Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane with carbon dioxide over sulfated zirconia supported metal oxides catalysts

Several metal oxides supported on sulfated zirconia catalysts were tested for the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane into ethylene by carbon dioxide. It is found that the catalytic behavior of supported oxide catalysts differ depending on the nature of metal oxides. Chromium oxide-sulfated zirconia exhibits the highest ethane conversion and medium level of ethylene selectivity, producing 38% ethylene yield at 50% ethane conversion at 650°C.

Protecting group effect on the 1,2-dehydrogenation of 19-hydroxysteroids: a highly efficient protocol for the synthesis of estrogens

19-O-Acylation was found to be indispensable for 1,2-dehydrogenation of 19-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3,17-dione 1a with DDQ as an oxidant after exploring a variety of C-19 substituents. 1,2-Dehydrogenation in combination with subsequent A-ring aromatization via retro-aldol reaction provided a flexible and efficient protocol for the synthesis of estrogens. To demonstrate the utility of the protocol, pharmaceutically attractive estrogens were synthesized from easily available 19-hydroxy-4-ene-3-keto steroids.     

New ZnCe catalyst encapsulated in SBA-15 in the production of 1,3-butadiene from ethanol

ZnO-CeO2/SBA-15 catalysts were prepared by two kinds of solid-state grinding method and used for the production of 1,3-butadiene(1,3-BD) from ethanol.A mixture of SBA-15(with or without organic template) and metal precursors were ground in solid-state.The obtained catalysts were characterized by TG,N2 adsorption-desorption,TEM,XRD,Py-FTIR and NH_3-TPD techniques.Superior dispersion of metal oxides and more exposed acid sites were achieved on the catalyst lOZn_1Ce_5-AS with the presence of organic template in SBA-15 during the solid-state grinding process.The catalytic performance was evaluated in a fixed-bed reactor and a 1,3-butadiene selectivity of as high as 45% is achieved.This is attributed to the coupling effect of Zn and Ce species in the mesopores of SBA-15,in which Zn promotes ethanol dehydrogenation and Ce enhances aldol-condensation,respectively.Additionally,solvent-free method inspires new catalyst synthesis strategy for the production of 1,3-butadiene from ethanol.     

Iodine-mediated facile dehydrogenation of dihydropyridazin-3(2H)one

The catalytic activity of a cyclometalated ruthenium(III) complex for aerobic oxidative dehydrogenation of benzylamines

The ruthenium(III) complex bearing benzo[h]quinoline as a cyclometalated ligand was synthesized and characterized by ESI-MS, elemental analysis, cyclic voltammetry and crystallography. The complex serves as an efficient catalyst for the aerobic oxidative dehydrogenation of benzylamines to the corresponding benzonitriles under mild conditions.     

Photocatalytic properties of new cyclopentadienyl and indenyl rhodium(I) carbonyl complexes with water-soluble 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) and tris(2-cyanoethyl)phosphine

Reactions of [(η⁵-R)Rh(CO)₂] (R = cp, ind) with water-soluble phosphines (L = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane and tris(2-cyanoethyl)phosphine) give the new rhodium(I) complexes of the types [Rh(η⁵-cp)(CO)(PTA)] (1), [Rh(η⁵-cp)(CO)(P(CH₂CH₂CN)₃)] (2), [Rh(η⁵-ind)(CO)(PTA)] (3) and [Rh(η⁵-ind)(CO)(P(CH₂CH₂CN)₃)] (4) in isolated yields of 52-75%. All these compounds have been fully characterized by IR, ¹H, ³¹P{¹H} and ¹³C{¹H} NMR, FAB-MS spectroscopies and elemental analyses. Reactivity for the substitution of phosphine is greater for [(η⁵-ind)Rh(CO)(L)] comparing to [(η⁵-cp)Rh(CO)(L)] because of a flexibility of the indenyl ligand to undergo facile η⁵-η³ coordinative isomerizations. The obtained complexes are active catalyst precursors for the dehydrogenation of propan-2-ol, octane and cyclooctane under photoassisted conditions without any organic hydrogen transfer acceptors, giving TOFs of 26-56 using 3 as precatalyst.
