Ionic liquid-promoted one-pot oxidative Michael addition of TMSCN to Baylis-Hillman adducts

The first example of ionic liquid-promoted one-pot oxidative conjugate hydrocyanation of Baylis-Hillman adducts with trimethylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN) is reported. The oxidation of Baylis-Hillman adducts with IBX/[bmim]Br or isomerization-oxidation with NaNO₃/[Hmim]HSO₄ systems affords β-ketomethylene compounds or [E]-cinnamaldehydes, respectively. These α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds undergo Michael addition with TMSCN in the same vessel to afford the corresponding thermodynamically more stable β-cyanated products. Thermodynamically less stable 1,2-addition products were not formed. The present regioselective reactions are promoted by ionic liquids, which can be recycled easily for further use without any loss of efficiency.

离子液体催化剂用于煤焦化苯深度脱硫制无硫苯

从扩大有机合成用苯的需求出发,采用研制的离子液体催化剂考察了煤焦化苯深度脱硫制无硫苯的过程。结果表明：N-甲基咪唑硫酸氢盐[Hmim][HSO₄]离子液体催化剂脱噻吩效果与其酸函数值有关。本文采用Hammett指示剂测定离子液体的酸函数H₀,并得出：在-4至-12的范围,离子液体催化剂可以使煤焦化苯噻吩脱至0. 5mg/L以下。与固体酸催化机理相似,酸量和酸强度一定的离子液体催化剂通过Friedel-Crafts反应形成烷基噻吩等,与苯的物性拉开距离,对苯的分离精制是必不可少的,但是过多、过强的[Hmim][HSO₄]酸值也更有利于苯-噻吩-烯烃共聚合等副反应的发生,从而影响离子液体催化剂重复使用的寿命。本研究利用煤焦化苯脱硫反应形成的噻吩衍生物作为提供电荷流通的聚合物,将反复使用后性能不佳的离子液体成分等作为“受电子型”和“给电子型”的掺杂剂,进行导电（抗静电）材料的制备。结果显示：对煤焦化苯脱硫形成的噻吩衍生物等可以用于掺杂导电材料的试制。     

Halogen-Free Room-Temperature Brønsted Acidic Ionic Liquid [Hmim]+ HSO4 − as a Recyclable Green “Dual Reagent” Catalysis for the Synthesis of Triarylmethanes (TRAMs)

Abstract

The halogen-free Brønsted acidic ionic liquid methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate ([Hmim]⁺ HSO₄ ^?) acts as a very efficient catalyst for the one-pot, two-component Baeyer condensation of a variety of aromatic aldehydes with dimethyl or diethyl aniline at room temperature. This “green” reagent behaves as both catalyst and solvent; that is, it exhibits “dual-reagent catalysis.” The room-temperature acidic ionic liquid could be recycled several times with almost no loss in the yield of the reaction. This is the first report of the Baeyer synthesis with a halogen-free ionic liquid.     

An efficient conjugate hydrothiocyanation of chalcones with a task-specific ionic liquid

A new and efficient method of conjugate hydrothiocyanation of chalcones along with the preparation of a probe for demonstrating the utility of the resulting β-thiocyanato ketones in heterocyclic synthesis is reported. Chalcones undergo an efficient conjugate hydrothiocyanation with the task-specific ionic liquid (TSIL), 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium thiocyanate ([bmim]SCN) followed by reaction with AcONH₄ or an amine to afford chemically and pharmaceutically interesting 2-amino-1,3-thiazines at room temperature in a one-pot procedure. After isolation of the product, the ionic liquid [bmim]OH could be used for the synthesis of [bmim]SCN, thus allowing recycling of the TSIL for further use.

Z/E Stereoselective synthesis of β-bromo Baylis-Hillman ketones using MgBr2 as promoter via a one-pot three-component reaction

The first time steroselective synthesis of (Z)-β-bromo Baylis-Hillman ketones has been achieved using a one-pot three-component reaction. The new system uses MgBr₂ as both the Lewis acidic promoter and the bromine source for the Michael-type addition with α,β-acetylenic ketones to form an active β-bromo allenolate intermediate, which in turn attacks various aldehydes to afford β-bromo Baylis-Hillman adducts in good yields and Z-selectivity.     

Performance and Mechanism of Alkylimidazolium Ionic Liquids as Corrosion Inhibitors for Copper in Sulfuric Acid Solution

The addition of corrosion inhibitors is an economic and environmental protection method to prevent the corrosion of copper. The adsorption, performance, and mechanism of three 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate ([BMIM]HSO₄, [HMIM]HSO₄, and [OMIM]HSO₄) ionic liquids (ILs) on the copper surface in 0.5 M H₂SO₄ solutions were studied by quantum chemical calculation, quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR), and molecular dynamics simulation. It is found that the main reactive site is located on the imidazolium ring (especially the C2, N4, and N7 groups). When the alkyl chain of the imidazolium ring is increasing, the molecular reactivity of the ILs and the interaction between the ILs inhibitor and copper surface are enhanced. The imidazole ring of the ILs tends to be adsorbed on Cu (111) surface in parallel through physical adsorption. The order of adsorption energy is [Bmim]HSO₄ < [Hmim]HSO₄ < [OMIM]HSO₄, which is in agreement with the experimental order of corrosion efficiency. On the imidazole ring, the interaction between the copper surface and the C atom is greater than that between the copper surface and the N atom. It is found that ILs addition can hinder the diffusion of corrosion particles, reduce the number density of corrosion particles and slow down the corrosion rate. The order of inhibition ability of three ILs is [Bmim]HSO₄ < [Hmim]HSO₄ < [OMIM]HSO₄,which agree well with experimental results. A reliable QSAR correlation between the inhibition corrosion efficiency and molecular reactivity parameters of the ILs was established.     

Biginelli reaction starting directly from alcohols

An efficient of one-pot oxidative access to 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones directly from aromatic alcohols under mild conditions is reported. The protocol involves 1-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulphate [Hmim]HSO₄ catalyzed oxidation of aromatic alcohols to aromatic aldehydes with NaNO₃ followed by their cyclocondensation with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and urea in the same reaction vessel at 80 °C within 2-4 h to afford 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones in 55-97% overall yields. Thus, the present work utilizing alcohols instead of aldehyde in Biginelli reaction is a valid and green alternative to the classical synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones.
