Actinide heterobimetallic oxides (Th, U): reduction studies

In our laboratories we have been studying the synthesis and reactivity of binary actinide and lanthanide intermetallic compounds. In this work, the air-oxidation of ThCu₂ and AnNi₂ (An = Th, U) was followed by thermogravimetry (TG) and the products were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The heterobimetallic oxides obtained are described by the formulas 2MO·ThO₂ (M = Cu, Ni) and 2NiO·UO₃. The thermogravimetric analysis under hydrogen of these heterobimetallic oxides show one mass loss for 2MO·ThO₂ and two mass losses for 2NiO·UO₃ over a wide range of temperature (293–1273 K). The characterization by XRD shows that the reduction products are 2M·ThO₂ (M = Cu, Ni) and 2Ni·UO₂, with all the actinides in the 4+ oxidation state. The actinide heterobimetallic oxides were described as copper or nickel supported catalysts.     

Barium dichromate [BaCr2O7], a mild reagent for oxidation of alcohols to their corresponding carbonyls in non-aqueous polar aprotic media

Barium dichromate is used as a mild oxidizing agent for the selective conversion of primary and secondary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones, respectively. Over-oxidation does not occur and primary alcohols undergo oxidation to the aldehyde. Primary and secondary benzylic alcohols are oxidized faster and more efficiently.     

Superoxometal-catalyzed co-oxidation of alcohols and nitrous acid with molecular oxygen

A superoxochromium(III) ion, Cr_aqOO²⁺, acts as a catalyst for the co-oxidation of alcohols and nitrous acid with molecular oxygen according to the stoichiometry: CH₃OH+HNO₂+O₂→CH₂O + NO₃⁻ + H₂O+H⁺. The kinetics are second order in [HNO₂] and independent of the concentrations of the superoxochromium catalyst, substrate, and O₂. The proposed mechanism features the disproportionation of HNO₂ to NO and NO₂, both of which react rapidly with Cr_aqOO²⁺. The Cr_aqOO²⁺/NO reaction generates another equivalent of NO₂ and a mole of Cr_aqO²⁺, the active oxidant. The two-electron oxidation of the alcohol by Cr_aqO²⁺ produces Cr_aq²⁺, which reacts rapidly with O₂ to regenerate the catalyst, Cr_aqOO²⁺. The NO₂/Cr_aqOO²⁺ reaction yields the peroxynitrato complex, Cr_aqOONO₂²⁺, in a dead-end equilibrium process that has no effect on the catalytic reaction. The disproportionation of NO₂ yields the final nitrogen-containing product, NO₃⁻, and regenerates an equivalent of HNO₂. Under a fixed set of conditions, the relative catalytic efficiency (CE) of Cr_aqOO²⁺ decreases as its concentration increases owing to the competition between O₂ and Cr_aqOO²⁺ for the intermediate Cr_aq²⁺.     

Oxidation of crystal violet and malachite green in aqueous solutions — a kinetic spectrophotometric study

The reactions of two triphenyl methane (TPM) dyes—crystal violet (CV⁺) and malachite green (MG⁺)—with N₃^• and OH^• radicals were studied by pulse radiolytic kinetic spectrophotometry. The rate constants for the reaction of the cationic dyes (D⁺) with N₃^• are (9.0±0.6)×10⁹ and (3.0±0.2)×10⁹ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹ respectively and those for the reaction with OH^• are obtained as (8.0±0.6)×10⁹ and (1.1±0.1)×10⁹ dm³ mol⁻¹ s⁻¹ respectively. The transient spectra resulting from the oxidation of the dyes were characterized. The time-resolved spectra indicate that the reaction with OH^• radicals initially generates an adduct which subsequently dissociates to form the radical dication D^•2+. The D^•2+ species decay by further reaction with the parent dye.     

Solid-phase synthesis of phenols and pyridinones via arylboronation/oxidation protocol using aryl bromides

A sequence of two known reactions, palladium catalyzed arylboronation of arybromide and subsequent oxidation of arylboronate with oxone, has been carried out to prepare functionalized phenols and pyridin-2(1H)-one which were later loaded on to resin for solid-phase synthesis. Using these resin-bound templates, a number of solid-phase methods were developed to generate libraries of substituted phenols and pyridin-2(1H)-one.

Determination of ammonia based on the electro-oxidation of hydroquinone in dimethylformamide or in the room temperature ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide

The results detail a novel methodology for the electrochemical determination of ammonia based on its interaction with hydroquinone in DMF. It has been shown that ammonia reversibly removes protons from the hydroquinone molecules, thus facilitating the oxidative process with the emergence of a new wave at less positive potentials. The analytical utility of the proposed methodology has been examined with a linear range from 10 to 95 ppm and corresponding limit-of-detection of 4.2 ppm achievable. Finally, the response of hydroquinone in the presence of ammonia has been examined in the room temperature ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluormethylsulfonyl)imide, [EMIM][N(Tf)₂]. Analogous voltammetric waveshapes to that observed in DMF were obtained, thereby confirming the viability of the method in either DMF or [EMIM][N(Tf)₂] as solvent.     

Laccase-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond formation: oxidative dimerization of salicylic esters by air in aqueous solution

The laccase catalyzed oxidative dimerization of salicylic esters, a rare example of a laccase-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond formation, was studied. This reaction allows the use of air as stoichiometric oxidant and proceeds in aqueous solution. The preparative scope and the mechanism of the method, which provides a new and convenient access to functionalized biaryls under mild conditions, were investigated.
