WO3–x (W-1) was used to achieve controllable photoisomerization of linear olefins without substituents under 625 nm light irradiation. Thermodynamic and kinetic isomers were obtained by regulating the carbon chain length of the olefins. Terminal olefins were converted into isomerized products, and the internal olefin mixtures present in petroleum derivatives were transformed into valuable pure olefin products. Oxygen vacancies (OVs) in W-1 altered the electronic structure of W-1 to improve its light-harvesting ability, which accounted for the high activity of olefin isomerization under light irradiation up to 625 nm. Additionally, OVs on the W-1 surface generated unsaturated W5+ sites that coordinated with olefins for the efficient adsorption and activation of olefins. Mechanistic studies reveal that the in situ formation of surface π-complexes and π-allylic W intermediates originating from the coordination of coordinated unsaturated W5+ sites and olefins ensure high photocatalytic activity and selectivity of W-1 for the photocatalytic isomerization of olefins via a radical mechanism.

Paragraph 0222; 0232, (2021/12/28)
Disclosed herein are methods for synthesizing fatty olefin metathesis products of high Z-isomeric purity from olefin feedstocks of low Z-isomeric purity. The methods include contacting a contacting an olefin metathesis reaction partner, such as acylated alkenol or an alkenal acetal, with an internal olefin in the presence of a Z-selective metathesis catalyst to form the fatty olefin metathesis product. In various embodiments, the fatty olefin metathesis products are insect pheromones. Pheromone compositions and methods of using them are also described.
The role of CO2 in the dehydrogenation of n-octane using Cr-Fe catalysts supported on MgAl2O4

The effect of CO2 on the dehydrogenation of n-octane over Cr-Fe oxides supported on MgAl2O4 (MgAl) was investigated. Addition of Fe as a promoter facilitated the formation of Cr-O-Fe polymeric units, stabilizing the CrOx in the +3 state on the catalysts’ surface. Catalytic results revealed that the 2Cr-Fe catalyst was the most active and also stable (ca. 10 % CO2 conversion, 8 % n-octane conversion, 84 % selectivity to octene isomers) during a 30 h reaction. The stability and high octenes selectivity over this catalyst was reflected in its higher surface basicity. Based on a redox study using CO2, it was found that the dominant mechanism for CO2 activation was oxidative (Mars van Krevelen) over the monometallic Cr catalyst, while a non-oxidative (Reverse Water Gas Shift) mechanism applied over the nCr-Fe bimetallic catalysts. It is proposed that Cr-O-MgAl is the active site in the monometallic Cr catalyst, while the Cr-O-Fe polymeric units are the active sites in the bimetallic catalysts. Coke deposition was shown to be the major cause of deactivation of the catalysts.

The use of continuous flow systems in chemical synthesis provides great advantages in terms of sustainability, efficiency, and safety. The ability to control reaction parameters such as temperature, pressure, and catalyst exposure in flow system enables rapid optimization of reaction conditions. In the present study, palladium complexes of 1-(piridin-2-il)-1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol, N-((1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-1-il)metil)piridin-2-amin, and (1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-1-yl)(pyridin-2-yl)methanone ligands were synthesized and characterized. The catalytic activities of complexes are investigated in the hydrogenation of various alkenes such as styrene, cyclohexene, and 1-octene under continuous flow conditions. The complexes showed very high activity at 10-bar H2 pressure and 50°C for short periods of 5–10?min. The catalysts reused for 10 cycles with no significant loss of catalytic activity.
Regioselective Isomerization of Terminal Alkenes Catalyzed by a PC(sp3)Pincer Complex with a Hemilabile Pendant Arm

, p. 5959 - 5965 (2020/10/15)
We describe an efficient protocol for the regioselective isomerization of terminal alkenes employing a previously described bifunctional Ir-based PC(sp3)complex (4) possessing a hemilabile sidearm. The isomerization, catalyzed by 4, results in a one-step shift of the double bond in good to excellent selectivity, and good yield. Our mechanistic studies revealed that the reaction is driven by the stepwise migratory insertion of Ir?H species into the terminal double bond/β-H elimination events. However, the selectivity of the reaction is controlled by dissociation of the hemilabile sidearm, which acts as a selector, favoring less sterically hindered substrates such as terminal alkenes; importantly, it prevents recombination and further isomerization of the internal ones.

The development of efficient heterogeneous catalysts for alkyne hydrogenation with high activity and selectivity is highly desirable and yet remains a great challenge. Herein, a Pd single-Atom catalyst (Pds-GDY) is prepared using graphdiyne as support, and used in the semihydrogenation of alkynes. As a proof of concept, the Pds-GDY exhibits a high activity for the semihydrogenation of phenylacetylene under mild reaction conditions, with a TOF of 6290 h-1, and a selectivity of 99.3% at 100% conversion, both much higher than those of the counterparts comprising Pd nanoparticles (NPs), namely, PdNP1-GDY (with 2 nm Pd NPs) and PdNP2-GDY (with 12 nm Pd NPs). In addition, after the full conversion of phenylacetylene, Pds-GDY could still maintain a selectivity as high as 98.9% towards styrene, with almost no phenylethane produced even with a prolonged reaction time; in contrast, for PdNP1-GDY and PdNP2-GDY, within the same reaction time, the selectivity decreases dramatically to 66.6% and 8.5%, respectively. Infrared spectroscopy reveals that Pds-GDY features the weakest adsorption to styrene, which is responsible for its high performance. This work provides an effective strategy to rationally design Pd catalysts for semihydrogenation of alkynes to alkenes with desirable activity and selectivity. This journal is

A series of palladium complexes with C3-bridged bidentate bis(diphenylphosphino)propane ligands with substituents of varying steric bulk at the central carbon have been synthesized. The size of the gem-dialkyl substituents affects the C-C-C bond angles within the ligands and consequently the P-M-P ligand bite angles. A combination of solid-state X-ray diffraction (XRD) and density functional theory (DFT) studies has shown that an increase in substituent size results in a distortion of the 6-membered metal-ligand chair conformation toward a boat conformation, to avoid bond angle strain. The influence of the gem-dialkyl effect on the catalytic performance of the complexes in palladium-catalyzed hydroformylation of 1-octene has been investigated. While hydroformylation activity to nonanal decreases with increasing size of the gem-dialkyl substituents, a change in chemoselectivity toward nonanol via reductive hydroformylation is observed.

A series of iminophosphinite POCN pincer Ni(ii) complexes, (POCN)NiMe and (POCN)NiLn(BX4) (L = CH3CN, n = 0, 1; X = F, Ph, C6F5), have been developed and subjected to catalytic hydrosilylation of alkenes, aldehydes and ketones and hydroboration of carbonyl compounds. The stoichiometric reactivity of (POCN)NiMe and (POCN)Ni(BF4) with PhSiH3 and HBPin suggests that catalytic reactions proceed via the hydride intermediate (POCN)NiH. With regard to reactions with HBPin, efficient and mild hydroboration of a variety of carbonyl compounds, including highly chemoselective hydroboration of benzaldehyde in the presence of other common potent reductive functional groups, such as alkenes, alkynes, esters, amides, nitriles, nitro compounds and even ketones, and the first example of base metal catalyzed hydroboration of amides, including mild direct hydroborative reduction of primary and secondary amides to borylated amines were demonstrated for (POCN)NiMe.

Nickel- and alkali-earth-modified LTA based zeolites catalyze the dimerization of 1-butene in the absence of Br?nsted acid sites. The catalyst reaches over 95% selectivity to n-octenes and methylheptenes. The ratio of these two dimers is markedly influenced by the parallel isomerization of 1-butene to 2-butene, shifting the methylheptene/octene ratio from 0.7 to 1.4 as the conversion increases to 35%. At this conversion, the thermodynamic equilibrium of 90% cis- and trans-2-butenes is reached. Conversion of 2-butene results in methylheptene and dimethylhexene with rates that are 1 order of magnitude lower than those with 1-butene. The catalyst is deactivated rapidly by strongly adsorbed products in the presence of 2-butene. The presence of π-allyl-bound butene and Ni-alkyl intermediates was observed by IR spectroscopy, suggesting both to be reaction intermediates in isomerization and dimerization. Product distribution and apparent activation barriers suggest 1-butene dimerization to occur via a 1′-adsorption of the first butene molecule and a subsequent 1′- or 2′-insertion of the second butene to form octene and methylheptene, respectively. The reaction order of 2 for 1-butene and its high surface coverage suggest that the rate-determining step involves two weakly adsorbed butene molecules in addition to the more strongly held butene.
