Reactions of 1-methylbicyclo[4,1,0]heptane with hydrogen over palladium and platinum catalysts supported on pumice are described. Pretreatment of these catalysts with halogen-containing compounds greatly changes the product distribution, and the mechanism of halogen influence is discussed.

The product distributions from reactions of 3-methylnortricyclene with hydrogen over palladium or platinum catalysts supported on silica or pumice vary significantly after treatment of the catalyst with small amounts of halogen-containing compounds. Evidence is presented, including deuterium distribution studies utilizing 2H N.M.R., that these changes in products are associated with intermediates which have greater sp2 character at the reacting carbon atoms and that the formation of intermediates is not simply associated with an increase in catalyst acidity.

Transition metal catalysts play an important role for synthesis of industrially and laboratory important organic fine chemicals to control the selectivity, activity and stability. In this review, we focus on mainly transition metal based supported catalyst, mainly oxide supported catalyst for heterogeneous catalytic hydrogenation and oxidation of some synthetically important organic molecules. First we discuss the industrially important catalytic organic synthetic reactions. This is followed by the role of supported metal catalysts in the heterogeneous synthetic catalytic reactions with specific attention to hydrogenation and oxidation of organic molecules. The role of base metals and noble metals in monometallic and bimetallic catalysts are then discussed. Some synthetic routes for preparation of oxide supported metal catalysts are also discussed. Finally, a general discussion of the metal-support interaction (MSI) in oxide supported metal catalysts is made.

Vanillin is one of the most commonly used natural products, which can also be produced from lignin-derived feedstocks. The chemical synthesis of vanillin is well-established in large-scale production from petrochemical-based starting materials. To overcome this problem, lignin-derived monomers (such as eugenol, isoeugenol, ferulic acid etc.) have been effectively used in the past few years. However, selective and efficient production of vanillin from these feedstocks still remains an issue to replace the existing process. In this work, new transition metal-based catalysts were proposed to investigate their efficiency in vanillin production. Reduced graphene oxide supported Fe and Co catalysts showed high conversion of isoeugenol under mild reaction conditions using H2O2 as oxidizing agent. Fe catalysts were more selective as compared to Co catalysts, providing a 63% vanillin selectivity at 61% conversion in 2 h. The mechanochemical process was demonstrated as an effective approach to prepare supported metal catalysts that exhibited high activity for the production of vanillin from isoeugenol.

AbstractThis Account discusses several new reaction methods developed in our group that utilize sulfur-mediated reactions through sulfonium salts and ylides, highlighting the interplay of rational design and serendipity. Our initial goal was to convert aliphatic C–H bonds into C–C bonds site-selectively, and without the use of transition-metal catalysts. While a proof-of-concept has been achieved, this target is far from being ideally realized. The unexpected discovery of an anti-Markovnikov rearrangement and subsequent studies on difunctionalization of alkynes were much more straightforward, and eventually led to the new possibility of asymmetric N–H insertion of sulfonium ylides through Brønsted acid catalysis.1 Introduction2 Allylic/Propargylic C–H Functionalization3 Anti-Markovnikov Rearrangement4 Difunctionalization of Alkynes5 Asymmetric N–H Insertion of Sulfonium Ylides6 Conclusion

AbstractThe use of a high-brightness field emission gun and novel secondary electron detection systems makes it possible to acquire nanometer-resolution surface images of bulk materials, even at low electron beam voltages. The advantages of low-voltage SEM include enhanced surface sensitivity, reduced sample charging on non-conducting materials, and significantly reduced electron range and interaction volume. High-resolution images formed by collecting the backscattered electron signal can give information about the size and spatial distribution of metal nanoparticles in supported catalysts. Low-voltage XEDS can provide compositional information of bulk samples with enhanced surface sensitivity and significantly improved spatial resolution. High-resolution SEM techniques enhance our ability to detect and, subsequently, analyze the composition of nanoparticles in supported metal catalysts. Applications of high-resolution SEM imaging and microanalysis techniques to the study of industrial supported catalysts are discussed.
