چکیده

Regioselective methanesulfonylation of simple aromatics using methanesulfonic anhydride can be achieved over zeolite catalysts. For example, methanesulfonylation of toluene over various cation-exchanged zeolite beta catalysts affords higher para-selectivity in the synthesis of methyl tolyl sulfone than standard Friedel-Crafts methanesulfonylation utilising aluminium chloride.

Regioselective Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution Reactions over Reusable Zeolites

Zeolite catalysts can play an important role in the development of greener organic syntheses through their abilities to act as heterogeneous catalysts, support reagents, entrain by-products, avoid aqueous work-ups and enhance product selectivities via shape-selectivity. We have shown that zeolites under modest conditions can have advantages in para-regioselective nitration, alkylation, acylatio...

Non-oxidative conversion of methane to aromatics over modified zeolite catalysts by transitional metals

The activity of different transitional metals over modified H-ZSM-5 catalysts for methane conversion to aromatics was compared. The first group of catalysts was Mo-impregnated H-ZSM-5 zeolites with 1, 3 and 6 wt% of Mo. The second group was M(3 wt%)- impregnated H-ZSM-5 (M: Ag, Cd, Cr, Mo, Zn and Mn). The catalytic activity of the first group was investigated at 600, 700 and 800 °C and gas hour...

Development of a system for clean and regioselective mononitration of aromatic compounds involving a microporous solid, dinitrogen tetroxide and air{

Electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions are of considerable importance in the production of fine chemicals. However, many traditional processes suffer serious disadvantages, including low selectivity for the desired product and the requirement for large quantities of mineral or Lewis acids as activators. The use of such acids causes plant corrosion and generates large volumes of spent rea...

Acetylation of aromatic ethers using acetic anhydride over solid acid catalysts in a solvent-free system. Scope of the reaction for substituted ethers.

The acetylation of aryl ethers using acetic anhydride in the presence of zeolites under modest conditions in a solvent-free system gave the corresponding para-acetylated products in high yields. The zeolite can be recovered, regenerated and reused to give almost the same yield as that given when fresh zeolite is used.

Study of regioselective dialkylation of naphthalene in the presence of reusable zeolite catalysts.

Highly regioselective dialkylation of naphthalene using various alkylating agents can be achieved over zeolite catalysts. For example, the tert-butylation of naphthalene (1) using tert-butanol in cyclohexane over a dealuminated H-Mordenite (HM) zeolite has been optimised to give a 60% yield of 2.6-di-tert-butylnaphthalene (3) with a 2.6/2.7 ratio of over 50. This has been achieved by varying th...
