Organofunctionalized catalyst surfaces highly active and selective for carbon–carbon bond-forming reactions

This article illustrates two types of organofunctionalized heterogeneous catalysts for variety of organic carbon–carbon bond-forming reactions, summarizing our previous reports and also presenting new data. Organic amines with an alkoxysilane moiety were immobilized on inorganic silica-alumina surfaces (SA-NR₂) by simple silane-coupling reactions between the silica-alumina surface (SA) and the alkoxysilane. This SA-NR₂ acted as acid–base bifunctional heterogeneous catalysts for carbon–carbon bond-forming reactions, such as cyano-ethoxycarbonylation, Michael reaction of nitriles, and nitro-aldol reaction. These reactions did not occur with either SA or homogeneous amine compounds. In addition, the mixture of SA and homogeneous amine showed low catalytic activity due to undesirable acid–base neutralization reaction. Achiral organic silane-coupling reagents with a variety of functional groups were also immobilized on a SiO₂ surface that had been immobilized with chiral bis(oxazoline) (BOX), to which Cu ions were coordinated to make chiral Cu–BOX complexes on the SiO₂ surface. The SiO₂-supported Cu–BOX complex catalyst functionalized with achiral 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane dramatically increased enantioselectivity in the asymmetric Diels–Alder reaction of cyclopentadiene and 3-acryloyl-2-oxazolidinone. The organofunctionalized catalysts showed much better performances for the C–C bond-forming reactions compared to the corresponding homogeneous systems. The heterogeneous catalysts thus obtained were characterized by solid-state ¹³C and ²⁹Si MAS NMR, FT-IR, UV/vis, XAFS, ESR, XRF, and elemental analysis.     

Pungency threshold of capsaicin produced by in vitro culture of placental tissues of capsicum frutescens mill.

Production of capsaicin in free and immobilized placenta was compared in order to assess their capsaicin production ability. In immobilized placenta, maximum accumulation of capsaicin was on the 14th day of culture with a production of 2045 ug/culture, whereas in free placenta, the accumulation reached maximum on the 7th day (2050ug/culture). It was found that there was no significant difference between free and immobilized placenta in terms of capsaicin production, suggesting that immobilization is not necessary to enhance capsaicin accumulation in piacentai tissue. Pungency threshold of capsaicin produced in in vitro grown free piacentai tissues of Capsicum frutescens was done by Scoville heat units (SHU) method. Pungency analysis of capsaicin produced in free piacentai tissue showed that on day zero, pungency of tissue culture produced capsaicin (0.2267x10⁵ SHU) was comparable to standard natural capsaicin (0.222×10⁵ SHU), while on the 3rd day pungency of tissue culture produced capsaicin (0.3639×10⁵ SHU) was slightly lower than standard natural capsaicin (0.4415×10⁵ SHU).     

Modular Functionalization of Electrodes by Cross‐Coupling Reactions at Their Surfaces

Due to the increasing importance of modified electrodes for many applications in nanotechnology, including molecular electronics, bioelectronics, and sensors, there is a need to find ways to chemically attach suitable molecular films onto the electrodes. Combining the electroreduction of aryl diazonium salts with the Sonogashira cross‐coupling reaction, a new modular technique to modify electrodes is presented. The new technique allows a wide range of functional groups to be introduced onto electrode surfaces with high surface coverage by the functional subunit. Various organic subunits, including redox chromophores, are successfully attached to platinum electrodes. The corresponding films are characterized using cyclic voltammetry, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and contact‐angle measurements. The electroreduction of diazonium salts is successfully achieved on a broad variety of conducting and semiconducting surfaces, which shows that the technique is applicable to a broad variety of substrates.     

Synthesis of chiral stationary phase via surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization of vinylated cellulose 3,5‐dimethylphenylcarbamate

A polysaccharide‐immobilized chiral stationary phase (CSP) was prepared by the surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI‐ATRP), in pyridine, of cellulose 2,3‐bis(3,5‐dimethylphenylcarbamate), having a polymerizable vinyl group, on the surface of SiO₂ support. The successful preparation of the CSP was confirmed via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field‐emission scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, elemental analysis and thermal analysis. The chiral recognition ability of the prepared CSP was evaluated with high‐performance liquid chromatography using 10 racemates with various mobile phases of hexane/alcohol, hexane/tetrahydrofuran and hexane/chloroform. As a result, this CSP prepared using SI‐ATRP can be used in tetrahydrofuran and chloroform solutions as eluents. Copyright © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry

Some Textile Applications of Finite-element Analysis Part II: Finite Elements for Yarn Mechanics

The concepts of modal decomposition developed in an earlier paper are used to produce a three-dimensional element for aligned fibre assemblies. The element degrees of freedom are introduced and the chosen mode shapes of the element demonstrated. The finite element is tested by using simple material-property assumptions, and the element is verified against a theoretical model of the twisting of a single fibre about a solid core. The element is then verified qualitatively by modelling realistic yarn situations, and the resultant deformation plots are presented.
