Continuous Bioinspired Oxidation of Sulfides.

ABSTRACT: A simple, efficient, and selective oxidation under flow conditions of sulfides into their corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones is reported herein, using as a catalyst perselenic acid generated in situ by the oxidation of selenium (IV) oxide in a diluted aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide as the final oxidant. The scope of the proposed methodology was investigated using aryl alkyl sulfides, aryl vinyl sulfides, and dialkyl sulfides as substrates, evidencing, in general, a good applicability. The scaled-up synthesis of (methylsulfonyl)benzene was also demonstrated, leading to its gram-scale preparation.

Continuous Flow Sodiation of Substituted Acrylonitriles, Alkenyl Sulfides and Acrylates.

Project description:The sodiation of substituted acrylonitriles and alkenyl sulfides in a continuous flow set-up using NaDA (sodium diisopropylamide) in EtNMe2 or NaTMP (sodium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide)⋅TMEDA in n-hexane provides sodiated acrylonitriles and alkenyl sulfides, which are subsequently trapped in batch with various electrophiles such as aldehydes, ketones, disulfides and allylic bromides affording functionalized acrylonitriles and alkenyl sulfides. This flow-procedure was successfully extended to other acrylates by using Barbier-type conditions.

Catalytic oxidation of Li2S on the surface of metal sulfides for Li-S batteries.

Project description:Polysulfide binding and trapping to prevent dissolution into the electrolyte by a variety of materials has been well studied in Li-S batteries. Here we discover that some of those materials can play an important role as an activation catalyst to facilitate oxidation of the discharge product, Li2S, back to the charge product, sulfur. Combining theoretical calculations and experimental design, we select a series of metal sulfides as a model system to identify the key parameters in determining the energy barrier for Li2S oxidation and polysulfide adsorption. We demonstrate that the Li2S decomposition energy barrier is associated with the binding between isolated Li ions and the sulfur in sulfides; this is the main reason that sulfide materials can induce lower overpotential compared with commonly used carbon materials. Fundamental understanding of this reaction process is a crucial step toward rational design and screening of materials to achieve high reversible capacity and long cycle life in Li-S batteries.

Zr-Based Metal-Organic Frameworks with Phosphoric Acids for the Photo-Oxidation of Sulfides.

Project description:Heterogeneous Brønsted acidic catalysts such as phosphoric acids are the conventional activators for organic transformations. However, the photocatalytic performance of these catalysts is still rarely explored. Herein, a novel Zr-based metal-organic framework Zr-MOF-P with phosphoric acids as a heterogeneous photocatalyst has been fabricated, which shows high selectivity and reactivity towards the photo-oxidation of sulfides under white light illumination. A mechanism study indicates that the selective oxygenation of sulfides occurs with triplet oxygen rather than common reactive oxygen species (ROS). When Zr-MOF-P is irradiated, the hydroxyl group of phosphoric acid is converted into oxygen radical, which takes an electron from the sulfides, and then the activated substrates react with the triplet oxygen to form sulfoxides, avoiding the destruction of the catalysts and endowing the reaction with high substrate compatibility and fine recyclability.

Rhodamine B oxidation promoted by P450-bioinspired Jacobsen catalysts/cellulose systems.

Project description:In this work, we investigated the preparation of P450-bioinspired Mn(iii)-Schiff base complexes supported on DEAE-cellulose ((R,R)-Jacobsen/Cell(NEt2) and (S,S)-Jacobsen/Cell(NEt2), respectively) to oxidize substrates of biological interest. Catalysts were characterized by several physical techniques. UV-Vis spectroscopy with diffuse reflectance (DR/UV-Vis) analysis featured peculiar electronic transitions for both complexes. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra evidenced the characteristic band of imine groups (HC[double bond, length as m-dash]N) for bioinspired/Cell(NEt2) materials. Immobilization ratios in cellulose fibres were confirmed by atomic absorption spectroscopic (GF-AAS) analyses. Catalytic essays were conducted during rhodamine B (RhB) oxidation. Supported materials attained oxidative yields close to those of homogeneous systems, and cellulose may be stabilizing the active intermediate catalytic species. Reactions may be driven through two different intermediates: MnV(O) and MnIII(O-OH)salen. Homogeneous reactions suggest an asymmetric catalysis. Heterogeneous system reaction yields are similar, and salen complexes anchored on cellulose conformation would interfere on complex intermediate species configuration. The four possible RhB-oxidation products obtained by the reaction with the homogeneous (S,S)-Jacobsen catalyst and meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA) system were suggested by 1H NMR analysis, and a catalytic mechanism was proposed.

Coordination unsaturation of vanadium nitride quantum dots boosts low-temperature aerobic oxidation of thiophenic sulfides.

Project description:Aerobic oxidative desulfurization (AODS) promises a sustainable alternative technology for diesel desulfurization, which necessitates the efficient aerobic oxidation of thiophenic sulfides under mild conditions to minimize energy input, yet being longstandingly plagued by the grand challenge in low-temperature activation of triplet oxygen. Here we synthesize vanadium nitride quantum dots on graphene to controllably create coordination-unsaturated edge/corner V sites for boosting the AODS reaction. The catalyst activates the reaction at 70 °C, and is two orders of magnitude more active than the best V-based catalysts. We demonstrate through computational studies that the low-coordinated edge/corner V sites can effectively activate oxygen and adsorb sulfides to lower the activation barrier, dramatically enhancing the activity. The catalyst achieves deep AODS of real diesel at 80 °C with negligible attenuation in successive reuses, which highlights its attractive industrial potential. These findings provide scientific and practical insights to develop high-performance catalysts for a sustainable AODS process.

Recent Advances in Catalytic Oxidation of Organic Sulfides: Applications of Metal-Ionic Liquid Catalytic Systems.

Project description:Catalytic oxidation of organic sulfides is of considerable significance in industrial chemistry and fuel industry. Therefore, numerous methods have been developed for the oxidation. Metal-containing ionic liquid-based catalysts can catalyze the selective oxidation reactions and are highly used in chemical processes, which have also been used as effective solvents, reaction media, extractants, and catalysts for the oxidation of organic sulfides including oxidative desulfurization of fuel oil. Recently, much attention is being drawn to the preparation of heterogenous catalysts based on the immobilization of metal- or nonmetal-containing ILs on diverse solid supports, which can be easily separated after the completion reaction and recycled. Therefore, there is still an increasing interest in developing new and efficient catalytic procedures for the oxidation of organic sulfides. In this review, we have outlined the recent advances in catalytic oxidation of organic sulfides including oxidative desulfurization of fuel oil. The versatilities and adaptabilities of metal-ionic liquid catalytic systems in the selective oxidation of sulfides are considered a powerful research field in these transformations.

Expanding the Use of Peroxygenase from Oat Flour in Organic Synthesis: Enantioselective Oxidation of Sulfides

Project description:Biocatalyzed oxidations are an important target in sustainable synthesis since chemical oxidations often require harsh conditions and metal-based catalysts. A raw peroxygenase-containing enzymatic preparation from oat flour was tested as a biocatalyst for the enantioselective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and the variations of some reaction parameters were evaluated. Under optimal conditions, thioanisole was fully converted into the corresponding (R)-sulfoxide with high optical purity (80% ee) and the same stereopreference was maintained in the oxidation of some other sulfides. Changes in the substituent on the sulfur atom affected the selectivity of the enzyme and the best results were obtained with phenyl methoxymethyl sulfide, which gave the corresponding sulfoxide in 92% ee as exclusive product. The over-oxidation of sulfides to sulfones was instead detected in all the other cases and preferential oxidation of the (S)-enantiomer of the sulfoxide intermediate was observed, albeit with low selectivity. Carrying out the oxidation of thioanisole up to the 29% formation of sulfone led to enhancement of the sulfoxide optical purity (89% ee). The activity in sulfoxidation reactions, in addition to that reported in the epoxidation of different substrates, makes this plant peroxygenase a promising and useful tool in organic synthesis.

Synergistic photocatalytic aerobic oxidation of sulfides and amines on TiO2 under visible-light irradiation.

Project description:Selective photocatalytic aerobic oxidation, which can be conducted under ambient conditions, is of great importance towards achieving sustainable chemistry. However, its practical applications are undermined by several challenges, such as low selectivity, sluggish reaction rates, and the requirement of UV light irradiation. Herein, we report a new concept of synergistic photocatalytic oxidation, for which two seemingly irrelevant reactions can be achieved in one photocatalytic system through the synergistic interplay of reactants and catalyst. As proof of concept, two challenging reactions, the aerobic oxidation of sulfide and the aerobic oxidative formylation of amine with methanol, were employed to demonstrate such synergistic photocatalytic aerobic oxidation under visible-light irradiation. This work could pave the way for highly selective photoredox catalysis via rational design based on mechanistic insight.

Two New Sandwich-Type Polyoxomolybdates Functionalized with Diphosphonates: Efficient and Selective Oxidation of Sulfides to Sulfones.

Project description:Two sandwich-type polyoxomolybdates Na₈[MO₂{Mo₂O₅(O₃PCH₃C(O)PO₃)}₂] (M = Ni2+ (1); Co2+ (2)) were synthesized by one-pot reaction of Na₂HPMo12O40·14H₂O, 1-hydroxy ethidene diphosphonic acid (HEDP=HOC(CH₃)(PO₃H₂)₂), and (1) NiCl₂/CoCl₂ (2). Compounds 1 and 2 were characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis, X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), IR spectroscopy, 31P NMR spectra, UV-vis spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA). Structural analysis reveals that 1 and 2 exhibit similar centrosymmetric structure, which consists of one transition metal (TM) ion sandwiched by two same subunits {Mo₂O₅(O₃PCH₃C(O)PO₃)}. The clusters 1 and 2 show efficient catalytic activities for oxidation of thioanisole. Moreover, they are catalytically selective for oxidizing thioanisole. Both resuable polyoxomolybdates 1 and 2 catalysts show good thermo- and hydrolytic stability. It is noted that compound 1 shows outstanding catalytic activity for oxidation of various sulfides to corresponding sulfones with 93-100% selectivity at 97-100% conversion in one hour under mild conditions, which is potentially valuable to the removal of organic sulfides.

Integrating hydrogen production with anodic selective oxidation of sulfides over a CoFe layered double hydroxide electrode.

Project description:Replacing the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with oxidation reactions for the synthesis of complex pharmaceutical molecules coupled with enhanced hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is highly attractive, but it is rarely explored. Here, we report an electrochemical protocol for selective oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides over a CoFe layered double hydroxide (CoFe-LDH) anode in an aqueous-MeCN electrolyte, coupled with 2-fold promoted cathodic H2 productivity. This protocol displays high activity (85-96% yields), catalyst stability (10 cycles), and generality (12 examples) in selective sulfide oxidation. We demonstrate its applicability in the synthesis of four important pharmaceutical related sulfoxide compounds with scalability (up to 1.79 g). X-ray spectroscopy investigations reveal that the CoFe-LDH material evolved into amorphous CoFe-oxyhydroxide under catalytic conditions. This work may pave the way towards sustainable organic synthesis of valuable pharmaceuticals coupled with H2 production.
