Received: 17 September 2018; Accepted: 11 October 2018; Published: 14 October 2018 Abstract: The sulfur-containing derivatives and their metabolites, regarded as ‘old devils of green’ chemistry, constitute a relevant class of air/water/soil contaminants in over-polluted world. In fact, some industrially-engineered solvents have become environmentally unfavorable. An attractive alternative to commonly used industrial liquids is sulfolane (C4H8SO2), an anthropogenic medium. The main objective of this paper is the comprehensive review focusing mainly on the state-of-the-art aspects of the sulfolane synthesis, application of sulfolane as an extractive solvent due to its ‘unique’ physicochemical properties as well as the potential of sulfolane to cause equipment corrosion and subsequent spills. The potential risk for groundwater contamination, danger for human health and ways of sulfolane biodegradation were briefly reviewed as well. Interestingly, the analysis performed on data stored in the Reaxys database revealed an alternating tendency of waxing and waning interest in sulfolane during the space of the last fifty years.

E-mail address: [email protected] 1 Abstract: Different reactions have been reported for the successful functionalization of carbon nanotubes (CNT). The Diels-Alder cycloaddition is recognized as a plausible chemical approach, but few reports are known where this strategy has been used. In this study, the functionalization was performed by 1,3-butadiene generated from 3-sulfolene under heating conditions in diglyme. This simple and easily scalable method resulted in functionalized CNT with mass losses of 10 - 23 % by thermogravimetric analysis (nitrogen atmosphere). The functionalization was also supported by acid-base titration, elemental analysis, temperature programmed desorption and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The high content in oxygen detected on the CNT surface was assigned to anhydride formation due to a cascade oxidation of the alkene groups generated in the cycloaddition reaction. The complete evolution of the alkene leads to a grafting density of 4.2 mmol g-1 for the anhydride moiety. Ab-initio calculations in CNT model systems indicate that the Diels-Alder addition of butadiene is a feasible process and that subsequent oxidation reactions may result in the formation of the anhydride moiety.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity of Cross-Conjugated Frameworks. (Under the direction of DR. MARKUS ETZKORN) Molecules with cross-conjugated -systems possess unique structures and reactivity due to their distinctive form of conjugation that fundamentally differs from the isomeric through conjugated systems by atom connectivity. Many of the organic compounds that played a vital role in the development of industrial organic chemistry are cross-conjugated systems or were transformed to cross-conjugated organic salts (e.g., dyes such as indigo). Our larger goal to synthesize novel cross-conjugated frameworks with potential for biological or materials applications, depended on a preparative scale synthesis of necessary precursors. We prepared a small library of arene-substituted isoindanone derivatives that necessitated optimization of synthetic routes according to electronic demands of the individual systems. Reproducible routes were actualized to afford multigram
