Stereoselective Hydrosilylation of Enals and Enones Catalysed by Palladium Nanoparticles

2011

A highly versatile and efficient hydrosilylation method by palladium nanoparticle catalysis allows the direct and chemoselective synthesis of 1) enolsilanes of high isomeric purity, 2) saturated aldehydes or ketones, or 3) the corresponding saturated acetals from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes or ketones. The choice of the product is determined by simply switching the solvent from THF to mixtures of THF/water or THF/alcohol.

Zn,Al hydrotalcites calcined at different temperatures: Preparation, characterization and photocatalytic activity in gas–solid regime

2011

Abstract Layered double hydroxides (LDH) containing zinc and aluminium within the brucite-like layers and carbonate as the interlayer anion have been used as precursors for the preparation of mixed metal oxides by calcination. Zinc oxide and the ZnAl 2 O 4 spinel were formed with different degree of crystallinity depending of two parameters, i.e., the Zn 2+ /Al 3+ molar ratio and the calcination temperature (500–800 °C) of the LDH precursor. A pure spinel phase was obtained to remove ZnO upon a basic post-treatment in NaOH solution of the samples calcined at 800 °C. All the samples were tested for the photodegradation of 2-propanol in gas–solid regime. All the samples resulted active as het…

Straight Access to Indoles from Anilines and Ethylene Glycol by Heterogeneous Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Condensation.

2017

The development of original strategies for the preparation of indole derivatives is a major goal in drug design. Herein, we report the first straight access to indoles from anilines and ethylene glycol by heterogeneous catalysis, based on an acceptorless dehydrogenative condensation, under noninert conditions. In order to achieve high selectivity, a combination of Pt/Al2O3 and ZnO have been found to slowly dehydrogenate ethylene glycol generating, after condensation with the amine and tautomeric equilibrium, the corresponding pyrrole-ring unsubstituted indoles.

Palladium-Based Metal Organic Frameworks as Heterogeneous Catalysts for C-C Couplings

2022

Among the various cross coupling reactions, C−C cross coupling reaction has attracted many researchers to investigate in the last four decades. The continuous, constant, and consistent progress in this field fetched a Noble prize in 2010, showing the importance of this reaction in diversified fields. Among the various transition metals studied for this reaction, Pd is one of the metals that has exhibited the highest activity due to its unique features and reactivity. Although Pd-based homogeneous catalyst was the preferred choice for many researchers, the field slowly diverted towards the development of Pd-based heterogeneous catalysts for C−C coupling reactions. This is obviously due to th…

Epoxidation of dibenzocycloalkenes on Ti–Ge-MCM-41 and Ti-SBA-15 catalysts

2005

Abstract Epoxidation of a series of dibenzocycloalkenes: phenanthrene, 5H-dibenzo[ a , e ]cycloheptene, 5H-dibenzo[ a , c ] cycloheptene, 5,6-dihydrodibenzo[ a , e ]cyclo-octene, and dibenzo[ a , e ]cyclooctene with hydrogen peroxide was investigated on Ti- and Ge-modified Ti-incorporated-type mesoporous catalysts including MCM-41 and SBA-15 structures looking for the effect of the porous texture and Ge-promoting on both activity and selectivity to epoxide and H 2 O 2 efficiency. Ti–Ge-MCM-41 catalysts (Si/Ti = 43; Si/Ge = 85 and Si/Ti = 41; Si/Ge = 62) were prepared by a one-pot surfactant-assisted procedure based on the use of a cationic surfactant (CTAB, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide), …

Photo-assisted degradation of 2-propanol in gas–solid regime by using TiO2 impregnated with heteropolyacid H3PW12O40

2009

Abstract Commercial and home prepared TiO2 samples impregnated with tungstophosphoric acid (H3PW12O40) were used for the photo-assisted degradation of 2-propanol in gas–solid regime. The characterization results evidenced a good coverage of the polyoxometalate (POM) onto the surface of TiO2 along with a marginal effect of the presence of the POM on the specific surface area, morphology and cristallinity of the samples. Propene was the main intermediate product revealed in 2-propanol photocatalytic degradation by using as photocatalysts the samples containing the POM, whereas propanone was mainly obtained when the photocatalysts was bare TiO2, both commercial or home prepared. Acetaldehyde w…
