Phase-Transfer Catalysed Epoxidation of Soybean Oil Using Hydrogen Peroxide and Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

Kinetic study of unsaturated ketones epoxidation with hydrogen peroxide through the inverse phase transfer catalysis and effect of ultrasonic waves in this epoxidation

Kinetic study of epoxidation of unsaturated ketone of mesityl oxide was studied by usingHydrogen peroxide in the presence of dodecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (DTAB) as aninverse phase transfer catalyst. The reaction was carried out in the two-phase media of waterheptanewith 1:1 ratio in 25 °C. It was found that the order of reaction for mesityl oxide forketone concentration in the range of 0.0...

Nanoparticle catalysed oxidation of sulfides to sulfones by in situ generated H2O2 in supercritical carbon dioxide/water biphasic medium.

In a one-pot reaction, hydrogen peroxide generated from H(2) and O(2) on a Pd catalyst was utilised as oxidant for the TiO(2) catalyzed conversion of a sulfide to a sulfone. This transformation, where two different nanoparticle catalysts were employed in a supercritical carbon dioxide/water biphasic system, demonstrates the potential of compartmentalising catalytic processes in consecutive reac...

The improved synthesis of carbonated soybean oil using supercritical carbon dioxide at a reduced reaction time{{

We have demonstrated an improved synthesis of a cyclic carbonate of soybean oil (CSO) utilizing supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) as the solvent. Because the mutual solubility of supercritical CO2 and soybean oil is significantly higher than that of gaseous CO2 and soybean oil, our method synthesizes the material in y1/3 of the reaction time reported in the literature. We have also demonstrate...
