Zeolites are crystalline inorganic solids that are industrially used for adsorption, ion exchange and catalysis. As catalysts, they have been particularly successful in the hydrocarbon processing industry due to their unique activities and selectivities. Zeolites are mainly used in acid catalyzed reactions, but their catalytic functionality can be diversified through the incorporation of elements that are traditionally not part of their framework. The incorporation of various elements has been studied in recent decades resulting in zeolites with potential to perform different chemistries or improve catalytic performance in existing ones. However, many of these investigations have been conducted under conditions that do not necessarily represent realistic scenarios for industrial implementation. The main objective of this dissertation was to study the single and simultaneous framework incorporation of tin, boron, germanium and aluminum in MFI zeolites under synthesis conditions that are more in line with industrial preparations. These include the use of mixtures in alkaline media with high concentration of precursor species. The interest on tin resides on its potential for Lewis acid catalysis, while boron and germanium have potential for modulating acid strength and enhancing catalytic properties respectively. Three specific systems were studied: MFI zeolites with simultaneous incorporation of germanium and aluminum (i.e. Ge-Al-MFI zeolites), MFI zeolites with simultaneous incorporation of germanium and boron (i.e. B-Ge-MFI zeolites), and MFI zeolites with single incorporation of tin (i.e. Sn-MFI zeolites). Systematic synthesis experiments were coupled with extensive analytical characterization in order to assess how element incorporation and zeolite physicochemical properties are affected by synthesis conditions. In addition, the catalytic activity of Sn-MFI zeolites for the hydroxylation of phenol was studied. The general conclusion from this work is that framework incorporation of these elements is highly influenced by pH, mixture composition and the presence of sodium cations. Sodium cations are commonly included in industrial preparations through the use of sodium hydroxide, but they were found to negatively affect framework incorporation due to a tendency to form stable extra-framework impurities with the heteroatoms, especially germanium and tin. pH and mixture composition are particularly influential in controlling germanium and boron incorporation, while the incorporation of tin, its coordination environment and catalytic performance were found to depend on synthesis conditions as well as post-synthesis treatments.

There has been growing demands towards the efficient production of enantiopure compounds through either asymmetric synthesis or separation from racemic mixtures. Recent studies have examined numerous different methods that may address this challenge. One of these methods involved the interaction of chiral molecules on achiral metal surfaces such as copper to create chiral templates while another method utilizes the interaction of chiral molecules on intrinsically chiral surfaces. Earlier studies using nonhybrid Density Functional Theory (DFT) functional has provided some insights into the geometric structures and relative energies of some of these interactions, but it failed to achieve quantitative agreement with experimental studies. Using dispersion corrected DFT functionals, this thesis present a study of chemisorbed dense adlayers of glycine and alanine on Cu(110) and Cu(3,1,17), physisorbed R-3-methycyclohexanone (R-3MCHO) on Cu(100), Cu(110), Cu(111), Cu(221), and Cu(643)R, and the hydrogenation of formaldehyde and methoxide on Zn or Zr heteroatoms promoted Cu surfaces. In the dense glycine and alanine adlayer study, we have resolved a disagreement between experimental observation made on LEED, STM, and XPD, and we showed that heterochiral and homochiral glycine adlayer coexist on Cu(110). Our model failed to show the minute enantiospecificity for dense alanine adlayer on Cu(3,1,17) which indicated a numeric limitation for computational modeling of surface adsorption. In the physisorbed system, the dispersion corrected methods calculated adsorption energies were in better quantitative agreement with the experimentally observed values than the nonhybrid functionals, but it also created a significant overestimation of total adsorption energies. On the other hand, our model had indicated a previously unexpected adsorbate-induced surface reconstruction on Cu(110). This is promising news in term of computational modeling's capability in examining surface-adsorbate interaction on an atomic scale. As for the hydrogenation of formaldehyde and methoxide on copper surfaces, the model showed that the increased binding strength between the reaction intermediates and the heteroatom promoted copper surfaces to be the primary contributor of the increased reaction rates. Furthermore, our model had also indicated that while clustered heteroatoms are relatively rare, a significant portion of reaction takes place near these clustered structures. It is our hope that the results and techniques presented in this thesis can be used to better understand and predict the interaction of more complex surface-adsorbate interactions.

Over the last century, almost all of the carbon materials developed for the energy industry are derived from fossil fuels. The growing global concerns about energy needs, fossil fuels consumption, and the related environmental issues have motived scientists to find new, green and sustainable energy resources such as the wind, solar and biomass energy. Essentially, biomass-derived materials can be utilized in energy storage and conversion devices such as Li-ion batteries, fuel cells, and supercapacitors. Among the biomass resources, lignin is a high volume byproduct from the pulp and paper industry and is currently burned to generate electricity and steam. The pulp and paper industry has been searching for high value-added uses of lignin to improve its overall process economics. The importance of manufacturing valuable materials from lignin is, discussed in Chapter 2, demonstrating the need for a facile, green and scalable approach to synthesize bio-char and porous carbon for use in Li-ion batteries. From this context, lignin is first carbonized in water at 300 °C and 103 bar to produce bio-char, which is then graphitized using a metal nitrate catalyst at 900-1100 °C in an inert gas at 1 bar. Graphitization effectiveness of three different catalysts, iron, cobalt and manganese nitrates was examined. The obtained materials were analyzed for morphology, thermal stability, surface properties, and electrical conductivity. Both annealing temperature and the catalyst affects the degree of graphitization. High-quality graphitization is obtained by using Mn(NO3)2 at 900 °C or Co(NO3)2 catalysts at 1100 °C. Research on various energy storage materials for supercapacitors has grown rapidly in the recent years. Various advanced materials have been shown as a promising candidate for future’s high-energy supercapacitor electrodes. For a material in a supercapacitor electrode to be considered, it must show promising results for its specific power and energy density, electrical conductivity, surface properties, durability, surface area and pore-size distribution in order to design and develop high-performance supercapacitor devices. The industrial applications of supercapacitors have not been satisfied due to the low energy density (the commercially available supercapacitors have between 5 to 10 times less energy density than that of batteries) and moderate charge-discharge rate of supercapacitor electrode. Thus, chapter 3 was aimed to design and synthesize nitrogen-doped carbon materials that show the characteristic of high-energy and high-power density supercapacitor electrodes with a long cycle life. With this aim, organosol lignin was successfully converted into N-doped carbon materials using a two-step conversion process. The nitrogen content in the carbon was up to 5.6 wt.%. The synthesize materials exhibit high surface area up to 2957 m2/g with micro/meso porosity and a sheet-like structure. The N-doped carbon produced at 850 oC exhibited a high capacitance value of 440 F g-1 at a 1 mV s-1 scan rate and demonstrated excellent cyclic stability over 30,000 cycles in 1 M KOH. In addition, the NC-850 delivers a high energy density of 15.3 W h kg-1 and power density of 55.1 W kg−1 at 1 mV s-1. Therefore, this study suggests that N-doped carbon materials synthesized from a pulp and paper byproduct, lignin, are promising environmentally-sustainable candidates for supercapacitor applications. Challenges for commercialization of fuel cells include high operation cost, inadequate operational stability, and poisoning by H2O2. To address the challenge, costly Pt-based catalysts are needed in order to facilitate the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at the cathode and the hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) at the anode. In chapter 4, alternative metal-free ORR catalyst materials derived from lignin are studied in order to simultaneously enhance the catalytic activity, lessen the Pt dependency and reduce the excessive costs associated. Calcium sulfonate lignin was successfully converted into sulfur self-doped carbons via in-situ hydrothermal carbonization and followed by post-annealing treatment. The sulfur content in the as-prepared porous carbons is up to 3.2 wt.%. The resulting materials displayed high surface areas (up to 660 m2 g-1) with micro/meso porosity and graphitic/amorphous carbon structure. The as-prepared sulfur self-doped electrode materials (SC-850) were tested as a potential cathodic material for ORR. The number of electrons transferred per molecule was measured to be ~ 3.4 at 0.8 V, which approaches the optimum 4 electron pathway. Additionally, S-doped materials were also applied as a supercapacitor electrode material. The SC-850 electrode exhibited a high specific and volumetric capacitance values of 225 F g-1 and 300 F cm-3 at a scan rate of 0.5 A g-1. The SC-850 electrode also exhibited consistent response over 10,000 cycles at harsh conditions. It was shown that the metal-free SC-850 is a promising electrode material for supercapacitors and ORR applications. All of the studies presented in this dissertation involve the development and application of carbon-based materials derived from lignin and its application towards the Li-ion batteries, supercapacitor, and fuel cell. Insight into the applicability of lignin-derived carbon materials towards electrochemical applications is made readily available, supplemented by detailed physical, chemical and electrochemical characterization, to examine the specific factors influencing the Li-ion batteries, supercapacitor, and electrocatalysis of fuel cell activity.

Design and Development of Carbon-Carbon and Carbon-Heteroatom Bond Forming Reactions” is divided into two sections. Section-A, contains two chapters, describes the catalytic ability of iodine for cross coupling reactions. Section-B, divided into three chapters, presents the azidation of organic scaffolds under oxidative conditions. Section A Chapter 1 presents a C-H functionalization of tetrahydroisoquinolines using iodine as a catalyst under aerobic conditions.1 This methodology employs Cross Dehydrogenative Coupling (CDC) strategy as a key step, which is highly atom economical as it doesn’t require pre-functionalized starting materials.2 Owing to the importance of tetrahydroisoquinoline moiety which is present in the umpteen natural products, considerable attention has been put up to functionalize tetrahydroisoquinoline scaffold.3 Iodine a non-metal which is non-toxic was found to catalyze the C-H functionalization of tetrahydroisoquinolines with a variety of nucleophiles such as coumarin, alkyl phosphite, phenols, indoles, acetone and dialkyl malonoates were coupled to it. Significant mechanistic study has been carried out to find the possible intermediate and support the mechanistic proposal. A few representative examples are highlighted in Scheme 1.1 Synopsis Scheme 1: A CDC coupling of tetrahydroisoquinoline with variety of nucleophiles Chapter 2 describes the Cross Hetero Dehydrogenative Coupling (CHDC) reactions of amines, alcohols and sulfoximines with various phosphites.4 Phosphoramidates and phosphate esters are structural scaffolds that are present in a variety of biologically active molecules.5 The conventional methods for synthesizing phosphoramidates/phosphate esters largely involve treating alcohol/amine with appropriate phosphorus halides which generates stoichiometric amount of halogen waste.6 Due to the usage of stoichiometric reagents and difficulties associated with the reported methods, there is a need for developing a protocol which is catalytic and mild. Therefore, we developed a method which employs catalytic amount of iodine and aq. H2O2 as a sole oxidant under milder conditions. Using this methodology, variety of phosphoramidates, phosphorous triesters and sulfoximine derived Synopsis Scheme 2: Phosphorylation of amines, alcohols and sulfoximines phosphoramidates have been synthesized with great efficiency and environmentally benign conditions. A few representative examples are highlighted in Scheme 2.4 Section B Chapter 1 of Section B demonstrates a mild way of synthesizing quaternary azides from α-substituted active methylene compounds which will serve as surrogates for several unnatural amino acid derivatives.7 Azidation has emerged as one of the efficient methods to introduce nitrogen atom in to the organic molecules.8 Azides are versatile functional groups which can be converted to amine, amide, and nitro compounds by simple modification. Moreover, azides are potential handle for “click” chemistry and provide late stage modifications in drug candidates, biomolecules and polymers, etc.9 Azidation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds is challenging, as both azides and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds are nucleophilic in nature. In this section of the thesis, azidation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds has been carried out using tetrabutyl ammonium iodide (TBAI) as a catalyst, aq. TBHP as an oxidant and TMSN3 as a azide source. This method uses water as a solvent under mild reaction conditions to generate Synopsis quaternary azides in good to excellent yields. This operationally simple, practical, mild and green method provides an opportunity for synthesizing a variety of azidated β-keto esters, amides and ketones in good yields, Scheme 3.7 The application of this methodology has been demonstrated by synthesising a few triazole and pyrazolone derivatives. Scheme 3: Azidation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds Chapter 2 of Section B comprises the azidation and peroxidation of β-napthol derivatives using dearomatization strategy. Azidation and peroxidation are efficient ways to introduce nitrogen and oxygen into organic molecules, which serve as surrogates for amines and alcohol functional groups. In the present study, the azidative or peroxidative dearomatization of naphthol derivatives have been described. The azidation of β-napthol derivatives has been achieved by using CuBr (5 mol %) as a catalyst, TMSN3 as an azide source and aq. TBHP as an oxidant. Whereas, the peroxidation β-napthol derivatives has been accomplished using CuBr (5 mol %) in the presence of aq. TBHP at ambient reaction conditions.10 The products obtained are naphthalenone derivatives, which serve as valuable Synopsis synthetic intermediates and has potential handle for further functionalization.11 Several α-amino or α-peroxy naphthalenones are synthesized using this method in good yields. The usefulness of the methodology has been illustrated by synthesizing a few chiral azides and peroxides in good yields and with moderate enantioselectivity Scheme 4.10 Scheme 4: Dearomatizative azidation and peroxidation of 2-naphthols Chapter 3 reveals the azidation of indole at C-2 position by employing CuBr (10 mol %) as a catalyst and aq. TBHP as an oxidant in acetonitrile under reflux conditions (Scheme 5).12 The C-H functionalization of indole at C-2 position is one of pivotal methods, since it paves a way for synthesizing a variety of indolo-alkaloids.13 Azide is a versatile functionality which can be converted to several other nitrogen containing functional groups such as Synopsis Scheme 5: Azidation of indoles amine, amide, triazole, etc.9 A variety of functional groups were tolerated under the reaction conditions, and furnished the azidated product in good to excellent yields. Through radical inhibition study, we presume that the reaction may be proceeding through radical mechanism. In Scheme 5, a few representative examples are depicted.

[ES] En la presente tesis doctoral se describen metodologías novedosas, simples y rápidas con luz visible para producir compuestos con nuevos enlaces C-heteroátomo como C-B, C-P y C-S que representan estructuras valiosas en la síntesis orgánica moderna. La luz visible se emplea como fuente de energía más suave y sostenible que la tradicional (energía térmica). Por otro lado, también se han empleado nanorreactores espaciales como las redes de gel viscoelástico mediante enfoques 'ascendentes' para mejorar diferentes procesos en comparación con la disolución, en términos de cinética, selectividad o procesabilidad. Por lo tanto, el Capítulo 3 describe un procedimiento novedoso, directo y rápido para producir tiofenos que contienen boro empleando luz visible en disolución anaeróbica sin el uso de ningún fotocatalizador externo. Este estudio se ha ampliado a la borilación de haluros de heteroareno comerciales en condiciones aeróbicas en un nanorreactor de gel fácil de usar (Capítulo 4). La red de gel proporciona un microambiente estabilizador adecuado para soportar una amplia gama de sustratos, incluidos los ésteres de boronato de furano, tiofeno, selenofeno y de pirrol. El Capítulo 5 se centra en una nueva estrategia para lograr una fosforilación aeróbica eficiente de heteroarenos de cinco miembros mediante catálisis fotorredox dicromática en un nanorreactor basado en gel. La metodología, que opera mediante un mecanismo de transferencia de electrones fotoinducida consecutiva (ConPET), se ha aplicado con éxito a la síntesis sencilla y limpia de varios fosfonatos de heteroareno diferentes (furano, tiofeno, selenofeno, pirrol, oxazol o tioxazol), extendiéndose a la etapa tardía de la fosforilación del anticoagulante rivaroxabán. Por último, el Capítulo 6 muestra una tiolación (formación enlaces C-S) simple y efectiva, libre de metales, de haluros de heteroareno comerciales usando luz visible. Los resultados experimentales son consistentes con una reacción basada en un complejo aceptor-donador de electrones (EDA) entre una alquilamina y el haluro de heteroareno. El mecanismo del proceso se ha demostrado mediante estudios espectroscópicos, mientras que la robustez se ha demostrado mediante experimentos a escala de gramo y derivatización de última etapa. / [CA] En la present tesi doctoral es descriuen metodologies noves, simples i ràpides amb llum visible per a produir compostos amb nous enllaços C-heteroàtom com C-B, C-P i C-S que representen estructures valuoses en la síntesi orgànica moderna. La llum visible s'utilitza com a font d'energia mes suau i sostenible que la tradicional (energia tèrmica). D'altra banda, també s'han emprat nanorreactors espacials com les xarxes de gel viscoelàstic mitjançant enfocaments 'ascendents' per a millorar diferents processos en comparació amb la dissolució, en termes de cinètica, selectivitat o procesabilitat. Per tant, el Capítol 3 descriu un procediment nou, directe i ràpid per a produir tiofens que contenen bor emprant llum visible en dissolució anaeròbica sense l'ús de cap fotocatalitzador extern. Aquest estudi s'ha ampliat a la borilació d'halurs d'heteroaré comercials en condicions aeròbiques en un nanorreactor de gel fàcil d'usar (Capítol 4). La xarxa de gel proporciona un microambient estabilitzador adequat per a suportar una àmplia gamma de substrats, inclosos els èsters de boronat de furan, tiofé, selenofé i de pirrol. El Capítol 5 se centra en una nova estratègia per a aconseguir una fosforilació aeròbica eficient de heteroarens de cinc membres mitjançant catàlisis fotorredox dicromàtica en un nanorreactor basat en gel. La metodologia, que opera mitjançant un mecanisme de transferència d'electrons fotoinducida consecutiva (ConPET), s'ha aplicat amb èxit a la síntesi senzilla i neta de diversos fosfonats d'heteroaré diferents (furan, tiofé, selenofé, pirrol, oxazol o tioxazol), estenent-se a l'etapa tardana de la fosforilació de l'anticoagulant rivaroxabán. Finalment, el Capítol 6 mostra una tiolació (formació d'enllaços C-S) simple i efectiva, lliure de metalls, d'halurs d'heteroaré comercials usant llum visible. Els resultats experimentals són consistents amb una reacció basada en un complex acceptor-donador d'electrons (EDA) entre una alquilamina i l'halur d'heteroaré. El mecanisme del procés s'ha demostrat mitjançant estudis espectroscòpics, mentre que la robustesa s'ha demostrat mitjançant experiments a escala de gram i derivatització d'última etapa. / [EN] This thesis doctoral describes novel, simple, and rapid methodologies using visible light to produce compounds with new C-heteroatom bonds such as C-B, C-P and C-S that represent valuable scaffolds in modern organic synthesis. The employment of visible light as energy source highlights the concepts of green and sustainable chemistry considering its mild, safe, and eco-friendly advantages. On the other hand, spatially nanoreactors such as viscoelastic gel networks by 'bottom-up' approaches to improve different processes in comparison to solution, in terms of kinetics, selectivity or processability have been also developed. Thus, Chapter 3 describes a novel, straightforward, and fast procedure to produce boron-containing thiophenes employing visible light in anaerobic solution. Interestingly, the process does not require the use of any external photocatalyst. This study has been extended to the borylation of commercially available heteroarene halides under aerobic conditions in an easy-to-use gel nanoreactor (Chapter 4). The gel network provides an adequate stabilizing microenvironment to support wide substrate scope, including furan, thiophene, selenophene, and pyrrole boronate esters. Chapter 5 focus on a new strategy to achieve efficient aerobic phosphorylation of five-membered heteraroenes using dichromatic photoredox catalysis in a gel-based nanoreactor. The methodology, which operates by a consecutive photoinduced electron transfer (ConPET) mechanism, has been successfully applied to the straightforward and clean synthesis of a number of different heteroarene (furan, thiophene, selenophene, pyrrole, oxazole, or thioxazole) phosphonates, extending to the late-stage phosphonylation of the anticoagulant rivaroxaban. Lastly, regarding the construction of new C-S bonds, Chapter 6 shows a simple and effective metal-free thiolation of commercial heteroarene halides using visible light. The experimental results are consistent with the reaction taking place from an electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complex between an alkylamine and the heteroarene halide. Mechanistic aspects of the whole process have been demonstrated by spectroscopic measurements whereas the strength of this novel method has been proven by gram-scale experiment and late-stage derivatization. / Herrera Luna, JC.

Les pétroles utilisés en raffinage étant de plus en plus lourds et chargés en métaux et hétéroélements, il est d’une grande importance pour les activités de raffinage de connaître la spéciation de ces espèces au sein des produits pétroliers et leurs comportements durant les procédés de raffinage. Afin d’apporter des réponses à cette problématique des techniques de caractérisation élémentaire et moléculaire ont été utilisées notamment par ICP MS Haute Résolution et FT ICR MS respectivement. Ces techniques analytiques sont appliquées à différents échantillons pétroliers provenant parfois de procédés de raffinage et les informations obtenues au niveau élémentaire et moléculaire sont utilisées de manières complémentaires pour améliorer notre compréhension des mécanismes se produisant au sein de nos échantillons durant les activités de raffinage. / The crude oils available for the refining industry are heavier and heavier and more concentrated in metals and heteroelements. It is thus of great importance to study the speciation of these species within the petroleum products and their behavior during the refining processes. To answer that problematic, elemental and molecular characterization techniques have been used, mainly High Resolution ICP MS and FT ICR MS for the elemental and molecular characterization respectively. The analytical techniques quoted are used for the analysis of several petroleum products sometimes originating from refining processes and the information obtained at the elemental and molecular level are combined to improve our understanding of the mechanisms occurring within our samples during refining activities.

Pour accéder à la caractérisation des matrices complexes pétrolières, la chromatographie en phase liquide bidimensionnelle couplée à une détection spécifique comme la spectrométrie de masse à couplage inductif (LCxLC-ICP-MS/MS) s’avère être une solution pertinente. Un tel couplage permet d’envisager la spéciation des contaminants soufrés ou encore métallés (vanadium et nickel). Ce couplage reste, à notre connaissance, inédit aujourd’hui et sa mise en place a nécessité en premier lieu d’évaluer différents systèmes d’introduction de l’échantillon en amont de la détection. La comparaison de ces systèmes, au regard de la dispersion qu’ils génèrent, a été effectué afin de conserver la qualité de séparation obtenue en sortie du système LCxLC. La seconde partie du développement instrumental a concerné l’optimisation de la partie LC×LC. Le choix des différents mécanismes de rétention dans les deux dimensions étant primordial au vu de la complexité des échantillons (polarité, solubilité, poids moléculaire…). De plus, l’introduction de matrices organiques dans les sources plasma reste un réel défi qu’il a fallu évaluer, celles-ci pouvant être la cause de nombreuses contraintes analytiques. Enfin, une fois la méthodologie off-line SECxRPLC-ICP-MS/MS développée, elle a été appliquée à différents échantillons montrant qu’elle peut être considérée comme une solution intéressante pour expliquer le comportement de certaines matrices au sein des unités de raffinage, par l’intermédiaire de la comparaison de cartographies 2D / Two-dimensional liquid chromatography coupled with a specific detection such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LCxLC-ICP-MS/MS) proves to be a relevant technique for the characterization of petroleum complex matrices. Such coupling makes it possible to consider the speciation of sulfur or metal contaminants (vanadium and nickel). Firstly, the evaluation and the comparison of several sample introduction systems was performed, with regard to the dispersion induced in the system, in order to keep a high efficiency from the LCxLC system. The second part of the instrumental development concern the optimization of both dimensions. The choice of the different retention mechanisms is essential given the complexity of the samples (polarity, solubility, molecular weight...). Additionally, the introduction of organic matrices in the plasma remains a real challenge which could be the cause of many instrumental and analytical issue. Finally, once the off-line SECxRPLC-ICP-MS/MS method was developed, it was applied to different samples showing how it can be considered as an interesting tool to explain the behavior of matrices within the refining units, through the comparison of 2D-contour plots
