Abstract Background Xylo-oligosaccharide is the spotlight of functional sugar that improves the economic benefits of lignocellulose biorefinery. Acetic acid acidolysis technology provides a promising application for xylo-oligosaccharide commercial production, but it is restricted by the aliphatic (wax-like) compounds, which cover the outer and inner surfaces of plants. Results We removed aliphatic compounds by extraction with two organic solvents. The benzene–ethanol extraction increased the yield of acidolyzed xylo-oligosaccharides of corncob, sugarcane bagasse, wheat straw, and poplar sawdust by 14.79, 21.05, 16.68, and 7.26% while ethanol extraction increased it by 11.88, 17.43, 1.26, and 13.64%, respectively. Conclusion The single ethanol extraction was safer, more environmentally friendly, and more cost-effective than benzene–ethanol solvent. In short, organic solvent extraction provided a promising auxiliary method for the selective acidolysis of herbaceous xylan to xylo-oligosaccharides, while it had minimal impact on woody poplar.

Tropinone (6) was deprotonated with lithium diisopropylamide and with chiral lithium amides (18–24) and the resulting enolates (two enantiomers) were treated with electrophiles. The aldol reaction with benzaldehyde and deuteration were both diastereoselective. The former yielded only one isomer (exo, anti) of the aldol 8a; the latter proceeded from the exo face. This selectivity permitted us to probe the deprotonation of tropinone with lithium amides; it was concluded that the reaction involves predominantly the exo axial protons. The reaction of tropinone enolate with ethyl chloroformate led, via a ring opening, to the cycloheptenone derivative 9. The reaction with methyl cyanoformate yielded, in the presence of silver acetate and acetic acid, the β-ketoester 8b; however, in the absence of these additives, and especially when 12-crown-4 was added to the enolate, a ring opening leading to the pyrrolidine derivative 10 occurred instead. Deprotonation of tropinone with chiral lithium amides proceeded with modest enantioselectivity. A synthesis of non-racemic anhydroecgonine via this strategy allowed establishing the absolute stereochemistry of deprotonation.

AbstractConditions of polyaniline (PANI) nanotubes preparation were analyzed. Aniline was oxidized with ammonium peroxydisulfate in 0.4 M acetic acid. There are two subsequent oxidation steps and the products were collected after each of them. At pH > 3, neutral aniline molecules are oxidized to non-conducting aniline oligomers. These produce templates for the subsequent growth of PANI nanotubes, which takes place preferably at pH 2–3. At pH < 2, granular morphology of the conducting PANI is obtained. High final acidity of the medium should be avoided in the preparation of nanotubes, e.g., by reducing the amount of sulfuric acid which is a by-product. Reduction of the peroxydisulfate-to-aniline mole ratio was tested for this purpose in the present study. Lowering of the reaction temperature from 20°C to −4°C had a positive effect on the formation of nanotubes.

Treatment of methyl hydrogen decahydro-1,4:5,8-exo,endo-dimethanonaphthalene-4a,8a-dicarboxylate with lead tetraacetate in benzene – acetic acid replaces the carboxyl group by an acetoxy group. Hydrolysis of this product with 25% sulfuric acid at 130 °C forms 8a-hydroxydecahydro-1,4:5,8-exo,endo-dimethanonaphthalene-4a-carboxylic acid 10. The reaction between 10 and benzenesulfonyl chloride in pyridine containing triethylamine at 95 °C produces anti-sesquinorbornene 1 in 34% yield. In the absence of triethylamine 1 is converted to the hydrochloride. The iodohydroperoxide of 1 is converted by silver acetate at 0 °C to the diketone in a luminescent reaction. The 1,2-dioxetane could not be isolated. Decahydro-1,4:5,8-exo,exo-dimethanonaphthalene-4a,8a-dicarboxylic anhydride is converted slowly by methoxide ion in methanol at 150 °C to the monomethyl ester which then undergoes demethylation. The isomeric exo,endo anhydride undergoes reaction readily with methoxide ion at 80 °C.
