Acrylic acid Charcoal

Heterogeneous palladium catalysts proved to be active in the conversion of simple alkenes to the corresponding allylic acetates, carbonyl compounds, and carboxylic acids.694 704 Allyl acetate or acrylic acid from propylene was selectively produced on a palladium on charcoal catalyst depending on catalyst pretreatment and reaction conditions.694 Allylic oxidation with singlet oxygen to yield allylic hydroperoxides is discussed in Section 9.2.2. 

Esters of racemic pyrazolidine-3-carboxylic acid (5-azaproline, 16) are obtained by a two-step reaction via addition of diazomethane to acrylic acid esters to form the corresponding dihydropyrazoline derivatives, which are converted into the desired pyrazolidine-3-carb-oxylic acid derivative by hydrogenation over palladium on charcoal,11621 or by reduction with sodium cyanoborohydride,[164l or with zinc in acetic acid. Details are given in Table 6J1651... 

Heating a 3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)propionate ester in diphenyl ether with palladium-charcoal induces a combined cyclization and dehydrogenation [3437], Simultaneous de-O-benzylation and cyclization of a 2-(benzyloxy)acrylic acid by heating with acetyl chloride containing phenyltrimethylammonium iodide gives good yields of a fused pyran-2-one [3836]. In contrast, an o-methoxy-benzylidenemalonic acid (as its potassium salt) cyclizes in the cold when treated with trifluoroacetic acid-trifluoroacetic anhydride [3938].

Succinic acid diesters are also obtained by one-step hydrogenation (over Pd on charcoal) and esterification of maleic anhydride dissolved in alcohols (40) carbonylation of acrylates in the presence of alcohols and Co complex catalysts (41—43) carbonylation of ethylene in alcohol in the presence of Pd or Pd—Cu catalysts (44—50) hydroformylation of acetylene with Mo and W complexes in the presence of butanol (51) and a biochemical process from dextrose/com steep Hquor, using Jinaerobiumspirillum succiniciproducens as a bacterium (52). 

Under an atmosphere of nitrogen, a solution of n-butyl lithium in hexane (321 ml, 15%) was added to a solution of diisopropylamine (48.6 g, 0.48 mole) in tetrahydrofuran (1000 ml) at -30°C and the mixture was stirred for one hour. The reaction mixture was then cooled to -72°C and methyl 3,3-dimethyl acrylate (55 g, 0.48 mole) was added to it. Stirring was continued at -65° to -75°C for 30 min. To the resulting mixture, a solution of p-ionylidene acetaldehyde (100 g, 0.458 mole, 9-trans content 80%) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at -65° to -75°C for 1 h. The reaction mixture was then warmed to 40°C and stirred at this temperature for 3 h. Solvent was removed under vacuum and the reaction mixture was diluted with water (700 ml) and methanol (300 ml). Activated charcoal (4 g) was then added and the mixture was refluxed for 30 min. The heterogeneous mixture was filtered through hyflo and the hyflo bed was washed with methanol (300 ml) and water (150 ml). The aqueous methanolic layer was then extracted with hexanes (2 x 500 ml) and acidified with 10% sulfuric acid to pH 2.80.5. The desired product was then extracted with dichloromethane (2 x 500 ml). The combined dichloromethane layer was washed with water (2 x 300 ml) and concentrated in vacuo to afford the desired isotretinoin. Crystallization from methanol (200 ml) afforded isotretinoin (44 g) in greater than 99% HPLC purity. 

Acetic acid esters and ethyl acrylate in air may be analyzed by NIOSH (1984) Method 1450. One to 10 L of air at a flow rate of 10-200 mL/min is passed over coconnt shell charcoal, desorbed with carbon disnlflde, and injected onto GC-FID. 

The sunscreen agent 2-ethyUiexyl p-methoxycinnamate has been produced on a pilot plant scale by a Heck coupling of p-methoxyphenyl iodide with 2-ethylhexyl acrylate using palladium on charcoal as a catalyst [622].
