Synthesis of Itaconic Acid Ester Analogues via Self-Aldol Condensation of Ethyl Pyruvate Catalyzed by Hafnium BEA Zeolites
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lewis acidic zeolites are used to synthesize unsaturated dicarboxylic acid esters via aldol condensation of keto esters. Hafnium-containing BEA (Hf-BEA) zeolites catalyze the condensation of ethyl pyruvate into diethyl 2methyl-4-oxopent-2-enedioate and diethyl 2-methylene-4oxopentanedioate (an itaconic acid ester analogue) with a selectivity of ca. 80% at ca. 60% conversion in a packed-bed reactor. The catalyst is stable for 132 h on stream, reaching a turnover number of 5110 molEP molHf −1. Analysis of the dynamic behavior of Hf-BEA under flow conditions and studies with Na-exchanged zeolites suggest that Hf(IV) open sites possess dual functionality for Lewis and Brønsted acid catalysis.

Background: Methotrexate, an immunosuppressive drug, is a folic acid antagonist. This inhibits synthesis of thymidylate, serine, and methionine, which disrupts synthesis of DNA, RNA, and protein and leads to cell death. Ethyl pyruvate, a commercial food additive, is a lipophilic ester derivative of pyruvate .In previous reports, that has been shown to ameliorate organ dysfunction in a variety o...

An efficient and environmentally benign procedure for synthesis of triarylmethanes is developed via condensation of aromatic aldehydes and N,N-dimethylaniline using small quantity of heteropolyphosphotungstic acid (HPW) as catalyst in water. Good functional group tolerance, simple green experimental procedure, and good to excellent yields of products are the most advantages of this work.
