- HOMOGENEOUS PALLADIUM-CATALYSED ARYLATION OF ACTIVATED ALKENES WITH ARYL CHLORIDES
-
A study has been made of arylation of activated alkenes with aryl chlorides homogeneously catalysed by palladium acetate in the presence of triphenylphosphine or tri-p-tolylphosphine.Electron-withdrawing substituents in the aryl chloride favour the reaction.Only moderate yields could be obtained, and the maximum turnover number was 51, mainly because of precipitation of palladium metal.The probable mechanism of the reaction is discussed.

- Larvicidal activity and in silico studies of cinnamic acid derivatives against Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)
-
Cinnamic acid derivatives (CAD's) represent a great alternative in the search for insecticides against Aedes aegypti mosquitoes since they have antimicrobial and insecticide properties. Ae. aegypti is responsible for transmitting Dengue, Chikungunya, and Zika viruses, among other arboviruses associated with morbimortality, especially in developing countries. In view of this, in vitro analyses of n-substituted cinnamic acids and esters were performed upon 4th instar larvae (L4) of Ae. aegypti, as well as, molecular docking studies to propose a potential biological target towards this mosquitoes species. The larvicide assays proved that n-substituted ethyl cinnamates showed a more pronounced activity than their corresponding acids, in which p-chlorocinnamate (3j) presented a LC50 value of 8.3 μg/mL. Thusly, external morphologic alterations (rigid and elongated body, curved bowel, and translucent or darkened anal papillae) of mosquitoes’ group exposed to compound 3j, were observed by microscopy. In addition, an analytical method was developed for the quantification of the most promising analog by using high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UV). Molecular docking studies suggested that the larvicide action is associated with inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme. Therefore, expanding the larvicidal study with the cinnamic acid derivatives against the vector Ae. aegypti is important for finding search for more effective larvicides and with lower toxicity, since they have already shown good larvicidal properties against Ae. aegypti.

- Pd/Cu-Free Cobalt-Catalyzed Suzuki and Heck Using Green Bio-Magnetic Hybrid and DFT-Based Theoretical Study
-
Abstract: Several highly efficient and magnetically recyclable cobalt catalytic systems were prepared using magnetic chitosan and some safe and available organic compounds (Co-ligand@MNPs/Ch). The structure of these nanocomposites was confirmed by various physicochemical techniques such as FT-IR, XRD, TGA, VSM, TEM, SEM, CHNS and ICP-OES. These nano composites exhibit remarkable catalytic efficiency for Suzuki and Heck cross-coupling reactions in mild and green reaction conditions. The facile accessibility of starting materials, possible performance in air and eco-friendly conditions are merits of our catalysts. In addition, to describe and go insight to role and effect of ligands present in these catalysts, electrostatic interactions, density functional theory (DFT) model in molecular method were employed.

- 1,3-Diphenyldisiloxane Enables Additive-Free Redox Recycling Reactions and Catalysis with Triphenylphosphine
-
The recently reported chemoselective reduction of phosphine oxides with 1,3-diphenyldisiloxane (DPDS) has opened up the possibility of additive-free phosphine oxide reductions in catalytic systems. Herein we disclose the use of this new reducing agent as an enabler of phosphorus redox recycling in Wittig, Staudinger, and alcohol substitution reactions. DPDS was successfully utilized in ambient-temperature additive-free redox recycling variants of the Wittig olefination, Appel halogenation, and Staudinger reduction. Triphenylphosphine-promoted catalytic recycling reactions were also facilitated by DPDS. Additive-free triphenylphosphine-promoted catalytic Staudinger reductions could even be performed at ambient temperature due to the rapid nature of phosphinimine reduction, for which we characterized kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. These results demonstrate the utility of DPDS as an excellent reducing agent for the development of phosphorus redox recycling reactions.

- A de novo peroxidase is also a promiscuous yet stereoselective carbene transferase
-
By constructing an in vivo-assembled, catalytically proficient peroxidase, C45, we have recently demonstrated the catalytic potential of simple, de novo-designed heme proteins. Here, we show that C45's enzymatic activity extends to the efficient and stereoselective intermolecular transfer of carbenes to olefins, heterocycles, aldehydes, and amines. Not only is this a report of carbene transferase activity in a completely de novo protein, but also of enzyme-catalyzed ring expansion of aromatic heterocycles via carbene transfer by any enzyme.

- Effect of Reaction Media on Photosensitized [2+2]-Cycloaddition of Cinnamates
-
The outcome of photosensitized [2+2]-cycloaddition reactions of various cinnamates has been compared in different reaction media, including homogeneous organic solutions under inert conditions, degassed water, and aerated physical gels. The reactions were performed under LED blue light (λmax=455 nm) irradiation and [Ir{dF(CF3)ppy}2(dtb-bpy)]PF6 (1.0 mol%) as photocatalyst. The processes were optimized taking into consideration solvent, gelator, and substrate. Comparative kinetics analyses, as well as the effect of the reaction media on the diastereoselectivity of the process, were evaluated during this investigation. In a number of cases, carrying out the reaction in a less polar solvent, like toluene or highly polar solvent, like water had a tremendous impact on the diastereoselectivity of the process, pointing towards an effect on the stabilization of the putative diradical intermediate in this medium. Moreover, while for reactions run in homogeneous solution oxygen needs to be excluded, no erosion in yield is observed when the photoadditions were run in aerated gel media.

- Palladium Immobilized on 2,2′-Dipyridyl-Based Hypercrosslinked Polymers as a Heterogeneous Catalyst for Suzuki–Miyaura Reaction and Heck Reaction
-
Abstract: 2,2′-Bipyridine was successfully integrated into the skeleton of hypercrosslinked polymers networks (HCPs-bipy) via Friedel–Crafts reaction and Scholl coupling reaction, and PdCl2 was locked in this network polymers by coordination with pyridine motif. The preparation of HCPs-bipy has the advantages of low cost, mild conditions, easy separation and high yield. FT-IR, TGA, N2 sorption, ICP, XPS, SEM, EDX and TEM was employed to characterize the structure and composition of the heterogeneous catalysts. The result indicates that HCPs-bipy-Pd possess high specific surface areas, large microporous volume, thermal stability, and highly dispersion of palladium species. HCPs-bipy-Pd can be applied in Suzuki–Miyaura reactions and Heck reactions as robust heterogeneous catalyst to afford high yield. The reusability test demonstrates that HCPs-bipy-Pd could be recovered and reused for at least five times without losing catalytic activity. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

- Copper-catalyzed Mizoroki-Heck coupling reaction using an efficient and magnetically reusable Fe3O4@SiO2@PrNCu catalyst
-
This study intends to design and prepare a new magnetic copper catalyst and its activity was assessed by carbon-carbon coupling reactions. For this purpose, 1-[3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl] urea (TMSPU), hydrazine and CuI were used sequentially to modify Fe3O4@SiO2 core-shell magnetic nanoparticles to obtain an efficient magnetic transition metal catalyst. Various analytical techniques were used to characterize the catalyst to show that the achieved structure and its properties are well-suited for coupling reactions. Finally, Mizoroki-Heck and Ullmann coupling reactions were performed using Fe3O4@SiO2@PrNCu catalyst. The new catalyst offer simple synthetic procedure, convenient use for routine casework and low price. The Fe3O4@SiO2@PrNCu catalyst was easily separated by means of a permanent and ordinary magnet and the recovered catalyst was reused in six cycles without any significant loss of activity.

-
The new ferromagnetic nanostructured FMMWCNTs@CPA@SMTU@PdII NPs (IV) as an eco-friendly heterogeneous nanocatalyst with a particle size of ~20-30 nm reported earlier by our group has been found to be very effective for Suzuki-Miyaura and Mizoroki-Heck cross-coupling reactions at ambient temperature. The procedure has been applied for a wide range of aryl halides, arylboronic acids, and alkenes. The magnetic separation by an external magnetic field, mild reaction conditions, and catalyst reusability up to four times without significant decrease in catalytic activity (reduced catalytic activity from 11 to 18 % in the fifth, sixth, and seventh cycles) made the present method sustainable and economically viable for C-C cross-coupling reactions.

- Threonine stabilizer-controlled well-dispersed small palladium nanoparticles on modified magnetic nanocatalyst for Heck cross-coupling process in water
-
We report the synthesis of magnetically separable Fe3O4@Silica-Threonine-Pd0 magnetic nanoparticles with a core–shell structure. After synthesis of Fe3O4@Silica, threonine as an efficient stabilizer/ligand was bonded to the surface of Fe3O4@Silica. Then, palladium nanoparticles were generated on the threonine-modified catalyst. The threonine stabilizer helps to generate palladium nanoparticles of small size (less than 4?nm) with high dispersity and uniformity. Magnetically separable Fe3O4@Silica-Threonine-Pd0 nanocatalyst was fully characterized using various techniques. This nanocatalyst efficiently catalysed the Heck cross-coupling reaction of a variety of substrates in water medium as a green, safe and inexpensive solvent at 80°C. The Fe3O4@Silica-Threonine-Pd0 catalyst was used for at least eight successful consecutive runs with palladium leaching of only 0.05%.

- Palladium catalyst immobilized on functionalized microporous organic polymers for C-C coupling reactions

Two microporous organic polymer immobilized palladium (MOP-Pd) catalysts were prepared from benzene and 1,10-phenanthroline by Scholl coupling reaction and Friedel-Crafts reaction, respectively. The structure and composition of the catalyst were characterized by FT-IR, TGA, N2 sorption, SEM, TEM, ICP-AES and XPS. MOP-Pd catalysts were found to possess high specific surface areas, large pore volume and low skeletal bone density. Moreover, the immobilized catalyst also had advantages, such as readily available raw materials, chemical and thermal stability, and low synthetic cost. The Pd catalyst is an effective heterogeneous catalyst for carbon-carbon (C-C) coupling reactions, such as the Heck reaction and Suzuki-Miyaura reaction, affording good to high yields. In these reactions, the catalyst was easily recovered and reused five times without significant activity loss.

- Pd-chelated 1,3,5-triazine organosilica as an active catalyst for Suzuki and Heck reactions
-
Design of novel functional periodic mesoporous organosilica with molecular level control finds applications in several fields of energy and environmental research including adsorption, catalysis, nanotechnology, and energy harvesting. Herein we present a melamine (1,3,5-triazine) functionalized periodic mesoporous silica (MPMO) by self-assembly of N2,N4,N6-tris(3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine (TTET) with tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) via cocondensation strategy. The TTET silsesquioxane precursor was synthesized by the condensation reaction between cyanuric chloride and 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane. The resultant MPMO material serves as an effective solid chelating agent through amine and triazine functionalities for Pd(II) to provide Pd-MPMO. The Pd-MPMO material was thoroughly characterized by a small-angle XRD, HRTEM, N2 sorption, 13C CP-MAS NMR, 29Si CP-MAS NMR, and ICP analyses. The Pd-MPMO serves as an active catalyst for C–C bond formation reactions by Suzuki- and Heck cross-coupling methodologies under ligand- and cocatalyst-free conditions. Notably, the present catalytic protocol demonstrates a wide spectrum of substrate scope towards Suzuki coupling between aryl halides (I?, Br?, Cl?) and aryl boronic acids with high turn-over-number (TON) in aqueous phase under air ambience. Whereas for Heck-coupling reaction, the phenyl iodides furnished high TON than the other aryl halides. Investigation of Pd-leaching by a hot filtration test as well as reusability experiments confirms the true heterogeneous nature of present Pd-MPMO and its robustness in terms of substrate scope, catalyst stability, and durability.

- Metallosurfactant based Pd-Ni alloy nanoparticles as a proficient catalyst in the Mizoroki Heck coupling reaction
-
A highly efficient, operationally simple and green catalytic approach involving Pd-Ni alloy nanoparticles (NPs) has been developed using microwaves (MWs) as an energy source and water-ethanol as a solvent system. Metallosurfactants were synthesized and used as precursors to fabricate Pd-Ni alloy NPs with a good control over the size and morphology. Surfactant capped zerovalent Pd-Ni alloy NPs were fabricated in the metallomicellar cores by a two-phase reduction method. The synthesized NPs exhibited the highest catalytic efficiency for the stereoselective Mizoroki Heck coupling featuring short reaction time, mild reaction conditions, wide substrate scope, preclusion of toxic organic solvents, easy recovery and recyclability of the catalyst.

- Silica-coated nano-Fe3O4-supported iminopyridine palladium complex as an active, phosphine-free and magnetically separable catalyst for Heck reactions

A novel magnetic nanoparticle-supported iminopyridine palladium complex was successfully prepared by attaching palladium acetate to iminopyridine ligand-functionalized silica-coated nano-Fe3O4. The as-prepared catalyst was well characterized and was evaluated in Heck reactions in terms of activity and recyclability. It was found to be highly efficient for the reactions of various aryl iodides and aryl bromides having electron-withdrawing groups with olefins under phosphine-free and inert atmosphere-free conditions. Moreover, the catalyst could be conveniently recovered using an external magnet, and the recyclability was influenced by the base in the Heck reaction. The catalyst could be reused at least six times with no significant loss in activity when triethylamine acted as the base.

- Palladium on Polydopamine: Its True Potential in Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenations and Heck Coupling Reactions
-
The application of Pd–polydopamine and magnetic Fe3O4@Pd–polydopamine catalysts in catalytic transfer hydrogenation reactions and the Heck arylation is reported. The reduction of a wide range of aromatic nitro-compounds bearing both electron-donating and -withdrawing substituents to the corresponding anilines could be efficiently performed, although the reduction of carbonyl compounds was found to be less general. In the latter case, only aromatic ketones could be reduced to the corresponding alcohols, whereas aldehyde substrates were unaffected, which may be owing to their reaction with the catalyst support leading to catalyst deactivation. By using magnetic Fe3O4@Pd–polydopamine system, facilitated catalyst recovery and reuse for five consecutive cycles without considerable loss of activity in nitro-group reduction. The efficiency of the catalyst in Heck reactions was comparable to that in transfer hydrogenation, however, no catalytic activity was observed upon reuse in this case, likely as a result of metal leaching. We also explored tandem Heck reaction/catalytic transfer hydrogenation sequences, however, the two reactions showed limited compatibility under the applied conditions.

- Flexible, dicationic imidazolium salts for in situ application in palladium-catalysed Mizoroki–Heck coupling of acrylates under aerobic conditions
-
The synthesis, characterization and in situ catalytic performance of new unsymmetric N,N′-disubstituted imidazolium-based dicationic salts in Mizoroki–Heck coupling of acrylates with aryl bromides under aerobic conditions are described. A series of flexible dicationic salts with varying steric and electronic properties were synthesized in good to excellent yields. All the salts were well characterized using spectroscopic techniques. X-ray diffraction analysis of two salts with the same dicationic backbone and different counter anions shows that the ligand adopts two different conformations which are influenced by the nature of the anion. Thus, the ligand is capable of changing its conformation according to the change in environment due to its flexible nature. All the synthesized imidazolium salts were found to be active in in situ palladium-catalysed Mizoroki–Heck coupling under aerobic conditions. Amongst the salts, the hydroxyl-functionalized imidazolium salt, incorporating the features of both bidentate chelating O,O ligand and carbene, shows the maximum catalytic activity. A variety of aryl and heteroaryl methyl and ethyl cinnamates were synthesized using these imidazolium salts as preligands. In addition, NMR studies confirm in situ generation of normal N-heterocyclic carbenes from the C-2 position of imidazol-2-ylidene ring. The mercury poisoning test was also performed to ascertain the nature of catalytically active palladium species. Aerobic conditions, low catalytic loading (0.5?mol%), shorter reaction times, broad functional group tolerance and good to excellent isolated yields are some of the significant features of the novel catalytic systems described here.

In this paper, an N-heterocyclic carbene-cobalt complex (NHC-Co2+) was immobilized onto the surface of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) via direct grafting amination approach for the first time. The resultant composite (Co - NHC@MWCNTs) was characterized by FT-IR, TGA, XRD, ICP-OES, FE-SEM, TEM and CHN analyses. It was demonstrated that Co-NHC@MWCNTs can act as an efficient and inexpensive catalyst for Heck reactions in normal conditions which provided the corresponding products in moderate to good yields. More importantly, this phosphine and palladium-free catalyst can be reused for at least six successive runs without any discernible decrease in its catalytic activity and no remarkable changes were observed in catalyst structure.

- Imidazolyl-Functionalized Ordered Mesoporous Polymer from Nanocasting as an Effective Support for Highly Dispersed Palladium Nanoparticles in the Heck Reaction
-
New imidazolyl-functionalized ordered mesoporous cross-linked polymers were prepared by the copolymerization of the ionic liquid 3-benzyl-1-vinyl-1H-imidazolium bromide with divinylbenzene as the cross-linker and azobisisobutyronitrile as the radical initiator in the presence of O-silylated SBA-15 as the hard template. The materials were characterized by N2 adsorption–desorption analysis, TEM, thermogravimetric analysis, elemental analysis, and FTIR spectroscopy. The material, which benefits from the use of entrapped ionic liquid in the prepared polymer matrix in combination with its ordered mesoporous structure, is an excellent environment for the stabilization of highly dispersed Pd nanoparticles to result in a recyclable catalyst system with a significant activity in the Heck coupling reaction of aryl halides. The presence of well-distributed imidazolium functionalities in the polymeric framework might be responsible for the relatively uniform and nearly atomic scale distribution of Pd nanoparticles throughout the mesoporous structure and the prevention of Pd agglomeration during the reaction, which results in high durability, high stability, and good recycling characteristics of the catalyst. Although our catalyst system operates in a homogeneous pathway, it is also very stable and recyclable.

- Quantitative Structure-Property Relationship (QSPR) models for a local quantum descriptor: Investigation of the 4- and 3-substituted-cinnamic acid esterification
-
In this work, the theoretical description of the 4- and 3-substituted-cinnamic acid esterification with different electron donating and electron withdrawing groups was performed at the B3LYP and M06-2X levels, as a two-step process: the O-protonation and the nucleophile attack by ethanol. In parallel, an experimental work devoted to the synthesis and characterization of the substituted-cinnamate esters has also been performed. In order to quantify the substituents effects, quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) models based on the atomic charges, Fukui functions and the Frontier Effective-for-Reaction Molecular Orbitals (FERMO) energies were investigated. In fact, the Fukui functions, f+C and f-O, indicated poor correlations for each individual step, and in contrast with the general literature, the O-protonation step is affected both by the FERMO energies and the O-charges of the carbonyl group. Since the process was shown to not be totally described by either charge- or frontier-orbitals, it is proposed to be frontier-charge-miscere controlled. Moreover, the observed trend for the experimental reaction yields suggests that the electron withdrawing groups favor the reaction and the same was observed for Step 2, which can thus be pointed out as the determining step.

Iron(IV)-corrole complexes were first investigated as catalysts for olefination of aldehydes with ethyl diazoacetate in the presence of triphenylphosphine. Efficient olefination of aromatic aldehydes with high trans-selectivity was observed, showing iron corrole is a new kind of promising catalyst for olefination reaction. Transformation of the phosphazine to ylide by iron(IV) corrole was proved to be the key step in the present system.

- OMS-2 for aerobic, catalytic, one-pot alcohol oxidation-wittig reactions: Efficient access to α,β-unsaturated esters
-
Manganese oxide octahedral molecular sieve (OMS) materials with well-defined pores have been extensively studied over two decades due to their intriguing chemical and physical properties. OMS-2, the synthetic cryptomelane form of manganese oxide, was synthesized by a modified reflux method and was found to be highly active for obtaining α,β-unsaturated esters (up to 95 % yield and with high diastereoselectivities) from a variety of benzyl, heteroaryl, allyl and alkyl alcohols via one-pot alcohol oxidation-Wittig reaction. The transformation utilizes air as the stoichiometric oxidant, and the inexpensive catalyst can be recovered and reused. Filter and use again! Porous manganese oxide molecular sieve based catalysts were found to efficiently promote the oxidation of a variety of alcohols to the aldehydes, which reacted insitu with stabilized Wittig reagent, providing almost exclusively E-α,β-unsaturated esters in good to excellent yields. The heterogeneous catalyst used was made from inexpensive starting materials, and the recovered catalyst was found to be reusable with a modest loss in activity.

- Palladium supported on zinc oxide nanoparticles: Synthesis, characterization, and application as heterogeneous catalyst for Mizoroki-Heck and Sonogashira reactions under ligand-free and air atmosphere conditions
-
In this paper, a novel Palladium (Pd) supported on ZnO nanoparticles was readily synthesized and characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and BET specific surface area measurement. The total amount of palladium particles on ZnO was determined by induced coupled plasma (ICP) analysis and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) which is 9.8 wt%. Percentage of accessible Pd as active catalyst is also estimated to 2.72% based on the thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. Nano Pd/ZnO was found as a new, novel, and excellent heterogeneous catalyst for ligand-free C-C bond formation through the Mizoroki-Heck and Sonogashira reactions under air atmosphere without the use of any Ar or N2 flow. The catalyst can be recovered and recycled several times without marked loss of activity.

- Highly active, selective, and reusable RuO2/SWCNT catalyst for heck olefination of aryl halides
-
Very fine RuO2 nanoparticles (RuO2NPs) with a mean diameter of about 0.9 nm were decorated on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) by a straightforward "dry synthesis" method. TEM images and the Raman spectrum of the resultant material (RuO2/SWCNT) revealed excellent adhesion and homogeneous dispersion of the RuO2NPs on anchoring sites of the SWCNTs. The surface area of RuO2/SWCNT was found to be 416 m2 g-1. The SEM-EDS results showed that the weight percentage of Ru in RuO2/SWCNT was 13.8%. The oxidation state of Ru in RuO2/SWCNT was +4, as confirmed by XPS and XRD analyses. After the complete characterization, a 0.9 mol % loading of RuO 2/SWCNT was used as a nanocatalyst for the Heck olefination of a wide range of aryl halides to yield products in excellent yields with good turnover numbers and turnover frequencies. Less reactive bromo-and chloroarenes were also used for the formation of coupled products in good yields. RuO 2/SWCNT is regioselective, chemoselective, heterogeneous in nature, and reusable. The stability of RuO2/SWCNT was also studied by means of TEM, ICP-MS, SEM-EDS, and XPS analyses.

- Modification of silica using piperazine for immobilization of palladium nanoparticles: A study of its catalytic activity as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for Heck and Suzuki reactions
-
An efficient heterogeneous palladium catalyst system has been developed based on immobilization of Pd nanoparticles on silica-bonded N-propylpiperazine (SBNPP) substrate. SBNPP substrate can stabilize the Pd nanoparticles effectively so that it can improve their stability against aggregation. Also, grafted piperazine species onto the silica backbone prevents the removing of Pd nanoparticles from the substrate surface. It seems that the high recyclable capability of Pd-SBNPP catalysts is resulted from these two characteristics. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) of catalyst is shown the size of Pd nanoparticles in Pd-SBNPP average of 20 nm. Furthermore, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) of Pd-SBNPP is shown the presence of Pd(0) in the structure of this catalyst. Overall, TEM, XPS and XRD experiments strongly suggested that Pd nanoparticles were formed and immobilized on silica-functionalized piperazine. The catalytic activity of this catalyst was investigated in the Heck and Suzuki reactions. The catalyst could be recycled several times without appreciable loss in catalytic activity.

- Synthesis of a novel 8-hydroxyquinoline functionalized poly (ethylene glycol) bridged dicationic ionic liquid and its application in palladium-catalyzed Heck reaction under solvent-free conditions
-
A novel 8-hydroxyquinoline functionalized poly (ethylene glycol) bridged dicationic ionic liquid ([HQ-PEG1000-DIL][BF4]) was synthesized and characterized. It was applied as an efficiently recyclable ligand for Pd-catalyzed Heck reaction under solvent-free conditions. It is noteworthy that the Pd(OAc)2/[HQ-PEG1000-DIL][BF 4] catalytic system could be easily recovered and reused without obvious loss of catalytic activity after five recycling runs.

- Sustainable carbonecarbon bond formation catalyzed by new oxamate-containing palladium(II) complexes in ionic liquids
-
New and versatile bis(oxamato)palladate(II) complexes of formula (n-Bu 4N)2[Pd(2-Mepma)2]·4H2O (1a) and (n-Bu4N)2[Pd(4-Mepma)2]·2H 2O·MeCN (1b) (n-Bu4N+ = tetra-n-buthylammonium, 2-Mepma = N- 2-methylphenyloxamate and 4-Mepma = N-4-methylphenyloxamate) have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic methods and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Each palladium(II) ion in 1a and 1b is four-coordinate with two oxygen and two nitrogen atoms from two fully deprotonated oxamate ligands building a centrosymmetric square planar surrounding. Their catalytic role has been investigated for both Heck and Suzuki coupling reactions using a series of aryl iodide/bromide derivatives in tetra-n-butylammonium bromide (n-Bu 4NBr) as ionic liquid, i.e. molten salt. These precatalysts appear as highly efficient, easily recovered and reused at least eight times without any drastic loss of their exceptional reactivity or leaching from the ionic liquid medium.

- Synthesis of substituted nitroolefins: A copper catalyzed nitrodecarboxylation of unsaturated carboxylic acids
-
A novel, mild and convenient method for the nitrodecarboxylation of substituted cinnamic acid derivatives to their nitroolefins is achieved using a catalytic amount of CuCl (10 mol%) and tert-butyl nitrite (2 equiv.) as a nitrating agent in the presence of air. This reaction provides a useful method for the synthesis of β,β-disubstituted nitroolefin derivatives, which are generally difficult to access from other conventional methods. Additionally, this reaction is selective as the E-isomer of the acid derivatives furnishes the corresponding E-nitroolefins. One more salient feature of the method is, unlike other methods, no metal nitrates or HNO3 are employed for the transformation.

- Stereoselective olefination and regiospecific vicinal difunctionalization of imines with α-(benzothiazol-2-ylsulfonyl) carbonyl compounds
-
Depending on their structures, imines are able to undergo either olefination or vicinal difunctionalization with various α-(benzothiazol-2- ylsulfonyl) carbonyl compounds in the absence of external bases. The olefination reaction of aromatic imines with α-(benzothiazol-2-ylsulfonyl) carbonyl compounds proceeds smoothly in tetrahydrofuran at 70 °C to give structurally diverse α,β-unsaturated esters, amides, and ketones in good to excellent yields and with extremely high (E) selectivity. In contrast, the carbon-nitrogen double bonds of cyclic imines and the carbon-carbon double bonds of α,β-unsaturated imines are subjected to regiospecific vicinal difunctionalization with α-(benzothiazol-2-ylsulfonyl) carbonyl compounds under the same reaction conditions to give a variety of benzothiazole derivatives in good to excellent yields. It is noteworthy that the benzothiazole moiety is present in a number of antitumor agents and bioluminescent molecules. In addition, plausible reaction pathways have been proposed to account for these transformations, and these are substantially supported by ESI-MS analysis of the reaction mixtures.

- Solid supported palladium(0) nano/microparticle: A ligand-free efficient recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for mono- and β,β-double-Heck reaction
-
Solid supported palladium nano/microparticles were found to be active catalysts to perform mono- and β,β-double-Heck reactions. Different β-unsubstituted and substituted alkenes including acrylate, methacrylate, crotonate, styrene, acrylonitrile, and acrylamide were investigated successfully for mono- and β,β-double-Heck reactions with aryl iodide under milder reaction condition. One-pot β,β-double-Heck reaction of aryl iodides with α,β-unsaturated ester, amide, nitrile, and styrene derivatives were also performed under standard reaction conditions. Wide functional group tolerance, easy catalyst recovery, and recyclability up to twelve times without significant loss of catalytic activity added extra importance to the present process.

- Contrasting reactivity of 2-mesityl-1,8-naphthyridine (Mes-NP) with singly-bonded [RhIIRhII] and [RuIRu I] compounds
-
Reaction of cis-[Rh2(CH3COO) 2 (CH 3CN) 6](BF4)2 with two equivalents of 2-mesityl-1,8- naphthyridine (Mes-NP) affords trans-[Rh2(CH3COO) 2(Mes-NP) 2](BF4) 2 (1). X-ray structure reveals weak RhC(ipso) interaction, and a short RhRh distance. The same ligand, in contrast, oxidatively cleaves the RuRu bond in cis-[Ru2 (CO) 4 (CH3CN) 6](BF4)2 and results in trans-[Ru(Mes-NP) 2 (CH3CN) 2](BF4)2 (2). Both compounds adopt trans geometry to relieve the steric strain. Compound 2 exhibits moderate activity for the alcohol oxidation and aldehyde olefination reactions. CSIRO 2011.

- Site-directed anchoring of an N-heterocyclic carbene on a dimetal platform: Evaluation of a pair of diruthenium(i) catalysts for carbene-transfer reactions from ethyl diazoacetate
-
Site-directed anchoring of naphthyridine-functionalized N-heterocylic carbene (NHC) is achieved on a metal-metal singly bonded diruthenium(I) platform. Room-temperature treatment of 1-isopropyl-3-(5,7-dimethyl-1,8- naphthyrid-2-yl)imidazolium bromide (PINA·HBr) with Ru 2(CH3COO)2(CO)4 in acetonitrile affords the unsupported compound Ru2(CO) 4(μ2C2,N1-PIN)2Br 2 (1). Judicious alteration in the NHC ligand resulted in the bridged compound Ru2(CO)4(CH3COO)(μ2- μ2C2,N1-BIN)Br (2) (BIN = 1-benzyl-3-(3-phenyl-1,8-naphthyrid-2-yl)imidazol-2-ylidene). X-ray analysis revealed the chelate binding of PIN on each ruthenium at equatorial sites for 1, and the bridge-chelate binding of BIN spanning the diruthenium core for 2. The catalytic utilities of the BArF (tetrakis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl) phenyl)borate) salts of these compounds are evaluated toward carbene-transfer reactions from ethyl diazoacetate including aldehyde olefination, cyclopropanation, and X-H (X = O, N) insertions. 1-BArF is clearly shown to be the superior catalyst. DFT calculations are undertaken to understand the influence of NHC binding on the electronic structures of the "Ru 2(CO)4" core and to rationalize the lower activity of 2-BArF.

Compound 1 catalyzes transfer hydrogenation of ketones to alcohols, and carbene-transfer from ethyl diazoacetate to a variety of substrates. It is shown to be an excellent catalyst for the insertion of carbene into the O-H and N-H bonds of alcohols and amines.

- Organocatalytic decarboxylative Doebner-Knoevenagel reactions between arylaldehydes and monoethyl malonate mediated by a bifunctional polymeric catalyst
-
A bifunctional polystyrene bearing both DMAP and piperidine groups has been prepared and used as an organocatalyst for decarboxylative Doebner-Knoevenagel reactions of arylaldehydes and monoethyl malonate. Isolated yields of the resulting cinnamates were very high, and in all cases only the E-isomer was detected. When a polystyrene catalyst functionalized with only DMAP or piperidine groups was used in these reactions, catalysis was much less efficient. Furthermore, catalysis using a combination of the monofunctional polymers was also less efficient than with the bifunctional polystyrene. Thus, it appears that there is a synergistic effect obtained by co-locating the two different catalytic amine groups on the same polymer backbone. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.
