A highly efficient three-step approach to vanillin has been developed starting from 4-cresol.

A highly efficient approach to the famous flavor and fragrance compound vanillin has been developed starting from 4-cresol with the attention focused on improving the sustainability of all the reactions. The approach involves a three-step sequence of the quasi-quantitative selective clean oxybromination of 4-cresol, the high-yield selective aerobic oxidation of 2-bromo-4-cresol, and the quantitative methoxylation of 3-bromo-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde with the recovery of pure methanol. Herein, the pivotal oxidation and methoxylation reactions are logically investigated and developed into two concise methodologies. As a green alternative, the approach holds significant value for the sustainable manufacturing of vanillin.

Oxyhalogenation of thiols and disulfides into sulfonyl chlorides/bromides using oxone-KX (X = Cl or Br) in water

A simple and rapid method for efficient synthesis of sulfonyl chlorides/bromides by oxyhalogenation of thiols and disulfides with oxone-KX (X = Cl or Br) using water as the solvent is described.

The water-soluble metal nanoparticles (NPs) stabilized by poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) were prepared and examined as catalysts for the one-step selective hydrogenation of phenol to cyclohexanone in water. More than 99% conversion of phenol and selectivity to cyclohexanone was obtained at 90 °C and 1 atm H₂ for 16 h over “soluble” Pd NPs that were reduced by NaBH₄and stabilized by PVP. These Pd NPs were stable, and no leaching or aggregation was detected after five successive runs, showing their advantage for catalyzing the efficient synthesis of cyclohexanone via the one-step selective hydrogenation of phenol under mild conditions.
