Here, we report the first study to use Fe2S2(CO)6 as a well-defined petroleum-soluble precatalyst for partial hydrogenation of polycyclic aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds, including pyrene, phenanthrene, naphthalene, benzothiophene. The in situ-generated heterogeneous catalyst was characterized using combination thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), combustion (CHNS), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD),...
Abstract Catalytic iodine in the presence of water acts indirectly as a source Brønsted acid and, concurrently, generates iodonium ion and hydrogen peroxide, which mediate final oxidative aromatization step multicomponent cyclocondensation an aromatic amine two aliphatic aldehyde compounds. The cycle this related iodine‐catalyzed reactions is seldom discussed, generally unoptimized, rarely investigated detail. This work establishes that independent catalytic cycles (H + I − /I ) drive such...
