- Iridium-Catalyzed Domino Hydroformylation/Hydrogenation of Olefins to Alcohols: Synergy of Two Ligands
-
A novel one-pot iridium-catalyzed domino hydroxymethylation of olefins, which relies on using two different ligands at the same time, is reported. DFT computation reveals different activities for the individual hydroformylation and hydrogenation steps in the presence of mono- and bidentate ligands. Whereas bidentate ligands have higher hydrogenation activity, monodentate ligands show higher hydroformylation activity. Accordingly, a catalyst system is introduced that uses dual ligands in the whole domino process. Control experiments show that the overall selectivity is kinetically controlled. Both computation and experiment explain the function of the two optimized ligands during the domino process.

- PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF 1,3-CYCLOHEXANEDIMETHANOL FROM ISOPHTHALIC ACID
-
Disclosed is a process for the preparation of 1,3-cyclohexanedimethanol from isophthalic acid. Isophthalic acid is esterified with (3-methylcyclohexyl)methanol and the isophthalate ester hydrogenated to 1,3-cyclohexanedimethanol in a 2-stage process. The (3-methylcyclohexyl)methanol that is formed during the hydrogenation step is recycled to the esterification reaction. Also disclosed is a method for purifying and recovering the 1,3-cyclohexanedimethanol product.

- Alkane Functionalization on a Preparative Scale by Mercury-Photosensitized Cross-Dehydrodimerization
-
Alkanes can be functionalized with high conversions and in high chemical and quantum yields on a multigram scale by mercury-photosensitized reaction between an alkane and alcohols, ethers, or silanes to give homodimers and cross-dehydrodimers.The separation of the product mixtures is often particulary easy because of a great difference in polarity of the homodimers and cross-dimers.It is also possible to bias the product composition when the ratio of the components in the vapor phase is adjusted by altering the liquid composition.This is useful either to maximize chemical yield or to ease separation by favoring the formation of the most easily separated pair of compounds.The mechanistic basis of the reaction is discussed and a number of specific types of syntheses, for example of 2,2-disubstituted carbinols, are described in detail.The selectivity of cross-dimerization is shown to exceed that for homodimerization and reasons are discussed.Relative reactivities of different compounds and classes of compound are MeOHp-dioxanecyclohexane1,3,5-trioxacyclohexaneethanolisobutaneTHFEt3SiH.The observed selectivities generally parallel those for homodimerization, reported in the preceding paper, but certain differences are noted, and reasons for the differences are proposed.The bond-dissociation energy of Et3SiH is estimated from the reactivity data to be 90 kcal/mol.Eleven new carbinols are synthesized.
