reactions of n-isocyaniminotriphenylphosphorane with cyclopentanone have been studied in the presence of aromatic carboxylic acids and primary amines, proceeds smoothly at room temperature under neutral conditions to afford sterically congested 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives by an intramolecular aza-wittig cyclization in ch2cl2 in excellent yields. the structures of the products were deduced from...

In this study, zirconium dodecylphosphonate was synthesized by the reported method in scientific literature. 2-Alkylbenzoxazoles were prepared from aliphatic carboxylic acids and 2-aminophenol in the presence of this catalyst under solvent-free conditions at 100°C. Their structures were recognized by IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR. Then, we used aromatic carboxylic acids in t...

A simple, practical and efficient copper-catalyzed method for synthesis of aromatic carboxylic acids has been developed. The protocol uses inexpensive CuI/L-proline as the catalyst/ligand, and readily available aryl halides and malononitrile as the starting materials, and the corresponding aromatic carboxylic acids were obtained in moderate to good yields. The method is of tolerance towards fun...

Pd-catalysed decarboxylative Suzuki reactions and orthogonal Cu-based O-arylation reactions of aromatic carboxylic acids are reported. The new reactions may provide alternative routes for the synthesis of some biaryls and aromatic carboxylic esters.

The extraction and determination of aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids as well as their influence on the aromaticity and molecularity relationship of natural organic matter (NOM) in water are reported in this study. Three solid phase extraction (SPE) sorbents were used and their extraction efficiencies evaluated after chromatographic determinations (using gas chromatography with a time of ...

Various monoand disubstituted cinnamic acid derivatives and aromatic carboxylic acids with saturated side chains were incubated mainly with Bacillus, Candida, Hansenula, and Saccharo­ m yces strains. The cinnamic acids carrying a hydroxyand/or a methoxy group at the 3and/or 4-position of the benzene ring were decarboxylated with high yields. Most of the reactions were terminated within 24 to 48...

Supported iron oxide nanoparticles on mesoporous materials (FeNP@SBA-15) have been successfully utilized in the esterification of a variety carboxylic acids including aromatic, aliphatic, and long-chain carboxylic acids under convenient reaction conditions. The supported catalyst could be easily recovered after reaction completion and reused several times without any loss in activity after up t...
