Epoxidation of stilbene using supported gold nanoparticles: cumyl peroxyl radical activation at the gold nanoparticle surface.

2014

The catalytic epoxidation of cis-stilbene using cumene as a solvent in the presence of supported gold nanoparticles (AuNP) yields a mixture of cis and trans-stilbene oxides. EPR and product distribution studies support a new mechanistic proposal where oxygen centred radicals activate the AuNP surface and form active surface oxygen species responsible for the epoxidation products.

Nachweis des di-2-cyanoisopropylperoxides bei der zersetzung von azoisobuttersäuredinitril in gegenwart von sauerstoff

1970

Das Di-2-cyanoisopropylperoxid entsteht in etwa 5-proz. Ausbeute bei der Zersetzung von Azoisobuttersaredinitril unter Sauerstoff in Isobutyronitril als Losungsmittel. Thermisch zerfallt das Peroxid est oberhalb von 120°C mit mesbarer Geschwindigkeit in einer Reaktion erster Ordnung. Die Aktivierungsenergie, in Cumol als Losungsmittel, wurde zu 37,9 kcal · mol−1 bestimmt. Werte fur die Zerfallskonstante bei 140°C sind in Cumol 0,057 h−1, in tert-Butylbenzol 0,073 h−1, in Chlorbenzol 0,18 h−1 und in o-Dichlorbenzol 0,23 h−1. Di-2-cyanoisopropylperoxide is formed when azobisisobutyronitrile is decomposed under oxygen in isobutyronitrile as a solvent. The yield amounts to ca. 5%. Thermal decom…

Solubility and solvation features of native cyclodextrins in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate

2022

The comprehension of the mechanism entailing efficient solvation of cyclodextrins (CD) by green solvents is of great relevance to boost environmentally sustainable usages of smart supramolecular systems. Here, 1-ethyl-3- methylimidazolium acetate, an ecofriendly ionic liquid (IL), is considered as an excellent solvent for native CDs. This IL efficiently dissolves up to 40 wt.% β- and γ-CD already at ambient temperature and X-ray scattering indicates that CDs do not tend to detrimental flocculation under these drastic concentration conditions. Simu- lation techniques reveal the intimate mechanism of CD solvation by the ionic species: while the strong hydrogen bonding acceptor acetate anion i…

Thermische Diels-Alder-Reaktionen mitN-(2-Alkenoyl)-(S)-prolinestern als chiralen Dienophilen in organischen und wäßrigen Reaktionsmedien

1990

Thermal Diels-Alder Reactions with N-(2-Alkenoyl)-(S)-proline Esters as Chiral Dienophiles Cyclopentadiene reacts with N-acryloyl-(S)-proline benzyl and allyl ester in toluene at 0°C to give the bicycloheptene-carboxylic acid amides with a stereoselection of (2S):(2R) = 81:19. In the reactions with the N,N′-fumaroylbis(proline esters) the cycloadducts are formed in high yields and with isomer ratios of up to 97:3. The absolute configuration of N,N′-〈(1R,2R,3R,4S)-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,3-diyldicarbonyl〉bis-[(S)-proline benzyl ester] (6 a) has been determined by an X-ray analysis. In the reactions of the acrylamides with cyclopentadiene and of the fumaramides with cyclopentadiene, isopre…

The domino reaction between 4,6-dinitrobenzofuroxan and cyclopentadiene. Insights on the nature of the molecular mechanism

2004

Abstract The molecular mechanism of the domino reaction between 4,6-dinitrobenzofuroxan, 1 , and cyclopentadiene, Cp, to give the adduct 11 is examined through density functional theory (DFT) calculations at B3LYP/6-31G* level. This domino reaction comprises two consecutive formally [4+2] cycloadditions. The first one is a two-center addition initialized by the nucleophilic attack of Cp to the more electrophilic center of 1 . The subsequent cyclization can take place along two competitive channels associated to the formation of a second C–C bond yielding the formally [2+4] cycloadduct 9 , or a C–O bond yielding the formally [4+2] cycloadduct 10 . The second cycloaddition is a stepwise proce…

Enantio- and Diastereocontrol in Intermolecular Cyclopropanation Reaction of Styrene Catalyzed by Dirhodium(II) Complexes with Bulky ortho-Metalated …

2006

Enantiomerically pure dirhodium(II) complexes with ortho-metalated para-substituted aryl phosphines have been shown to lead to an enantio- and diastereoselective cyclopropanation of styrene with ethyl diazoacetate. Enantioselectivities up to 91% and diastereoselectivities up to 90% are observed for ethyl cis-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate. High enantio- and diastereoselectivities are observed for the synthesis of ethyl cis-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate using water as solvent. Additionally, a (+)-nonlinear effect, (+)-NLE, has been observed and studied in the asymmetric catalytic reaction developed in n-pentane.

Supramolecular Eutecto Gels: Fully Natural Soft Materials

2018

The obtainment of materials featured by high environmental compatibility is one of the main goals of modern research. On this subject, we herein report the first example of supramolecular gel in deep eutectic solvents. In particular, we prepared gels of the L-amino acids isoleucine and tryptophan in choline chloride/phenylacetic acid 1:2. All gel components are readily available and nontoxic. Gels have been fully characterized by standard gelation tests, rheology, X-ray diffraction, morphology and gelation kinetics. Data collected show that gels properties depend on the gelator nature. In particular, gel phases exhibit strong colloidal forces and, this high mechanical resistance, together w…

Environmentally Friendly Eutectogels Comprising l-amino Acids and Deep Eutectic Solvents: Efficient Materials for Wastewater Treatment.

2020

Current concerns for sustainability and the environment make low-impact materials desirable for environmental remediation and, in particular wastewater treatment. We obtained supramolecular gels of l-amino acids in the deep eutectic solvent formed by choline chloride and phenylacetic acid. After gel characterization, and investigating gel-sol transition temperatures, gelation kinetics, rheological properties, and morphology, the gels were applied as sorbents to remove cationic dyes from aqueous solutions. The effects of the pH, dye nature, volume, and concentration of wastewater were analyzed, and the best result was obtained with a l-phenylalanine-based eutectogel. It can be reused for at …
