p-Cresol as additive to the Grubbs second generation catalyst (GII) allows the cross-metathesis of acrylates with prop-1-en-1-ylbenzenes under conditions that only give the prop-1-en-1-ylbenzene self-metathesis product in the absence of cresol. NMR and IR spectroscopy, MALDI-TOF MS and XPS supported the formation of a ruthenium benzylidene with hydrogen bonds between p-cresol and the chloride ligands of GII. XPS furthermore confirmed p-cresol to increase the binding energies of the GII Ru 3d5/2, 3d3/2, 3p3/2 and 3p1/2 photoelectron lines, whereas 1H NMR spectroscopy indicated the carbene carbon and hydrogen to be shielded. It is thus postulated that p-cresol allows for more facile interaction between electron-deficient compounds and the ruthenium benzylidene by decreasing the electron density on the metal center and increasing the electron density on the carbene.

A series of new unsymmetrical (XYC–1 type) palladacycles (C1–C4) were designed and synthesized with simple anchoring ligands L1–4H (L1H = 2-((2-(4-methoxybenzylidene)-1-phenylhydrazinyl)methyl)pyridine, L2H = N,N-dimethyl-4-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)hydrazono)methyl)aniline, L3H = N,N-diethyl-4-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)hydrazono)methyl) aniline and L4H = 4-(4-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)hydrazono) methyl)phenyl)morpholine H = dissociable proton). Molecular structure of catalysts (C1–C4) were further established by single X-ray crystallographic studies. The catalytic performance of palladacycles (C1–C4) was explored with the direct Csp2–H arylation of imidazoles with aryl halide derivatives. These palladacycles were also applied for investigating of Mizoroki–Heck reactions with aryl halides and acrylate derivatives. During catalytic cycle in situ generated Pd(0) nanoparticles were characterized by XPS, SEM and TEM analysis and possible reaction pathways were proposed. The catalyst was employed as a pre-catalyst for the gram-scale synthesis of octinoxate, which is utilized as a UV-B sunscreen agent.

Heterogeneous single-site catalysts can combine the precise active site design of organometallic complexes with the efficient recovery of solid catalysts. Based on recent progress on homogeneous thioether ligands for Pd-catalyzed C-H activation reactions, we here develop a scalable metal-organic framework-based heterogeneous single-site catalyst containing S,O-moieties that increase the catalytic activity of Pd(II) for the oxidative alkenylation of arenes. The structure of the Pd?MOF-808-L1 catalyst was characterized in detail via solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, N2 physisorption, and high-angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy, and the structure of the isolated palladium active sites could be identified by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. A turnover frequency (TOF) of 8.4 h-1 was reached after 1 h of reaction time, which was 3 times higher than the TOF of standard Pd(OAc)2, ranking Pd?MOF-808-L1 among the most active heterogeneous catalysts ever reported for the nondirected oxidative alkenylation of arenes. Finally, we showed that the single-site catalyst promotes the oxidative alkenylation of a broad range of electron-rich arenes, and the applicability of this heterogeneous system was demonstrated by the gram-scale synthesis of industrially relevant products.
