- Mechanism and origins of enantioselectivity for [BMIM]Cl ionic liquids and ZnCl2 co-catalyzed coupling reaction of CO2 with epoxides
-
Aiming at gaining more insight into the high catalytic activity of ZnCl2/[BMIM]Cl co-catalysts and elucidating the origination about the product enantioselectivity for the coupling reaction of CO2 with epoxides, a mechanistic study has been conducted by performing density functional theory calculations. The calculated results indicate a new stable complex [BMIM]ZnCl3 is probably formed via the dissociation of the in situ generated [BMIM]2ZnCl4 complex in the reaction system. This complex combined with another Cl- jointly assists the break of CO bond of propylene oxide (PO), which is the rate-determining step for the coupling reaction, and the corresponding barrier (28.0 kcal mol -1) is effectively lowered in comparison with the reaction promoted only by ZnCl2 (65.9 kcal mol-1) or [BMIM]Cl (33.1 kcal mol-1). [BMIM]+ takes part in the reaction by directly or indirectly stabilizing the intermediates and transition states via hydrogen bonding interaction with O of PO or Cl- in the reaction system. The observed product enantioselectivity probably originates from the formation of an interesting intermediate which provides nearly equal opportunities for inserted CO2 to attack the chiral carbon atom of PO on both sides and hence facilitates the formation of both R-product and S-product.

- A chiral mixed metal-organic framework based on a Ni(saldpen) metalloligand: Synthesis, characterization and catalytic performances
-
A three-dimensional (3D) chiral mixed metal-organic framework [Cd 4Cl(Ni-L)3(Ni-HL)(H2O)6(DMF)] ·4DMF (CMOF 1) based on a new enantiopure dicarboxyl-functionalized Ni(saldpen) metalloligand Ni-H2L and a novel tetranuclear cadmium cluster [Cd4Cl(CO2)7(CO2H)] has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, IR and UV-vis spectra, thermogravimetric analysis, nitrogen and carbon dioxide adsorption, powder and single-crystal X-ray diffractions. Each tetranuclear-cadmium cluster in 1 is linked by eight Ni-L ligands, and each Ni-L ligand is linked by two tetranuclear-cadmium clusters to generate a 3D framework with 1D open channels (~1.1 × 0.9 nm2) along the b-axis. Based on its good stability, permanent porosity, Lewis acid sites and moderate uptake for CO 2, 1 can be used as a self-supported heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of optically active propylene carbonate by asymmetric cycloaddition of CO2 with racemic propylene oxide under relatively mild conditions.

- Cooperative NHC-based Catalytic System Immobilised onto Carbon Materials for the Cycloaddition of CO2 to Epoxides
-
New pyrene-tagged imidazolium salts and their corresponding carboxylates were synthesised and the latter tested as organocatalysts in the cycloaddition of CO2 with epoxides. The best performing organocatalyst was then non-covalently immobilised onto carbon materials (carbon nanotubes (CNTs), reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and carbon beads (CBs)) via π-π stacking interactions and their activity and recoverability in the cycloaddition reaction were studied. The heterogenised catalyst onto reduced graphene oxide (4 a@rGO) was recycled several times although a loss of activity was observed. This catalyst was also used for the transformation of a series of epoxides under mild conditions.

- Highly regio- And stereoselective synthesis of cyclic carbonates from biomass-derived polyols: Via organocatalytic cascade reaction
-
The cascade reaction of CO2, vicinal diols, and propargylic alcohol, was firstly achieved by dual Lewis base (LB) organocatalytic systems involving LB-CO2 adducts and commercially available organic amines. This methodology could overcome the chemical inertness of CO2, providing an alternative route to various functionalized five-membered cyclic carbonates in moderate to high yields under mild reaction conditions (25 °C, 1.0 atm of CO2). More importantly, this method could also be applied for facile and efficient synthesis of chiral polycyclic carbonates from biomass-derived polyols with complete configuration retention of chiral centers. This study provides an environment-friendly, scalable and cost effective protocol to construct value-added cyclic carbonates with multi-functional groups and chiral centers.

- Continuous-Flow Synthesis of (R)-Propylene Carbonate: An Important Intermediate in the Synthesis of Tenofovir
-
(R)-Propylene carbonate is an important intermediate in the synthesis of tenofovir pro-drugs such as tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) and tenofovir diisoproyl fumarate (TDF). Independent of the pro-drug type, tenofovir presents a chiral secondary hydroxy derivative, which can be obtained directly from (R)-propylene carbonate. Herein, we report our chemo-enzymatic continuous-flow strategy towards (R)-propylene carbonate starting from a very cheap and renewable raw material, glycerol. We were able to synthesize (R)-propylene carbonate in seven continuous-flow steps, starting from glycerol, in good-to-excellent yields (66–93 %) and excellent selectivity (E > 200).

- Chiral basket-handle porphyrin-Co complexes for the catalyzed asymmetric cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides
-
The catalytic synthesis of cyclic carbonates via the cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides is a standard methodology for CO2 fixation. For this purpose, chiral basket-handle porphyrin-Co complexes were devised, prepared, and fully characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and specific rotation. The proposed metalloporphyrin catalysts were synthesized with either 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol or L-phenylalanine, which have different chirality, and then applied to the coupling of propylene oxide and CO2 for generating chiral cyclic carbonates with good enantioselectivity under extremely mild conditions in the presence of tetrabutyl ammonium chloride as a co-catalyst. The good enantioselectivity in the cycloaddition reaction is attributed to a synergistic interplay between the chiral porphyrin catalysts and the substrate. The mechanism and enantioselectivity of the asymmetric cycloaddition reaction is discussed.

- Chiral oligomers of spiro-salencobalt(III)X for catalytic asymmetric cycloaddition of epoxides with CO2
-
Several new chiral oligomers of spiro-salenCo(III)X (spiro = 1.1′-spirobiindane-7.7′-diol) complexes have been designed, synthesized, and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), infrared (IR), and elemental analyses, in which, the chiral spiro moieties are first introduced into a scaffold of chiral salenCo catalysts. They were used to catalyze the asymmetric cycloaddition of epoxides with carbon dioxide. Under very mild reaction conditions, a kinetic resolution of racemic epoxides with CO2 was smoothly initiated by these chiral oligomer catalysts with good enantioselectivities, which can be attributed to the match effect between chiral backbones of salen and spiro. High stability and easy recyclability are their major advantages.

-
Two Lewis acid-base bifunctional monometallic aluminum-salen complexes were prepared based on a new type of salen ligand with two N-methylhomopiperazine moieties at the 3,3′-position. The Al(salen) complexes proved to be efficient and recyclable homogeneous catalysts towards the organic solvent-free synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and CO2 in the absence of a co-catalyst, in which >90% yield of cyclic carbonate could be obtained under relatively mild conditions. The catalysts can be easily recovered and reused five times without significant loss of activity and selectivity. Furthermore, the Lewis acid-base cooperative activation mechanism by the bifunctional Al(salen) complexes was proposed according to experimental data.

- CO2 Adducts of Phosphorus Ylides: Highly Active Organocatalysts for Carbon Dioxide Transformation
-
A series of phosphorus ylide (P-ylide) CO2 adducts were synthesized and first used as organocatalysts for CO2 transformation. Detailed studies on the cycloaddition reaction of CO2 with terminal epoxides show that P-ylide CO2 adducts are efficient metal-free and halogen-free organocatalysts to mediate this reaction under ambient conditions (25 °C, 1 atm of CO2). More importantly, the reactions proceeded with a broad scope, high efficiency, and good functional group tolerance and the corresponding cyclic carbonate products were obtained in good to excellent yields (46-99%). Meanwhile, the kinetic study by in situ FTIR methods suggested an intermolecular cooperation effect for effectively accelerating the ring opening of terminal epoxides. Furthermore, from an investigation of the catalytic diversity of P-ylide CO2 adducts, CO2 also could be converted to functionalized cyclic α-alkylidene carbonates, oxazolidinone, and N-methylated and N-formylated amines by organocatalytic reactions.

- Bifunctional porphyrin catalysts for the synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and CO2: Structural optimization and mechanistic study
-
We prepared bifunctional MgII porphyrin catalysts 1 for the solvent-free synthesis of cyclic carbonates from epoxides and CO2. The activities of 1d, 1h, and 1i, which have Br-, Cl-, and I- counteranions, respectively, increased in the order 1i II porphyrin 1o with eight tetraalkylammonium bromide groups, which showed even higher catalytic activity (turnover number, 138,000; turnover frequency, 19,000 h-1). The catalytic mechanism was studied by using 1d. The yields were nearly constant at initial CO2 pressures in the 1-6 MPa range, suggesting that CO2 was not involved in the rate-determining step in this pressure range. No reaction proceeded in supercritical CO2, probably because the epoxide (into which the catalyst dissolved) dissolved in and was diluted by the supercritical CO2. Experiments with 18O-labeled CO2 and D-labeled epoxide suggested that the catalytic cycle involved initial nucleophilic attack of Br- on the less hindered side of the epoxide to generate an oxyanion, which underwent CO2 insertion to afford a CO2 adduct; subsequent intramolecular ring closure formed the cyclic carbonate and regenerated the catalyst. Density functional theory calculations gave results consistent with the experimental results, revealing that the quaternary ammonium cation underwent conformational changes that stabilized various anionic species generated during the catalytic cycle. The high activity of 1d and 1o was due to the cooperative action of the MgII and Br- and a conformational change (induced-fit) of the quaternary ammonium cation.

- Bifunctional aluminum catalyst for CO2 fixation: Regioselective ring opening of three-membered heterocyclic compounds
-
Regioselective ring opening of three-membered heterocyclic compounds (epoxides or N-substituted aziridines) at various temperatures was observed in coupling reactions with CO2 by the use of an aluminum - salen catalyst in conjunction with intramolecular quaternary ammonium salts as cocatalysts, affording the corresponding five-membered cyclic products with complete configuration retention at the methine carbon. Notably, this bifunctional aluminum-based catalyst exhibited nearly 100% regioselectivity for the ring opening at the methylene C-O bond for various terminal epoxides. This was true for those bearing an electron-withdrawing group, such as styrene oxide or epichlorohydrin, thereby affording the synthesis of various enantiopure cyclic carbonates that have previously been obtained only rarely by other methods. An intramolecular cooperative catalysis is suggested to contribute to the high activity and excellent stereochemistry control observed. Surprisingly, the highly selective ring opening at the methine carbon of N-substituted aziridines was found in the coupling with CO2, predominantly giving 5-substituted oxazolininones with retention of configuration as a result of double inversion at the methine carbon.

In situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) was used to investigate the reversible CO2 capture-release ability of MCM-41-NHC. MCM-41-IPr-CO2 adduct proved to be an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides or aziridines with excellent regioselectivity under mild conditions. Moreover, the catalyst could be recovered easily through a simple filtration process and reused multiple times without obvious loss in activity, owing to CO2 as protective group for effectively stabilizing the NHC anchored on MCM-41.

- CO2 adducts of N-heterocyclic carbenes: Thermal stability and catalytic activity toward the coupling of CO2 with epoxides
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Thermal stability of CO2 adducts of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) was studied by means of in situ FTIR method with monitoring of the ν(CO2) region of the infrared spectra under various conditions. 1,3-Bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolinium-2-carboxylate (SIPr-CO2) shows higher thermal stability compared with 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolium-2-carboxylate (IPr-CO2). The presence of free CO2 can significantly inhibit the decomposition of NHC-CO2 adducts, while the addition of an epoxide such as propylene oxide has a negative effect on stabilizing these adducts. As zwitterionic compounds, NHC-CO2 adducts were also proved to be effective organic catalysts for the coupling reaction of CO2 and epoxides to afford cyclic carbonates, for which a possible mechanism was proposed. Among these NHC-CO2 adducts, the relatively unstable IPr-CO2 exhibits the highest catalytic activity. The presence of an electrophile such as SalenAlEt could greatly improve the catalytic activity of IPr-CO2 due to intermolecular cooperative catalysis of the binary components.

- Process for producing cyclic carbonic esters
-
Reacting a diol (1) with a carbonic ester (2) to produce a cyclic carbonic ester (3) using a salt of a weak acid with an alkaline metal or alkaline earth metal as a catalyst. The diol (1) contains diols having an asymmetric carbon atom. The reaction mixture is neutralized and distilled to obtain a cyclic carbonic ester. Cyclic carbonic esters are produced using an easily accessible and easy to handle reactant, with good yield and under mild and moderate conditions.

- Practical synthesis of the anti-HIV drug, PMPA
-
The anti-HIV nucleotide analogue PMPA can be prepared on a kilogram-scale by a three step sequence: i) condensation of adenine with (R)-propylene carbonate, ii) alkylation of the resulting (R)-9- (2-hydroxypropyl)adenine with diethyl p- toluenesulfonyloxymethanephosphonate using lithium tert-butoxide and iii) cleavage of the phosphonate ester functionalities with bromotrimethylsilane.
