One-pot synthesis of phenol and cyclohexanone from cyclohexylbenzene catalyzed by N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI)

Synthesis of phenol and cyclohexanone in one pot was examined by means of the NHPI-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of cyclohexylbenzene. The aerobic oxidation of cyclohexylbenzene catalyzed by NHPI followed by treatment with sulfuric acid afforded phenol and cyclohexanone in good selectivities. Thus, the reaction of cyclohexylbenzene under atmospheric dioxygen (1 atm) by NHPI at 100 °C for 3 h followed by treatment with 0.3 M sulfuric acid at room temperature for 2 h resulted in phenol and cyclohexanone in 96 and 91% selectivity, respectively, at 25% conversion. This method was successfully extended to the one-pot synthesis of 4-hydroxyacetophenone and cyclohexanone.

Effects of organic solvents on the structure stability of TS-1 for the ammoximation of cyclohexanone

The effects of organic solvents on the ammoximation of cyclohexanone to cyclohexanone oxime with H₂O₂and NH₃ over TS-1 were studied. To investigate the effects of ammonia and organic solvents on the structure stability of the catalyst, TS-1 samples were pretreated under severe conditions in ammonia solution or ammonia solution plus methanol, toluene or t-butanol, respectively, and then characterized bySEM, XRD, FTIR, etc. The results revealed that t-butanol is the best solvent for the ammoximation reaction; ammonia tends to destroy the active sites, -Ti-O-Si- structure in TS-1, but the presence of organic solvents remarkably limits this damaging effect of ammonia.     

Enthalpic interactions between some amino acids and cyclohexanone in aqueous solutions at 298.15 K

The enthalpies of mixing of glycine, l-α-alanine, l-γ-aminobutyric acid, l-α-valine, l-α-serine and l-α-threonine with cyclohexanone in aqueous solutions and their respective enthalpies of dilution have been measured by calorimetry at 298.15 K. Experimental enthalpies of dilution and mixing have been correlated with the virial expansion equation that was obtained with the McMillan-Mayer theory. The enthalpic interaction parameters h_xy, h_xxy and h_xyy of the amino acids studied with cyclohexanone in aqueous solutions have been evaluated, and the heterotactic enthalpic pair interaction coefficients (h_xy) are discussed in terms of solute-solute interactions.     

Deactivation and regeneration of the B2O3/TiO2-ZrO2 catalyst in the vapor phase Beckmann rearrangement of cyclohexanone oxime

The deactivation and regeneration of B₂O₃/TiO₂-ZrO₂ catalyst for the vapor phase Beckmann rearrangement of cyclohexanone oxime to -caprolactam were studied. The fresh, deactivated and regenerated catalysts were characterized by using adsorption of nitrogen, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry (TG) and NH₃-temperature-programmed desorption (NH₃-TPD) techniques. The crystal structure and pore size distribution of the catalyst were retained after reaction, but the number of acid sites decreased significantly. There was a relationship between the amount of coke deposited on the catalyst and the decline in catalytic activity. These results suggest that the coke deposition on the surface of catalyst is mainly responsible for the catalyst deactivation. The catalytic activity can be recovered completely after calcining the deactivated catalyst in air flow at 600 °C for 8 h.     

Electronic structure theory investigation on the electrochemical properties of cyclohexanone derivatives as organic carbonyl-based cathode material for lithium-ion batteries

Organic carbonyl-based compounds with redox-active site have recently gained full attention as organic cathode material in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to its high cyclability, low cost, high abundance, tunability of their chemical structure compared to traditionally used inorganic material. However, the utilization of organic carbonyl-based compounds in LIBs is limited to its poor charge capacity and dissolution of lower molecular weight species in electrolytes. In this study, we theoretically investigated five set of cyclohexanone derivatives (denoted as: H₁, H₂, H₃, H₄, and H₅) and influence of functional groups (-F and -NH₂) on their electrochemical properties using advanced level density functional theory (DFT) with the Perdew-Burke-Ernzenhof hybrid functional (PBE0) at 6-31+G(d,p) basis set. In line with the result gotten, the HOMO-LUMO results revealed that compound H₅ is the most reactive among the studied cyclohexanone derivatives exhibiting energy gap values of 0.552, 0.532, 0.772 eV for free optimized structures and structurally engineered structures with electron withdrawing group (EWG) and electron donating group (EDG) respectively. Also, results from electrochemical properties of the studied compounds lithiated with only one lithium atom displayed that compound H₂ exhibited interesting redox potential and energy density for all the studied structures in free optimized state (1108.28 W h kg^?1, 4.92 V vs Li/Li⁺), with EWG (648.22 W h kg^?1, 3.313 V Li/Li⁺), and with EDG (1002.4 W h kg^?1, 5.011 V vs Li/Li⁺). From our result, we can infer that compound H₂ and H₃ with corresponding redox potential, energy density and theoretical charge capacity value of 4.92 V vs Li/Li⁺, 1108.28 W h kg^?1, 225.26 mA h g^?1 and 5.168 V, 1041.61 W h kg^?1, 201.55 mA h g^?1 lithiated with only one lithium atom in free optimized state are the most suitable compounds to be employed as organic cathode material in lithium-ion batteries among all the investigated cyclohexanone derivatives.

Valorization of Madagascar’s CNSL via the synthesis of one advanced intermediate (3-Pentadecylcyclohexanone)

A unique advanced intermediate: 3-Pentadecylcyclohexanone was synthetized from the crude product which contained a mixture of cardanol, cardol and 2-methylcardol, which was hydrogenated onto Pd/C at 80 °C. From this alkylated cyclohexanone: C15 alkylated adipic acid, caprolactam, caprolactone, were synthetized in high yields, such products may have many potentially applications in polymer chemistry. The condensation of the 3-pentadecyl-cyclohexanone and triethylene glycol in oxidative or reductive conditions gave aryl ether and cyclohexyl ether, this may be a way to prepare intermediate for surfactant chemistry. Therefore we show that Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (CNSL) may lead to numerous useful compounds thank to the preparation of a unique advanced intermediate.
