Abstract
For over a century, the Tishchenko reaction has been a valuable technique for synthesizing esters from aldehydes, serving a variety of applications in different domains. Beyond the remarkable advances in organoactinide and organolanthanide chemistry over the past two decades, there has been a significant increase in the research of the electrophilic d0/fn chemistry of organoactinide and organolanthanide compounds due to the captivating interplay between their structure and reactivity, and their exceptional performance in various homogeneous catalytic processes. The remarkable influence of ligand design, both in terms of steric hindrance and electronic properties, on the catalytic activity of organo-f-element complexes in organic transformations is well-established. However, the traditional view was that the significant oxophilicity of actinide and lanthanide complexes makes them unfavorable for reactions involving oxygen because of catalytic poisoning and their applications have been relatively limited, primarily focused on hydroalkoxylation, small-molecule activation, and cyclic ester polymerization. This review dissects the intricate interplay between ligand design and catalytic activity in actinide and lanthanide complexes, specifically in the context of the Tishchenko esterification.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 310:114772. [PMID: 35228167 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2022.114772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Revised: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Butyl butyrate (BB) derived from bio-renewable resources is the most promising jet fuel blend. This review highlights essential properties of jet fuel, including calorific value, kinematic viscosity, freezing point, flash point, auto-ignition temperature, and density to compare with different bio-renewable chemicals, which are compatible to be blended with the jet fuel. A detailed discussion follows on the importance of intermediate formation, reaction mechanism, and catalyst properties that are critical towards the production of bio-renewable resource-derived BB. BB is primarily produced via the esterification of butyric acid (BA) in butanol (BuOH) with or without using a catalyst. The corresponding reactions are carried out in both homogeneous and heterogeneous phases, provided it has acidic properties. Thus, a wide range of acidic catalysts such as [HSO3-pmim] HSO4 ionic liquids, heteropolyacid, methanesulfonic acid, Dowex 50 Wx8-400 resins, and sulfonated char causes up to 98%, 97.9%, 93.2%, 95.3%, and 90% of BB yield, respectively are critically reviewed. Moreover, reaction mechanism, product, and by-product formation that primarily dictate the BB yield and selectivity have been comprehensively reviewed. In addition, catalytic and mechanistic insights on BB production from other bio-renewable resources such as butyric anhydride, butyraldehyde, dibutyl ether, and methanol have been discussed in this review.

Abstract
We report a variety of rhenium complexes supported by bidentate and tridentate phosphinoamine ligands and their use in the formation of the advanced biofuel isobutanol from methanol and ethanol. Rhenium pincer complexes 1-3 are effective catalysts for this process, with 2 giving isobutanol in 35% yields, with 97% selectivity in the liquid fraction, over 16 h with catalyst loadings as low as 0.07 mol %. However, these catalysts show poorer overall selectivity, with the formation of a significant amount of carboxylate salt solid byproduct also being observed. Production of the active catalyst 1d has been followed by 31P NMR spectroscopy, and the importance of the presence of base and elevated temperatures to catalyst activation has been established. Complexes supported by diphosphine ligands are inactive for Guerbet chemistry; however, complexes supported by bidentate phosphinoamine ligands show greater selectivity for isobutanol formation over carboxylate salts. The novel complex 7 was able to produce isobutanol in 28% yield over 17 h. The importance of the N-H moiety to the catalytic performance has also been established, giving further weight to the hypothesis that these catalysts operate via a cooperative mechanism.

Abstract
![]()
We have recently reported the previously
unknown synthesis of thioesters
by coupling thiols and alcohols (or aldehydes) with liberation of
H2, as well as the reverse hydrogenation of thioesters,
catalyzed by a well-defined ruthenium acridine-9H based pincer complex.
These reactions are highly selective and are not deactivated by the
strongly coordinating thiols. Herein, the mechanism of this reversible
transformation is investigated in detail by a combined experimental
and computational (DFT) approach. We elucidate the likely pathway
of the reactions, and demonstrate experimentally how hydrogen gas
pressure governs selectivity toward hydrogenation or dehydrogenation.
With respect to the dehydrogenative process, we discuss a competing
mechanism for ester formation, which despite being thermodynamically
preferable, it is kinetically inhibited due to the relatively high
acidity of thiol compared to alcohol and, accordingly, the substantial
difference in the relative stabilities of a ruthenium thiolate intermediate
as opposed to a ruthenium alkoxide intermediate. Accordingly, various
additional reaction pathways were considered and are discussed herein,
including the dehydrogenative coupling of alcohol to ester and the
Tischenko reaction coupling aldehyde to ester. This study should inform
future green, (de)hydrogenative catalysis with thiols and other transformations
catalyzed by related ruthenium pincer complexes.
