In situ spectroscopic investigation of oxidative dehydrogenation and disproportionation of benzyl alcohol.

چکیده
In the solvent free oxidation of benzyl alcohol, using supported gold-palladium nanoalloys, toluene is often one of major by-products and it is formed by the disproportionation of benzyl alcohol. Gold-palladium catalysts on acidic supports promote both the disproportionation of benzyl alcohol and oxidative dehydrogenation to form benzaldehyde. Basic supports completely switch off disproportionation and the gold-palladium nanoparticles catalyse the oxidative dehydrogenation reaction exclusively. In an attempt to provide further details on the course of these reactions, we have utilized in situ ATR-IR, in situ DRIFT and inelastic neutron scattering spectroscopic methods, and in this article we present the results of these in situ spectroscopic studies.

Comparison of alcohol and alkane oxidative dehydrogenation reactions over supported vanadium oxide catalysts: in situ infrared, Raman and UV–vis spectroscopic studies of surface alkoxide intermediates and of their surface chemistry
The surface chemistry of adsorbed isopropoxy groups on supported vanadia–alumina and vanadia–silica catalysts was investigated with multiple in situ spectroscopic techniques. The in situ FT-IR, Raman and UV–vis spectroscopic measurements provided molecular level information about the surface intermediates and the surface vanadium oxide species as a function of different conditions. The spectros...
متن کاملNon-enzymatic reduction of quinone methides during oxidative coupling of monolignols: implications for the origin of benzyl structures in lignins.
Lignin is believed to be synthesized by oxidative coupling of 4-hydroxyphenylpropanoids. In native lignin there are some types of reduced structures that cannot be explained solely by oxidative coupling. In the present work we showed via biomimetic model experiments that nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), in an uncatalyzed process, reduced a beta-aryl ether quinone methide to its benzyl ...
متن کاملMechanism of cytochrome P4503A4- and 2D6-catalyzed dehydrogenation of ezlopitant as probed with isotope effects using five deuterated analogs.
Ezlopitant is metabolized by cytochrome P450 primarily to two metabolites: a benzyl alcohol and a corresponding alkene. The alkene arises as a direct product of metabolism of ezlopitant rather than through dehydration of the benzyl alcohol. The mechanism of this cytochrome P450 (P450)-catalyzed dehydrogenation reaction was probed with five different deuterium-labeled analogs of ezlopitant. At s...
متن کاملA novel and efficient procedure for the preparation of benzyl alcohol by hydrolysis of benzyl chloride catalyzed by PEG1000-DAIL[BF4]/Fe2(SO4)3 under homogeneous catalysis in aqueous media
In this work, benzyl alcohol was obtained in 96% excellent yield by hydrolysis of benzyl chloride catalyzedby the recyclable temperature-dependant phase-separation system that comprised the ionic liquid PEG1000-DAIL[BF4], toluene and ferric sulfate under homogeneous catalysis in aqueous media. This novel methodnot only enhanced the yield, but also made the operating units easy workup. The catal...

In this article, the catalytic activity of bis[2-(p-tolyliminomethyl)phenolato] copper(II) complex was studied, for the first time, in the oxidation of various primary and secondary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes or ketones. The effect of different solvent was studied in the oxidation of benzyl alcohol and methanol was chosen as the reaction medium. Also the effect of different oxidant...
