Accelerated tert -butyloxycarbonyl deprotection of amines in microdroplets produced by a pneumatic spray
Protection and deprotection of organic compounds in multistep reactions using functional groups such as tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc), is widely performed in synthetic organic chemistry. Reaction rate acceleration studies in spray-based ionization methods (electrosonic spray, paper spray, nanospray) have become increasingly common. In this report, we demonstrate reaction rate acceleration of Boc deprotection using easy ambient sonic-spray ionization (EASI), a pneumatic technique which does not involve an applied voltage, in a teaching laboratory setting. The goal of this laboratory exercise was to explore acceleration in a previously unexplored spray-based reaction, while emphasizing in a pedagogic setting the importance of protecting groups for multistep synthesis. Rate acceleration factors of more than an order of magnitude were observed in the uncharged micron-sized droplets generated by EASI. The effect of reaction conditions on reaction acceleration was examined including changes in the type of acid, reagent concentration ratios and syringe pump flow rates. Student knowledge was assessed by pre-laboratory assignments, post-laboratory reports and oral interviews.

Controlled drug release on amine functionalized spherical MCM-41
MCM-41 silica with spherical morphology and small particle sizes (100 nm) was synthesized and modified by post-synthesis method with different amounts of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES). A comparative study of the adsorption and release of a model drug, ibuprofen, was carried out. The modified and drug loaded mesoporous materials were characterized by XRD, TEM, N{sub 2} physisorption, elemental analysis, thermal analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy. A new method was developed for the quantitative determination of amino groups in surface modified mesoporous materials by the ninhydrin reaction. Good correlation was found between the amino content of the MCM-41 materials determined by the ninhydrin method and their ibuprofen adsorption capacity. Amino modification resulted in high degree of ibuprofen loading and slow release rate in comparison to the parent non-modified MCM-41. - Graphical abstract: Determination of surface amino groups by ninhidrin method.

Syntheses and characterizations of two new energetic copper–amine-DNANT complexes and their effects on thermal decomposition of RDX
Two novel copper complexes of dinitroacetonitrile (DNANT), Cu(NH{sub 3}){sub 4}(DNANT){sub 2} (1) and Cu(en){sub 2}(DNATN){sub 2} (2), have been synthesized for the first time through an unique reaction, and structurally characterized. The single-crystal X-ray structural analysis shows that the Cu{sup 2+} cations in the two complexes share a similar four-coordinated structure, which however does not directly involve the main energetic DNANT{sup −} anion. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) study reveals that the two complexes have higher thermal stability and lower sensitivity than the analogous FOX-7 complexes, and exhibit good catalytic action to the decomposition of RDX. - Graphical abstract: Cu(NH{sub 3}){sub 4}(DNANT){sub 2} (1) and Cu(en){sub 2}(DNATN){sub 2} (2) have been first synthesized through an unique reaction.

The work is another typical example for the reactivity.
Efficient alkene epoxidation catalyzed by molybdenyl acetylacetonate supported on aminated UiO-66 metal−organic framework
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) containing Mo Schiff base complexes were prepared by post-synthesis method and applied as efficient catalysts in the epoxidation of alkenes with tert-BuOOH. In this manner, UiO-66-NH{sub 2} (UiO=University of Oslo) MOF was reacted with salicylaldehyde and thiophene-2-carbaldehyde to produce bidentate Schiff bases. Then, the Schiff base ligands were used for immobilization of molybdenyl acetylacetonate. These new catalysts were characterized by FT-IR, UV–vis spectroscopic techniques, X-ray diffraction (XRD), BET, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). These catalytic systems showed excellent activity in the epoxidation of alkenes such as cyclic and linear ones with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) in 1,2-dichloroethane, and reused several times without any appreciable loss of their activity. - Graphical abstract: Efficient alkene epoxidation with TBHP catalyzed by heterogeneous and reusable molybdenum base catalysts is reported. - Highlights: • UiO-66-NH{sub 2} was modified with salicylaldehyde and thiophene-2-carbaldehyde. • The Schiff base groups were used for immobilization of MoO{sub 2}(acac){sub 2}. • The heterogeneous catalysts were prepared. • The prepared catalysts were used for epoxidation of alkenes. • Compared to other catalyst, our catalysts were more efficient and forceful.
Fractionation of critical metals from authentic acid mine drainage using a multi-bed immobilized amine sorbent setup: A field site study
Here for the first time reported, a flow-through multi-fixed bed immobilized amine/silica sorbent strategy was employed to fractionate purified critical metals from authentic acid mine drainage (AMD). The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Energy Technology Laboratory’s (NETL) patent-pending Multi-functional Sorbent Technology (MUST) sorbents were used to recover critical metals from AMD at the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden (Pittsburgh, PA USA). By adjusting the AMD/sorbent ratio, we recovered > 80% of pure adsorbed Mn (by adsorbed metal weight) and >90% pure adsorbed Al at lab-scale. Further optimizing the weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) enhanced the rate of adsorbed Al recovery by over five times, justifying a field site test. After treating >100 L of AMD at the field site, the optimized polyamine/epoxysilane/aminosilane sorbent recovered approximately 0.7 wt% adsorbed Al at > 90% purity. A tangible amount of purified aluminum hydroxide [Al(OH) 3 ] and aluminum sulfate [Al 2 (SO 4 ) 3 ] solids were then recovered after eluting and precipitating the previously adsorbed metals.

Design of a bifunctional TEMPO-tertiary amine mesoporous silica catalyst for the three-step cascade synthesis of a chromene derivative
A key challenge is design of materials and processes whereby competing reagents or conditions do not harm the multi-step sequence, thus allowing for more efficient chemical synthesis with elimination of work-up and separation steps. In this work, a three-step reaction cascade is performed using a porous bifunctional dimethylpropylamine-TEMPO-MCM41 catalyst, converting the commodity chemicals benzyl alcohol, sodium hypochlorite, and malononitrile to a biologically active anti-cancer, and anti-malarial 2-amino-chromene derivative. The cascade first utilizes a TEMPO-catalyzed oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde with NaOCl as the terminal oxidant. This is followed by a two-step, dual base catalyzed Knoevenagel condensation with malononitrile followed by a Michael addition with lawsone. Optimal conditions converting benzyl alcohol to 2-amino-5,10-dioxo-4-phenyl-5,10-dihydro-4H-benzo[g]chromene-3-carbonitrile include the delayed addition of malononitrile and lawsone during the three-step reaction sequence, which results in a 2-amino-chromene yield of over 80%. The importance of stepwise reagent addition is rationalized due to the unfavorable adsorption of acidic lawsone on the surface-grafted base catalyst. Tertiary Brønsted base sites of dimethylpropylamine outperform the more Lewis basic primary propylamine functionalized catalyst. This work outlines a simple and effective method for generating mesoporous materials with two types of active sites via co-condensation and thiol-ene coupling procedures.
