  • Effective Darzen's condensation of 4-nonanolide with 1,6-dibromohexan-2-one using new bead-shaped insoluble multi-site (six-site) Phase Transfer Catalyst and low concentration of aqueous NaOH

    Abstract:

    Abstract New bead-shaped insoluble polymer-supported multi-site (six-site) Phase Transfer Catalyst (BSIMPTC) was synthesized from mesitylene as a starting material and its catalytic efficiency was studied with the kinetics of Darzen's condensation of 4-nonanolide with 1,6-dibromohexan-2-one. The presence of six active-sites in the newly synthesized BSIMPTC, viz., 2,4,6-tris[(4-(2,2′-bis(N-triethylammoniummethylene chloride) eth-1-ene) phenoxy)benzene was characterized through FT-IR, solid 1H NMR, 13C NMR, SEM and [chloride ion] analyses and found that the BSIMPTC contains ≈6 active-site centers. The Darzen's condensation reaction of 4-nonanolide was performed at lower temperature (40 °C) under pseudo-first order rate conditions by taking lower concentration of aqueous NaOH (15%, w/v, 3.75 M) and excess of 1,6-dibromohexan-2-one. The disappearance of 4-nonanolide was quantitatively monitored by a gas chromatograph for the calculation of the pseudo-first order rate constant. The presence of more number of active-sites in BSIMPTC was further confirmed from the comparative study of pseudo-first order rate constant with the rate constants of single-site polymer-supported Phase Transfer Catalyst. The comparative rate constant results reveal that the BSIMPTC is highly active-than the corresponding soluble six-active-site and almost ≈4 times higher active-than with insoluble/soluble single-site PTCs. The effect of various experimental parameters such as [substrate], [Catalyst], [NaOH], stirring speed, and temperature on the rate of the reaction have also been studied and found that each variables are influenced the rate of reaction. Based on the obtained kinetic results, a suitable mechanism is proposed.

  • synthesis and characterization of novel soluble multi site Phase Transfer Catalyst its efficiency compared with single site Phase Transfer Catalyst in the alkylation of phenylacetonitrile as a model reaction

    Abstract:

    Abstract The kinetics of C-alkylation of phenylacetonitrile with 1-bromobutane has been studied using a novel α , α ′, α ″- N -hexakis(triethylammoniummethylene chloride)-melamine as a multi-site Phase Transfer Catalyst (MPTC) using a low concentration of aqueous sodium hydroxide as a base. The reaction was carried out at 50 °C under pseudo-first-order conditions by keeping aqueous base and 1-bromobutane in excess. The formation of the product was monitored by GLC. The effects of various experimental parameters such as [substrate], [NaOH], [Catalyst] and temperature on the rate of the reaction have been studied. The results obtained and also the thermodynamic parameters are discussed. The catalytic efficiency of the multi-site Catalyst was compared with efficiencies of the commercially available single-site Catalysts.
