The synthesis and characterization of chiral bis(indenyl)zirconium dichlorides containing β-pinenyl-derived ligand substituents is reported. Unbridged metallocene complexes having the ∥(1S, 2S, 5S)-6,6- dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]hept-2-yl]methyl)dimethylsilyl substituent in both 1- and 2-positions of the indenyl moiety were prepared and isolated in moderate to low yields by reaction of the corresponding indenyllithium salts with ZrCl 4 followed by work-up and crystallization procedures. The corresponding tetrahydroindenyl complexes were obtained in excellent yields by catalytic hydrogenation of the indenyl six-membered rings. In a complementary approach, a synthetic route to α-pinenyl-substituted indenyl ligand analogues was briefly evaluated, which however, suffered from low yields. Selected ss-pinenyl-substituted indenyl complexes were scanned as catalysts for the dehydropolymerization of phenylsilane upon activation with nBuLi, for polymerization of ethylene and propylene upon activation with methylalumlnoxane (MAO) as well as for enantioselective carboalumination of 1-octene with triethyland trimethylaluminum. The bis(indenyl) complexes catalyzed the carboalumination reaction, albeit only low yields (8-16%) and low enantioselectivities (ee = 0.5-10%) were obtained. The 2-substituted bis(indenyl)zirconocene/MAO catalyst system produced atactic low-molecular weight polypropylene with low polymerization activity whereas both 1-and 2-substituted complexes showed high activities in ethylene polymerization producing polyethylenes with high molecular weights (Mw > 440000).

The development of a C2-extension of primary alcohols with ethanol as the C2 source and catalysis by [Cp*IrCl2]2 (where Cp? = pentamethylcyclopentadiene) is described. This new extension system was used for a range of benzylic alcohol substrates and for aliphatic alcohols with ethanol as an alkyl reagent to generate the corresponding C2-extended linear alcohols. Mechanistic studies of the reaction by means of intermediates and deuterium labeling experiments suggest the reaction is based on hydrogen autotransfer.

The research addresses the reaction of terminal alkenes and propene with AlR3 (R = Me, Et) in the presence of chiral Zr complexes, rac-[Y(η5-C9H10)2]ZrCl2 (Y = C2H4, SiMe2) or (NMI)2ZrCl2 (NMI- η5–neomenthylindenyl), and methylaluminoxane. The effect of reaction conditions, catalyst and trialkylalane structure on the substrate conversion and the reaction chemo- and stereoselectivity has been studied. The reaction predominantly goes via the stage of alkene methyl(ethyl)zirconation with subsequent introduction of substrate molecules into the Zr-C bond. As a result, a diastereoselective one-pot method for the synthesis of functionally substituted linear terminal alkene dimers and propene oligomers was developed.

Carboalumination of 1-alkenes (1-hexene, 1-octene, 1-decene) with Et 3Al in the presence of catalytic amounts of TaCl5 results in a mixture of 2-(R-substituted)- and 3-(R-substituted)-n-butylaluminums (1:1 ratio) in total yields of 75-85%. The TaCl5-catalyzed reaction of bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene, endo-tricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]deca-3,8-diene, and (exo/endo)-5-methylbicyclo[2.1.1]hept-2-ene with Et3Al leads to the formation of diethyl[2-exo-(2′-norbornylethyl)]aluminums in high yields. DFT calculations confirm the thermodynamic preference of the final exo product. The multistep reaction mechanisms for the formation of the resultant organoaluminums through tantalacyclopentanes as key intermediates are also discussed.

The paper is devoted to a study of the reaction of terminal alkene cycloalumination by AlEt3 catalyzed with neomenthylindenyl zirconium complexes (p-S)(p-S)-bis[η5-[1-[(1S,2S,5R)-2-isopropyl-5- methylcycloh-exyl]indenyl]]zirconium dichloride (1) or (p-S)-(η5- cyclopentadienyl)[η5-[1-[(1S,2S,5R)-2-isopropyl-5- methylcyclohexyl]indenyl]]zirconium dichloride (2). It was shown that alkene and catalyst structures, as well as solvent, affect the overall yield and enantiomeric excess of the reaction product - 3-alkylsubstituted aluminacyclopentanes. The reaction of terminal alkenes with AlEt3, catalyzed by complex 1, in hydrocarbon solvents gives predominantly S-enantiomers of cyclic organoaluminum compounds with enantiomeric excess up to 37%. Complex 2 shows smaller stereoinduction effect and provides R-enantiomers of aluminacyclopentanes with 6-26%ee. The effectiveness of selenium-containing derivatizing reagent (R)-2-phenylselenopropanoic acid for the enantiomeric excess estimation in β-alkyl-1,4-butanediols obtained from cyclic organoaluminum compounds was shown.

A series of pyrrole butyric acid derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for inhibitory activity on human and rat steroid 5α-reductase in vitro and ex vivo. 3-Benzoyl-4-alkylpyrrole-1-butyric acids and 1-methyl- 2-alkyl-3-benzoylpyrrole-5-butyric acid derivatives were effective inhibitors. Structure activity relationships were evaluated among the 37 compounds synthesized. Compound 37 (HQL-1069) shows potent inhibitory activities against both rat and human 5α-reductase.

The alkylation of ethyl (S)- and (R)-4,5-epoxy-2-pentenoates (11) and (12), chiral terminal γ,δ-epoxy acrylates prepared from D-mannitol, by trialkylaluminum in the presence of water occurs rcgioselectively at the γ position, i.e., at the internal position, to yield a sole product respectively with net inversion of configuration. The method provides useful chiral synthons for natural product synthesis.
