructoside (30.4%) which is two-fold higher than that obtained with 0.5wt% Sn/Al2O3 (15.1%), implying the importance of hot water treatment of Al2O3. Al2O3-HWT shows a very broad peak centred around 3440 cm-1, which could be assigned to OH stretching band of gibbsite, γ-Al(OH)3 which significantly diminished after solid state ion-exchange with SnCl4.5H2O (0.5 wt% Sn/Al2O3-HWT). UV-Vis diffused reflectance spectrum of 0.5 wt% Sn/Al2O3-HWT displays a peak centered at 241 nm, which can be ascribed to the incorporation of tin into the alumina network. XRD patterns of 0.5, 3 and 5 wt% Sn/Al2O3-HWT show that no peak corresponding to SnO2 is formed. Importantly, 0.5wt% SnO2/Al2O3-HWT exhibits a low activity, giving 13.2% of the total yield of fructose and methylfructoside, respectively, compared to 0.5wt% Sn/Al2O3-HWT (30.4% fructose), signifying the role of incorporated tin into the alumina network.
