“…Solvent‐free reactions (hydrogenation, Suzuki‐Miyaura coupling, and oxidation reaction) using heterogeneous PGMs on carbon as a catalyst has been reported [6] . For solvent‐free hydrogenation [6a] and oxidation, [6b] it was revealed that these reactions proceeded via the solid‐solid‐gas phase. The 5% Ru/C‐catalyzed solvent‐free hydrogenation also proceeded via the solid‐solid‐gas phase because the reaction temperature (80 °C) was lower than the melting points of the reactions and products ( 1 : ca.…”
In this study, ruthenium-on-carbon-catalyzed hydrogenation of CBDK was developed for the production of cis-CBDO under solvent-free conditions. Isomerization using a ruthenium catalyst and hydrogen gas may improve the selective formation of cis-CBDO. Moreover, the reaction mechanisms for cis-selectivity was proposed based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Given the prevalence of molecules containing nitro groups in organic synthesis, innovative methods to expand the reactivity of this functional group are of interest in both industrial and academic settings. In this report, a metal‐free intramolecular benzylic sp3 C–H amination is disclosed using aryl nitro compounds as aryl nitrene precursors. Organosilicon reagent N,N’‐bis(trimethylsilyl)‐4,4’‐bipyridinylidene (Si‐DHBP) served as an efficient reductant in the transformation, enabling the in situ generation of aryl nitrene species for the direct, metal‐free synthesis of unprotected 2‐arylindolines from the corresponding nitroarene compounds.
Developing a highly efficient catalytic system for the transformation of benzhydrol to simultaneously form diphenylmethane and diphenyl ketone is an attractive strategy in modern organic synthesis. In this work, acidic mesoporous Beta (H‐MBeta) zeolite successfully catalyzed the dismutation of the benzhydrol to yield equivalent amounts of diphenylmethane and diphenyl ketone under mild conditions. Combining X‐ray diffraction, N2‐adsorption, ammonia temperature programmed desorption, pyridine‐adsorbed infrared spectra, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, it was found that, compared to MBeta, H‐MZSM‐5 and USY zeolite catalysts, the abundant Brønsted acidic sites on the external surface of H‐MBeta are responsible for its superior catalytic performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
