Oxidative carbonylation of phenols catalyzed by homogeneous and heterogeneous Pd precursors

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison between homogeneous and heterogeneous Pd-based catalysts in the presence of Co(acac)3/ligand/BQ/TBAB and molecular sieve 4A has been made in the oxidative carbonylation of phenols.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bis(alkoxycarbonyl) complexes of platinum preparation, reactivity and their role in carbonylation reactions

TL;DR: In this paper, the reactivity of some alkoxy carbonyl complexes was investigated and the X-ray structure of [Pt(COOCH3)2(dppf] · CH3OH was also reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity in the carbonylation of ethene of cis-[Pd(H2O)2(PPh3)2]X2.nH2O (X=p-CH3C6H4SO3, n=2; X=CH3SO3, n=0). X-ray structure of cis-[Pd(H2O)2(PPh3)2](p-CH3C6H4SO3)2.2H2O and of cis-[Pd(H2O)2(PPh3)2](CH3SO3)2.2CH2Cl2

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the two p-toluenesulfonato units act as counter anions of a dicationic complex, in which the metal atom is surrounded in a square planar environment realized by two water molecules and two PPh3 moieties that are cis to each other.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and characterization of new formamidino and triazenidocomplexes of rhenium(I): [Re(CO)2(PPh3)2(ArNxxxXxxxNAr)] (X = CH,N)

TL;DR: In this article, the structure of these new complexes and the mode of coordination of the organonitrogen ligand are discussed on the basis of i.m.r and 1 H n.r spectra.
Journal ArticleDOI

Levulinic acid synthesis via regiospecific carbonylation of methyl vinyl ketone ob of its reaction products with hydrochloric ach) or an alkanol or of a mixture of acetone with a formaldehyde precursor catalyzed by a highly active Pd-HCl system

TL;DR: In this article, a regio-specific reaction mechanism was proposed for the synthesis of Levulinic acid and its esters using a catalyzed carbonylation of (i) 3-buten-2-one, (ii) 4-alkoxy 2-butanone, and (iii) 4chlorobutanone, in the presence of water or an alkanol containing dissolved hydrochloric acid.
