It is used in medicine, food industry, agriculture and in production of cosmetics. Older industrial processes have drawbacks such as a low atomic efficiency and the use of toxic catalysts or stoichiometric oxidants. Several studies were carried out during latest years on new technologies for the synthesis of niacin and nicotinate precursors, such as 3-picoline and pyridine-3-nitrile. This thesis reports about the results of three different research projects; the first was aimed at the study of the one-step production of pyridine-3-nitrile starting from 2-methylglutaronitrile, the second at acetaldehyde/acetonitrile condensation for 3-picoline synthesis, and the third at investigating the reactivity of supported vanadium oxide catalysts for the direct gas-phase oxidation of 3-picoline with air; this process would be more sustainable compared to both older ones and some of those currently used for niacin production. For the first two research projects, a catalysts screening was carried out; however, results were not satisfactory. The third project involved the preparation, characterisation and reactivity testing of different zirconia- supported V2O5 catalysts. -

Vapor Phase Photochemistry of Cyanopyridines and Pyridine
VAPOR PHASE PHOTOCHEMISTRY OF CYANOPYRIDINES AND PYRIDINE. DEUTERIUM LABELING STUDIES by Somchoke Laohhasurayotin A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry by ____________________________________________ April, 2005 APPROVED: Examining Committees ________________________________ __________________________________ Professor James W. Pavlik, Advisor Professor W. Grant McGimpsey __________________________________ Professor Venkat R. Thalladi __________________________________ Professor Richard P. Johnson University of New Hampshire ABSTRACT The vapor phase photochemistry of the three isomeric cyanopyridines and the three methylpyridines was studied by irradiating their vapors at 254 nm. It was found that direct irradiation of any one cyanopyridine isomer resulted in the formation of the other two isomers of cyanopyridine or methylpyridines respectively. The reactivity of each isomer was found to be different. This was suggested to be based on the stability of their azaprefulvene intermediates formed during interconversion. The phototransposition of these molecules was suggested to result from 2,6-bonding, nitrogen migration around the five sides of cyclopentenyl ring followed by rearomatization. This mechanism was found to be consistent with the results of deuterium labeling studies of cyanopyridines These result suggest that cyanopyridines undergo phototransposition via the intermediacy of azaprefulvenes instead of Dewar-pyridine and azaprismane. Thus, photochemical studies showed that the six trideuteriopyridine isomers constitute two separate photochemical triads. Each triad consists of three isomers that are photointerconverting upon irradiation at 254 nm in the vapor phase. Similary, it was found that the three isomeric tetradeuteriopyridine isomers also constitute a photochemical triad and are interconverting upon irradiation at 254 nm in the vapor phase.
