Phosphoric acid-modified commercial kieselguhr supported palladium nanoparticles as efficient catalysts for low-temperature hydrodeoxygenation of lignin derivatives in water

Efficient production of high value-added chemicals and biofuels via low-temperature chemoselective HDO of lignin derivatives in water is still a challenge. Here, we construct a low-cost, active and stable Pd/PCE catalyst using phosphoric acid-modified commercial Celite (PCE) as the support, and this catalyst exhibits excellent activity in low-temperature HDO of vanillin as well as other lignin derivatives in water. The superior catalytic performance is due to the presence of P species on the surface of Pd/PCE, accelerating the selective conversion of the intermediate into the final product. Detailed experimental and mechanistic studies reveal that the rapid conversion of the intermediate to the final product proceeds via a free-radical process in an interfacial microenvironment created by intimate interacting between the P species and Pd NPs. The insights of this work provide a new low-cost catalytic system for efficient production of valuable chemicals and future biofuels from lignin derivatives. This journal is

Unusual transformation of 4-hydroxy/methoxybenzylic alcohols via C[sbnd]C ipso-substitution reaction using proton-exchanged montmorillonite as media

We present here proton-exchanged montmorillonite-mediated an unusual transformation of 4-hydroxy and 4-methoxybenzylic alcohols to form symmetrical benzylic ethers and diarylmethanes under mild conditions. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations support a plausible mechanism, which includes a distinctive aromatic C[sbnd]C ipso-substitution reaction with a hydroxymethyl group as the C-based leaving group.
