  • Zn-Nx Sites on N-Doped Carbon for Aerobic Oxidative Cleavage
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-25118-0 OPEN Zn-Nx sites on N-doped carbon for aerobic oxidative cleavage and esterification of C(CO)-C bonds ✉ ✉ Chao Xie1, Longfei Lin 2, Liang Huang 3, Zixin Wang1, Zhiwei Jiang 1, Zehui Zhang1 & Buxing Han 2 Selective cleavage of C-C bonds is very important in organic chemistry, but remains chal- lenging because of their inert chemical nature. Herein, we report that Zn/NC-X catalysts, in 1234567890():,; which Zn2+ coordinate with N species on microporous N-doped carbon (NC) and X denotes the pyrolysis temperature, can effectively catalyze aerobic oxidative cleavage of C(CO)-C bonds and quantitatively convert acetophenone to methyl benzoate with a yield of 99% at 100 °C. The Zn/NC-950 can be applied for a wide scope of acetophenone derivatives as well as more challenging alkyl ketones. Detail mechanistic investigations reveal that the catalytic performance of Zn/NC-950 can be attributed to the coordination between Zn2+ and N species to change the electronic state of the metal, synergetic effect of the Zn single sites with their surrounding N atoms, as well as the microporous structure with the high surface area and structural defects of the NC. 1 Key Laboratory of Catalysis and Energy Materials Chemistry of Ministry of Education & Hubei Key Laboratory of Catalysis and Materials Science, South- Central University for Nationalities, Wuhan, China. 2 Beijing National Laboratory for Molecular Sciences, CAS Key Laboratory of Colloid, Interface and Chemical Thermodynamics, Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China. 3 The State Key Laboratory of Refractories and Metallurgy, ✉ Wuhan University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China.

  • Covalent Bonding - Benzoic Acid from Ethyl Benzoate by Base Hydrolysis C1031 Expt 2
    Covalent Bonding - Benzoic Acid from Ethyl Benzoate by Base Hydrolysis C1031 Expt 2 EXPERIMENT 2: Covalent Bonding - Benzoic Acid from Ethyl Benzoate by Base Hydrolysis Introduction Ethyl benzoate (boiling point 211-213°C, melting point -34°C) belongs to a class of compounds called esters. It is a sweet smelling, colourless, liquid used in perfumery under the name Essence de Niobe; in the manufacture of Peau d’Espagne; and as an artificial fruit essence. It is soluble in organic solvents but insoluble in water. When ethyl benzoate is shaken with water two liquid layers form. The upper layer is ethyl benzoate (less dense) and the lower layer is water. There is no clear indication of any reaction taking place. A more careful study shows that ethyl benzoate reacts very slowly with water and is hydrolyzed1 to give benzoic acid and ethanol but the reaction does not go to completion. However, ethyl benzoate is found to react much faster with aqueous sodium hydroxide, the reaction going to completion, to give sodium benzoate (water soluble) and ethanol (miscible with water). - + O O CH2 CH3 O O Na (aq) C C + NaOH(aq) + CH3 CH2 OH Reaction 1 ethyl benzoate aqueous sodium hydroxide sodium benzoate ethanol (C9H10O2) (C7H5O2Na) This process is called base hydrolysis (or saponification) of an ester and is used in this experiment to first obtain sodium benzoate solution, and then benzoic acid from ethyl benzoate. The ethanol may be recovered by simple downward distillation from the reaction mixture and collected as a solution in water. But this step is omitted in this experiment to allow it to be completed in the available time.

  • Experiment 5 Carboxylic Acids and Saponification of Methyl Benzoate
    Experiment 5 Carboxylic Acids and Saponification of Methyl Benzoate In the first part of this experiment you are going to evaluate the solubility of salicylic acid in water, hot water and in the presence of aqueous NaOH. As you would expect carboxylic acids should react with water to form a water soluble carboxylate anion but solubility is also dependent of the size of the alkyl or aryl group attached to the carboxylic acid functional group. In general the following acid-base reaction occurs: - + R-COOH + H2O RCOO (aq) + H3O (aq) The structure for salicylic acid is given below: OH C OH O Salicylic acid Additionally, carboxylic acids react with bases to form water soluble salts as shown below: - + R-COOH + NaOH (aq) RCOO Na (aq) + H2O Note that salicylic acid contains, in addition to the carboxylic acid functional group, a phenol group hydrogen that can also be titrated by base. The resultant sodium carboxylate/phenolate salt can further react with acids to reform the free acid (COOH) and phenol (Ph-OH) as shown below: R-COO-Na+ (aq) + HCl (aq) RCOOH + NaCl (aq) Ph-O-Na+ (aq) + HCl (aq) Ph-OH + NaCl (aq) The use of bases and acids serves as solubility switches to convert an insoluble form of a compound to a soluble form and vice versa. Observing the solubility or insolubility of reactants and/or products serves as a means to monitor acid base reactions. The concept of a solubility switch will also serve as the basis for following the base (NaOH) catalyzed hydrolysis (saponification) reaction of an ester (methyl benzoate) to the subsequent water soluble carboxylate salt (sodium benzoate) and alcohol (methanol).

  • Methyl Benzoate
    CHM230 - Preparation of Methyl Benzoate Preparation of Methyl Benzoate Introduction The ester group is an important functional group that can be synthesized in a number of different ways. The low-molecular-weight esters have very pleasant odors and indeed are the major components of the flavor and odor aspects of a number of fruits. Although the natural flavor may contain nearly a hundred different compounds, single esters approximate the natural odors and are often used in the food industry for artificial flavors and fragrances. Esters can be prepared by the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol in the presence of a catalyst such as concentrated sulfuric acid, hydrogen chloride, p-toluenesulfonic acid, or the acid form of an ion exchange resin: This Fischer esterification reaction reaches equilibrium after a few hours of refluxing. The position of the equilibrium can be shifted by adding more of the acid or of the alcohol, depending on cost or availability. The mechanism of the reaction involves initial protonation of the carboxyl group, attack by the nucleophilic hydroxyl, a proton transfer, and loss of water followed by loss of the catalyzing proton to give the ester. In this experiment you will prepare methyl benzoate by reacting benzoic acid with methanol using sulfuric acid as a catalyst. Since this is a reversible reaction, it will reach an equilibrium that is described by the equilibrium constant, Keq . For this experiment, you will isolate the product, methyl benzoate, and any unreacted benzoic acid. Using this data, you will calculate the equilibrium constant for the reaction (see calculation section below).
