Chromium-Catalyzed Production of Diols From Olefins
-
Paragraph 0111, (2021/03/19)
Processes for converting an olefin reactant into a diol compound are disclosed, and these processes include the steps of contacting the olefin reactant and a supported chromium catalyst comprising chromium in a hexavalent oxidation state to reduce at least a portion of the supported chromium catalyst to form a reduced chromium catalyst, and hydrolyzing the reduced chromium catalyst to form a reaction product comprising the diol compound. While being contacted, the olefin reactant and the supported chromium catalyst can be irradiated with a light beam at a wavelength in the UV-visible spectrum. Optionally, these processes can further comprise a step of calcining at least a portion of the reduced chromium catalyst to regenerate the supported chromium catalyst.

α-hydroxy ketones (HK) and 1,2-diols are important building blocks for fine chemical synthesis. Here, we describe the R-selective 2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase from B. clausii DSM 8716T (BcBDH) that belongs to the metal-dependent medium chain dehydrogenases/reductases family (MDR) and catalyzes the selective asymmetric reduction of prochiral 1,2-diketones to the corresponding HK and, in some cases, the reduction of the same to the corresponding 1,2-diols. Aliphatic diketones, like 2,3-pentanedione, 2,3-hexanedione, 5-methyl-2,3-hexanedione, 3,4-hexanedione and 2,3-heptanedione are well transformed. In addition, surprisingly alkyl phenyl dicarbonyls, like 2-hydroxy-1-phenylpropan-1-one and phenylglyoxal are accepted, whereas their derivatives with two phenyl groups are not substrates. Supplementation of Mn2+ (1 mM) increases BcBDH's activity in biotransformations. Furthermore, the biocatalytic reduction of 5-methyl-2,3-hexanedione to mainly 5-methyl-3-hydroxy-2-hexanone with only small amounts of 5-methyl-2-hydroxy-3-hexanone within an enzyme membrane reactor is demonstrated.
Method for synthesizing vicinal diol compound by virtue of one-step process
-
Paragraph 0032-0041, (2018/04/26)
The invention belongs to the technical field of organic chemical synthesis, and in particular relates to a method for synthesizing a vicinal diol compound by virtue of a one-step process. The vicinaldiol compound is obtained by carrying out reaction on olefin and an oxidizing agent in presence of a bifunctional catalyst, wherein the bifunctional catalyst comprises 25-75% of titanium silicalite molecular sieves, 20-70% of nano alumina and 3-8% of boric oxide in percentage by mass with the titanium silicalite molecular sieves, nano alumina and boric oxide as the benchmarks. The method for synthesizing the vicinal diol compound has the advantages that the traditional two-step vicinal diol synthesis technology is simplified; in the synthetic method, a catalyst still maintains good catalytic performance under long-period operation condition, raw material conversion rate is high, and yield of the vicinal diol compound is high; and olefin raw material conversion rate is 80.2-94.6%, and vicinal diol reaction generation selectivity is 85.7-96.3%.
