The C6H6.Ti(II)(AlBr4)2 (Ib) catalyst deactivates during the butadiene cyclotrimerization to give a solid containing all titanium (mostly as TiBr3) and a mixture of AlBr3 and RAlBr2 compounds dissolved in benzene. The residual cationic catalytic activity of the deactivated Ib system is due to presence of AlBr3. In contrast to TiCl3, the deactivated Ib system and the model system TiBr3 + AlBr3 are not activated by the addition of EtAlCl2 in the presence of butadiene: the highly active benzenetitanium(II) system is re-constituted only after reduction of TiBr3 with Et3Al followed by the addition of EtAlCl2. The addition of Et2AlBr to Ib accelerates the deactivation of the system. Deactivation products of this system contain mainly Ti(II) species which forms benzenetitanium(II) catalytic system after addition of EtAlCl2. All the EtAlCl2 reactivated systems produce (Z, E, E)-1,5,9-cyclododecatriene with high catalytic stability and considerable selectivity (>90%). This behaviour points to the catalysis by benzenetitanium(II) chloroalane complexes containing only low amount of bromine atoms and ethyl groups.

Pd/C was found to be an efficient and convenient metal catalyst for intramolecular C–H arylation reactions in the synthesis of phenanthridinones and dibenzo-α-pyrones. A variety of phenanthridinones and dibenzo-α-pyrones were synthesized under the highly active catalytic system of Pd/C-KOAc-DMA in moderate to excellent yields. The high catalytic activity, high recyclability, low costs, and ease of removal of Pd/C, combined with its commercial availability, render this protocol attractive for both synthetic and industrial applications.

The correlation between the occurrence state of surface Pd species of Pd/CeO2 for lean CH4 combustion is investigated. Herein, by using a reduction-deposition method, we have synthesized a highly active 0.5% PdO/CeO2-RE catalyst, in which the Pd nanoparticles are evenly dispersed on the CeO2 nanorods CeO2-R. Based on comprehensive characterization, we have revealed that the uniformly dispersed Pd nanoparticles with a particle size distribution of 2.3 ± 0.6 nm are responsible for the generation of PdO and PdxCe1−xO2−δ phase with –Pd2+–O2−–Ce4+– linkage, which can easily provide oxygen vacancies and facilitate the transfer of reactive oxygen species between the CeO2-R and Pd species. As a consequence, the remarkable catalytic activity of 0.5% Pd/CeO2-RE is related to the high concentration of PdO species on the surface of the catalyst and the synergistic interaction between the Pd species and the CeO2 nanorod.

The catalytic activity and high selectivity reported by bimetallic heteroscorpionate acetate zinc complexes in ring-opening copolymerization (ROCOP) reactions involving CO2 as substrate encouraged us to expand their use as catalysts for ROCOP of cyclohexene oxide (CHO) and cyclic anhydrides. Among the catalysts tested for the ROCOP of CHO and phthalic anhydride at different reaction conditions, the most active catalytic system was the combination of complex 3 with bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium as cocatalyst in toluene at 80 °C. Once the optimal catalytic system was determined, the scope in terms of other cyclic anhydrides was broadened. The catalytic system was capable of copolymerizing selectively and efficiently CHO with phthalic, maleic, succinic and naphthalic anhydrides to afford the corresponding polyester materials. The polyesters obtained were characterized by spectroscopic, spectrometric, and calorimetric techniques. Finally, the reaction mechanism of the catalytic system was proposed based on stoichiometric reactions.

ABSTRACT We have previously reported that Nef specifically interacts with a small but highly active subpopulation of p21-activated kinase 2 (PAK2). Here we show that this is due to a transient association of Nef with a PAK2 activation complex within a detergent-insoluble membrane compartment containing the lipid raft marker GM1. The low abundance of this Nef-associated kinase (NAK) complex was found to be due to an autoregulatory mechanism. Although activation of PAK2 was required for assembly of the NAK complex, catalytic activity of PAK2 also promoted dissociation of this complex. Testing different constitutively active PAK2 mutants indicated that the conformation associated with p21-mediated activation rather than kinase activity per se was required for PAK2 to become NAK. Although association with PAK2 is one of the most conserved properties of Nef, we found that the ability to stimulate PAK2 activity differed markedly among divergent Nef alleles, suggesting that PAK2 association and activation are distinct functions of Nef. However, mutations introduced into the p21-binding domain of PAK2 revealed that p21-GTPases are involved in both of these Nef functions and, in addition to promoting PAK2 activation, also help to physically stabilize the NAK complex.

Bulk vanadium-chromium oxide (VCrO) catalyst was prepared and characterized by N2 adsorption, XRD, NH3-TPD, H2-TPR, and Raman spectroscopy. XRD and Raman results showed that the VCrO catalyst was a kind of VV-CrIII composite oxide mainly consisted of crystalline V2O5 and CrVO4-Ⅲ (orthorhombic). NH3-TPD and H2-TPR results revealed that this catalyst had negligible surface acidity, and was easily reduced due to the formation of CrVO4-Ⅲ. Their catalytic activity was evaluated in the ammoxidation of 3-picoline to nicotinonitrile. Catalytic results showed that the bulk VCrO catalyst was highly active and selective; the nicotinonitrile selectivity and yield was up to 96.1%, 88.2% respectively at atmospheric pressure and 360 °C. The high selectivity was related closely to the low surface acidity of the catalyst.
