Replacing expensive noble metals like Pt, Pd, Ir, Ru, and Rh with inexpensive earth-abundant metals like cobalt (Co) is attracting wider research interest in catalysis. Cobalt catalysts are now undergoing a renaissance in hydrogenation reactions. Herein, we describe a hydrogenation method for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and olefins with a magnesium-activated earth-abundant Co catalyst. When diketimine was used as a ligand, simple and inexpensive metal salts of CoBr2in combination with magnesium showed high catalytic activity in the site-selective hydrogenation of challenging PAHs under mild conditions. Co-catalyzed hydrogenation enabled the reduction of two side aromatics of PAHs. A wide range of PAHs can be hydrogenated in a site-selective manner, which provides a cost-effective, clean, and selective strategy to prepare partially reduced polycyclic hydrocarbon motifs that are otherwise difficult to prepare by common methods. The use of well-defined diketimine-ligated Co complexes as precatalysts for selective hydrogenation of PAHs and olefins is also demonstrated.

Reduction of carbon-carbon double bonds is reported using a three-coordinate iron(ii) β-diketiminate pre-catalyst. The reaction is believed to proceedviaa formal transfer hydrogenation using poly(methylhydrosiloxane), PMHS, as the hydride donor and a bio-alcohol as the proton source. The reaction proceeds well usingn-butanol and ethanol, withn-butanol being used for substrate scoping studies. Allyl arene substrates, styrenes and aliphatic substrates all undergo reduction at room temperature. Unfortunately, clean transfer of a deuterium atom usingd-alcohol does not take place, indicating a complex catalytic mechanism. However, changing the deuterium source tod-aniline gives close to complete regioselectivity for mono-deuteration of the terminal position of the double bond. Finally, we demonstrate that efficient dehydrocoupling of alcohol and PMHS can be undertaken using the same pre-catalyst, giving high yields of H2within 30 minutes at room temperature.

Paragraph 0044-0051, (2021/05/22)
The invention provides application of a tungsten oxide supported monatomic catalyst in preparation of aromatic compounds by hydrogenolysis of lignin. According to the method, various beta-O-4 model molecules, organic lignin, lignosulfonate and alkali lignin are taken as raw materials, and high-selectivity cracking of aryl ether bonds is realized in a hydrogen atmosphere at the temperature of 150-240 DEG C and the pressure of 0.7-3.0 MPa to obtain the aromatic compound. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that when renewable natural biomass is used as the raw material and different lignin is used as the raw material for conversion, the highest yield of the aromatic bio-oil is 72%. Raw materials are cheap and wide in source; inorganic acid and alkali are not needed, and generation of a large amount of alkali liquor in traditional lignin catalysis is avoided; the method has the characteristics of cheap tungsten-based catalyst, green reaction process, atom economy and the like, and also has the characteristics of mild reaction conditions, high activity and selectivity, environment-friendly reaction process and the like.

Chemoselective deoxygenation of carbonyls and alcohols using hydrogen by heterogeneous base-metal catalysts is crucial for the sustainable production of fine chemicals and biofuels. We report an aluminum metal-organic framework (DUT-5) node support cobalt(II) hydride, which is a highly chemoselective and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for deoxygenation of a range of aromatic and aliphatic ketones, aldehydes, and primary and secondary alcohols, including biomass-derived substrates under 1 bar H2. The single-site cobalt catalyst (DUT-5-CoH) was easily prepared by postsynthetic metalation of the secondary building units (SBUs) of DUT-5 with CoCl2 followed by the reaction of NaEt3BH. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) indicated the presence of CoII and AlIII centers in DUT-5-CoH and DUT-5-Co after catalysis. The coordination environment of the cobalt center of DUT-5-Co before and after catalysis was established by extended X-ray fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS) and density functional theory. The kinetic and computational data suggest reversible carbonyl coordination to cobalt preceding the turnover-limiting step, which involves 1,2-insertion of the coordinated carbonyl into the cobalt-hydride bond. The unique coordination environment of the cobalt ion ligated by oxo-nodes within the porous framework and the rate independency on the pressure of H2 allow the deoxygenation reactions chemoselectively under ambient hydrogen pressure.
A regionally selective hydrogenation method for chromium-catalyzed thick cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and olefins based on magnesium-activated ligands
-
Paragraph 0020, (2022/01/10)
The present invention relates to the field of hydrogenation, specifically to a chromium-activated complex cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and olefins promoted by magnesium-activated ligands regionally selective hydrogenation method, which is based on the in situ reduction strategy of magnesium, with biimides as ligands, CrCl2 as catalyst precursors, to construct an efficient low-costchromium hydrogenation system, under mild conditions, to achieve unilateral cyclic hydrogenation of thick ring aromatic hydrocarbons and high-selective hydrogenation of olefins. The system of the present invention is suitable for a variety of substrates of fused cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, such as tetraphenyl, benzoanthracene, pentabenzo and alfalfa and the like. This provides a simple and efficient strategy and pathway for the synthesis of partially saturated thick cyclic aromatic hydrocarbon compounds.

Methods that enable the direct C?H alkoxylation of complex organic molecules are significantly underdeveloped, particularly in comparison to analogous strategies for C?N and C?C bond formation. In particular, almost all methods for the incorporation of alcohols by C?H oxidation require the use of the alcohol component as a solvent or co-solvent. This condition limits the practical scope of these reactions to simple, inexpensive alcohols. Reported here is a photocatalytic protocol for the functionalization of benzylic C?H bonds with a wide range of oxygen nucleophiles. This strategy merges the photoredox activation of arenes with copper(II)-mediated oxidation of the resulting benzylic radicals, which enables the introduction of benzylic C?O bonds with high site selectivity, chemoselectivity, and functional-group tolerance using only two equivalents of the alcohol coupling partner. This method enables the late-stage introduction of complex alkoxy groups into bioactive molecules, providing a practical new tool with potential applications in synthesis and medicinal chemistry.

Chemical transformations that install heteroatoms into C?H bonds are of significant interest because they streamline the construction of value-added small molecules. Direct C?H oxyfunctionalization, or the one step conversion of a C?H bond to a C?O bond, could be a highly enabling transformation due to the prevalence of the resulting enantioenriched alcohols in pharmaceuticals and natural products,. Here we report a single-flask photoredox/enzymatic process for direct C?H hydroxylation that proceeds with broad reactivity, chemoselectivity and enantioselectivity. This unified strategy advances general photoredox and enzymatic catalysis synergy and enables chemoenzymatic processes for powerful and selective oxidative transformations.

Iron-catalyzed hydromagnesiation of styrene derivatives offers a rapid and efficient method to generate benzylic Grignard reagents, which can be applied in a range of transformations to provide products of formal hydrofunctionalization. While iron-catalyzed methodologies exist for the hydromagnesiation of terminal alkenes, internal alkynes, and styrene derivatives, the underlying mechanisms of catalysis remain largely undefined. To address this issue and determine the divergent reactivity from established cross-coupling and hydrofunctionalization reactions, a detailed study of the bis(imino)pyridine iron-catalyzed hydromagnesiation of styrene derivatives is reported. Using a combination of kinetic analysis, deuterium labeling, and reactivity studies as well as in situ 57Fe M?ssbauer spectroscopy, key mechanistic features and species were established. A formally iron(0) ate complex [iPrBIPFe(Et)(CH2a?CH2)]- was identified as the principle resting state of the catalyst. Dissociation of ethene forms the catalytically active species which can reversibly coordinate the styrene derivative and mediate a direct and reversible β-hydride transfer, negating the necessity of a discrete iron hydride intermediate. Finally, displacement of the tridentate bis(imino)pyridine ligand over the course of the reaction results in the formation of a tris-styrene-coordinated iron(0) complex, which is also a competent catalyst for hydromagnesiation.
