Basic scheme regenerator

Alcohols and amines have been regenerated by MW-promoted deavage of sulfonates (83-90%) and sulfonamides (76-85%) respectively, on basic KF-alumina surface (Scheme 6.16) [58],... 

The basic solution in water containing NaCo(CO)4 is treated with sulphuric acid in the presence of syn-gas and HCo(CO)4 is regenerated. This can be extracted as is shown in the drawing from water into the substrate, alkene. The catalyst is returned to the reactor dissolved in the alkene. Compared to other schemes (BASF, Ruhrchemie) the elegant detail of the Kuhlmann process is... 

The basic features are delineated in a fundamental review , where the alleged R2N=0+ species is reported to be generated in situ by a suitable primary oxidant from precursor R2N—O (i.e. TEMPO). The substrate to be oxidized, e.g. an alcohol, attacks the oxoammonium ion as a nucleophile (Scheme 15) , giving an adduct that, by a-elimination, yields the carbonyl end product, while the primary oxidant regenerates the reactive R2N=0+ ion from the reduced R2NO—H (viz. TEMPOH) in a catalytic cycle.

Adsorption Separation and Purification Processes. Adsorption processes can be classified according to the flow system (cyclic batch or continuous countercurrent) and the method by which the adsorbent is regenerated. The Iwo basic flow schemes arc illustrated in Figure 3 The cyclic batch scheme is simpler but less efficient. It is generally used where selectivity is relatively high. Countercurrent or simulated countercurrent schemes arc more expensive in initial cost and arc generally used only for difficult separations in which selectivity is limited or mass-transfer resistance is high. 

Scheme 2 outlines the general mechanism of PET-sensitization. The basic process is an electron transfer from the donor (D) to the acceptor (A, in Sch. 2 Sens), which proceeds most commonly via the electronically excited acceptor (A or Sens ). Since the acceptor is regenerated through a... 

It was clear at the outset that the basic principle of this catalytic scenario may apply to other transformations as well. An obvious extension concerns the pinacol coupling since any McMurry reaction probably passes through the 1,2-diolate stage (c/. Scheme 1) [4]. In fact, several titanium-catalyzed procedures have been reported which rely on chlorosilane additives for the liberation of the product and the simultaneous regeneration of the TiClj salt. They involve either [CpjTiClj] cat., Zn, chlorosilane [8], or... 

These reactions are commonly interpreted to be composed of three main steps, namely a) oxidative addition of an aryl-X species to palladium(0) with formation of an arylpalladiumffi) bond b) insertion of a terminal olefin and c) reductive elimination regenerating palladium(0). To achieve a catalytic cycle, the rates of these steps have to match each other. The basic process was discovered by Heck in 1968. The mechanism has not yet been well defined and several variants have been proposed. A widely accepted scheme is reported in Figure 6. 

The key intermediate in the catalytic pathway is the supemucleophile cob(l)alamin, which attacks A -methyl-tetrahydrofolate, generating tetrahydrofolate and MeCbl. Then homocysteine (probably as its thiolate) attacks MeCbl, which yields methionine and regenerates cob(l)alamin (Scheme 2). The demethylation of A -methyltetrahydrofolate is not trivial, even for the supemucleophilic cob(l)alamin, and considerable efforts have been invested into understanding this reaction, dubbed improbable by Duilio Arigoni. The obvious mode of activation is by proton transfer to N-5 of A -methyl tetrahydrofolate, but as this is weakly basic (pAa 5.1) the nature of the proton source and mode of transfer has been difficult to pin down. Recent research from the Matthews group has shown how the reactivities of cob(I)alamin and methylcobalamin are modulated by the ligand trans to the lone pair of cob(l)alamin and methyl group of methylcobalamin (21). 

Under neutral or basic conditions with palladium catalysts, another mechanism involving a carbalkoxy complex may operate (Scheme 3) [3]. It is proposed that reaction of an alcohol with a Pd" species forms a labile alkoxy complex. Coordination and insertion of CO into the Pd-0 bond yields the carbalkoxy complex. Insertion of an olefin into the Pd-C02R bond gives an alkyl complex which reacts with HX to yield predominantly the branched carboxylic acid as product, and to regenerate the Pd".
