Surface only modification of bacterial cellulose nanofibres with organic acids

Bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofibres were modified only on their surface using an esterification reaction with acetic acid, hexanoic acid or dodecanoic acid. This reaction rendered the extremely hydrophilic surfaces of BC nanofibres hydrophobic. The hydrophobicity of BC increased with increasing carbon chain length of the organic acids used for the esterification reaction. Streaming (zeta-) potential measurements showed a slight shift in the isoelectric point and a decrease in ζ_plateau was also observed after the esterification reactions. This was attributed to the loss of acidic functional groups and increase in hydrophobicity due to esterification of BC with organic acids. A method based on hydrogen/deuterium exchange was developed to evaluate the availability of surface hydroxyl groups of neat and modified BC. The thermal degradation temperature of modified BC sheets decreased with increasing carbon chain length of the organic acids used. This is thought to be a direct result of the esterification reaction, which significantly reduces the packing efficiency of the nanofibres because of a reduction in the number of effective hydrogen bonds between them.     

Synthesis of Sulfonated Porous Organic Polymers with a Hydrophobic Core for Efficient Acidic Catalysis in Organic Transformations

Synthesis of sulfonated porous polymers with improved hydrophobicity and stability is of extreme importance in both academic research and industrial applications. However, there is often a trade-off between acidity and surface hydrophobicity of sulfonated polymers. In this study, we report a strategy for the synthesis of sulfonated porous organic polymers (S-PT) with improved hydrophobicity via free radical polymerization method by using a rigid and large multidentate monomer, 1,3,5-tri(4-vinylphenyl)-benzene, having a hydrophobic core. The results of vapor adsorption measurement show that S-PT has more hydrophobic properties than sulfonated poly(divinylbenzene) (S-PD), attributed to the hydrophobic core of its multidentate monomer. Furthermore, the optimization of sulfonation time established a balance between surface acidity and hydrophobicity. Under optimized conditions, S-PT afforded up to 113 mmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹ TOF in the esterification of oleic acid with methanol, more active than commercial Amberlyst-15 with TOF of 15 mmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹ and Nafion NR50 with TOF of 7 mmol g⁻¹ h⁻¹. We believe that the findings of this study will provide useful insights to advance the design and synthesis of solid acid catalysts for organic transformations.     

Susceptibility of never-dried and freeze-dried bacterial cellulose towards esterification with organic acid

The susceptibility of (1) never-dried and (2) freeze-dried bacterial cellulose (BC) towards organic acid esterification is reported in this work. When never-dried BC (BC which was solvent exchanged from water through methanol into pyridine) was modified with hexanoic acid, it was found that the degree of substitution (DS) was significantly lower than that of hexanoic acid modified freeze-dried BC. The crystallinity of freeze-dried BC hexanoate was found to be significantly lower compared to neat BC and never-dried BC hexanoate. This result, along with the high DS indicates that significant bulk modification occurred during the esterification of freeze-dried BC. Such results were not observed for never-dried BC hexanoate. All these evidence point towards to fact that freeze-dried BC was more susceptible to organic acid esterification compared to never-dried BC. A few hypotheses were explored to explain the observed behaviour and further investigated to elucidate our observation; the effect of residual water in cellulose, the accessibility of hydroxyl groups and the crystal structure of never-dried and freeze-dried BC on the susceptibility of cellulose fibrils to esterification, respectively. However, the investigation of these hypotheses raised more questions and we are still left with the main question; why do BC nanofibres behave differently when modifying freeze-dried BC or never-dried BC?     

Highly Efficient Esterification of an Equimolar Amount of Carboxylic Acids and Alcohols Catalyzed by ZrOCl_2·8H_2O

Esterification of carboxylic acids with alcohols is one of the most fundamental and useful transformations in organic synthesis. The most common catalysts are H2SO4 and TsOH. However, H2SO4 or TsOH-catalyzed esterification procedure has some problems such as corrosion, side reactions, difficulty in separation. Hence, recently, various solid acid catalysts such as ion-exchanged resins, molecular sieve, and heteropoly acids etc. have been employed for esterification reaction. However, the s…     

Tetramethyl guanidine-assisted synthesis and thermal crosslinking of multifunctional benzoxazine monomers based on natural phloretic acid

An efficient strategy to synthesize novel biobased multifunctional benzoxazine compounds was developed using the 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl guanidine (TMG)-triggered esterification of natural phloretic acid with organic halides as a key synthetic step. First, phloretic acid was combined with either aniline or furfurylamine to prepare the corresponding carboxylic acid-functional monobenzoxazine monomer. Next, the use of TMG enabled an efficient esterification of these compounds with di-, tri-, and tetra-functional benzyl bromide compounds at room temperature to afford a series of new multi-benzoxazine monomers tethered to an aromatic core. The effect of the functionality of the monomers on the curing process was analyzed, indicating that the reactivity during the thermally induced ring-opening increases with the number of furan and oxazine rings in the monomers. The resulting thermosets revealed good correlation between the number of oxazine rings in the structure of the monomer and the properties of the crosslinked materials. Furfurylamine-based polybenzoxazines showed improved thermal behavior compared to the aniline-based systems, due to the role of furan rings. All materials showed high T_g, good thermal stability, and promising flame retardancy properties.

Ester fuels and chemicals from biomass

Bench-scale research demonstrated that using an efficient esterification step to integrate an ethanol with a carboxylic acid fermentation stream offers potential for producing valuable ester feedstocks and fuels. Polar organic acids from bacterial fermentations are difficult to extract and purify, but formation of the ammonium salts and their conversion to esters facilitates the purifications. An improved esterification procedure gave high yields of esters, and this method will lower the cost of ester production. Fuel characteristics have been determined for a number of ester-gasoline blends with promising results for lowering Reid vapor pressure and raising octane numbers.     

Lipase-catalyzed esterification of selected phenolic acids with linolenyl alcohols in organic solvent media

Lipase-catalyzed esterification of selected phenolic acids with linolenyl alcohols was investigated in selected organic solvent media. The enzyme activity for the esterification of dihydrocaffeic acid with linolenyl alcohol in solvent mixtures of hexane/2-butanone of 75∶25 (v/v) and 65∶35 (v/v) was 0.88 and 0.47 μmol of esterified dihydrocaffeic acid/(g of solid enzyme·min), respectively, with a corresponding esterification yield of 76 and 58%, respectively. However, the esterification of ferulic acid with linolenyl alcohol in the reaction medium of hexane/2-butanone of 65∶35 (v/v) resulted in a low yield (16%). Using the reaction medium of hexane/2-butanone of 75∶25 (v/v), an increase in linolenyl alcohol concentration with a concomitant use of a constant amount of dihydrocaffeic acid resulted in an increase in esterification yield. The highest esterification yield of 99% was obtained with a ratio of dihydrocaffeic acid to linolenyl alcohol of 1∶8 after 7 d of reaction. Biosynthesis of the end product, linolenyl dihydrocaffeate, was confirmed by electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy structural analysis; the esterproduct demonstrated an antiradical activity close to that of α-tocopherol.     

The first total synthesis of neohelmanticins A–D,amino derivatives of the 1,2-dihydroxypropane core and biological evaluation

A concise total synthesis of neohelmanticins A–D has been accomplished in 15 steps starting from commercially available gallic acid. Swern oxidation conditions, a Grignard reaction, Sharpless kinetic resolution, and regioselective ring opening of an epoxide with lithium aluminum hydride (LAH) are the key features to install the basic core, dihydroxy phenyl propane 2. One hydroxyl group of this core was esterified with tiglic acid followed by the oxidation and esterification with corresponding acids to yield neohelmanticins A–D.
