Efficient catalysis in dynamic nanomicelles of PS-750-M suspended in water

This review demonstrates the multiple roles of surfactants in aqueous micellar catalysis. It covers the design and recent applications of proline-based amphiphile PS-750-M, including completely organic solvent-free amide couplings, C–H fluorination of arenes and heteroarenes achieved via radical pathway facilitated by the shielding effect of micelles. In addition, it critically sheds light on selective hydrogenolysis and cross-couplings of water-sensitive acid chlorides in water, catalyzed by phosphine ligand-free Pd (0) nanoparticles. The metal-micelle interaction responsible for catalytic activities as probed by various spectroscopic techniques is also discussed.     

Synthesis of 2-substituted indoles by palladium-catalyzed heteroannulation with Pd-NaY zeolite catalysts

Various 2-substituted indoles were prepared by heteroannulation of o-iodoanilines and terminal alkynes in a one-pot reaction with a Pd(II)-NaY zeolite catalyst. The product formation largely depended on the solvent, base, and reaction temperature. The recycled catalyst showed good reusability in the heteroannulation reaction.     

Strained silacycle-catalyzed asymmetric Diels-Alder cycloadditions: the first highly enantioselective silicon Lewis acid catalyst

The first highly enantioselective silicon Lewis acid catalyst for an asymmetric organic transformation has been developed. The catalyst derives its activity from the strain induced in the silicon center by virtue of being constrained in a five-membered ring. A simple tridentate ligand has been developed and the derived chlorosilane complex catalyzes the Diels-Alder cycloaddition of methacrolein and cyclopentadiene with 94% ee.     

Molecular programming of organogelators which can accept [60]fullerene by encapsulation

New porphyrin-based gelators bearing eight hydrogen-bond-forming amide groups at their periphery were synthesized. They acted as versatile gelators for aromatic solvents. SEM and TEM observations and X-ray crystallographic analysis established that they tend to aggregate into a two-dimensional sheet-like structure utilizing the intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interaction. In this structure the porphyrin-porphyrin π-π stacking interaction is not involved because of the energetically-predominant hydrogen-bonding interactions, keeping the space distance of 12.9 Å. Very interestingly, when C₆₀ was added, the morphology was transformed to a one-dimensional fibrous structure, which can enjoy a porphyrin-C₆₀-porphyrin interaction. This multicapsular structure having porphyrin-based compartments for hosting C₆₀ was further characterized by XRD, EPR of a Cu(II) analogue, and the theoretical calculation. Thus, this paper presents a new concept, ‘molecular recognition in gel’, which is effective for the weak host-guest interaction.     

Catalytic air oxidation of ambient temperature hydrocarbons

Catalytic air oxidation of the aliphatic hydrocarbons n-decane, hexanes, gasoline and diesel fuel was conducted at ambient temperature with novel iron catalysts. The concentration of n-decane in water was reduced from 1.42 g in 100 ml to 0.07 g in 100 ml in 5 h at room temperature forming carbon monoxide and water by means of intermediate aldehydes. Results of FT–IR and GC–MS analyses demonstrated formation of aldehydes and unsaturated alcohols. Carbon monoxide was detected on catalyst residues and in the vapor phase. The indicated catalytic reaction mechanisms are discussed.

Na2SnO3系催化剂在甲烷氧化偶联反应中的催化性能及表面碱性的探讨

1982年Keller和Bhasin以金属氧化物为催化剂从甲烷制得少量乙烯和乙烷的工作引起了各国研究工作者的重视,此后报道了许多有研究价值的催化剂,其中添加碱金属对提高催化性能所起的作用引起了普遍的关注.Lunsford等首先用添加Li~+的MgO作催化剂,发现催化剂表面碱性增强的同时,生成C_2烃类产物的选择性明显增加.随后Iwamatu等在MgO中添加Na~+及Rb~+盐,Jones等在Mn~(4+)/SiO_2中添加Na~+,Otsuka等在Sm_2O_3中添加LiCl作为甲烷氧化偶联催化剂进行了研究,这些结果均表明,因添加碱金属使催化剂呈现
