纳米钯催化苄基氯代物与烯丙基硼酸频哪醇酯的羧化Suzuki偶联反应

CO2是廉价的C1源,同时具有无毒、储量丰富的优点, 符合绿色化学发展要求. 利用 CO2构筑新的 C–C 键是化学固定CO2的重要方法. Β,γ-不饱和酯类结构单元是许多生物活性分子的重要组成部分, 经由双π-烯丙基钯中间体与 CO2反应, 合成新的β,γ-不饱和酯类化合物, 具有重要意义. CO2与有机硼化合物的羧化反应已有报道, 有机硼化合物具有低毒、对水不敏感等优点. 但是已报道的羧化 Suzuki 偶联反应存在诸多缺点: (1) 需要使用含膦或者氮杂环卡宾配体的催化剂, 而这些催化剂的制备过程使前期实验步骤变得冗长, 同时反应液的酸化后处理过程也会造成环境污染; (2) 有机硼试剂的官能团兼容范围窄, 限制了底物范围的拓展. 本课题组以原位生成的纳米钯粒子为催化剂, 在 CO2存在的温和条件下, 高效实现了苄氯与烯丙基硼酸频哪醇酯的羧化 Suzuki 偶联反应. 反应过程中无其它配体加入, 反应结束后不需要酸化或酯化的后处理过程. 该反应将具有广泛的官能团兼容性.本文以 TBAB 稳定的纳米钯粒子为催化剂, 在温和条件下, 实现了氯甲基芳香化合物、烯丙基硼酸频哪醇酯和 CO2的三组分羧化 Suzuki 偶联反应. 最佳反应条件为: Pd(acac)2(5 mol%)、TBAB (0.7 mmol, 1.4 equiv.)、KF (1 mmol, 2.0 equiv.)、苄基卤代物 (0.5 mmol)、烯丙基硼酸频哪醇酯 (0.6 mmol, 1.2 equiv.)、CO2(2.0 Mpa)、溶剂 THF (5 mL), 50 oC 反应 24 h. 在最佳反应条件下, 苯环、萘环以及杂芳环的氯甲基化合物均可发生该羧化反应. 苯环上取代基的位置对产物的收率有影响. 当使用 1-溴甲基萘作为底物时反应也能够发生, 收率与 1-氯甲基萘作为底物时的收率相当. 与已报道有机硼试剂的羧化反应相比, 该反应体系无需加入配体, 原位生成了纳米钯粒子, 避免了催化剂或者配体的复杂制备过程. 该反应中, 氟离子的存在是必要的, 对烯丙基硼酸频哪醇酯具有活化作用.     

非负载纳米多孔钯催化喹啉及其衍生物的化学选择性氢化反应:H_2分子异裂（英文）

纳米多孔金属是近十年发展起来的一类具有三维通孔结构的新型功能材料,其由纳米尺度的细孔和韧带构成,具有极大的比表面积;它还是一种无毒无载体的宏观材料,并且易制备、易回收和重复利用,因此作为高效的非均相催化剂已逐渐引起人们的重视.1,2,3,4-四氢喹啉是许多医药、农药、染料和天然产物的重要骨架.通过喹啉及其衍生物的选择性加氢反应制备1,2,3,4-四氢喹啉,具有原子利用率高和原料易得等优点.在过去,已经开发了许多类型的均相和非均相催化体系,并成功地用于催化喹啉及其衍生物的选择性加氢反应.尽管非均相催化体系具有诸多优点,但仍存在H_2压力(10–50 atm)和反应温度(60–150℃)相对较高的缺点.因此,开发更加温和条件下的喹啉及其衍生物的选择性加氢反应具有重要意义.此外,在喹啉及其衍生物的加氢反应过程中,H_2分子在非均相催化剂表面的裂解模式,即均裂还是异裂尚不清楚.因此,本文采用新型非均相催化剂纳米多孔钯,研究了喹啉及其衍生物的选择性加氢反应,在相对较低的H_2压力(2–5 atm)和温度(室温–50℃)下实现了目标反应,高收率、高选择性地得到1,2,3,4-四氢喹啉化合物.在最佳反应条件下,对底物的适用范围进行了考察.结果表明,各种含喹啉结构单元的化合物均能顺利发生反应,产物收率在62%–95%.而且该反应对甲基、甲氧基、羟基、酯基、醛基、酰胺基、卤素(F,Cl和Br)等官能团具有较好的兼容性.苯环上取代基的电子效应对反应有一定的影响,吸电子基有利于目标反应的进行.反应完成后,纳米多孔钯催化剂很容易回收,且循环使用多次后,仍未见催化活性降低.扫描电镜和透射电镜结果发现,循环使用后的纳米多孔钯催化剂结构没有发生明显改变,表明其结构稳定.浸出实验结果证明,没有钯原子浸出到反应液中,表明该纳米多孔钯催化反应属于多相催化过程.喹啉的选择性氢化反应被放大到克级的规模时,目标产物的收率仅略有降低,说明该方法具有很好的实用性.通过动力学实验发现,随着反应的进行,反应速率不断加快,表明反应过程中生成的乙胺和1,2,3,4-四氢喹啉同样扮演着路易斯碱性添加剂的角色,促进了反应的进行.通过反应机理研究,揭示了H–H键在纳米多孔钯表面发生了异裂,原位形成的Pd–H物种作为弱亲核试剂,对目标反应的选择性控制起到了至关重要的作用.     

Practical synthesis of four different pseudoenantiomeric organocatalysts with both cis- and trans-substituted 1,2-cis-cyclohexanediamine structures from a common intermediate

A new and convenient approach has been deviced for the practical synthesis of structurally robust, four different pseudoenantiomeric amino Tf-amido organocatalysts with the unique cis- and trans-substituted 1,2-cis-cyclohexanediamine structures. These pseudoenantiomeric organocatalysts are easily prepared by the Diels-Alder strategy of 2-phenyl-1,3-butadiene and maleic anhydride, and their chemical behavior was investigated by their application to asymmetric aldol synthesis for the practical synthesis of both enantiomeric aldols.     

A New LC Method for Determination of Some Aminoglycoside Antibiotics in Dosage Forms and Human Plasma Using 7-Fluoro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole as a Fluorogenic Pre-Column Label

A validated, selective and sensitive pre-column derivatization chromatographic method for determination of some aminoglycoside antibiotics, namely, amikacin (AMK), gentamicin and neomycin sulphates, has been developed. Determination was obtained by pre-column reaction of the samples with 7-fluoro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole and separating the corresponding derivatives on a reversed phase LC column (ultrasphere C₁₈, 250 × 4.6 mm) and fluorescence detection (λ _ex 465 nm, λ _em 531 nm). Linear quantitative response curve was generated over a concentration range of 0.05–10 μg mL^?1 with a correlation coefficient of more than 0.999 with all studied compounds. The accuracy and precisions were satisfactory for determination of all drugs in dosage forms within- and between-run assay. Furthermore, the method was extended to the determination of AMK in spiked human plasma. The method is specific for the intact drugs, and can be adopted in the presence of co-formulated drugs.     

Flow-assisted automated solid-phase microextraction for the determination of chloroethers in aqueous matrices

In this study a method of flow-assisted automated solid-phase microextraction (FA-SPME) was developed for the determination of organic pollutants in aqueous samples. A CTC Combi-PAL autosampler coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) was used to automate the entire extraction process. In this method, the SPME fibre was exposed to 100 mL of sample in a direct immersion mode for 10 min. After exposure, the fibre was desorbed at the injection port of GC–MS. To demonstrate the applicability of FA-SPME, chloroethers were selected as model compounds. Good linear correlation was found over a concentration range of 0.5–100 µg/L. The detection limits of the method were determined between 0.02 and 0.05 µg/L with the coefficients of determination (R²) from 0.9980 to 0.9996. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of the FA-SPME for three sequential FA-SPME analyses were determined to be in the range between 1.2% and 6.2% (n = 3). The applicability of the method was assessed by means of recovery studies and satisfactory values for all compounds were obtained. This optimised method was used in the analysis of water and human urine samples to show the matrix effect on FA-SPME. This FA-SPME/GC–MS is substantially faster and suitable for the routine continuous flow-mode environmental monitoring applications.     

Mixed micellization of gemini surfactant with nonionic surfactant in aqueous media: a fluorometric study

Herein we report on the study of the interactions between alkanediyl-α,ω-type cationic dimeric (gemini) surfactant and the nonionic Triton X-100 in aqueous medium. The critical micelle concentrations of binary mixtures were determined by fluorometric study. Using the regular solution theory for the analysis of the experimental data, the attractive nature of interactions and synergistic behavior of gemini surfactant and Triton X-100 mixture were demonstrated. The micelle aggregation number was measured using steady state fluorescence quenching method. The micropolarity, binding constant and dielectric constant of mixed systems were determined from the ratio of peak’s intensity (I ₁/I ₃) in the pyrene fluorescence emission spectrum.     

Protonating polymer oligomers in the gas phase to change fragmentation pathways

Ionization of polymers in mass spectrometry is usually achieved by forming metal ion adducts. The metal ion has been shown by Wesdemiotis to often play a spectator role in the collision-induced dissociation (CID) chemistry of these species, wherein they fragment according to a free-radical mechanism similar to that found in their pyrolysis. The result is a predominance of low-mass ions in the CID mass spectrum. We have changed this behavior by generating protonated oligomers in the gas phase by first forming proton-bound complexes of the oligomers with amino acids or peptides by electrospray ionization. These complexes dissociate first by loss of the amino acid/peptide to form protonated oligomers, which then undergo a unique fragmentation chemistry. In this article we discuss the results for poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(butyl acrylate) (PBA). Initially, protonated PMMA and PBA lose methanol and butanol, respectively, from the side chains of the respective monomers. The resulting PMMA-derived ion then undergoes a series of neutral losses corresponding to 32 and 28 Da, methanol and carbon monoxide. This continues as collision energy increases until a final, carbon-rich backbone ion is formed, which then undergoes a classic hydrocarbon fragmentation pattern. The PBA-derived ions are proposed to fragment by the loss of butylether molecules to form anhydride rings along the oligomer chain. The number of ether molecules lost corresponded to half the number of available side chains in the oligomer. The resulting poly-anhydride ion dissociates by small molecule loss. Mechanisms have been suggested for the fragmentation chemistry of these two classes of oligomers.
