Synthesis of an enzyme-like imprinted polymer with the substrate as the template, and its catalytic properties under aqueous conditions

Transition state analogues (TSAs) have long been regarded as ideal templates for the preparation of catalytically active synthetic imprinted polymers. In the current work, however, a new type of molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized with the substrate (homovanillic acid, HVA) as the template and hemin introduced as the catalytic center, with the use of plural functional monomers to prepare the active sites. The MIP successfully mimicked natural peroxidase, suggesting that it may not be imperative to employ a TSA as the template when preparing enzyme-like imprinted polymers and that the imprinted polymer matrix provided an advantageous microenvironment around the catalytic center (hemin), essentially similar to that supplied by apo-proteins in natural enzymes. Significantly, by taking advantage of the special structure of hemin and multiple-site interactions provided by several functional monomers, the intrinsic difficulties for MIPs in recognizing template molecules in polar solutions were overcome. The newly developed polymer showed considerable recognizing ability toward HVA, catalytic activity, substrate specificity and also stability, which are the merits lacked by the natural peroxidase. Meanwhile, the ease of recovery and reuse the MIP implies the potential for industrial application.

Comparative quantum chemical studies in the framework of Gaussian approximations of the acidic characteristics of the simplest zeolite clusters and of the sulfuric acid molecule

Different variants of the Gaussian approximation, giving the energetic characteristics of molecules with chemical accuracy (±2 kcal mol^–1), are applied to calculations of the deprotonation energy of the sulfuric acid molecule in the gas phase as well as to the simplest clusters modeling the bridging hydroxyl groups in zeolites, The conclusion is made that the bridging hydroxyls am more acidic than the sulfuric acid molecule. The estimated range of deprotonation energy in zeolites (275±15 kcal mol^–1), is in good agreement with experimental data and with results ofab initio calculations for extended models including several tens of atoms. The effects of the quality of the basis set and electron correlation on deprotonation energy are also discussed.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya.

Development of chromium-free iron-based catalysts for high-temperature water-gas shift reaction

Chromium-free iron-based catalysts were prepared and studied in regard to their performance in the high-temperature water-gas shift reaction (HTS). The effects of various catalyst preparation variables (i.e., Fe/promoter ratio, pH of precipitation medium, calcination and reduction temperatures) and preparation methods were investigated. Aluminum is a potential chromium replacement in HTS catalysts. Further improvement in WGS activity of Fe–Al catalysts can be achieved by the addition of small amounts of copper or cobalt. Catalysts were characterized using BET surface area measurements, temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). As a textural promoter, aluminum and chromium prevent the sintering of iron oxides and stabilize magnetite phase by retarding its further reduction to FeO and metallic Fe. The promotional effect of Cu is found to be strongly dependent on the preparation method.     

Hydrogenation of ethyl esters of 4-phenyl-and (2-furyl)-substituted 2,4-dioxobutyric acids at palladium black

The hydrogenation of ethyl 4-R-2,4-dioxobutyrates (R = phenyl, 2-furyl) at 5% Pt/Al₂O₃ catalyst, modified with cinchonidine, and at palladium black was investigated. The former had low activity under the conditions we tested. The main products during the hydrogenation of these compounds at palladium black are ethyl 4-R-2-hydroxy-4-oxobutyrates. The yield of the phenyl derivative amounts to 68.5%, while the yield of the corresponding 2-furyl derivative amounts to 97%. In the last case ethyl 2-hydroxy-4-oxo-4-(2-tetrahydrofuryl)butyrate was detected as impurity. The optimum conditions for the formation of ethyl 2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutyrate (yield 88.2%) were determined. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 655–659, May, 2006.     

Low-temperature hydrodechlorination of 2,3-dichlorodibenzo-p-dioxin and chlorobenzene with hydrides catalyzed by transition metal compounds

Hydrodechlorination of chlorobcnzene by chemically bound hydrogen in the presence of transition metal compounds was studied. Alkali and alkaline earth metal hydrides (NaH, MgH₂, LiAlH₄, NaH(LiAlH₄)/12) were used as the sources of the chemically bound hydrogen. The effect of the natures of the hydride and of the transition metal on the activity was studied under comparable conditions. The Pd/C-NaH(LiAlH₄1/2 catalytic system was found to be the most active. This system made it possible to perform the quantitative dechlorination of 2,3-dichlorodibenzo-p-dioxin at 70 °C.Deceased.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

A New Method to Prepare Transition Metal Salts of Bulk and Supported Heteropolyacids. Application to the Catalysis of the Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Isobutyric Acid

Transition metal salts of heteropolyacids have been prepared taking into account the strong acidic and cation exchanging properties of the solid heteropolyacids. The exchange between protons and the transition metal cation is carried out by stirring a suspension of the hydrated heteropolyacid in a solution of the metal acetylacetonate complex in toluene. The exchange occurs on the surface of the solid particles and diffusion of protons and metal cations into the hydrated lattice leads to the substitution of all the protons. The method can be utilized in order to prepare supported vanadyl and copper molybdophosphates from supported heteropolyacids and they have been studied in the catalysis of the oxidative dehydrogenation of isobutyric acid. The effect of vanadyl counter-ions on the catalytic behavior is the same as observed with bulk catalysts but, on the contrary, copper supported molybdophosphate shows an acid catalytic activity not observed with bulk catalysts.
