One-pot synthesis of α-aminophosphonates catalyzed by antimony trichloride adsorbed on alumina

SbCl₃ adsorbed on Al₂O₃ is found to be an efficient and recyclable catalyst in promoting three-component coupling reactions of aldehydes (aromatic and aliphatic), amines (aryl amines, aliphatic amines and esters of S-α-amino acids) and dialkylphosphites to afford the corresponding α-aminophosphonates in high yields. The ethyl ester of S-phenylalanine was observed to yield the corresponding α-aminophosphonate with S,S-diastereoisomer formed in dominance over the S,R-diastereoisomer.     

Liquid crystalline epoxies bearing biphenyl ether and aromatic ester mesogenic units: Synthesis and thermal properties

Two liquid crystalline epoxies containing biphenyl ether and aromatic ester mesogenic units, oxybis(4,1-phenylene)bis(4-(oxiran-2-ylmethoxy)benzoate)(LCE1) and oxybis(4,1-phenylene) bis(4-(4-(oxiran-2-yl)butoxy)benzoate)(LCE2), were synthesized and characterized. Subsequently, the epoxy monomers were cured with diaminodiphenylsulfone (DDS). From DSC, XRD and POM results, monomers did not show liquid crystalline phase while the cured samples exhibited nematic phase. The cured samples showed good mechanical properties with strength of 99.1MPa and excellent thermal stabilities with high glass transition temperature up to 168.0?°C, 5% weight loss temperature at 343?°C and high char yield of 24.5% at 800?°C. The relationship between thermal conductivity and network structure was discussed in this work. Due to the introduction of mesogenic units into epoxy networks, the cured resins showed high thermal conductivity as high as 0.292?W/(m*K), more than 1.5times higher than conventional epoxy resins. By introducing alumina (Al₂O₃) into LCE1/DDS cured system, composites of LCE1/DDS/Al₂O₃ with the highest thermal conductivity of 1.61?W/(m*K) was obtained with the content of 80?wt% while that of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA, E51) epoxy resin/DDS/Al₂O₃ was 1.10?W/(m*K). The as-prepared epoxy resins showed high glass transition temperature and excellent thermal stabilities, indicating the potential of application in microelectronics.

Catalytic Ketonization over Oxide Catalysts, Part IV. Cycloketonization of Diethyl Hexanodiate

Activity of 20 wt.% MO₂/S catalysts, where M = Mn, Ce and Th, and S = Al₂O₃ or SiO₂, has been studied in cycloketonization of diethyl hexanodiate at the temperature range 573-698 K in a flow system.

ThO₂ containing catalysts were the most active, whereby ester transformations were detected below 573 K. In the presence of all catalysts the formation of the main product was accompanied by various amounts of 2-ethylcyclopentanone, cyclopent-2-en-1-one, cyclopentene, 2-cyclopentylidenecyclopentanone and numerous unidentified by-products.

Molecular mass distribution of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons obtained from CO and H2 in the presence of Fe catalysts

It has been demonstrated that together with C₁-C₆ aliphatic hydrocarbons up to 20% C₆-C₉ aromatic hydrocarbons are formed from a mixture of COH₂ (11) in the presence of 8.2% Fe-4.5% K/Al₂O₃. A new method for determining the parameter a in the Schultz-Flory equation has been proposed which is applicable to the synthesis of low molecular mass C₁-C₆ hydrocarbons. It has been shown that the mass fractions of aromatic hydrocarbons are higher than the values expected on the basis of a step-wise mechanism for growth of the hydrocarbon chain.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 40–44, January, 1991.

Derivatives of α,β-dehydro amino acids: III. Reaction of 4-arylmethylidene-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-5-ones with hexamethyldisilazane

4-Arylmethylidene-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-5-ones reacted with hexamethyldisilazane in ethyl acetate, acetonitrile, or DMF at room temperature to give mainly 2-acylamino-3-arylmethylideneprop-2-enamides, whereas in boiling DMF the corresponding 4-arylmethylidene-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-5-ones were formed. The reaction of 2-benzoylamino-3-phenylprop-2-enamide with hexamethyldisilazane also led to the formation of 4-benzylidene-2-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-5-one, while its reaction with chlorotrimethylsilane afforded either a 1:1 mixture of 4-benzylidene-2-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-5-one and 4-benzylidene-2-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-5-one or only the latter, depending on the solvent.     

Catalytic Combustion of Ethyl Acetate over Al2O3- Ce0.5Zr0.5O2 Supported Metal Oxide Catalysts

The catalysts for the combustion of ethyl acetate were prepared using Fe, Co, Cu, Cr, and Mn metal oxide as active components supported on Al₂O₃-Ce_0.5Zr_0.5O₂ mixed oxides and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature programmed reduction (TPR), oxygen storage capacity measurement, BET surface area, XPS measurement, and activity test. According to the results of characterization, it was found that Cu/Al₂O₃-Ce_0.5Zr_0.5O₂ (1:2, mass ratio) and Mn/Al₂O₃-Ce_0.5Zr_0.5O₂ (1:2) catalysts presented excellent activity for the catalytic combustion of ethyl acetate, because of the more reducible species and high reducibility of the catalysts. For ethyl acetate oxidation, more than 99% conversion was achieved at 245 °C over catalysts Cu/Al₂O₃-Ce_0.5Zr_0.5O₂ (1:2) and Mn/Al₂O₃-Ce_0.5Zr_0.5O₂ (1:2, mass ratio), indicating that the catalysts had great potential for wide use.

SYNTHESIS OF SOME NEW 3-ARYLOXYMETHYL- 4-PHENYL-5-(N-SUBSTITUTED CARBOXAMIDOMETHYLTHI0)-S-TRIAZOLES

Abstract

3-Aryloxymethyl-4-phenyl-5-mercapto-s-triazoles (I_a-c) have been synthesized and reacted with N-chloroacetyl derivatives of aromatic and/or heterocyclic amines to yield 5-(N-aryl/heterocyclyl)-carboxamidomethyl thio-s-triazole derivatives 2_a-o and 3_a-o respectively. Reaction of I_a-u with ethyl chloroacetate gave the corresponding esters 4_a-c which were reacted with hydrazine hydrate to give hydrazides 5_a-c. Condensation of 5_a-c with aromatic aldehydes gave Schiff s bases 6_a-u with on cycloaddition reaction with thioglycolic acid yielded 4-thiazolidinones 7_a-g. Some of these compounds were screened in vitro for their antibacterial activities.     

Catalytic Potential of Pyrazolone Based Dioxidomolybdenum(VI) Complexes for Multicomponent Biginelli Reactions,Epoxidation of Olefins and Oxidative Bromination of Phenol Derivatives

Three different types of dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complexes of 4-acetyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone (Hmp, I )), 3-methyl-1-phenyl-4-propionyl-5-pyrazolone (Hpp, II ), 4-butyryl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone (Hbutp, III ), and 4-isobutyryl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone (isobutp, IV ) have been isolated and characterized by various spectroscopic (FT-IR, UV/Vis, ¹H and ¹³C NMR) techniques, thermal analysis and single crystal X-ray analysis. These complexes adopt a distorted six-coordinate octahedral geometry where ligands act as bidentate, coordinating through the two O atoms. These complexes have been used as catalysts to explore a single pot multicomponent (benzaldehyde or its derivatives, urea/thiourea and ethyl acetoacetate/phenyl acetoacatate) Biginelli reaction producing biologically active 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-one and 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-thione based biomolecules under solvent-free conditions. Presence of H₂O₂ improves the yield of dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-one but it acts as poison for the later molecule. Epoxidation of internal and terminal alkenes mainly resulted in the formation of the corresponding epoxide. The catalytic oxidative bromination of thymol, a reaction facilitated by vanadium dependent haloperoxidases, resulted in the formation of three product namely 2-bromothymol, 4-bromothymol and 2,4-bromothymol. Other phenol derivatives have also been brominated effectively.
