98% | With oxone; diethylamine; In water; acetonitrile; at 20℃; for 0.0833333h; | General procedure: To a well-stirred solution of thioether (1 mmol) and diethylamine (0.2 mmol) in acetonitrile (2 mL) was added the solution of Oxone (1.5 mmol) in water(4 mL). Stirring was continued and the reaction was monitored by TLC. Uponcompletion of the reaction, the mixture was diluted with chilled water. In most of the cases, sulfones were obtained as pure solid products. Thus, they were isolated by simple filtration. However, when the resulting sulfone was a liquid,the product was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic extract was washedwith water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was removed.The resultant residue on filtration through a short column of silica gel afforded pure sulfone. |

The crude product is obtained by rolling evaporation and purified by column chromatography separation (silica gel using hexane/ethyl acetate 90:10 v/v). The RTIL phase is diluted with CH2Cl2 and then treated with MnO2 to destroy the excess peroxide. The obtained liquid is first dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and then for 4h in vacuo at 50C to remove CH2Cl2. Fresh substrate and hydrogen peroxide are then added for a new reaction cycle. All products are characterized by melting point, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy (see Supporting information). |

With hydrogen;Raney nickel; In water; at 35℃; under 7500.75 Torr; for 1.3h;Product distribution / selectivity; | An amount of 0.186 g (1.0 mmol) of ferrocene was fed into a 500-mL stainless autoclave equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a pressure gauge, and a heater. Then, 77 g of sulfur dioxide was charged therein. Next, the autoclave was heated to 100C and 54 g (1.0 mol) of 1, 3-butadiene was injected thereto at a rate of 0.38 g/min using a pump. The mixture was stirred for one hour at 100C. During the stirring, the pressure inside the autoclave was 2.7 to 0.7 MPa. After the pressure inside the autoclave was discharged, 150 g of water was added and the autoclave was cooled to 60C. The autoclave contents were filtered through a filter paper to give a 3-sulfolene aqueous solution. The amount of 3-sulfolene in the obtained aqueous solution was measured using liquid chromatography and the measurement was 103 g (0.87 mol). The yield from 1,3-butadiene was 87%. It is to be noted that polymers were not found on the filter paper used in filtering. All of the obtained 3-sulfolene aqueous solution was fed into a 500-ml conical flask and 70 g of water was added thereto. The solution was warmed to 35C and bubbled with air at a rate of 100 ml/min for one hour. In this manner, sulfur dioxide dissolved in the 3-sulfolene aqueous solution was removed. The concentration of sulfur dioxide in the 3-sulfolene aqueous solution was measured using ion chromatography and the measurement was 31 ppm. Next, 200 g of the obtained 3-sulfolene aqueous solution (3-sulfolene content of 64 g (0.54 mol)) and 1.04 g (0.52 g of pure nickel) of Raney nickel (water content of 50%) were fed into a 500-mL stainless autoclave equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a pressure gauge, and a heater. The temperature inside the autoclave was maintained at 35C. Hydrogen was introduced into the autoclave until the pressure gauge read 1.0 MPa. The reaction was initiated while the mixture was stirred at 1000 rpm. Hydrogen was consumed in the hydrogenation reaction and was additionally supplied, when the reading by the pressure gauge lowered to 0.9 MPa, to pressurize to 1.0 MPa. This operation was repeated until the pressure stopped lowering, at which the reaction was determined to be completed. As a result, the reaction time from the start to the completion of the reaction was 78 minutes. After the reaction completed, the reaction rate of hydrogenation was measured using gas chromatography. The measurement clarified that 3-sulfolene was vanished and the reaction was 100% progressed. Table 1 shows the measurements of the amount of generated polymers and the reaction time of hydrogenation. |

3.14 - 83% | With peroxynitrous acid; at 25℃; for 0.166667 - 4h;pH 7.4 - 12.7;phosphate buffer;Reactivity; | Example 1. The corrole metal complexes prevent oxidation and nitration of small molecules by ROS and RNS. Table 1 summarizes the results obtained by treating five different molecules with peroxynitrite, with and without catalytic amounts of 1-Fe or 1-Mn. These particular molecules were specifically chosen because they represent targets of hydroxy 1 radical, nitrogen dioxide, and of oxygen transfer reagents. In addition, their reaction products are easily identified and quantified by established methods. The results were very illuminative: both complexes rescued the simple molecule DMSO, as well as the more sophisticated one, deoxyribose, from peroxynitrite-derived hydroxyl radical. The situation with regard to nitration by reactive nitrogen species originating from peroxynitrite was quite different: 1-Mn completely eliminated the reactions of both relevant molecules, while 1-Fe had no effect on the nitration of tyrosine, and was only partially effective in avoiding that of fluorescein. This is perfectly consistent with the mode of action of the complexes on peroxynitrite, as dilute nitrite obtained from 1-Mn (Scheme 2, equation 2) is not a nitrating agent while nitrate (from the action of 1-Fe, Scheme 2, equation 1) is. Both complexes were quite (but not absolutely) effective with regard to arresting the oxidation of tetramethylenesulfoxide to sulfone, in a way which is most likely an oxygen atom transfer reaction, with 1-Fe displaying some larger efficiency. Additional experiments were carried out by using CuSO4/ascorbate as the initiator of reactive oxygen species (by the complex Fenton-type oxidation that produces hydroxyl radical via the involvement of superoxide anion radical and <n="26"/>Hydrogen peroxide), as to bridge between the results of the small molecules and those obtained by oxidation of LDL. 1-Fe eliminated the oxidation of DMSO to malonaldehyde completely and 1-Mn did it only partially (65% inhibition), which is consistent with the faster decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by 1-Fe relative to 1- Mn.These investigations clearly point toward the following conclusions: a) both complexes serve very well for preventing the formation of hydroxyl radical from peroxynitrite; b) the iron complex is more efficient in avoiding the formation of metal-induced hydroxyl radical; c) the manganese complex is more efficient in inhibiting the formation of reactive nitrogen species from peroxynitrite.; (i) Oxidation of small molecules by peroxynitrite; c) Sulfolane from tetramethylene sulfoxide: Peroxynitrite (6 mM) was added to a solution of tetramethylene sulfoxide (0.038 mM) in phosphate buffer solution pH 7.4 and T= 25 0C, both in the presence and absence of 38 muM 1-Fe or 1-Mn. The sulfolane was extracted into diethyl ether after 10 min of stirring and quantified by GC analysis. The same experiment was done at pH 12.7, with a reaction time of 4 hr. |
