In many heterogeneous catalytic reactions, such as low-temperature CO oxidation, the preparation conditions, and the role of the CeO2 support (oxygen vacancies and redox properties) in the dispersion and the chemical state of Au, are considered critical factors for obtaining gold nanoparticle catalysts with high catalytic performance. In this work, the physical and chemical preparation methods were compared, aiming at understanding how the preparation method influences the catalytic activity. The Au/CeO2 nanoparticle catalysts with 5% Au loading were prepared via the Physical Laser Vaporization Controlled Condensation method (LVCC), and the chemical Deposition-Precipitation method (DP) was used to investigate the effect of synthesis methods on the structure and the catalytic activity toward the CO oxidation. In this manuscript, we compare the activity of nanostructured Au/CeO2 catalysts. The structure and the redox properties of the catalysts were investigated by the XRD, SEM, TEM, TPR, and XPS. The catalytic activity for low-temperature CO oxidation was studied using a custom-built quartz tube flow reactor coupled with an infrared detector system at atmospheric pressure. The study reveals that the prepared CeO2-supported Au nanoparticles’ catalytic activity was highly dependent on the preparation methods. It showed that the sample prepared by the DP method exhibits higher catalytic efficiency toward CO oxidation when compared with the sample prepared by the LVCC method. The high catalytic activity could be attributed to the small particle size and shape, slightly higher Au concentration at the surface, surface-active Au species such as Au1+, along with the large interface between Au and CeO2. This study suggests that the stability, dispersion of Au nanoparticles on CeO2, and strong interaction between Au and CeO2 lead to strong oxidation ability even below room temperature. Considering the universal character of different physical and chemical methods for Au/CeO2 preparation, this study may also provide a base for supported Au-based catalysts for many oxidation reactions in energy and environmental applications.

The reduction of the relatively inert carbon–oxygen bonds of CO<sub>2</sub> to access useful CO<sub>2</sub>-derived organic products is one of the most important fundamental challenges in synthetic chemistry. Facilitating this bond-cleavage using earth-abundant, non-toxic main group elements (MGEs) is especially arduous because of the difficulty in achieving strong inner-sphere interactions between CO<sub>2</sub> and the MGE. Herein we report the first successful chemical reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> at room temperature by alkali metals, promoted by a cyclic(alkyl)(amino) carbene (CAAC). One-electron reduction of CAAC-CO<sub>2</sub> adduct (<b>1</b>) with lithium, sodium or potassium metal yields stable monoanionic radicals clusters [M(CAAC–CO<sub>2</sub>)]<sub>n</sub>(M = Li, Na, K, <b> 2</b>-<b>4</b>) and two-electron alkali metal reduction affords open-shell, dianionic clusters of the general formula [M<sub>2</sub>(CAAC–CO<sub>2</sub>)]<sub>n </sub>(<b>5</b>-<b>8</b>). It is notable that these crystalline clusters of reduced CO<sub>2</sub> may also be isolated via the “one-pot” reaction of free CO<sub>2</sub> with free CAAC followed by the addition of alkali metals – a reductive process which does not occur in the absence of carbene. Each of the products <b>2</b>-<b>8</b> were investigated using a combination of experimental and theoretical methods.<br>

<p>Three novel lanthanide metal˗organic frameworks (Ln-MOFs), namely MOF-590, -591, and -592 were constructed from a naphthalene diimide tetracarboxylic acid. Gas adsorption measurements of MOF-591 and -592 revealed good adsorption of CO<sub>2</sub> (low pressure, at room temperature) and moderate CO<sub>2</sub> selectivity over N<sub>2</sub> and CH<sub>4</sub>. Accordingly, breakthrough measurements were performed on a representative MOF-592, in which the separation of CO<sub>2</sub> from binary mixture containing N<sub>2</sub> and CO<sub>2</sub> was demonstrated without any loss in performance over three consecutive cycles. Moreover, MOF-590, MOF-591, and MOF-592 exhibited catalytic activity in the one-pot synthesis of styrene carbonate from styrene and CO<sub>2</sub> under mild conditions (1 atm CO<sub>2</sub>, 80 °C, and solvent-free). Among the new materials, MOF-590 revealed a remarkable efficiency with exceptional conversion (96%), selectivity (95%), and yield (91%). </p><br>

The phospha-Brook rearrangement of dialkyl 1-aryl-1-hydroxymethylphosphonates (HPs) to the corresponding benzyl phosphates (BPs) has been elaborated under solid-liquid phase transfer catalytic conditions. The best procedure involved the use of triethylbenzylammonium chloride as the catalyst and Cs2CO3 as the base in acetonitrile as the solvent at room temperature. The substrate dependence of the rearrangement has been studied, and the mechanism of the transformation under discussion was explored by quantum chemical calculations. The key intermediate is an oxaphosphirane. The one-pot version starting with the Pudovik reaction has also been developed. The conditions of this tandem transformation were the same, as those for the one-step HP→BP conversion.

Aim and Objective: Pyrazolone sulfones have been reported to exhibit herbicidal and antibacterial activities. In spite of their good bioactivities, only a few methods have been developed to prepare pyrazolone sulfones. However, the substrate scope of these methods is limited. Moreover, the direct sulfonylation of pyrazolone by aryl sulfonyl chloride failed to give pyrazolone sulfones. Thus, developing a more efficient method to synthesize pyrazolone sulfones is very important. Materials and Method: Pyrazolone, aryl sulphonyl hydrazide, iodine, p-toluenesulphonic acid and water were mixed in a sealed tube, which was heated to 100°C for 12 hours. The mixture was cooled to 0°C and m-CPBA was added in batches. The mixture was allowed to stir for 30 min at room temperature. The crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography to afford sulfuryl pyrazolone. Results: In all cases, the sulfenylation products were formed smoothly under the optimized reaction conditions, and were then oxidized to the corresponding sulfones in good yields by 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA) in water. Single crystal X-ray analysis of pyrazolone sulfone 4aa showed that the major tautomer of pyrazolone sulfones was the amide form instead of the enol form observed for pyrazolone thioethers. Moreover, the C=N double bond isomerized to form an α,β-unsaturated C=C double bond. Conclusion: An efficient method to synthesize pyrazolone thioethers by iodine-catalyzed sulfenylation of pyrazolones with aryl sulfonyl hydrazides in water was developed. Moreover, this method was employed to synthesize pyrazolone sulfones in one-pot by subsequent sulfenylation and oxidation reactions.
