Al nanoparticles have been prepared via catalytic decomposition. The influence of various reaction parameters on their size and morphology was studied. The reaction was optimized towards short reaction times, small particle sizes, and mild conditions.

<p>Here we report the synthesis, characterization and activity of tunable Pd-doped hydrotalcites (Pd-HTs) for the decarbonylation of furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes under microwave conditions. The decarbonylation activity reported is a notable improvement over prior heterogeneous catalysts for this process. Furfural decarbonylation is optimized in a benign solvent compatible with biomass processing - ethanol, under relatively mild conditions and short reaction times. HMF selectively affords excellent yields of furfuryl alcohol with no humin formation, but longer reaction can also afford furan via tandem alcohol dehydrogenation and decarbonylation. Yields of substituted benzaldehydes are related to calculated Mulliken charge of the carbonyl carbon. The activity and selectivity differences can be traced to loading-dependent differences in Pd speciation on the catalysts. Poisoning studies show inverse correlation between Pd loading and metal leaching: Pd-HTs with lowest Pd loading, which consist of highly dispersed and oxidized Pd species, operate heterogeneously with negligible metal leaching. Recycling experiments are consistent with this trend, offering potential for further optimization to improve robustness.</p>

A series of symmetrical 1,4-disubstituted buta-1,3-diynes is prepared with excellent yields (up to 95%) through homocoupling of terminal alkynes catalyzed by a copper salt under solvent-free conditions. This method provides an environmentally friendly process to prepare 1,3-diynes in short reaction times under mild conditions. Furthermore, the method is suitable for a wide substrate scope and has excellent functional group compatibility. The reaction can also be scaled up to gram level.

AbstractSurface passivation of unpassivated Al nanoparticles has been realized using self assembled monolayers (SAMs). Nanoscale Al particles were prepared in solution by catalytic decomposition of H3Al•NMe3 or H3Al•N(Me)Pyr by Ti(OiPr)4 and coated in situ using a perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid SAM. Because the Al particles are prepared using wet chemistry techniques and coated in solution, they are free of oxygen passivation. This SAM coating passivates the aluminum and seems to prevent the oxidation of the particles in air and renders the composite material, to some extent, soluble in polar organic solvents such as diethyl ether. Characterization data including SEM, TEM, TGA, and ATR-FTIR of prepared materials is presented.

An efficient method for nucleophilic aromatic substitution on 7-azaindoles has been developed. The reaction is facilitated by the unique dual influence of SEM as both protecting and activating group, permitting mild conditions and short reaction times that are compatible with sensitive functional groups. The method is suitable for the synthesis of a broad range of products, most notably ethers.

AgCl microparticle materials, with novel heart-like morphology, were successfully prepared by means of a simple solution phase route, in which a small amount of hydrochloric acid, ethylene and PVP were introduced to the conventional polyol process. The obtained microparticle materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), and UV-Vis absorption spectrum. SEM images show that the obtained AgCl microparticle materials have heart-like morphology with an average diameter of 3 um. The influence of different reaction times on size and morphology of the microparticle materials were also investigated. A possible growth mechanism of AgCl microparticle materials has been proposed on the basis of experimental results and analysis. The as-prepared AgCl microparticle materials would find possible potential applications in photocatalytic fields.
