Background & Objective: A green one-pot synthesis of oleic acid (1) derivatives is promoted by Rare Earth Metal (REM) triflates and commercial Molybdenum dioxo dichloride (MoCl 2 O 2 ) in the presence hydrogen peroxide as a green oxidant. Results: The protocol permits to govern the oxidation selectivity by simply choosing the proper combination of Mo and Sc catalysts. Conclusion: Methyl oleate epoxide 2a and azelaic acid 6 thus obtained are valuable industrial intermediates for synthesizing bio-compostable plastics, plasticizers of PVC, lubricating oils, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals (bactericides, anti-inflammatories, etc.).

Results: The protocol permits to govern the oxidation selectivity by simply choosing the proper combination of Mo and Sc catalysts. Conclusion: Methyl oleate epoxide 2a and azelaic acid 6 thus obtained are valuable industrial intermediates for synthesizing bio-compostable plastics, plasticizers of PVC, lubricating oils, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals (bactericides, anti-inflammatories, etc.).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
