Catalytic activation of unstrained and nonpolar C-C bonds remains a largely unmet challenge. Here, we describe our detailed efforts in developing a rhodium-catalyzed hydrogenolysis of unstrained C(aryl)-C(alkyl) bonds in 2,2′-methylenediphenols aided by removable directing groups. Good yields of the monophenol products are obtained with tolerating a wide range of functional groups. In addition, the reaction is scalable, and the catalyst loading can be reduced to as low as 0.5 mol %. Moreover, this method proves to be effective to cleave C(aryl)-C(alkyl) linkages in both models of phenolic resins and commercial novolacs resins. Finally, detailed experimental and computational mechanistic studies show that with C-H activation being a competitive but reversible off-cycle reaction, this transformation goes through a directed C(aryl)-C(alkyl) oxidative addition pathway.

Vapor phaseortho-methylation of 4-chlorophenol with methanol was studied over Mn2O3catalyst with two kinds of morphologies. Here, Mn2O3was prepared by a precipitation and hydrothermal method, and showed the morphology of nanoparticles and nanowires, respectively. XRD characterization and BET results showed that, with the increase of calcination temperature, Mn2O3had a higher crystallinity and a smaller specific surface area. N2adsorption/desorption and TPD measurements indicated that Mn2O3nanowires possessed larger external surface areas and more abundant acid and base sites. Simultaneously, in the fixed bed reactor, methanol was used as the methylation reagent for theortho-methylation reaction of 4-chlorophenol. XRD, XPS, TG-MS and other characterizations made it clear that methanol reduced 4-chlorophenol and its methide, which were the main side-reactions. And Mn3+was reduced to Mn2+under the reaction conditions. Changing the carrier gas N2to a H2/Ar mixture further verified that the hydrogen generated by the decomposition of methanol was not the reason for dechlorination of 4-chlorophenol compounds. Here we summarized the progress of 4-chlorophenol methylation based on the methylation of phenol. Also, we proposed a mechanism of the 4-chlorophenol dechlorination effect which was similar to the Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley-type (MPV) reaction. The crystal phase and carbon deposition were investigated in different reaction periods by XRD and TG-DTA. The reaction conditions for the two kinds of morphologies of the Mn2O3catalyst such as calcination temperature, reaction temperature, phenol-methanol ratio and reaction space velocity were optimized.
