Glycerol is produced as a valuable by-product in the transesterification of fatty acids, but it cannot be used directly as a fuel additive. In this study, we developed a systematic conversion for glycerol, which proceeds via synthesizing the key intermediate, 1,2,3-tribromopropane and using the Suzuki coupling reaction to introduce the alkyl group. A series of Pd/SBA-15 catalysts with different wt% of Pd (10%, 15% and 20%) was prepared by a one step sol-gel method. The structure and composition of the catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The metallic state of dispersed palladium in SBA-15 is confirmed with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Pd/SBA-15 with a Pd loading of 20 wt% shows good catalytic activity at 90 °C with methylboronic acid, allowing the complete conversion of 1,2,3-tribromopropane and 64% selectivity of 3-methylpentane. The optimized catalysts were also employed in coupling reactions between various alkylhalides and methylboronic acid, which obtained the desired product with an excellent selectivity. The catalyst can be successfully recycled five times. After the first cycle, we observed a drop in activity with 20% Pd/SBA-15, which was due to the leaching of palladium but in the later cycles, there was no significant decrease in activity.

In the dehydrohalogenation of 1,2-dihalo-1,1-diphenylethanes, 1, to 2- halo-1,1-diphenylethene, 2, either at 76°C or at 50°C, promoted by catalytic amount of the anhydrous bromides of Fe(III), Ru(III) and Al(III) and Fe(III) chloride the chemical transformation of the metal halides was observed. In reactions carried out in vacuum or under nitrogen atmosphere, the hydrogen halide eliminated from the organic substrate reacted with the metal halides rendering the unstable hydrogen perhalometalates H+(a)[MX(2+a)]a-. We demonstrate that these compounds behave as hydrogen halide donors in hydrohalogenation of olefins at 4°C.

The present invention relates to a preparation method of a drug pentobarbital (1) for sedation, hypnosis, pre-anesthesia administration and anti-convulsion, and provides a new preparation process for preparing high-purity pentobarbital (I) from diethyl ethylmalonate, wherein the process comprises three steps: A, bromination; B, alkylation; and C, cyclization, acidification, and purification. According to the present invention, the method has advantages of simple operation, short production cycle, low energy consumption, mother liquor circulation, less three-waste, stable process, good product quality, high product purity, isomer impurity content of less than 0.1%, high yield and low production cost, and is suitable for industrial production.
Identification and Synthesis of Branched Wax-type Esters, Novel Surface Lipids from the Spider Argyrodes?elevatus (Araneae: Theridiidae)

The analysis of cuticular extracts from the kleptoparasitic spider Argyrodes?elevatus revealed the presence of unusual esters, new for arthropods. These novel compounds proved to be methyl-branched long-chain fatty acid esters with methyl branches located either close or remote from the internally located ester group. The GC/MS analysis of the prosoma lipid blend from the male cuticle contained one major component, undecyl 2-methyltridecanoate (1). In contrast, four major wax-type esters, 2-methylundecyl 2,8-dimethylundecanoate (2), 2,8-dimethylundecyl 2,8-dimethylundecanoate (3), heptadecyl 4-methylheptanoate (4), and 14-methylheptadecyl 4-methylheptanoate (5), were identified in the lipid blend of female prosomata. Structure assignments were based on mass spectra, gas chromatographic retention indices, and microderivatization. Unambiguous proof of postulated structures was ensured by an independent synthesis of all five esters. Preferentially, odd-numbered carbon chains pointed to a distinct biosynthetic pathway, different from that of common fatty acids, because one or two C3 starter units are incorporated during the biosynthesis of all acid and alcohol building blocks present in the five esters. The striking sexual dimorphism together with the unique biosynthesis points to a function of the esters in chemical communication of the spiders, although no behavioral data are currently available to test this assumption.
