The use of chiral enol silanes in fundamental transformations such as Mukaiyama aldol, Michael, and Mannich reactions as well as Saegusa-Ito dehydrogenations has enabled the chemical synthesis of enantiopure natural products and valuable pharmaceuticals. However, accessing these intermediates in high enantiopurity has generally required the use of either stoichiometric chiral precursors or stoichiometric chiral reagents. We now describe a catalytic approach in which strongly acidic and confined imidodiphosphorimidates (IDPi) catalyze highly enantioselective interconversions of ketones and enol silanes. These "silicon-hydrogen exchange reactions"enable access to enantiopure enol silanes via tautomerizing σ-bond metatheses, either in a deprotosilylative desymmetrization of ketones with allyl silanes as the silicon source or in a protodesilylative kinetic resolution of racemic enol silanes with a carboxylic acid as the silyl acceptor.

Cu/Mg/Al/Zr hydrotalcite-like precursors with Zr4+:(Al3+ + Zr4+) atomic ratios between 0 and 1 were prepared by co-precipitation methods. The precursors were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric (TG) analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The results confirmed that well-defined layered double hydroxides (LDH) can be synthesized when the added Zr content is less than 0.25 in terms of Zr4+/(Al3+ + Zr4+) atomic ratio. The catalysts of Cu/Zn/Al/Zr mixed oxides can be obtained via thermal decomposition of hydroxide precursors, and can be used in dehydrogenation of 2-(1-cyclohexenyl) cyclohexanone (CHCH) to ortho-phenylphenol (OPP). Copper particles inside the catalyst act as active sites for dehydrogenation. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), XRD, N2O chemisorption and N2 adsorption-desorption were performed to investigate the effect of Zr content on determining the copper particle size. Based on the catalytic performance test, it was concluded that the conversion of CHCH depends on the copper particle size of these catalysts.

This work has been undertaken with the aim of designing promising noble-metal-free catalysts for efficient hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of dibenzofuran (DBF) into fuel grade hydrocarbons. For this, various Ni/Al-SBA-15 catalysts with different Si/Al (50, 60, 70 and 80) mole ratios were synthesized and their catalytic performance was tested for HDO of DBF in a batch reactor. The catalysts were systematically characterized using XRD, N2-adsorption-desorption, Raman, H2-TPR, NH3-TPD, XRF, and FESEM techniques. The activity results showed that the HDO of DBF proceeds via hydrogenation of benzene on the Ni sites followed by cleavage of C-O bonds on the acidic sites of the catalyst to yield unsaturated hydrocarbons. Further hydrogenation of unsaturated hydrocarbons on the Ni sites gives bicyclohexane as the major product. Remarkably, a 100% DBF conversion was found for all the catalysts except for Ni/SBA-15 and Ni/Al-SBA-15(80) (Si/Al mole ratio = 80) catalysts, which showed 97.97 and 99.31%, respectively. A significant observation noticed in this study is that the incorporation of Al into Ni/SBA-15 results in an outstanding improvement in the selectivity of the bicyclohexane product. Among the catalysts tested, the Ni/Al-SBA-15(50) (Si/Al mole ratio = 50) catalyst showed the highest efficiency, with superior selectivity of ～87% for bicyclohexane and ～96% degree of deoxygenation at 10 MPa, 260 °C and 5 h. The obtained structure-activity results reveal the synergetic effect of Ni and support in HDO of DBF reaction: the concentration of acidic sites has a significant effect on the selectivity of the desired products.
