Selective Photooxidation Reactions using Water-Soluble Anthraquinone Photocatalysts.

ABSTRACT: The aerobic organocatalytic oxidation of alcohols was achieved by using water-soluble sodium anthraquinone sulfonate. Under visible-light activation, this catalyst mediated the aerobic oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones. The photo-oxyfunctionalization of alkanes was also possible under these conditions.

Water-Soluble Anthraquinone Photocatalysts Enable Methanol-Driven Enzymatic Halogenation and Hydroxylation Reactions.

Project description:Peroxyzymes simply use H2O2 as a cosubstrate to oxidize a broad range of inert C-H bonds. The lability of many peroxyzymes against H2O2 can be addressed by a controlled supply of H2O2, ideally in situ. Here, we report a simple, robust, and water-soluble anthraquinone sulfonate (SAS) as a promising organophotocatalyst to drive both haloperoxidase-catalyzed halogenation and peroxygenase-catalyzed oxyfunctionalization reactions. Simple alcohols, methanol in particular, can be used both as a cosolvent and an electron donor for H2O2 generation. Very promising turnover numbers for the biocatalysts of up to 318 000 have been achieved.

Selective aerobic oxidation reactions using a combination of photocatalytic water oxidation and enzymatic oxyfunctionalisations.

Project description:Peroxygenases offer attractive means to address challenges in selective oxyfunctionalisation chemistry. Despite their attractiveness, the application of peroxygenases in synthetic chemistry remains challenging due to their facile inactivation by the stoichiometric oxidant (H2O2). Often atom inefficient peroxide generation systems are required, which show little potential for large scale implementation. Here we show that visible light-driven, catalytic water oxidation can be used for in situ generation of H2O2 from water, rendering the peroxygenase catalytically active. In this way the stereoselective oxyfunctionalisation of hydrocarbons can be achieved by simply using the catalytic system, water and visible light.

Overall water splitting by Pt/g-C3N4 photocatalysts without using sacrificial agents.

Project description:We report the direct splitting of pure water by light-excited graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) modified with Pt, PtO x , and CoO x as redox cocatalysts, while pure g-C3N4 is virtually inactive for overall water splitting by photocatalysis. The novelty is in the selective creation of both H2 and O2 cocatalysts on surface active sites of g-C3N4via photodeposition triggering the splitting of water for the simultaneous evolution of H2 and O2 gases in a stoichiometric ratio of 2?:?1, irradiated with light, without using any sacrificial reagents. The photocatalyst was stable for 510 hours of reaction.

Selective photocatalytic hydroxylation and epoxidation reactions by an iron complex using water as the oxygen source.

Project description:The iron complex [(bTAML)FeIII-OH2]- (1) selectively catalyses the photocatalytic hydroxylation and epoxidation reactions of alkanes and alkenes, respectively, using water as the oxygen-atom source. Upon the oxidation of unactivated alkanes, which included several substrates including natural products, hydroxylation was observed mostly at the 3° C-H bonds with 3°?:?2° selectivity up to ?100?:?1. When alkenes were used as the substrates, epoxides were predominantly formed with high yields. In the presence of H218O, more than 90% of the 18O-labelled oxygen atoms were incorporated into the hydroxylated and epoxide product indicating that water was the primary oxygen source. Mechanistic studies indicate the formation of an active [{(bTAML)FeIV}2-?-oxo]2- (2) dimer from the starting complex 1via PCET. The subsequent disproportionation of 2 upon addition of substrate, leading to the formation of FeV(O), renders the high selectivity observed in these reactions.

Alcohol-Selective Oxidation in Water under Mild Conditions via a Novel Approach to Hybrid Composite Photocatalysts.

Project description:The oxidation of alcohols to carbonyl compounds in a clean fashion (i.e., with water as a solvent or under solvent-free conditions, and using O2 or H2O2 as the primary oxidant) is the subject of considerable research efforts. A new approach for the selective oxidation of soluble aromatic alcohols in water under mild conditions via a novel composite photocatalyst has been developed. The catalyst is synthesized by grafting 4-(4-(4-hydroxyphenylimino)cyclohexa-2,5dienylideneamino)phenol and silver nanoparticles onto the surface of moderately crystalline titanium dioxide. The titanium dioxide-based composite was first extensively characterized and then employed in the catalytic oxidation of 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol to 4-methoxybenzaldehyde under UV irradiation in water at room temperature. The corresponding aldehyde was obtained with unprecedented high selectivity (up to 86?%). The method is general and opens the route to fabrication of photocatalytic composites based on titanium dioxide functionalized with shuttle organic molecules and metal nanoparticles for a variety of oxidative conversions.

Fluorescent water soluble polymers for isozyme-selective interactions with matrix metalloproteinase-9.

Project description:Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are overexpressed in various pathological conditions, including cancers. Although these isozymes have similar active sites, the patterns of exposed amino acids on their surfaces are different. Herein, we report the synthesis and molecular interactions of two water soluble, fluorescent polymers which demonstrate selective interactions with MMP-9 compared to MMP-7 and -10.

Water soluble acyloxy nitroso compounds: HNO release and reactions with heme and thiol containing proteins.

Project description:Nitroxyl (HNO) has gained interest as a potential treatment of congestive heart failure through the ability of the HNO donor, Angeli's salt (AS), to evoke positive inotropic effects in canine cardiac muscle. The release of nitrite during decomposition limits the use of AS requiring other HNO sources. Acyloxy nitroso compounds liberate HNO and small amounts of nitrite upon hydrolysis and the synthesis of the water-soluble 4-nitrosotetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl acetate and pivalate allows for pig liver esterase (PLE)-catalysis increasing the rate of decomposition and HNO release. The pivalate derivative does not release HNO, but the addition of PLE catalyzes hydrolysis (t(1/2)=39 min) and HNO formation (65% after 30 min). In the presence of PLE, this compound converts metmyoglobin (MetMb) to iron nitrosyl Mb and oxyMb to metMb indicating that these compounds only react with heme proteins as HNO donors. The pivalate in the presence and the absence of PLE inhibits aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) with IC(50) values of 3.5 and 3.3 ?M, respectively, in a time-dependent manner. Reversibility assays reveal reversible inhibition of ALDH in the absence of PLE and partially irreversible inhibition with PLE. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) reveals formation of a disulfide upon incubation of an ALDH peptide without PLE and a mixture of disulfide and sulfinamide in the presence of PLE. A dehydroalanine residue forms upon incubation of this peptide with excess AS. These results identify acyloxy nitroso compounds as unique HNO donors capable of thiol modification through direct electrophilic reaction or HNO release.

Iron-Catalyzed Selective Etherification and Transetherification Reactions Using Alcohols.

Project description:Simple and readily available iron(III) triflate turned out to be a cheap, environmentally benign, and efficient catalyst for the direct etherification of alcohols. The use of ammonium chloride as an additive (5 mol %, 1 equiv relative to catalyst) suppressed the side reactions completely and ensured the selective ether formation even on challenging substrates containing electron-donating substituents. This method allows the selective synthesis of symmetrical ethers from benzylic secondary alcohols and unsymmetrical ethers directly from secondary and primary alcohols. Moreover, transetherification of symmetrical ethers using primary alcohols is attained. The reaction progress of symmetrical ether and unsymmetrical ether formation followed zero-order and first-order kinetics, respectively. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements of the reaction mixture and simple iron(III) triflate clearly indicated that oxidation state of the metal center remains same throughout the catalysis. Mechanistic studies confirmed that the unsymmetrical ether formation occurs via the in situ formed symmetrical ethers.

Water-Soluble Polymeric Carbon Nitride Colloidal Nanoparticles for Highly Selective Quasi-Homogeneous Photocatalysis.

Project description:Heptazine-based polymeric carbon nitrides (PCN) are promising photocatalysts for light-driven redox transformations. However, their activity is hampered by low surface area resulting in low concentration of accessible active sites. Herein, we report a bottom-up preparation of PCN nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution (ca. 10±3?nm), which are fully soluble in water showing no gelation or precipitation over several months. They allow photocatalysis to be carried out under quasi-homogeneous conditions. The superior performance of water-soluble PCN, compared to conventional solid PCN, is shown in photocatalytic H2 O2 production via reduction of oxygen accompanied by highly selective photooxidation of 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol and benzyl alcohol or lignocellulose-derived feedstock (ethanol, glycerol, glucose). The dissolved photocatalyst can be easily recovered and re-dissolved by simple modulation of the ionic strength of the medium, without any loss of activity and selectivity.

Nanoporous Films and Nanostructure Arrays Created by Selective Dissolution of Water-Soluble Materials.

Project description:Highly porous thin films and nanostructure arrays are created by a simple process of selective dissolution of a water-soluble material, Sr3Al2O6. Heteroepitaxial nanocomposite films with self-separated phases of a target material and Sr3Al2O6 are first prepared by physical vapor deposition. NiO, ZnO, and Ni1- x Mg x O are used as the target materials. Only the Sr3Al2O6 phase in each nanocomposite film is selectively dissolved by dipping the film in water for 30 s at room temperature. This gentle and fast method minimizes damage to the remaining target materials and side reactions that can generate impurity phases. The morphologies and dimensions of the pores and nanostructures are controlled by the relative wettability of the separated phases on the growth substrates. The supercapacitor properties of the porous NiO films are enhanced compared to plain NiO films. The method can also be used to prepare porous films or nanostructure arrays of other oxides, metals, chalcogenides, and nitrides, as well as films or nanostructures with single-crystalline, polycrystalline, or amorphous nature.
