Iron oxide-pillared clay catalyzed the synthesis of acetonides from epoxides

FeOx-pillared clays (FeOx-pillared bentonite, FeOx-pillared hectorite and FeOx-pillared taeniolite) were synthesized by the intercalation of FeCl3 into clay interlayers and calcination. The synthesize

Investigation of the catalytic activity of an electron-deficient vanadium(IV) tetraphenylporphyrin: A new, highly efficient and reusable catalyst for ring-opening of epoxides

In this work, the catalytic activity of high-valent tetraphenylporphyrinatovanadium(IV) trifluoromethanesulfonate, [V IV(TPP)(OTf)2], in the nucleophilic ring-opening of epoxides is reported. This new V(IV) catalyst was used as an efficient catalyst for alcoholysis with primary (methanol, ethanol and n-propanol), secondary (iso-propanol) and tertiary alcohols (tert-butanol), hydrolysis and acetolysis of epoxides with acetic acid and also for the conversion of epoxides to 1,2-diacetates with acetic anhydride, conversion of epoxides to thiiranes with ammonium thiocyanate and thiourea, and for conversion of epoxides to acetonides with acetone. The catalyst was reused several times without loss of its activity.

Ring-opening reactions of epoxides catalyzed by molybdenum(VI) dichloride dioxide

Transformation of epoxides to β-alkoxy alcohols, acetonides, and α-alkoxy ketones is achieved by using molybdenum(VI) dichloride dioxide (MoO2Cl2) as a catalyst. Alcohol, aldehyde, oxime, tosyl, and tert-butyldimethylsilyl functional groups are tolerated during the methanolysis and acetonidation of the functionalized epoxides. No polymerization product is observed with any of the epoxides. Direct conversion of epoxides devoid of sensitive functional groups into the corresponding α-methoxy ketone is achieved in a single step by using the MoO2Cl 2/Oxone system.
