title: Kneading ball-milling and stoichiometric melts for the quantitative derivatization of carbonyl compounds with gas-solid recovery.
abstract: A ray of hope for the environment is sustainable and green synthesis without the production of (toxic) waste. Solvent-free stoichiometric melting or kneading ball-milling reactions of aldehydes or ketones with carbonyl reagents yields arylhydrazones and oximes in quantitative yield. The carbonyl compounds can be quantitatively recovered from the imino derivatives by using gaseous NO(2).An effective methodology of kneading with a ball mill under temperature control was used for the stoichiometric quantitative preparation of synthetically versatile oximes and 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones from low-melting aldehydes and ketones. Also, a large number of phenylhydrazones are obtained by safe stoichiometric quantitative melt reactions. Advantages of this technique are short reaction times, eco-friendliness, and ease of handling under solvent-free conditions, as no waste-producing purifying workup is necessary. The different reactivities of aldehydes and ketones allow for easy separation of mixtures containing aldehydes and ketones. Furthermore, a new effective, gas-solid deprotection methodology for oximes was developed, using nitrogen dioxide as the reagent under solvent-free conditions to recover the aldehydes or ketones. The corresponding aldehydes were obtained free of overoxidized acids in quantitative yields.
