A General Approach to Intermolecular Olefin Hydroacylation through Light-Induced HAT Initiation: An Efficient Synthesis of Long-Chain Aliphatic Ketones and Functionalized Fatty Acids

Herein, an operationally simple, environmentally benign and effective method for intermolecular radical hydroacylation of unactivated substrates by employing photo-induced hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) initiation is described. The use of commercially available and inexpensive photoinitiators (Ph2CO and NHPI) makes the process attractive. The olefin hydroacylation protocol applies to a wide array of substrates bearing numerous functional groups and many complex structural units. The reaction proves to be scalable (up to 5 g). Different functionalized fatty acids, petrochemicals and naturally occurring alkanes can be synthesized with this protocol. A radical chain mechanism is implicated in the process.

A new vanadium(IV)-bridged polyoxotungstate containing mixed valence-antimony(III,V)

A new mixed-valence SbV/III containing vanadium-substituted polyoxotungstate Na10[{SbV(OH)3} 2{VIV-O(H2O)}2{Sb IIIW9O33}2]·32H2O (1-Na) has been synthesized by routine synthetic reaction and characterized by IR, XPS, elemental analysis. The polyoxoanion [{SbV(OH)3}2{V IVO(H2O)}2{SbIIIW9O33}2]10 (1) consists of two trilacunary species β-B-SbIIIW9O 33 connected by two VIVO(H2O) groups and two SbV(OH)3 units. The cyclic voltammetry and catalytic activity of 1-Na for the oxidation of n-hexadecane under green condition have been measured.

Oxidation of sec-Alcohols to the Corresponding Ketones by Corynebacterium equi

Corinebacterium equi IFO 3730 was found to oxidize a wide variety of sec-alcohols, including alkanols, substituted alkanols, alkenols and cyclic alcohols, in moderate to high yields.Among them, the sec-alcohols which have longer carbon chains were oxidized more smoothly than those with smaller numbers of carbon.Although both enantiomers of unsymmetrically disubstituted carbinols were oxidized, the S form of 2-dodecanol was converted to the corresponding ketone a little faster than the other enantiomer.
