- Highly selective aerobic oxidation of alkyl arenes and alcohols: Cobalt supported on natural hydroxyapatite nanocrystals
-
Cobalt was successfully immobilized on natural hydroxyapatite nanocrystals which were obtained from cow bones (Co-NHAp). The chemical, structural, and electronic properties of this nanobiocatalyst were investigated using flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. Natural hydroxyapatite (NHAp) as the support enhanced both catalytic activity and selectivity in the liquid phase aerobic oxidation of alkyl arenes and alcohols to their corresponding carbonyl compounds. The use of air as an inexpensive oxidant, the recyclability of the Co-NHAp nanobiocatalyst without significant decrease in its catalytic activity and easy workup are some advantages of this work.

- Transition metal complexes of a bis(carbene) ligand featuring 1,2,4-triazolin-5-ylidene donors: structural diversity and catalytic applications
-
Dialkylation of the 1,3-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)benzene with ethyl bromide results in the formation of [L-H2]Br2which, upon salt metathesis with NH4PF6, readily yields the bis(triazolium) salt [L-H2](PF6)2with non-coordinating counterions. [L-H2](PF6)2and Ag2O react in a 1?:?1 ratio to yield a binuclear AgI-tetracarbene complex of the composition [(L)2Ag2](PF6)2which undergoes a facile transmetalation reaction with [Cu(SMe2)Br] to deliver the corresponding CuI-NHC complex [(L)2Cu2](PF6)2. In contrast, the [L-H2]Br2reacts with [Ir(Cp*)Cl2]2to generate a doubly C-H activated IrIII-NHC complex5. Similarly, the triazolinylidene donor supported diorthometalated RuII-complex6is also obtained. Complexes5and6represent the first examples of a stable diorthometalated binuclear IrIII/RuII-complex supported by 1,2,4-triazolin-5-ylidene donors. The synthesized IrIII-NHC complex5is found to be more effective than its RuII-analogue (6) for the reduction of a range of alkenes/alkynesviathe transfer hydrogenation strategy. Conversely, RuII-complex6is identified as an efficient catalyst (0.01 mol% loading) for the β-alkylation of a wide range of secondary alcohols using primary alcohols as alkylating partnersviaa borrowing hydrogen strategy.

A sustainable and green route to access diverse functionalized ketones via dehydrogenative–dehydrative cross-coupling of primary and secondary alcohols is demonstrated. This borrowing hydrogen approach employing a pincer N-heterocyclic carbene Mn complex displays high activity and selectivity. A variety of primary and secondary alcohols are well tolerant and result in satisfactory isolated yields. Mechanistic studies suggest that this reaction proceeds via a direct outer-sphere mechanism and the dehydrogenation of the secondary alcohol substrates plays a vital role in the rate-limiting step.

- Method for synthesizing alpha-alkylated ketone in water
-
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing alpha-alkylated ketone in water. The method comprises the following steps: adding ketone, compound alcohol, a transition metal iridium catalyst, an alkali and a solvent, namely water into a reaction container, carrying out a reflux reaction on a reaction mixture in the air for several hours, carrying out cooling to room temperature, carrying out rotary evaporation to remove the solvent, and carrying out column separation (ethyl acetate/petroleum ether) to obtain a target compound, namely alpha-alkylated ketone.

Conversion of a wide range of N-Boc amides to aryl ketones was achieved with Grignard reagents via chemoselective C(O)-N bond cleavage. The reactions proceeded under catalyst-free conditions with different aryl, alkyl, and alkynyl Grignard reagents. α-Ketoamide was successfully converted to aryl diketones, while α,β-unsaturated amide underwent 1,4-addition followed by C(O)-N bond cleavage to provide diaryl propiophenones. N-Boc amides displayed higher reactivity than Weinreb amides with Grignard reagents. A broad substrate scope, excellent yields, and quick conversion are important features of this methodology.

A series of benzoxazolyl and benzothiazolyl phosphine ligands 4a-4g were synthesized and characterized, which prepared from commercially available 2-aminophenol/2-aminobenzenethiol and 2-bromobenzaldehyde via cyclization and phosphination. The representative ligands 4c and 4e were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The corresponding iridium complexes could be generated in situ when [Cp*IrCl2]2 (Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) encountered ligands. The molecular structures of complexes 5c and 5e were crystallographically characterized. The dihedral angles of N (1)-C (1)-C (8)-C (9) showed an increasing twist compared with the corresponding ligand. The iridium (III) catalysts were screened, [Cp*IrCl2]2/4a proved to be the optimal catalyst, which exhibited efficient catalytic activity toward versatile alkylations including ketones, secondary alcohols and amines with primary alcohols. Additionally, the synthesis of quinolines from ketones with 2-aminobenzyl alcohol by intermolecular cyclization and indole from 2-(2-aminophenyl)ethanol by intramolecular cyclization were achieved under the optimized conditions.

The atom economical borrowing hydrogen methodology enables the use of alcohols as alkylating agents for selective C-C bond formation. A bifunctional 2-(2-pyridyl-2-ol)-1,10-phenanthroline (phenpy-OH) based Ru(ii) complex (2) was found to be a highly efficient catalyst for the one-pot β-alkylation of secondary alcohols with primary alcohols and double alkylation of cyclopentanol with different primary alcohols. Exploiting the metal-ligand cooperativity in complex 2, several aromatic, aliphatic and heteroatom substituted alcohols were selectively cross-coupled in high yields using significantly low catalyst loading (0.1 mol%). An outer-sphere mechanism is proposed for this system as exogenous PPh3 has no significant effect on the rate of the reaction. Notably, this is a rare one-pot strategy for β-alkylation of secondary alcohols using a bifunctional Ru(ii)-complex. Moreover, this atom-economical methodology displayed the highest cumulative turn over frequency (TOF) among all the reported transition metal complexes in cross coupling of alcohols.

- Biaryl Ketones by Suzuki–Miyaura Cross-Coupling of Organotrifluoroborates and Acyl Chlorides
-
A procedure for the synthesis of biaryl ketones by a palladium-catalyzed Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction between phenyltrifluoroborates and benzoyl chlorides is described. Organotrifluoroborates are unique to other cross-coupling reagents as they have a high functional-group tolerance and are moisture-stable. Moderate to excellent yields were obtained for all substrates tested.

- Synthesis and catalytic applications of ruthenium(ii)-phosphino-oxime complexes
-
In this work, the preparation of the first ruthenium complexes containing a phosphino-oxime ligand is presented. Thus, the reaction of cis-[RuCl2(DMSO)4] (3) with 2.4 equivalents of 2-Ph2PC6H4CH=NOH (1) in refluxing THF led to the clean formation of the octahedral ruthenium(ii) derivative cis,cis,trans-[RuCl2{κ2-(P,N)-2-Ph2PC6H4CH=NOH}2] (5), whose structure was unambiguously confirmed by means of a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. Complex 5 could also be synthesized from the reaction of the dimer [{RuCl(μ-Cl)(η6-p-cymene)}2] (4) with an excess of 1 in refluxing toluene. Treatment of 4 with 2 equivalents of 1, in CH2Cl2 at r.t., allowed also the preparation of the half-sandwich Ru(ii) derivative [RuCl{κ2-(P,N)-2-Ph2PC6H4CH=NOH}(η6-p-cymene)][PF6] (6). In addition, complexes 5 and 6 proved to be active catalysts for the rearrangement of aldoximes to primary amides, as well as for the α-alkylation/reduction of acetophenones with primary alcohols, with the former showing the best performances in both processes.

- Cobalt(II), copper(II), and iron(II) tetrasulfophthalocyanines covalently supported on wool: Synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity
-
Functionalized wool with cobalt(II), copper(II), and iron(II) tetrasulfophthalocyanine (CoTSPc@wool, CuTSPc@wool, and FeTSPc@wool) have been synthesized and their structures characterized by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS), FT-IR, UV-vis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. The catalytic activity of the synthesized catalysts was investigated for the aerobic oxidation of alkyl arenes and alcohols to their corresponding carbonyl compounds in the absence of any co-promoter and additional oxidizing reagent. We found the best catalyst for the mentioned reactions is the CoTSPc@wool from the solvent, conversion, temperature, and reaction time point of views. The synthesized catalysts can be readily recycled and reused for several runs without significant loss of efficiency.

- Method for synthesizing alpha-alkyl ketone
-
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing alpha-alkyl ketone. The method comprises the following steps: adding ketone, a compound alcohol, an iridium complex catalyst, an alkali and a solvent tert-amyl alcohol in a reaction container, carrying out a refluxing reaction on the above obtained reaction mixture in air for several hours, cooling the obtained reaction product to room temperature, carrying out rotary evaporation to remove the solvent, and carrying out column separation to obtain the target compound. The meta-organic bifunctional iridium complex is used, only 0.1 equivalent carbonate is added in the reaction process, and the reaction is carried in air for 6h, so obvious advantages are displayed; and the reaction accords with green chemistry requirements, and has wide development prospect.

- Synthesis of a-Alkylated Ketones via Tandem Acceptorless Dehydrogenation/a-Alkylation from Secondary and Primary Alcohols Catalyzed by Metal-Ligand Bifunctional Iridium Complex [CpIr(2,2′-bpyO)(H2O)]
-
A new strategy for the synthesis of α-alkylated ketones via tandem acceptorless dehydrogenation/α-alkylation from secondary and primary alcohols was proposed and accomplished. In the presence of metal-ligand bifunctional iridium complex [CpIr(2,2′-bpyO)(H2O)], various desirable products were obtained in high yields. Compared with previous methods for the direct dehydrogenative coupling of secondary alcohols with primary alcohols to α-alkylated ketones, this protocol has obvious advantages including complete selectivity for α-alkylated ketones and more environmentally benign conditions. Notably, the study also exhibited the potential to develop tandem reactions catalyzed using a metal-ligand bifunctional iridium complex.

- A ruthenium-based catalytic system for a mild borrowing-hydrogen process
-
The alkylation of arylamines using stoichiometric amounts of aliphatic and benzylic alcohols in the presence of tBuOK was carried out at 55 °C using a low catalyst loading of [Ru(cod)-Cl2]n/PTA (1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane). The overall borrowing-hydrogen process does not require a controlled nitrogen atmosphere, and it could also be carried out at room temperature using higher loading of base. A wide range of substrates can be used in this transformation, and it has a good tolerance of different substituents. This catalytic system proved also to be efficient for other hydrogen-transfer reactions such as a tandem oxidation/C-C coupling between 1-phenylethanol and primary alcohols.

- Cellulose supported manganese dioxide nanosheet catalyzed aerobic oxidation of organic compounds
-
Cellulose supported manganese dioxide nanosheets, as a heterogeneous bio-supported and green catalyst, were synthesized by soaking porous cellulose in a potassium permanganate solution. The prepared catalyst was used effectively for the oxidation of various types of alkyl arenes, alcohols and sulfides to their corresponding carbonyl and sulfoxide compounds, respectively in high yields using air as the oxidant at ambient pressure. The catalyst can be recycled and reused in five runs without any significant loss of efficiency. The mild reaction conditions for the oxidation of alcohols and sulfides, high yields, recyclability of the catalyst, and very easy workup procedure are other advantages of this catalyst.

- Reductive bromine atom-transfer reaction
-
Atom-transfer radical (ATR) reactions of alkenes with R-X usually give products having new C-C and C-X bonds at the adjacent carbons. However, when the reaction was carried out under irradiation using a low-pressure Hg lamp, addition/reduction products were obtained in good yield. Hydrogen bromide, formed by H-abstraction of a bromine radical from alkenes, is likely to play a key role in the reductive ATR reaction.

- Dehydrogenative cross-coupling of primary and secondary alcohols
-
Homo-and cross-coupling of alcohols resulting in the formation of the corresponding ketones in very good to excellent yield was realized through the one-pot sequence of dehydrogenation/ aldol condensation/hydrogenation accompanied by the release of molecular hydrogen. The dehydrogenation and hydrogenation steps are catalyzed by the previously reported ruthernium-and iridiumbased ligand-metal cooperating catalysts.

- Palladium-catalyzed addition of potassium aryltrifluoroborates to aliphatic nitriles: Synthesis of alkyl aryl ketones, diketone compounds, and 2-arylbenzo[b]furans
-
A palladium-catalyzed addition of potassium aryltrifluoroborates to aliphatic nitriles has been developed, leading to a wide range of alkyl aryl ketones with moderate to excellent yields. Moreover, several dinitriles (e.g., malononitrile, glutaronitrile, and adiponitrile) were applicable to this process for the construction of 1,3-, 1,5-, or 1,6-dicarbonyl compounds. The scope of the developed approach is successfully explored toward the one-step synthesis of 2-arylbenzo[b]furans via sequential addition and intramolecular annulation reactions. The methodology accepted a wide range of substrates and is applicable to library synthesis.
