- Oxide-Supported Titanium Catalysts: Structure-Activity Relationship in Heterogeneous Catalysis, with the Choice of Support as a Key Step
-
The reactions of tetrakis(neopentyl)titanium, TiNp4 (1), with the surface of three solid oxides, silica, silica-alumina, and alumina, all partially dehydroxylated at 500 °C under vacuum were achieved. The resulting supported organometallic species react with dihydrogen to form the corresponding supported hydrides. The preparation of supported titanium hydrides on alumina is described here in detail, and the species obtained were extensively characterized by FTIR, solid-state NMR and EPR spectroscopy, and mass-balance analysis. The supported titanium hydride species were tested in three important reactions for petrochemistry: epoxidation of 1-octene, depolymerization of Fischer-Tropsch waxes, and polymerization of ethylene. The activities of titanium hydrides supported on alumina were compared to those of their silica- and silica-alumina-supported analogues.

- Effect of Tetrahedral Ti in Titania-Silica Mixed Oxides on Epoxidation Activity and Lewis Acidity
-
The states of Ti in titania-silica mixed oxides have been studied by varying the Ti content.EXAFS analyses indicated that the amount of tetrahedral Ti species increased with a decrease in the Ti content reaching a maximum at 10 to 20 molpercent of Ti while octahedrally coordinated Ti predominated in the high Ti content region (Ti >/= 50 molpercent).Tetrahedral Ti species catalyse the epoxidation of oct-1-ene and cyclohexene using tert-butyl hydroperoxide as an oxidant.Lewis acid sites of the titania-silica also originated from the tetrahedral Ti species.Both epoxidation activity and Lewis acidity of the titania-silica were well explained by the coordinative unsaturation of the tetrahedral Ti site.

- Catalytic oxygen atom transfer promoted by tethered Mo(VI) dioxido complexes onto silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles
-
The preparation of three novel active and stable magnetic nanocatalysts for the selective liquid-phase oxidation of several olefins, has been reported. The heterogeneous systems are based on the coordination of cis-MoO2 moiety onto three different SCMNP@Si-(L1-L3) magnetically active supports, functionalized with silylated acylpyrazolonate ligands L1, L2 and L3. Nanocatalysts thoroughly characterized by ATR-IR spectroscopy, TGA and ICP-MS analyses, showed excellent catalytic performances in the oxidation of conjugated or unconjugated olefins either in organic or in aqueous solvents. The good magnetic properties of these catalytic systems allow their easy recyclability, from the reaction mixture, and reuse over five runs without significant decrease in the activity, either in organic or water solvent, demonstrating their versatility and robustness.

- Structure-Guided Regulation in the Enantioselectivity of an Epoxide Hydrolase to Produce Enantiomeric Monosubstituted Epoxides and Vicinal Diols via Kinetic Resolution
-
Structure-guided microtuning of an Aspergillus usamii epoxide hydrolase was executed. One mutant, A214C/A250I, displayed a 12.6-fold enhanced enantiomeric ratio (E = 202) toward rac-styrene oxide, achieving its nearly perfect kinetic resolution at 0.8 M in pure water or 1.6 M in n-hexanol/water. Several other beneficial mutants also displayed significantly improved E values, offering promising biocatalysts to access 19 structurally diverse chiral monosubstituted epoxides (97.1 - ≥ 99% ees) and vicinal diols (56.2-98.0% eep) with high yields.

- Are Highly Stable Covalent Organic Frameworks the Key to Universal Chiral Stationary Phases for Liquid and Gas Chromatographic Separations?
-
High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC) over chiral stationary phases (CSPs) represent the most popular and highly applicable technology in the field of chiral separation, but there are currently no CSPs that can be used for both liquid and gas chromatography simultaneously. We demonstrate here that two olefin-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs) featuring chiral crown ether groups can be general CSPs for extensive separation not only in GC but also in normal-phase and reversed-phase HPLC. Both COFs have the same 2D layered porous structure but channels of different sizes and display high stability under different chemical environments including water, organic solvents, acids, and bases. Chiral crown ethers are periodically aligned within the COF channels, allowing for enantioselective recognition of guest molecules through intermolecular interactions. The COF-packed HPLC and GC columns show excellent complementarity and each affords high resolution, selectivity, and durability for the separation of a wide range of racemic compounds, including amino acids, esters, lactones, amides, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, and drugs. The resolution performances are comparable to and the versatility is superior to those of the most widely used commercial chiral columns, showing promises for practical applications. This work thus advances COFs with high stability as potential universal CSPs for chromatography that are otherwise hard or impossible to produce.

- Asymmetric Epoxidation of Olefins Catalyzed by Substituted Aminobenzimidazole Manganese Complexes Derived from L-Proline
-
A family of manganese complexes [Mn(Rpeb)(OTf)2] (peb=1-(1-ethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-N-((1-((1-ethyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methyl) pyrrolidin-2-yl)methyl)-N-methylmethanamine)) derived from L-proline has been synthesized and characterized, where R refers to the group at the diamine backbone. X-ray crystallographic analyses indicate that all the manganese complexes [Mn(Rpeb)(OTf)2] exhibit cis-α topology. These types of complexes are shown to catalyze the asymmetric epoxidation of olefins employing H2O2 as a terminal oxidant with up to 96% ee. Obviously, the R group of the diamine backbone can influence the catalytic activity and enantioselectivity in the asymmetric epoxidation of olefins. In particular, Mn(i-Prpeb)(OTf)2 bearing an isopropyl arm, cannot catalyze the epoxidation reaction with H2O2 as the oxidant. However, when PhI(OAc)2 is used as the oxidant instead, all the manganese complexes including Mn(i-Prpeb)(OTf)2 can promote the epoxidation reactions efficiently. Taken together, these results indicate that isopropyl substitution on the Rpeb ligand inhibits the formation of active Mn(V)-oxo species in the H2O2/carboxylic acid system via an acid-assisted pathway.

The new cis-dioxomolybdenum (VI) complexes [MoO2(L2)(H2O)] (2) and [MoO2(L3)(H2O)] (3) containing the tridentate hydrazone-based ligands (H2L2 = N'-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-4-methylbenzohydrazide and H2L3 = N'-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-2-(hydroxyimino)propanehydrazide) have been synthesized and characterized via IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The catalytic activities of complexes 2 and 3, and the analogous known complex [MoO2(L1)(H2O)] (1) (H2L1 = N'-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-4-methylbenzohydrazide) have been evaluated for various oxidation reactions, viz. oxygen atom transfer from dimethyl sulfoxide to triphenylphosphine, sulfoxidation of methyl-p-tolylsulfide or epoxidation of different alkenes using tert-butyl hydroperoxide as terminal oxidant. The catalytic activities were found to be comparable for all three complexes, but complexes 1 and 3 showed better catalytic performances than complex 2, which contains a more sterically demanding ligand than the other two complexes.

- A stand-alone cobalt bis(dicarbollide) photoredox catalyst epoxidates alkenes in water at extremely low catalyst load
-
The cobalt bis(dicarbollide) complex, Na[3,3′-Co(η5-1,2-C2B9H11) (Na[1]), is an effective photoredox catalyst for the oxidation of alkenes to epoxides in water. Advantageous features of Na[1] include its lack of photoluminescence, high solubility and surfactant behavior in aqueous media, as well as the donor ability of the carborane ligand and high oxidizing power of the Co4+/3+ couple. These features differentiate it from the well-known and widely used photosensitizer tris (2,2′-bipyridine) ruthenium(ii) ([Ru(bpy)3]2+), which also participates in electron transfer through an outer sphere mechanism. A comparison of the catalytic performance of [Ru(bpy)3]2+ with Na[1] for alkene photo-oxidation is fully in favor of Na[1], as the former shows very low or null efficiency. With a catalyst loading of 0.1 mol% conversions between 65-97% have been obtained in short reaction times, 15 minutes, with moderate selectivity for the corresponding epoxide, due to the formation of side products as diols. But when the catalyst loading is reduced to 0.01 mol%, the selectivity for the corresponding epoxide increased considerably, being the only compound formed after 15 minutes of reaction (selectivity >99%). High TON values have been obtained (TON = 8500) for the epoxidation of aromatic and aliphatic alkenes in water. We have verified that Na[3,3′-Co(η5-1,2-C2B9H11)2] acts as a photocatalyst in both the epoxidation of alkenes and in their hydroxylation in aqueous medium with a higher rate for epoxidation than for hydroxylation. Preliminary photooxidation tests using methyl oleate as the substrate led to the selective epoxidation of the double bond. These results represent a promising starting point for the development of practical methods for the processing of unsaturated fatty acids, such as the valorisation of animal fat waste using this sustainable photoredox catalyst.

- Implication of oxidant activation on olefin epoxidation catalysed by Molybdenum catalysts with aroylhydrazonato ligands: Experimental and theoretical studies
-
Dinuclear and mononuclear molybdenum(VI) complexes with aroylhydrazonato ligands were studied as catalysts for cyclooctene and oct-1-ene epoxidation. Different isomers of the OH and NH2 functionalised aroylhydrazones led to four specific [MoO2L] units showing different catalytic activity. Three oxidants have been investigated: tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) in water or in decane, and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Catalytic processes with TBHP in decane provided outstanding results in the case of cyclooctene epoxidation: TOF2.5 min > 9000 with 0.25 mol % [Mo] loading. DFT calculations confirmed the relationship between the ligand nature and reactivity with TBHP and H2O2 as oxidant agents. In the case of TBHP as oxidant, calculations considered the solvent in which the oxidant is delivered to the olefin. A plausible mechanism with H2O2 has been proposed after considering various pathways.

- Investigation of physicochemical properties for novel perrhenate ionic liquid and its catalytic application towards epoxidation of olefins
-
Abstract: A novel ionic liquid (IL) based on catalytic functional metal rhenium, [Smim][ReO4] (1-heptyl-3-methyl-imidazolium perrhenate) was synthesized and characterized. Density and surface tension values of the IL were determined at different temperatures, and the volume and surface properties were calculated and discussed, respectively. Furthermore, the synthesized ionic liquid [Smim][ReO4] was used as a green solvent and catalyst for homogeneous catalyzed epoxidation of olefin with urea hydrogen peroxide (UHP) oxidant. The effect of factors of catalyst, oxidant, reaction time, and reaction temperature was discussed. The conversion of cyclohexene and cyclooctene is over 99% at optimum conditions. The IL [Smim][ReO4] as catalyst and solvent are characterized by high efficiency, long service life and recoverability, which is a better green homogeneous catalyst for epoxidation of olefins. Graphic Abstract: A novel IL based on catalytic functional metal rhenium, [Smim][ReO4] was synthesized and characterized. The volume and surface properties were calculated and discussed by the density and surface tension values at different temperatures, respectively. Furthermore, the as-synthesized [Smim][ReO4] was used as a green solvent and catalyst for homogeneous catalyzed epoxidation of olefin with urea hydrogen peroxide (UHP) oxidant. The results showed that the yield and selectivity of the reaction were up to 99%, and the catalytic efficiency of [Smim][ReO4] did not decrease significantly after five times recycling. Easy separation, recycle, nontoxicity and homogeneous catalysis are the main advantages of perrhenate ionic liquids over other heterogeneous catalysts containing organic solvents.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

- Proton Switch in the Secondary Coordination Sphere to Control Catalytic Events at the Metal Center: Biomimetic Oxo Transfer Chemistry of Nickel Amidate Complex
-
High-valent metal-oxo species are key intermediates for the oxygen atom transfer step in the catalytic cycles of many metalloenzymes. While the redox-active metal centers of such enzymes are typically supported by anionic amino acid side chains or porphyrin rings, peptide backbones might function as strong electron-donating ligands to stabilize high oxidation states. To test the feasibility of this idea in synthetic settings, we have prepared a nickel(II) complex of new amido multidentate ligand. The mononuclear nickel complex of this N5 ligand catalyzes epoxidation reactions of a wide range of olefins by using mCPBA as a terminal oxidant. Notably, a remarkably high catalytic efficiency and selectivity were observed for terminal olefin substrates. We found that protonation of the secondary coordination sphere serves as the entry point to the catalytic cycle, in which high-valent nickel species is subsequently formed to carry out oxo-transfer reactions. A conceptually parallel process might allow metalloenzymes to control the catalytic cycle in the primary coordination sphere by using proton switch in the secondary coordination sphere.

- Visible light-induced photodeoxygenation of polycyclic selenophene Se-oxides
-
Photodeoxygenation of dibenzothiophene S-oxide (DBTO) is believed to produce ground-state atomic oxygen [O(3P)] in solution. Compared with other reactive oxygen species (ROS), O(3P) is a unique oxidant as it is potent and selective. Derivatives of DBTO have been used as O(3P)-precursors to oxidize variety of molecules, including plasmid DNA, proteins, lipids, thiols, and other small organic molecules. Unfortunately, the photodeoxygenation of DBTO requires ultraviolet irradiation, which is not an ideal wavelength range for biological systems, and has a low quantum yield of approximately 0.003. In this work, benzo[b]naphtho[1,2-d]selenophene Se-oxide, benzo[b]naphtho[2,1-d]selenophene Se-oxide, dinaphtho[2,3-b:2’,3’-d]selenophene Se-oxide, and perylo[1,12-b,c,d]selenophene Se-oxide were synthesized, and their ability to utilize visible light for generating O(3P) was interrogated. Benzo[b]naphtho[1,2-d]selenophene Se-oxide produces O(3P) upon irradiation centered at 420 nm. Additionally, benzo[b]naphtho[1,2-d]selenophene Se-oxide, benzo[b]naphtho[2,1-d]selenophene Se-oxide, and dinaphtho[2,3-b:2’,3’-d]selenophene Se-oxide produce O(3P) when irradiated with UVA light and have quantum yields of photodeoxygenation ranging from 0.009 to 0.33. This work increases the utility of photodeoxygenation by extending the range of wavelengths that can be used to generate O(3P) in solution.

- Dendrimer crown-ether tethered multi-wall carbon nanotubes support methyltrioxorhenium in the selective oxidation of olefins to epoxides
-
Benzo-15-crown-5 ether supported on multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by tethered poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers efficiently coordinated methyltrioxorhenium in the selective oxidation of olefins to epoxides. Environmentally friendly hydrogen peroxide was used as a primary oxidant. Up to first and second generation dendrimer aggregates were prepared by applying a divergent PAMAM methodology. FT-IR, XRD and ICP-MS analyses confirmed the effective coordination of methyltrioxorhenium by the benzo-15-crown-5 ether moiety after immobilization on MWCNTs. The novel catalysts converted olefins to the corresponding epoxides in high yield without the use of Lewis base additives, or anhydrous hydrogen peroxide, the catalyst being stable for more than six oxidative runs. In the absence of the PAMAM structure, the synthesis of diols largely prevailed.

Superior catalytic performances (conv%, up to >99; ee%, up to >99) are achieved in the epoxidations of α-methylstyrene, styrene, indene and 1-octene. According to 6-cyano-2,2-dimethylchromene and 6-nitro-2,2-dimethylchromene, configuration of epoxides are reversed. And then the catalysts are selective in not only oxidative systems, but also substrates. Moreover, superior reusability (yield, 82%; ee, 86%) after recycling for nine times could also be obtained, which provide the potential application in industry.

Then, the aerobic enantioselective oxidation of olefins to the corresponding epoxide was investigated in the presence of magnetic chiral CoFe2O4@SiO2@Mn (III) complex at ambient conditions within 90?min. The results showed the corresponding products were synthesized with excellent yields and selectivity. In addition, the heterogeneous CoFe2O4@SiO2@ CPTMS@ chiral Mn (III) complex has benefits such as high selectivity and comparable catalytic reactivity with its homogeneous analog as well as mild reaction condition, facile recovery, and recycling of the heterogeneous catalyst.

- New molybdenum(II) complexes with α-diimine ligands: Synthesis, structure, and catalytic activity in olefin epoxidation
-
Three new complexes [Mo(η3-C3H5)Br(CO)2{iPrN=C(R)C5H4N}], where R = H (IMP = N-isopropyl 2-iminomethylpyridine), Me, and Ph, were synthesized and characterized, and were fluxional in solution. The most interesting feature was the presence, in the crystal structure of the IMP derivative, of the two main isomers (allyl and carbonyls exo), namely the equatorial isomer with the Br trans to the allyl and the equatorial with the Br trans to one carbonyl, the position trans to the allyl being occupied by the imine nitrogen atom. For the R = Me complex, the less common axial isomer was observed in the crystal. These complexes were immobilized in MCM-41 (MCM), following functionalization of the diimine ligands with Si(OEt)3, in order to study the catalytic activity in olefin epoxidation of similar complexes as homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts. FTIR,13C- and29Si-NMR, elemental analysis, and adsorption isotherms showed that the complexes were covalently bound to the MCM walls. The epoxidation activity was very good in both catalysts for the cis-cyclooctene and cis-hex-3-en-1-ol, but modest for the other substrates tested, and no relevant differences were found between the complexes and the Mo-containing materials as catalysts.

- Catalytic epoxidation using dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complexes with tridentate aminoalcohol phenol ligands

Reaction of the tridentate aminoalcohol phenol ligands 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-(((2 hydroxyethyl)(methyl)amino)methyl)phenol (H2L1) and 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-(((1-hydroxybutan-2-yl)amino)methyl)phenol (H2L2) with [MoO2(acac)2] in methanol solutions resulted in the formation of [MoO2(L1)(MeOH)] (1) and [MoO2(L2)(MeOH)] (3), respectively. In contrast, the analogous reactions in acetonitrile afforded the dinuclear complexes [Mo2O2(μ-O)2(L1)2] (2) and [Mo2O2(μ-O)2(L2)2] (4). The corresponding reactions with the potentially tetradentate ligand 3-((3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzyl)(methyl)amino)propane-1,2-diol (H3L3) led to the formation of the mononuclear complex [MoO2(L3)(MeOH)] (5) in methanol while in acetonitrile solution a trinuclear structure [Mo3O3(μ-O)3(L3)3] (6) was obtained. In both cases, the ligand moiety L3 coordinated in a tridentate fashion. The catalytic activities of complexes 1–6 in epoxidation of five different olefins, S1-5, with tert-butyl hydroperoxide and hydrogen peroxide were studied. The catalytic activities were found to be moderate to good for the reaction of substrate cis-cyclooctene S1, while all complexes were less active in the epoxidation of the more challenging substrates S2-5. The molecular structures of 1, 2, 4 and 6 were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.

- Catalytic performance of bulk and colloidal Co/Al layered double hydroxide with Au nanoparticles in aerobic olefin oxidation
-
A Co/Al layered double hydroxide material was synthesized in both bulk and exfoliated (colloidal) forms. Anion exchange with methionine allowed immobilization of Au nanoparticles previously prepared by a biomimetic method using an anti-oxidant tea aqueous extract to reduce the Au salt solution. The catalytic performance of bulk and exfoliated clays Au-hybrid materials was assessed in aerobic olefin epoxidation. Both catalysts were very active towards the epoxide products and with very interesting substrate conversion levels after 80 h reaction time. The Au-exfoliated material, where the nanosheets work as large ligands, yielded higher product stereoselectivity in the case of limonene epoxidation. This arises from a confined environment around the Au nanoparticles wrapped by the clay nanosheets modulating access to the catalytic active centres by reagents. Mechanistic assessment was also accomplished for styrene oxidation by DFT methods.

Structural analysis revealed that compound 1 was constructed by two identical subunits {Pr2(H2O)3(AsW9O33)3W2O4} bridged together by two pzdc ligands. In addition, compound 1 could act as an efficient catalyst for the epoxidation of olefins and oxidation of alcohols with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as the oxidant. In particular, the turnover frequency (TOF) in the oxidation of 1-phenylethanol reached up to 10170 h-1, which is higher than that of previously reported catalysts.

- Photodeoxygenation of phenanthro[4,5-bcd]thiophene S-oxide, triphenyleno[1,12-bcd]thiophene S-oxide and perylo[1,12-bcd]thiophene S-oxide
-
Sulfoxides, upon irradiation with ultraviolet (UV) light undergo α-cleavage, hydrogen abstraction, photodeoxygenation, bimolecular photoreduction, and stereo-mutation. The UV irradiation of dibenzothiophene S-oxide (DBTO) yields dibenzothiophene (DBT) as a major product along with ground-state atomic oxygen [O(3P)]. This is a common method for generating O(3P) in solution. The low quantum yield of photodeoxygenation and the requirement of UVA light are drawbacks of using this method. The sulfoxides benzo[b]naphtho-[1,2,d]thiophene S-oxide, benzo[b]naphtho [2,1,d]thiophene S-oxide, benzo[b] phenanthro[9,10-d]thiophene S-oxide, dinaphtho- [2,1-b:1’,2’-d]thiophene S-oxide, and dinaphtho[1,2-b:2’,1’-d]thiophene S-oxide have shown to deoxygenate up to three times faster than DBTO upon UVA irradiation; however, the photodeoxygenation of these sulfoxides does not appear to be limited to the production of O(3P). In this work, phenanthro[4,5-bcd]thiophene S-oxide, triphenyleno[1,12-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide, and perylo[1,12-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide were synthesized and their photodeoxygenation was studied. Phenanthro[4,5-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide, triphenyleno[1,12-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide, and perylo[1,12-bcd]thiophene-S-oxide deoxygenated upon UVA irradiation. However, the common intermediate experiments did not conclusively identify the photodeoxygenation mechanism of these sulfoxides.

- Highly Selective and Catalytic Oxygenations of C?H and C=C Bonds by a Mononuclear Nonheme High-Spin Iron(III)-Alkylperoxo Species
-
The reactivity of a mononuclear high-spin iron(III)-alkylperoxo intermediate [FeIII(t-BuLUrea)(OOCm)(OH2)]2+(2), generated from [FeII(t-BuLUrea)(H2O)(OTf)](OTf) (1) [t-BuLUrea=1,1′-(((pyridin-2-ylmethyl)azanediyl)bis(ethane-2,1-diyl))bis(3-(tert-butyl)urea), OTf=trifluoromethanesulfonate] with cumyl hydroperoxide (CmOOH), toward the C?H and C=C bonds of hydrocarbons is reported. 2 oxygenates the strong C?H bonds of aliphatic substrates with high chemo- and stereoselectivity in the presence of 2,6-lutidine. While 2 itself is a sluggish oxidant, 2,6-lutidine assists the heterolytic O?O bond cleavage of the metal-bound alkylperoxo, giving rise to a reactive metal-based oxidant. The roles of the urea groups on the supporting ligand, and of the base, in directing the selective and catalytic oxygenation of hydrocarbon substrates by 2 are discussed.

- Bioinspired Olefin cis-Dihydroxylation and Aliphatic C-H Bond Hydroxylation with Dioxygen Catalyzed by a Nonheme Iron Complex
-
A mononuclear iron(II)-α-hydroxy acid complex [(TpPh,Me)FeII(benzilate)] (TpPh,Me = hydrotris(3-phenyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl)borate) of a facial tridentate ligand has been isolated and characterized to explore its catalytic efficiency for aerial oxidation of organic substrates. In the reaction between the iron(II)-benzilate complex and O2, the metal-coordinated benzilate is stoichiometrically converted to benzophenone with concomitant reduction of dioxygen on the iron center. Based on the results from interception experiments and labeling studies, different iron-oxygen oxidants are proposed to generate in situ in the reaction pathway depending upon the absence or presence of an external additive (such as protic acid or Lewis acid). The five-coordinate iron(II) complex catalytically cis-dihydroxylates olefins and oxygenates the C-H bonds of aliphatic substrates using O2 as the terminal oxidant. The iron(II) complex exhibits better catalytic activity in the presence of a Lewis acid.

- Mechanistically Driven Development of an Iron Catalyst for Selective Syn-Dihydroxylation of Alkenes with Aqueous Hydrogen Peroxide
-
Product release is the rate-determining step in the arene syn-dihydroxylation reaction taking place at Rieske oxygenase enzymes and is regarded as a difficult problem to be resolved in the design of iron catalysts for olefin syn-dihydroxylation with potential utility in organic synthesis. Toward this end, in this work a novel catalyst bearing a sterically encumbered tetradentate ligand based in the tpa (tpa = tris(2-methylpyridyl)amine) scaffold, [FeII(CF3SO3)2(5-tips3tpa)], 1 has been designed. The steric demand of the ligand was envisioned as a key element to support a high catalytic activity by isolating the metal center, preventing bimolecular decomposition paths and facilitating product release. In synergistic combination with a Lewis acid that helps sequestering the product, 1 provides good to excellent yields of diol products (up to 97% isolated yield), in short reaction times under mild experimental conditions using a slight excess (1.5 equiv) of aqueous hydrogen peroxide, from the oxidation of a broad range of olefins. Predictable site selective syn-dihydroxylation of diolefins is shown. The encumbered nature of the ligand also provides a unique tool that has been used in combination with isotopic analysis to define the nature of the active species and the mechanism of activation of H2O2. Furthermore, 1 is shown to be a competent synthetic tool for preparing O-labeled diols using water as oxygen source.

- Synthesis of two new Mo(II) organometallic catalysts immobilized on POSS for application in olefin oxidation reactions
-
The purpose of this work was the preparation and characterization of two new catalysts POSS-ATZAc-[Mo(η3-C3H5)Br(CO)2] (POSS-Mo-I) and POSS-ATZAc-[Mo(CO)3Br2] (POSS-Mo-II). The new heterogeneous catalysts were characterized by several techniques and used as catalysts for the epoxidation of olefins, presenting high catalytic activity. To study and optimize the syntheses of the heterogeneous catalysts, immobilization experiments of the [Mo(η3-C3H5)Br(CO)2(NCMe)2] and [Mo(CO)3Br2(NCMe)2] organometallic complexes on the modified polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane were performed. The sorption properties of the modified silsesquioxane showed to be dependent of the contact time, concentration and temperature. Catalysts were tested in the epoxidation of six olefins and compared with homogeneous species [Mo(η3-C3H5)Br(CO)2(ATZAc)] (Mo-I) and [Mo(CO)3Br2(ATZAc)] (Mo-II). To the best of our knowledge, this paper is the first that has reported the preparation and characterization of two new heterogeneous catalysts, as well as the comparison with homogeneous species for catalytic epoxidation of olefins.

- Synthesis, characterization and catalytic application of a new organometallic oligomer based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane
-
Although homogeneous catalysts provide high performance and selectivity, the difficulty of separation and recycling of these catalysts has bothered the scientific community worldwide. Therefore, the demand for heterogeneous catalysts that possess the advantages of homogeneous ones, with ease of separation and recyclability remains a topic of major impact. The oligomeric catalyst synthesized in this work was characterized using elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared, 13C NMR, 29Si NMR and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopies, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis and compared to its homogeneous counterpart [W(CO)3Br2(ATC)] in the epoxidation of 1-octene, cyclooctene, (S)-limonene, cis-3-hexen-1-ol, trans-3-hexen-1-ol and styrene. The results showed that the percentage conversion for the homogeneous species [W(CO)3Br2(ATC)] was slightly higher than for the oligomeric catalyst (POSS-ATC-[W(CO)3Br2]). Furthermore, the selectivity for epoxide of the oligomeric catalyst was greater than that of the homogeneous catalyst by about 25% when (S)-limonene was used. Great conversions (yields) of products were obtained with a wide range of substrates and the catalyst was recycled many times without any substantial loss of its catalytic activity.

- Thiol Reactivity toward Atomic Oxygen Generated during the Photodeoxygenation of Dibenzothiophene S-Oxide
-
Aromatic heterocyclic oxides, such as dibenzothiophene S-oxide (DBTO), have been suggested to release ground state atomic oxygen [O(3P)] upon irradiation, and as such, they have been used to create a condensed phase reactivity profile for O(3P). However, thiols, which are highly reactive with O(3P) in the gas phase, were not previously investigated. An earlier study of O(3P) with proteins in solution indicated a preference for thiols. A further investigation of the apparent thiophilicity provided the subject for this study. DBTO was employed as a putative O(3P)-precursor. However, the effective rate of O(3P) formation was found to be dependent on reactant concentrations in certain cases. All reactants were found to increase the rate of deoxygenation to some extent, but in the presence of reactants containing an alcohol linked to a reactive functional group, deoxygenation occurred substantially more rapidly. The rate enhancement was quantified and attributed to the reaction of activated O atom within the solvent cage prior to escape into the bulk solution. Through competition experiments, the relative rate constants of O(3P) with thiols and other functional groups were found. A small preference for primary thiols was observed over other thiols, sulfides, and alkenes. A much larger preference was observed for thiols, sulfides, and alkenes over aromatic groups. In summary, DBTO was successfully used as an O(3P)-precursor, and the thiophilicity of O(3P) was confirmed and quantified.

- A novel chiral manganese-tetraamide macrocycle complex covalently attached to magnetite as recyclable catalyst for aerobic asymmetric epoxidation of olefins
-
A novel Mn complex containing N4-tetradentate tetraamide macrocyclic ligand (L) derived from chiral diethyl-2,3-benzylidene-L-tartrate and polyamidoamine dendrimer on Fe3O4@SiO2 surface was synthesized. The nanocomposite particles were investigated by SEM, XRD, VSM, EPR and FTIR. The nanocomposite showed high catalytic activity and selectivity for the epoxidation of linear terminal, cyclic and most of the aromatic olefins by O2 in the presence of isobutyraldehyde under mild conditions; epoxide selectivity 87–100%, enantiomeric excess 53–100%. The catalyst could be separated and recovered from the reaction system by applying an external magnetic field and reused for four cycles without the loss of activity after each cycle. Total TON of 16957 was obtained after four cycles.

- A heterogenized chiral imino indanol complex of manganese as an efficient catalyst for aerobic epoxidation of olefins
-
Herein, a new heterogenized chiral catalyst, GFC-[Mn(L)(OH)], was synthesized by grafting the complex [Mn(L)(OH)] on carbon-coated magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticle-decorated reduced graphene oxide sheets (GFC) through an amine linkage (L = (1R,2S)-1-(N-salicylideneamino)-2-indanol). The catalyst was characterized via FT-IR, UV/vis, XRD, SEM, and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) techniques. It exhibited excellent activity and selectivity in the epoxidation of olefins with oxygen in the presence of isobutyraldehyde under mild conditions (conversion 38-98%; selectivity 65-98%; and enantioselectivity 58-100%, except for alpha-methylstyrene). Furthermore, the synergistic effect of the reduced graphene oxide support was observed on the increasing activity, epoxide selectivity, and enantioselectivity. The catalyst can be recovered via magnetic separation from the reaction mixture and recycled five times without any significant loss in its activity. The advantage of this development is the use of both the synergic effect of reduced graphene oxide and the magnetite nanoparticles to obtain an easily recyclable heterogeneous green catalyst. In addition, high asymmetric induction of a rigid indanol-based unit of the ligand results in high enantioselectivity.

Two ethoxo-bridged FeIII and two azido-bridged NiII were observed in 1 and 2, respectively; corresponding antiferromagnetic interaction via the bridged ethoxo groups and strong ferromagnetic coupling via the bridged end-on azido ligands within the dimeric unit were observed. Complex 1 did not exhibit any catalytic activity, while 2 exhibited excellent catalytic activities for the epoxidation of aliphatic, aromatic, and terminal olefins.

New chiral Jacobsen's catalysts grafted onto alkoxyl-modified ZPS-PVPA are synthesized and applied in asymmetric epoxidations of unfunctionalized olefins. Specially, the supported catalysts indicate excellent catalytic activities (conv%, up to 96; sele%, up to 96; ee%, up to >99) in the absence of N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO) by virtue of the special configurations of the catalysts. The superior stability (recycling for ten times) and the comfortable dispositions in large-scale reactions (such as 200 times) grant the potential application in industry to the heterogeneous catalysts.

- Photocatalytic Asymmetric Epoxidation of Terminal Olefins Using Water as an Oxygen Source in the Presence of a Mononuclear Non-Heme Chiral Manganese Complex
-
Photocatalytic enantioselective epoxidation of terminal olefins using a mononuclear non-heme chiral manganese catalyst, [(R,R-BQCN)MnII]2+, and water as an oxygen source yields epoxides with relatively high enantioselectivities (e.g., up to 60% enantiomeric excess). A synthetic mononuclear non-heme chiral Mn(IV)-oxo complex, [(R,R-BQCN)MnIV(O)]2+, affords similar enantioselectivities in the epoxidation of terminal olefins under stoichiometric reaction conditions. Mechanistic details of each individual step of the photoinduced catalysis, including formation of the Mn(IV)-oxo intermediate, are discussed on the basis of combined results of laser flash photolysis and other spectroscopic methods.

- Titanium cis-1,2-Diaminocyclohexane Salalen Catalysts of Outstanding Activity and Enantioselectivity for the Asymmetric Epoxidation of Nonconjugated Terminal Olefins with Hydrogen Peroxide
-
We report a new and readily accessible class of titanium salalen complexes derived from cis-1,2-diaminocyclohexane (cis-DACH) and fluorinated salicylic aldehyde derivatives. With aqueous hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant, these complexes catalyze the epoxidation of terminal, nonconjugated olefins in high yields with high enantioselectivities. We furthermore discovered that the addition of certain acidic or basic co-catalysts significantly accelerated the epoxidation. For example, in the presence of 1 mol % Ti catalyst and 1 mol % pentafluorobenzoic acid, 1-octene epoxidation (95 % ee) was completed at room temperature within 8 h. The catalytic process was compatible with many functional groups (e.g., ethers, esters, halides, nitriles, and nitro groups), whereas free hydroxy groups appeared to slow down the reaction to some extent. Catalyst recycling was possible.

- Cis-Dihydroxylation of electron deficient olefins catalysed by an oxo-bridged diiron(III) complex with H2O2

Room temperature oxidation of olefins catalysed by a symmetrical (μ-oxo)(μ-hydroxo)diiron(III) complex (1) based on the amino pyridyl ligand bpmen (bpmen = N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-bis(2-pyridyl methyl)ethane-1,2-diamine) with hydrogen peroxide under the conditions of limiting substrate is described. Excellent substrate conversions have been achieved under ambient reaction conditions. The olefin oxidation efficacy of the 1/H2O2 system has been found to get improved in presence of acetic acid. The catalytic system has been shown to oxidise electron-deficient olefins to the corresponding cis-diols, while epoxidation is favoured in case of electron-rich olefins. The μ-oxo diiron(III) core of the catalyst 1 has been found be regenerated after the catalytic turnovers. Addition of a second batch of substrate and oxidant at the end of the olefin oxidation results in the formation of almost identical amounts of epoxides/diols. Moreover, the regenerated catalyst exhibits a significantly higher preference towards the oxidation of electron-deficient olefins.

An iron–oxygen intermediate species generated in situ in the reductive activation of dioxygen by an iron(II)–benzilate complex of a monoanionic facial N3ligand, promoted the halogenation of aliphatic C?H bonds in the presence of a protic acid and a halide anion. An electrophilic iron(IV)–oxo oxidant with a coordinated halide is proposed as the active oxidant. The halogenation reaction with dioxygen and the iron complex mimics the activity of non-heme iron halogenases.

- POSS-derived mesoporous ionic copolymer-polyoxometalate catalysts with a surfactant function for epoxidation reactions
-
A series of novel polyoxometalate (POM)-based stable polymeric hybrids were successfully synthesized using polyhedral oligomeric vinylsilsesquioxanes (POSS) and ionic liquids (IL) bearing hydrophobic alkyl chains as the building blocks, followed by ion exchange with Keggin-type phosphotungstic acid (PW). The obtained hybrids POSS-ILx-PW were demonstrated to be mesostructured and amphiphilic materials with good thermal stability. Catalytic tests for the H2O2-based epoxidation of cyclooctene have shown that these newly designed catalysts exhibit extraordinary catalytic activities, catalytic rates, and quite stable reusability. The unique amphiphilic property and the mesoporous structure are revealed to be responsible for the catalysts' excellent performance in epoxidation reactions with H2O2.
