The use of in situ generated (NHC)-Ni catalytic species (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) allows for the synthesis, in short reaction times, of a variety of tertiary alcohols from secondary alcohols through a domino oxidation-addition protocol.

an efficient method is described for the mild and rapid tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols using a catalytic amount of n-chlorosaccharin (1 mol %) and 3, 4-dihydro-2h-pyran under solvent-free condition at room temperature. benzylic alcohols and phenols containing electron withdrawing or donating groups in various positions of phenyl ring, cinamyl alcohol, primary, secondary, tertiar...

In this study, the adsorption behavior of the primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols over nanoscale (1 0 0) surface of defect spinel γ-alumina was investigated with the aid of density functional theory (DFT) at BLYP/DNP level of calculation. The influence of different substituents including alkyl, cycloalkyl, allyl and aryl were analyzed for free and adsorbed alcohols to shed light the adsorp...

Trimethylsilylation of alcohols and phenols were carried out under solvent-free conditions with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) using LaCoO3 perovskite. LaCoO3 as an efficient catalyst accelerated this reaction under milder condition. The advantages of this method are evident regarding, easy separation, low cost and low catalyst loading, lack of pollution, easy work-up, and selective protection of ...

dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (dbsa) was used as an efficient, cheap and stable brønsted catalyst for acetylation of alcohols and phenols and formylation of alcohols under solvent-free conditions. various primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols were acetylated with acetic anhydride as an acetylating agent under solvent-free conditions in the presence of catalytic amount of dbsa at room temperatu...

[reaction: see text] The addition of Cs(2)CO(3) and t-BuOH provides a dramatic rate acceleration in the palladium-catalyzed aerobic oxidative kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols while maintaining the selectivity of the process.

In this paper, a novel catalyst (MgAl2O4@SiO2-PTA) was proposed for the green oxidation of aliphatic alcohols. The resultant composite was characterized by different techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, FT-IR, EDX and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area analysis. The prepared nanocomposite was used as a catalyst for oxidation of aliphatic alco...
