Na₄PMo₁₁VO₄₀-catalyzed one-pot oxidative esterification of benzaldehyde with hydrogen peroxide.

ABSTRACT: The activity of the sodium salts of vanadium-doped phosphomolybdic acid was assessed in the oxidative esterification reaction of benzaldehyde with hydrogen peroxide in alkyl alcohol solutions. The effect of main reaction parameters, such as temperature, catalyst load, vanadium doping level, and reactant stoichiometry, on the conversion and reaction selectivity was investigated. Among the tested heteropoly salts, Na₄PMo₁₁VO₄₀ was the most active and selective catalyst, achieving almost complete conversion of benzaldehyde and high ester selectivity regardless of the alcohol investigated. The efficiency of the catalyst was correlated with its vanadium content. The size of the carbon chain of alcohol and the steric hindrance on the hydroxyl group played a key role in the reaction selectivity. While methyl and ethyl alcohols selectively provided the ester as the main product (ca. 90-95%) and benzoic acid as a subproduct, the other alcohols also afforded acetal, a condensation product, and benzaldehyde peroxide, an oxidation reaction intermediate, as secondary products. The use of an inexpensive, environmentally benign, and atom-efficient oxidant, mild conditions, and short reaction times were the positive aspects of this one-pot process.

One-pot synthesis of VO x /Al 2 O 3 as efficient catalysts for propane dehydrogenation.

Project description:Vanadium oxides, as highly efficiently catalysts, are widely applied in various catalytic reactions, such as the dehydrogenation of light alkanes and epoxidation of alkenes. In this paper, a series of VO x /Al 2 O 3 catalysts were fabricated by the 1-pot method for catalytic propane dehydrogenation. The results indicated that the VO x /Al 2 O 3 catalysts with loading of 10 wt.% vanadium exhibited optimized catalytic performance. The as-prepared catalysts were characterized by N 2 adsorption-desorption, XRD, TEM, H 2 -TPR, and XPS to explore the texture properties, morphology, and electronic environment of vanadium. In addition, several vanadium catalysts were also prepared by the incipient wetness impregnation (IWI) method to compare their catalytic performance with the 1-pot synthesized catalysts. The catalysts synthesized by the 1-pot method exhibited higher selectivity of propylene and longer catalyst lifetime at high propane conversion when compared to the counterpart synthesized by the IWI method.

Electronic Structure of Visible Light-Driven Photocatalyst δ-Bi11VO19 Nanoparticles Synthesized by Thermal Plasma.

Project description:Size confinement for tailoring of electronic structures can in principle be explored for enhancement of photocatalytic properties. In the present work, vanadium-doped bismuth oxide nanoparticles, with an average particle size of 36 nm, are synthesized for the first time, using the thermal plasma method, in large scale with high yield to explore for photocatalytic applications. The electronic and crystallographic structures of the sample are studied experimentally and theoretically. Systematic investigations of the electronic structure of the fluorite type cubic phase of Bi11VO19 nanoparticles are reported for the first time. Enhancement is observed in the photocatalytic activity as compared to other delta phases of bismuth vanadate. The valence band is found to comprise mainly of O 2p states, whereas the conduction band arises from V 3d states giving rise to a band gap value of 2.26 eV. Absence of excess O in δ-Bi2O3 results in shrinking of the band gap because of O 2p, Bi 6s and 6p states from the surrounding atoms at doping sites. Bi11VO19 nanoparticles show an efficient visible light absorption and exhibit excellent photodegradation properties of methylene blue solution under visible light irradiation.

Triphenylphosphine Dibromide: A Simple One-pot Esterification Reagent.

Project description:We report a one-pot, expedient protocol for the conversion of carboxylic acids to their esters using excess triphenylphosphine dibromide, base, and the alcohol. The reaction gave the esterified product in moderate-to-high yields (30-95%). For chiral acids, the reaction proceeded with little or no racemization. Use of a chiral alcohol in this transformation gave the ester with retention of configuration of the stereogenic center. Information is presented indicating that esterification proceeds through the intermediate generation of an acyloxyalkoxyphosphorane and where steric interactions play an important role in the energetics of the reaction.

Tunable resistivity of correlated VO2(A) and VO2(B) via tungsten doping.

Project description:Applications of correlated vanadium dioxides VO2(A) and VO2(B) in electrical devices are limited due to the lack of effective methods for tuning their fundamental properties. We find that the resistivity of VO2(A) and VO2(B) is widely tunable by doping them with tungsten ions. When x < 0.1 in V1-xWxO2(A), the resistivity decreases drastically by four orders of magnitude with increasing x, while that of V1-xWxO2(B) shows the opposite behaviour. Using spectroscopic ellipsometry and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, we propose that correlation effects are modulated by either chemical-strain-induced redistribution of V-V distances or electron-doping-induced band filling in V1-xWxO2(A), while electron scattering induced by disorder plays a more dominant role in V1-xWxO2(B). The tunable resistivity makes correlated VO2(A) and VO2(B) appealing for next-generation electronic devices.

Rapid one-pot radiosynthesis of [carbonyl-11C]formamides from primary amines and [11C]CO2.

Project description:BackgroundFormamides are common motifs of biologically-active compounds (e.g. formylated peptides) and are frequently employed as intermediates to yield a number of other functional groups. A rapid, simple and reliable route to [carbonyl-11C]formamides would enable access to this important class of compounds as in vivo PET imaging agents.ResultsA novel radiolabelling strategy for the synthesis of carbon-11 radiolabelled formamides ([11C]formamides) is presented. The reaction proceeded with the conversion of a primary amine to the corresponding [11C]isocyanate using cyclotron-produced [11C]CO2, a phosphazene base (2-tert-butylimino-2-diethylamino-1,3-dimethylperhydro-1,3,2-diazaphosphorine, BEMP) and phosphoryl chloride (POCl3). The [11C]isocyanate was subsequently reduced to [11C]formamide using sodium borohydride (NaBH4). [11C]Benzyl formamide was obtained with a radiochemical yield (RCY) of 80% in 15?min from end of cyclotron target bombardment and with an activity yield of 12%. This novel method was applied to the radiolabeling of aromatic and aliphatic formamides and the chemotactic amino acid [11C]formyl methionine (RCY?=?48%).ConclusionsThis study demonstrates the feasibility of 11C-formylation of primary amines with the primary synthon [11C]CO2. The reactivity is proportional to the nucleophilicity of the precursor amine. This novel method can be used for the production of biomolecules containing a radiolabelled formyl group.

Na2S-Mediated One-Pot Selective Deoxygenation of α-Hydroxyl Carbonyl Compounds including Natural Products.

Project description:A practical method for the deoxygenation of α-hydroxyl carbonyl compounds under mild reaction conditions is reported here. The use of cheap and easy-to-handle Na2S·9H2O as the reductant in the presence of PPh3 and N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) enables the selective dehydroxylation of α-hydroxyl carbonyl compounds, including ketones, esters, amides, imides and nitrile groups. The synthetic utility is demonstrated by the late-stage deoxygenation of bioactive molecule and complex natural products.

Efficient MoWO3/VO2/MoS2/Si UV Schottky photodetectors; MoS2 optimization and monoclinic VO2 surface modifications.

Project description:The distinctive properties of strongly correlated oxides provide a variety of possibilities for modulating the properties of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides semiconductors; which represent a new class of superior optical and optoelectronic interfacing semiconductors. We report a novel approach to scaling-up molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) by combining the techniques of chemical and physical vapor deposition (CVD and PVD) and interfacing with a thin layer of monoclinic VO2. MoWO3/VO2/MoS2 photodetectors were manufactured at different sputtering times by depositing molybdenum oxide layers using a PVD technique on p-type silicon substrates followed by a sulphurization process in the CVD chamber. The high quality and the excellent structural and absorption properties of MoWO3/VO2/MoS2/Si with MoS2 deposited for 60 s enables its use as an efficient UV photodetector. The electronically coupled monoclinic VO2 layer on MoS2/Si causes a redshift and intensive MoS2 Raman peaks. Interestingly, the incorporation of VO2 dramatically changes the ratio between A-exciton (ground state exciton) and trion photoluminescence intensities of VO2/(30 s)MoS2/Si from <?1 to >?1. By increasing the deposition time of MoS2 from 60 to 180 s, the relative intensity of the B-exciton/A-exciton increases, whereas the lowest ratio at deposition time of 60 s refers to the high quality and low defect densities of the VO2/(60 s)MoS2/Si structure. Both the VO2/(60 s)MoS2/Si trion and A-exciton peaks have higher intensities compared with (60 s) MoS2/Si structure. The MoWO3/VO2/(60 s)MoS2/Si photodetector displays the highest photocurrent gain of 1.6, 4.32?×?108 Jones detectivity, and?~?1.0?×?1010 quantum efficiency at 365 nm. Moreover, the surface roughness and grains mapping are studied and a low semiconducting-metallic phase transition is observed at?~?40 °C.

Two new glaserite-type orthovanadates: Rb2KDy(VO4)2 and Cs1.52K1.48Gd(VO4)2.

Project description:The crystal structures of dirubidium potassium dysprosium bis-(vanadate), Rb2KDy(VO4)2, and caesium potassium gadolinium bis-(vanadate), Cs1.52K1.48Gd(VO4)2, were solved from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. Both compounds, synthesized by the reactive flux method, crystallize in the space group P m1 with the glaserite structure type. VO4 tetra-hedra are linked to DyO6 or GdO6 octa-hedra by common vertices to form sheets stacking along the c axis. The large twelve-coordinate Cs+ or Rb+ cations are sandwiched between these layers in tunnels along the a and b axes, while the K+ cations, surrounded by ten oxygen atoms, are localized in cavities.

Trapping [PMo12O40]3- clusters into pre-synthesized ZIF-67 toward Mo x Co x C particles confined in uniform carbon polyhedrons for efficient overall water splitting.

Project description:Bi-transition metal carbides (BTMCs) are promising in catalytic fields, but the synthesis of small-sized BTMCs remains a challenge. Here, Mo x Co x C (mainly below 20 nm in size) confined in uniform carbon polyhedrons (Mo x Co x C@C) was synthesized based on trapping [PMo12O40]3- (PMo12) clusters into pre-synthesized, uniform ZIF-67 (PMo/ZIF-67). The opening of the windows (0.34 nm) of ZIF-67 cages through heating is essential to allow the trapping of PMo12 into the cages. This trapping route provides a new method to successfully combine POMs and MOFs that can not be effectively combined via traditional POMOF-based (simultaneous assembly) routes. It also has advantages in controlling the uniformity and components of the materials. The size matching of PMo12 (1 nm) and the cages (1.16 nm) of ZIF-67 enables effective contact of the Co and Mo sources, thus giving small-sized Mo x Co x C protected by carbon via calcination. The optimized catalysts showed good performance for water splitting with a low ?10 of 83 mV (295 mV) for the hydrogen (oxygen) evolution reaction, which is superior to those derived from ZIF-67 and precursors from POMOF-based routes. Our results also indicated that the HER activity is determined by the kind of BTMC, and the activity for the OER is relative to the oxygen-containing species formed during the initial OER test.

Influence of low Bi contents on phase transformation properties of VO2 studied in a VO2:Bi thin film library.

Project description:A thin-film materials library in the system V-Bi-O was fabricated by reactive co-sputtering. The composition of Bi relative to V was determined by Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, ranging from 0.06 to 0.84 at% along the library. The VO2 phase M1 was detected by X-ray diffraction over the whole library, however a second phase was observed in the microstructure of films with Bi contents > 0.29 at%. The second phase was determined by electron diffraction to be BiVO4, which suggests that the solubility limit of Bi in VO2 is only ∼0.29 at%. For Bi contents from 0.08 to 0.29 at%, the phase transformation temperatures of VO2:Bi increase from 74.7 to 76.4 °C by 8 K per at% Bi. With X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, the oxidation state of Bi was determined to be 3+. The V5+/V4+ ratio increases with increasing Bi content from 0.10 to 0.84 at%. The similarly increasing tendency of the V5+/V4+ ratio and T c with Bi content suggests that although the ionic radius of Bi3+ is much larger than that of V4+, the charge doping effect and the resulting V5+ are more prominent in regulating the phase transformation behavior of Bi-doped VO2.
