An efficient synthesis of α-acyloxyacrylate esters as candidate monomers for bio-based polymers by heteropolyacid-catalyzed acylation of pyruvate esters
A series of α-acyloxyacrylate esters are candidate monomers for bio-based polymers, converted from biomass feedstock. Polymers from these monomers are useful materials for bio-based plastics showing high heat resistance and transparency. In this paper, a new efficient method for α-acyloxyacrylate ester synthesis with a strong inorganic acid, heteropolyacid, is presented. The reaction in the presence of the heteropolyacid catalyst was carried out in liquid phase under mild conditions and showed higher productivity than that of the conventional synthesis with a typical organic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid. Among the various heteropolyacids examined, α-Keggin-type tungsten-based phosphotungstic acid, H3PW12O40, showed the best performance, suggesting that the acid strength of the heteropolyacid is the crucial property for this reaction. We also found that pyruvate ester was consecutively converted into α-acyloxyacrylate estervia2,2-diacyloxypropionate ester.
Influence of structural differences and acidic properties of phosphotungstic acids on their catalytic performance for acylation of pyruvate ester to α-acyloxyacrylate ester
Dawson-type (H6P2W18O62) and Preyssler-type (H14[NaP5W30O110]) phosphotungsticacids, were examined as catalysts for acylation of ethyl pyruvate with acetic anhydride to synthesize ethyl α-acetoxyacrylate in liquid phase. This compound is one of candidate monomers for bio-based polymers bearing high thermal durability and transparency. Catalytic performances correlated to the acidstrength, the proton number
各种杂多酸,包括Keggin型(H 3 PW 12 O 40),Dawson型(H 6 P 2 W 18 O 62)和Preyssler型(H 14 [NaP 5 W 30 O 110])磷钨酸被用作丙酮酸乙酯与乙酸酐的酰化反应,以液相合成α-乙酰氧基丙烯酸乙酯的催化剂。该化合物是具有高热耐久性和透明度的生物基聚合物的候选单体之一。催化性能与酸强度,质子数和磷钨酸的稳定性有关。值得注意的是,每单位摩尔催化剂的Preyssler型磷钨酸的性能高于Keggin型。

Although POMs prepared in aqueous-organic solutions have been reported to exhibit interesting chemical properties and may be efficient catalysts, they could not be isolated in their protonated form using the normal extraction method. In this study, a new procedure of isolating protonated POMs, [S2VxM18-xO62]((4+x)-) and [AsVxM12-xO40]((3+x)-) (M = Mo, W; x = 0-2), which were prepared in an aqueous-organic mixed solution, was developed by modifying and optimising the extraction conditions. Isolated protonated POMs were characterised using IR and Raman spectroscopy, and their acidity was measured using a Hammett indicator. The acidity of H4S2W18O62, H5S2VW17O62, H4S2Mo18O62, and H3As2W18O62 was stronger than that of H3PW12O40. Their catalytic ability was investigated in multiple types of organic reactions, including pinacol rearrangement, acetal formation with benzaldehyde and ethylene glycol, and the Friedel-Crafts acylation of anisole with ethyl pyruvate. They exhibited greater catalytic ability than commercially available POMs such as H3PM12O40 and H4SiM12O40 (M = Mo, W). (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Sulfamic acid was used as an efficient catalyst and green alternative for metal-containing acidic material to promote the acylation of pyruvate esters to produce alpha-acyloxyacrylate esters, which were candidate monomers for biobased polymers. Polymers from these monomers were useful materials for bio-based plastics, which showed high heat resistance and transparency. A series of alpha-acyloxyacrylate esters were converted from pyruvate esters by using sulfamic acid as a catalyst and good yields were obtained. The reaction in the presence of the sulfamic acid catalyst was carried out in the liquid phase and showed greater productivity than synthesis with a conventional liquid inorganic acid.
An efficient heteropolyacid catalyzed acylation of pyruvate esters to α-acyloxyacrylate esters as potential candidate monomers for bio-based polymers
α-Acyloxyacrylate esters were efficiently synthesized from pyruvate esters and carboxylic anhydrides under mild conditions. These esters are potential candidate monomers for bio-based polymers with high durability and transparency. Tungsten-based Keggin type heteropolyacids, especially H3PW12O40, worked more effectively as catalysts for this reaction than other typical acids.
