Ionic Liquid-Supported Photocatalysts: A Reusable Environmentally Friendly Oxidation Reaction System That Uses Air and Light
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Ionic liquids are used in various fields due to their unique physical properties and are widely utilized as reaction solvents in the field of synthetic organic chemistry. We have previously proposed a new organic synthetic method in which the catalyst and reaction reagents are supported on ionic liquids. This method has various advantages, such as the ability to reuse the reaction solvent and catalyst and its facile post-reaction treatment. In this paper, we describe the synthesis of an ionic liquid-supported anthraquinone photocatalyst and the synthesis of benzoic acid derivatives using this system. This synthesis of benzoic acid derivatives via the cleavage of vicinal diols by an ionic liquid-supported anthraquinone photocatalyst is an environmentally friendly process, and furthermore, it has a simple post-reaction process, and the catalyst and solvent can both be reused. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the synthesis of benzoic-acid derivatives via the cleavage of vicinal diols using light and an ionic-liquid-supported catalyst.
