- Selective, nickel-catalyzed hydrogenolysis of aryl ethers
-
Selective hydrogenolysis of the aromatic carbon-oxygen (C-O) bonds in aryl ethers is an unsolved synthetic problem important for the generation of fuels and chemical feedstocks from biomass and for the liquefaction of coal. Currently, the hydrogenolysis of aromatic C-O bonds requires heterogeneous catalysts that operate at high temperature and pressure and lead to a mixture of products from competing hydrogenolysis of aliphatic C-O bonds and hydrogenation of the arene. Here, we report hydrogenolyses of aromatic C-O bonds in alkyl aryl and diaryl ethers that form exclusively arenes and alcohols. This process is catalyzed by a soluble nickel carbene complex under just 1 bar of hydrogen at temperatures of 80 to 120°C; the relative reactivity of ether substrates scale as Ar-OAr?Ar-OMe>ArCH2-OMe (Ar, Aryl; Me, Methyl). Hydrogenolysis of lignin model compounds highlights the potential of this approach for the conversion of refractory aryl ether biopolymers to hydrocarbons.

- Quantum Yields of the Initiation Step and Chain Propagation Turnovers in SRN1 Reactions: Photostimulated Reaction of 1-Iodo-2-methyl-2-phenyl Propane with Carbanions in DMSO
-
Neophyl radicals were generated by photoinduced electron transfer (PET) from a suitable donor to the neophyl iodide (1, 1-iodo-2-methyl-2-phenylpropane). The PET reaction of 1 with the enolate anion of cyclohexenone (2) afforded mainly the reduction products tert-butylbenzene (5) and the rearranged isobutylbenzene (6), arising from hydrogen abstraction of the neophyl radical (15) and the rearranged radical 16 intermediates, respectively. The photostimulated reaction of 1 with 2 in the presence of di-tert-butylnitroxide, as a radical trap, afforded adduct 10 in 57% yield. The photoinduced reaction of the enolate anion of acetophenone (3) with 1 gave the substitution products 11 (50%) and 12 (16%), which arise from the coupling of 3 with radicals 15 and 16, respectively. The rate constant obtained for the addition of anion 3 to radical 15 was 1.2 × 105 M-1 s-1, by the use of the rearrangement of this radical as a clock reaction. The anion of nitromethane (4) was almost unreactive at the initiation step, but in the presence of 2 under irradiation, it gave high yields (67%) of the substitution product 13 and only 2% of the rearranged product 14. When the ratio of 4 to 1 was diminished, it was possible to observe both substitution products 13 and 14 in 16% and 6.4% yields, respectively. These last results allowed us to estimate the coupling rate constant of neophyl radicals 15 with anion 4 to be at least of the order of 106 M-1 s-1. Although the overall quantum yield determined (λ = 350 nm) for the studied reactions is below 1, the chain lengths (Φpropagation) for the reaction of 1 with anions 3 and 4 are 127 and 2, respectively.

The high catalytic performance is attributable to the highly dispersed and non-electron-rich Ni(0) nanospecies, which possibly suppress a side reaction producing esters and adsorbed CO-derived inhibition of the catalytic turnover, according to detailed catalyst characterization and kinetic evaluation.

- Air-Stable Iron-Based Precatalysts for Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling Reactions between Alkyl Halides and Aryl Boronic Esters
-
The development of an air-stable iron(III)-based precatalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of alkyl halides and unactivated aryl boronic esters is reported. Despite benefits to cost and toxicity, the proclivity of iron(II)-based complexes to undergo deactivationviaoxidation or hydrolysis is a limiting factor for their widespread use in cross-coupling reactions compared to palladium-based or nickel-based complexes. The new octahedral iron(III) complex demonstrates long-term stability on the benchtop as assessed by a combination of1H NMR spectroscopy, M?ssbauer spectroscopy, and its sustained catalytic activity after exposure to air. The improved stability of the iron-based catalyst facilitates an improved protocol in which Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions of valuable substrates can be assembled without the use of a glovebox and access a diverse scope of products similar to reactions assembled in the glovebox with iron(II)-based catalysts.

A cyclometalated NHC-coordinated hydrido tantalum alkoxide was found to selectively react with CO2 to afford the genuine tantalum formate (NHC)(HCOO)Ta(ORF)3 with ORF = OC(CF3)2CH3. In the solid state, the presence of a κ2-O,O-formate moiety was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and ATR-IR spectroscopy, while NMR experiments and DFT modeling studies suggest that the κ1-O-coordination mode is preferred in solution. Despite the accessibility of the latter κ1-O-formate in solution, no over-reduction to a dinuclear methylene diolate was observed. Upon treatment with MeOTf, the κ1-O-formate was methylated selectively, which led to the formation of a tantalum triflate complex along with methyl formate. This is a rare example in which a value-added oxygen-containing organic product (here HCOOMe) is released from an oxophilic early transition metal (here TaV).

- Discovery and characterization of an acridine radical photoreductant
-
Photoinduced electron transfer (PET) is a phenomenon whereby the absorption of light by a chemical species provides an energetic driving force for an electron-transfer reaction1–4. This mechanism is relevant in many areas of chemistry, including the study of natural and artificial photosynthesis, photovoltaics and photosensitive materials. In recent years, research in the area of photoredox catalysis has enabled the use of PET for the catalytic generation of both neutral and charged organic free-radical species. These technologies have enabled previously inaccessible chemical transformations and have been widely used in both academic and industrial settings. Such reactions are often catalysed by visible-light-absorbing organic molecules or transition-metal complexes of ruthenium, iridium, chromium or copper5,6. Although various closed-shell organic molecules have been shown to behave as competent electron-transfer catalysts in photoredox reactions, there are only limited reports of PET reactions involving neutral organic radicals as excited-state donors or acceptors. This is unsurprising because the lifetimes of doublet excited states of neutral organic radicals are typically several orders of magnitude shorter than the singlet lifetimes of known transition-metal photoredox catalysts7–11. Here we document the discovery, characterization and reactivity of a neutral acridine radical with a maximum excited-state oxidation potential of ?3.36 volts versus a saturated calomel electrode, which is similarly reducing to elemental lithium, making this radical one of the most potent chemical reductants reported12. Spectroscopic, computational and chemical studies indicate that the formation of a twisted intramolecular charge-transfer species enables the population of higher-energy doublet excited states, leading to the observed potent photoreducing behaviour. We demonstrate that this catalytically generated PET catalyst facilitates several chemical reactions that typically require alkali metal reductants and can be used in other organic transformations that require dissolving metal reductants.

Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reactions between a variety of alkyl halides and unactivated aryl boronic esters using a rationally designed iron-based catalyst supported by β-diketiminate ligands are described. High catalyst activity resulted in a broad substrate scope that included tertiary alkyl halides and heteroaromatic boronic esters. Mechanistic experiments revealed that the iron-based catalyst benefited from the propensity for β-diketiminate ligands to support low-coordinate and highly reducing iron amide intermediates, which are very efficient for effecting the transmetalation step required for the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling reaction.

We herein report a simple and clean photo-induced metal-free reduction of C-X bond under an atmosphere of air at room temperature. Isopropanol is used as both the reducing reagent and solvent. Various functional groups (acids, esters, alcohols, anilines, phenols, indoles, pyridines, cyano and trifluoromethyl groups) and other heterocyclic compounds are tolerated. Different organic halides (including C-I, C-Br and C-Cl bonds) can be dehalogenated with moderate to excellent yields. Polyhalides are also reduced chemoselectively and efficiently. DFT calculation suggests a six-membered ring transition state via C-X H-O hydrogen bonding to decrease the activation energy.

- Sodium Butylated Hydroxytoluene (NaBHT) as a New and Efficient Hydride Source for Pd-Catalysed Reduction Reactions
-
NaBHT (sodium butylated hydroxytoluene), a hindered and soluble base for the efficient arylation of various base-sensitive amines and (hetero)aryl halides has been found to have an unanticipated role as a hydride donor to reduce (hetero)aryl halides and allylic acetates. Mechanistic studies have uncovered that NaBHT, but not BHT, can deliver multiple hydrides through oxidation of the benzylic methyl group in NaBHT to the aldehyde. Further, performing the reduction with NaBHT-d20 has revealed that the redox-active benzylic position is not the only hydride donor site from NaBHT with one hydride in three coming, presumably, from the tert-butyl groups. The reduction works well under mild conditions and, incredibly, only consumes 20 percent of the NaBHT in the process; the remaining 80 percent can be readily recovered in pure form and reused. This, combined with the low cost of the material in ton-scale quantity, makes it practical and attractive for wider use in industry at scale.

-
A simple and efficient iron-catalyzed protodehalogenation of alkyl and aryl halides using phenylhydrosilane is disclosed. The reaction utilizes FeCl3 without the requirement of ligands. Unactivated alkyl and aryl halides were successfully reduced in good yields; sterically hindered tertiary halides were also reduced including the less reactive chlorides. The scalability of this methodology was demonstrated by a gram-scale synthesis with a catalyst loading as low as 0.5 mol%. Notably, disproportionation of phenylsilane leads to diphenylsilane that further reduces the halides. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed a non-radical pathway and the source of hydrogen is PhSiH3via deuterium labeling studies. Our methodology represents simplicity and provides a good alternative to typical tin, aluminum and boron hydride reagents.

- Surface Modification of a Supported Pt Catalyst Using Ionic Liquids for Selective Hydrodeoxygenation of Phenols into Arenes under Mild Conditions
-
The selective and efficient removal of oxygenated groups from lignin-derived phenols is a critical challenge to utilize lignin as a source for renewable aromatic chemicals. This report describes how surface modification of a zeolite-supported Pt catalyst using ionic liquids (ILs) remarkably increases selectivity for the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of phenols into arenes under mild reaction conditions using atmospheric pressure H2. Unmodified Pt/H-ZSM-5 converts phenols into aliphatic species as the major products along with a slight amount of arenes (10 % selectivity). In contrast, the catalyst modified with an IL, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium triflate, keeps up to 76 % selectivity for arenes even at a nearly complete conversion of phenols. The IL on the surface of Pt catalyst may offer the adsorption of phenols in an edge-to-face manner onto the surface, thus accelerating the HDO without the ring hydrogenation.

This method displays excellent ligand-controlled selectivity based on the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand employed. Utilizing a large NHC in non-polar solvents generates aryl silanes, while small NHCs in polar solvents promote reduction to arenes. Several classes of aryl silanes can be accessed from simple aniline building blocks, including those useful for cross-couplings, oxidations, and halogenations. The reaction conditions are mild, functional group tolerant, and provide efficient access to a variety of benzene derivatives.

- Aerobic C-C and C-O bond formation reactions mediated by high-valent nickel species
-
Nickel complexes have been widely employed as catalysts in C-C and C-heteroatom bond formation reactions. While Ni(0), Ni(i), and Ni(ii) intermediates are most relevant in these transformations, recently Ni(iii) and Ni(iv) species have also been proposed to play a role in catalysis. Reported herein is the synthesis, detailed characterization, and reactivity of a series of Ni(ii) and Ni(iii) metallacycle complexes stabilized by tetradentate pyridinophane ligands with various N-substituents. Interestingly, while the oxidation of the Ni(ii) complexes with various other oxidants led to exclusive C-C bond formation in very good yields, the use of O2 or H2O2 as oxidants led to formation of appreciable amounts of C-O bond formation products, especially for the Ni(ii) complex supported by an asymmetric pyridinophane ligand containing one tosyl N-substituent. Moreover, cryo-ESI-MS studies support the formation of several high-valent Ni species as key intermediates in this uncommon Ni-mediated oxygenase-type chemistry.

- UVA- and Visible-Light-Mediated Generation of Carbon Radicals from Organochlorides Using Nonmetal Photocatalyst
-
Carbon radicals are reactive species useful in various organic transformations. The C-X bond cleavage of organohalides by photoirradiation is a common method to generate carbon radicals in a controlled fashion. The use of organochloride substrates is still a formidable challenge due to the low reduction potential and the high dissociation energy of the C-Cl bond. In this report, we address these issues by using a nonmetal organic molecule with a relatively simple structure as a photocatalyst. In this catalyst (bis(dimethylamino)carbazole), the amino groups increase both the HOMO and LUMO energy levels, especially in the former. As a result, compared to the parent molecule, the new catalyst shows experimentally red-shifted absorption in the visible region and forms an excited state with better reducing capability. This photocatalyst was used in the reduction of unactivated aryl chlorides and alkyl chlorides in the presence of hydrogen atom donor at room temperature. The catalytic system can also be applied to the coupling of aryl chlorides with electron-rich arene and heteroarenes to affect the C-C bond-forming reactions. Our mechanistic study results support the assumption that carbon radicals are formed from the organochlorides via a single-electron-transfer step.

A Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H activation of boronic acid with aryl azide to obtain unsymmetric carbazoles, 1H-indoles, or indolines has been developed. The reaction constructs dual distinct C-N bonds via sp2/sp3 C-H activation and rhodium nitrene insertion. Synthetically, this approach represents an access to widely used carbazole derivatives. The practical application to CBP and unsymmetric TCTA derivatives has also been performed. Mechanistic experiments and DFT calculations demonstrate that a five-membered rhodacycle species is the key intermediate.

- Electron transfer-induced reduction of organic halides with amines
-
Reduction of a variety of organo halides was examined by using amines as a sacrificial hydrogen source. UV light-induced reduction of vinyl and aryl halides with triethylamine proceeded smoothly to give the corresponding reduced products. High temperature heating also caused the reduction and DABCO (1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane) also served as a good reducing reagent.

- Nickel-Catalyzed Reductive Cleavage of Carbon-Oxygen Bonds in Anisole Derivatives Using Diisopropylaminoborane
-
The catalytic removal of a methoxy group on an aromatic ring allows this group to be used as a traceless activating and directing group for aromatic functionalization reactions. Although several catalytic methods for the reductive cleavage of anisole derivatives have been reported, all are applicable only to π-extended aryl ethers, such as naphthyl and biphenyl ethers, while monocyclic aryl ethers cannot be reduced. Herein, we report a nickel-catalyzed reductive cleavage reaction of C-O bonds in aryl ethers using diisopropylaminoborane as the reducing agent. Unlike previously reported methods, this reducing reagent allows effective C-O bond reduction in a much wider range of aryl ether substrates, including monocyclic and heterocyclic ethers bearing various functional groups.

- Decarbonylation of Aromatic Aldehydes and Dehalogenation of Aryl Halides Using Maghemite-Supported Palladium Catalyst
-
A facile decarbonylation reaction of a variety of aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes using maghemite-supported palladium catalyst has been developed. The magnetic properties of catalyst facilitated an easy and efficient recovery of the catalyst from the reaction mixture using an external magnet. It was found that the catalyst could be reused up to four consecutive catalytic runs without a significant change in activity. In addition, the catalyst was also very effective in the dehalogenation of aryl halides. This is the first report on efficient utilization of directly immobilized Pd on maghemite in decarbonylation and dehalogenation reactions.

- Palladium-metalated porous organic polymers as recyclable catalysts for chemoselective decarbonylation of aldehydes
-
A novel palladium nanoparticle (NP)-metalated porous organic ligand (Pd NPs/POL-xantphos) has been prepared for the chemoselective decarbonylation of aldehydes. This heterogenous catalyst not only has excellent catalytic activity and chemoselectivity, but also holds high activity after 10 runs of reuse. The effective usage of this method is demonstrated through the synthesis of biofuels such as furfuryl alcohol (FFA) via the highly chemoselective decarbonylation of biomass-derived 5-hydroxy-methylfurfural (HMF) with a TON up to 1540. More importantly, 9-fluorenone could be obtained in one step through the decarbonylation of 2-bromobenzaldehyde by using this heterogeneous catalyst.

- METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF AROMATIC COMPOUND
-
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve such problems that the replacement of a nitro group with a hydrogen atom in production of an aromatic compound requires two-type reactions different from each other comprising reduction to an amino group and conversion of diazonium salt, and those procedures contain such problems that many processes are required and it takes time in production in view of convenience in aftertreatment of reaction and refining operation; and further, a careful handling is required regarding the diazonium salt because that salt is unstable depending on the type of compound and is an intermediate having sometimes the risk of explosion. SOLUTION: There is provided an aromatic compound production method characterized by including: reacting an aromatic nitro compound with a proton supply compound under the presence of a metal catalyst; and directly reducing the nitro group of the aromatic nitro compound to a hydrogen atom.

- Reductive Denitration of Nitroarenes
-
The Pd-catalyzed reductive denitration of nitroarenes has been achieved via a direct cleavage of the C-NO2 bonds. The catalytic conditions reported exhibit a broad substrate scope and good functional-group compatibility. Notably, the use of inexpensive propan-2-ol as a mild reductant suppresses the competitive formation of anilines, which are normally formed by other conventional reductions. Mechanistic studies have revealed that alcohols serve as efficient hydride donors in this reaction, possibly through β-hydride elimination from palladium alkoxides.

-
Ligand-controlled non-decarbonylative and decarbonylative conversions of acyl fluorides were developed using a Pd(OAc)2/Et3SiH combination. When tricyclohexylphosphine (PCy3) was used as the ligand, aldehydes were obtained as simple reductive conversion products. The use of 1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane (Cy2P(CH2)2PCy2, DCPE) as the ligand, however, favored the formation of hydrocarbons, which are decarbonylative reduction products.

- Formal Cross-Coupling of Diaryl Ethers with Ammonia by Dual C(Ar)-O Bond Cleavages
-
The conversion of renewable resources and inexpensive inorganic chemicals directly into higher value-added organic chemicals is becoming more and more important for our society's future sustainable development. Lignin, being the second most abundant organic carbon renewable resource on Earth, has been treated as waste in the pulp and paper industry. The 4-O-5 linkage diaryl ether bond is the strongest among the three types of ether linkages in lignins. Selective cleavage of this linkage can potentially generate smaller processable bio-based aromatic polymeric materials and compounds. Furthermore, there has been a long synthetic interest in coupling reactions with aryl ethers via C(Ar)-O bond cleavage, for example, for polyphenylene oxide (PPO) waste recycling. On the other hand, ammonia is a very inexpensive industrial inorganic chemical. Herein, we report a direct conversion of diaryl ethers and ammonia into aniline derivatives and arenes, providing a model for selective lignin 4-O-5 linkage modification and PPO recycling with inexpensive ammonia. Both symmetrical and unsymmetrical diaryl ethers were successfully cross-coupled with ammonia via dual C(Ar)-O bond cleavages, generating the corresponding cyclohexylanilines and arenes.

- Iron-Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling Reactions between Alkyl Halides and Unactivated Arylboronic Esters
-
An iron-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between alkyl halides and arylboronic esters was developed that does not involve activation of the boronic ester with alkyllithium reagents nor requires magnesium additives. A combination of experimental and theoretical investigations revealed that lithium amide bases coupled with iron complexes containing deprotonated cyanobis(oxazoline) ligands were best to obtain high yields (up to 89%) in catalytic cross-coupling reactions. Mechanistic investigations implicate carbon-centered radical intermediates and highlight the critical importance of avoiding conditions that lead to iron aggregates. The new iron-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura reaction was applied toward the shortest reported synthesis of the pharmaceutical Cinacalcet.

- Cycloneophylplatinum Chemistry: A New Route to Platinum(II) Complexes and the Mechanism and Selectivity of Protonolysis of Platinum-Carbon Bonds
-
A new route to cycloneophylplatinum(II) complexes is reported and the selectivity of protonolysis of the platinum-aryl and -alkyl bonds has been determined. Reaction of [PtCl2(SMe2)2] with neophylmagnesium chloride gives the binuclear cycloneophylplatinum(II) complex [Pt2(CH2CMe2C6H4)2(μ-SMe2)2], 1, which is shown to exist as a mixture of syn and anti isomers. Complex 1 reacts reversibly with SMe2 to give [Pt(CH2CMe2C6H4)(SMe2)2], 2, and irreversibly with bidentate ligands NN = 3,4,7,8-tetramethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (phen?) or 4,4′-di-t-butyl-2,2'bipyridine (bubipy) to give the corresponding complexes [Pt(CH2CMe2C6H4)(phen?)], 3, and [Pt(CH2CMe2C6H4)(bubipy)], 4, respectively. Complex 2 reacts with HCl initially by cleavage of the aryl-platinum bond to give mostly trans-[PtCl(CH2CMe2Ph)(SMe2)2], which then rearranges to an equilibrium mixture with trans-[PtCl(C6H4-2-t-Bu)(SMe2)2], while 3 and 4 react to give [PtCl(CH2CMe2Ph)(phen?)] and [PtCl(CH2CMe2Ph)(bubipy)], which do not undergo the isomerization reaction. The protonolysis reactions occur by way of a platinum(IV) hydride complex in each case, and the unusual reactivity of complex 2 is attributed to the ease of dissociation of the Me2S ligands.

- Chemoselective coupling of 1,1-bis[(pinacolato)boryl]alkanes for the transition-metal-frec borylation of aryl and vinyl halides: A combined experimental and theoretical investigation
-
A new transition-metal-frec borylation of aryl and vinyl halides using l,l-bis[(pinacolato)boryl]alkanes as boron sources is described. In this transformation one of the boron groups from 1,1-bis[(pinacolato)boryl]alkanes is selectively transferred to aryl and vinyl halides in the presence of sodium tert-butoxide as the only activator to form organoboronate esters. Under the developed borylation conditions, a broad range of organohalides are borylated with excellent chemo-selectivity and functional group compatibility, thus offering a rare example of a transition-metal-frec borylation protocol. Experimental and theoretical studies have becn performed to elucidate the reaction mechanism, revealing the unusual formation of Lewis acid/base adduct betwecn organohalides and α-borylcarbanion, generated in situ from the reaction of l,l-bis[(pinacolato)boryl]alkanes with an alkoxide base, to facilitate the borylation reactions.

- Catalytic Reduction of Alkyl and Aryl Bromides Using Propan-2-ol
-
Milstein's complex, (PNN)RuHCl(CO), catalyzes the efficient reduction of aryl and alkyl halides under relatively mild conditions by using propan-2-ol and a base. Sterically hindered tertiary and neopentyl substrates are reduced efficiently, as well as more functionalized aryl and alkyl bromides. The reduction process is proposed to occur by radical abstraction/hydrodehalogenation steps at ruthenium. Our research represents a safer and more sustainable alternative to typical silane, lithium aluminium hydride, and tin-based conditions for these reductions.

- Ruthenium-Catalyzed Dehydrogenative Decarbonylation of Primary Alcohols
-
Dehydrogenative decarbonylation of a primary alcohol involves the release of both dihydrogen and carbon monoxide to afford the by one carbon unit shorter product. The transformation has now been achieved with a ruthenium-catalyzed protocol by using the complex Ru(COD)Cl2 and the hindered monodentate ligand P(o-tolyl)3 in refluxing p-cymene. The reaction can be applied to both benzylic and long-chain linear aliphatic alcohols. The intermediate aldehyde can be observed during the transformation, which is therefore believed to proceed through two separate catalytic cycles involving first dehydrogenation of the alcohol and then decarbonylation of the resulting aldehyde.

- Deoxidizing reduction method for phenolic compound
-
The invention discloses a deoxidizing reduction method for a phenolic compound. The method comprises the following steps: reacting the phenolic compound with sulfuryl fluoride, thereby generating aryl fluorosulfonate; adding palladium acetate as a catalyst, 1,3-diphenylphosphine propane ligand and NH3/HCOOH as transferring hydrogen reducing agent; acquiring the corresponding arene after completing the reaction. On the basis of the molar weight of the raw material phenol, the dosage of the palladium acetate catalyst is 2mol%-5mol%; the dosage of the 1,3-diphenylphosphine propane ligand is 1.2 times of the dosage of the palladium acetate catalyst; the removal of monomolecular hydroxy requires 4 times of equivalent transferring hydrogen reducing agent. Most reagents used according to the invention are low-cost and are easily acquired. The dosage of the high-cost palladium acetate catalyst is less and the low-toxicity dimethyl sulfoxide is used as the solvent, so that the method is green and economical. Besides, the reaction time according to the invention is short and the whole process requires no heating and can be completed under room temperature, so that the method has the characteristics of high speed, energy-saving effect, and the like.

- Construction of Acid–Base Synergetic Sites on Mg-bearing BEA Zeolites Triggers the Unexpected Low-Temperature Alkylation of Phenol
-
Novel Mg-bearing BEA zeolites are synthesized to simultaneously endow significantly enhanced basicity without compromising acidity over the zeolite framework. Serving as efficient solid acid–base bifunctional catalysts, they achieve the liquid-phase selective methylation of phenol with methanol to produce o- and p-cresol (o/p=2) under mild conditions. The method is readily extendable to the alkylation of phenols with various alcohols. Stereo- and regioselectivity (>95 % for p-product) was attained on the alkylation of phenol with bulky tert-butyl alcohol, rendering the first acid–base cooperative shape-selective catalysis relying on the basicity of zeolites. A preliminary mechanistic analysis reveals that the remarkable activity and shape-selectivity come from the superior special acidic–basic synergetic catalytic sites on the uniform microporous channels of the BEA zeolite.

- Oxidative C-C bond formation reactivity of organometallic Ni(II), Ni(III), and Ni(IV) complexes
-
The use of the tridentate ligand 1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (Me3tacn) and the cyclic alkyl/aryl C-donor ligand-CH2CMe2-o-C6H4-(cycloneophyl) allows for the synthesis of isolable organometallic NiII, NiIII, and NiIV complexes. Surprisingly, the fivecoordinate NiIII complex is stable both in solution and the solid state, and exhibits limited C-C bond formation reactivity. Oxidation by one electron of this NiIII species generates a six-coordinate NiIV complex, with an acetonitrile molecule bound to Ni. Interestingly, illumination of the NiIV complex with blue LEDs results in rapid formation of the cyclic C-C product at room temperature. This reactivity has important implications for the recently developed dual Ni/photoredox catalytic systems proposed to involve high-valent organometallic Ni intermediates. Additional reactivity studies show the corresponding NiII species undergoes oxidative addition with alkyl halides, as well as rapid oxidation by O2, to generate detectable NiIII and/or NiIV intermediates and followed by C-C bond formation.
