Primary Alcohols via Nickel Pentacarboxycyclopentadienyl Diamide Catalyzed Hydrosilylation of Terminal Epoxides
Lambert, Tristan H.,Steiniger, Keri A.
, p. 8013 - 8017 (2021/10/25)
The efficient and regioselective hydrosilylation of epoxides co-catalyzed by a pentacarboxycyclopentadienyl (PCCP) diamide nickel complex and Lewis acid is reported. This method allows for the reductive opening of terminal, monosubstituted epoxides to form unbranched, primary alcohols. A range of substrates including both terminal and nonterminal epoxides are shown to work, and a mechanistic rationale is provided. This work represents the first use of a PCCP derivative as a ligand for transition-metal catalysis.

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.

Zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs) exhibit great structural tunability and outstanding chemical stability, rendering them promising candidates for a wide range of practical applications. In this work, we synthesized a series of isostructural PCN-224 analogues functionalized by ethyl, bromo, chloro, and fluoro groups on the porphyrin unit, which allowed us to explicitly study the effects of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents on catalytic performance in MOFs. Owing to the different electronic properties of ethyl, bromo, chloro, and fluoro substitutes, the molecular-level control over the chemical environment surrounding a catalytic center could be readily achieved in our MOFs. To investigate the effects of these substitutes on catalytic activity and selectivity, the oxidation of 3-methylpentane to corresponding alcohols and ketones was utilized as a model reaction. Within these five analogues of PCN-224, an extremely high turnover number of 7680 and turnover frequency of 10 240 h-1 was achieved by simply altering the substitutes on porphyrin rings. Moreover, a remarkable 99% selectivity of the tertiary alcohol over the five other possible by-products are realized. We demonstrate that this strategy can be used to efficiently screen a suitable peripheral environment around catalytic cores in MOFs for catalysis.
Steric effects and mechanism in the formation of hemi-acetals from aliphatic aldehydes

Some physical properties (pKa, log POW, boiling points) of hexanoic acid 1 (X = COOH) and its seven isomers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (X = COOH) are reported. Hexanal 1 (X = CHO) and its seven isomeric aldehydes 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (X = CHO) are shown to equilibrate, in methanol solution, with their hemi-acetals. Logarithms of equilibrium constants correlate with values of Es for the isomeric C5H11 substituents, and with logs of relative rates for saponification of the corresponding methyl esters with ρ = 0.52, reflecting the reduced steric demand of hydrogen compared to oxygen in the quaternization of ester and aldehydic carbonyl groups. Rates of equilibration have also been measured in buffered methanol. For hexanal, with a 2:1 Et3N:AcOH buffer, the buffer-independent contribution is dominated by the methoxide catalysed pathway. Rates in this medium have been determined for isomers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (X = CHO), and their logarithms do not correlate with logarithms of equilibrium constants for hemi-acetal formation or with substituent steric parameters derived from ester formation or saponification, indicating that the steric changes associated with full quaternization of the carbonyl group are not mirrored in the transition structures for hemi-acetal formation. It is suggested that transition states for hemi-acetal formation are relatively early so that steric interactions are effectively those between the nucleophile and ground state conformations of the aldehydes. A comparison of the entropies of hemi-acetal formation with entropies of activation has provided a basis for a suggested transition structure. Comparisons with acid chloride hydrolyses are made. Copyright 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Logarithms of equilibrium constants for formation hemi-acetals of hexanal and its seven isomeric aldehydes correlate well with values of Es for the isomeric C5H11 substituents, and with logs of relative rates for saponification of the corresponding methyl esters. Logarithms of rate constants for hemi-acetal formation do not, indicating that the steric changes associated with full quaternization of the carbonyl group are not mirrored in the transition structures for hemi-acetal formation. The reasons for this are discussed. Copyright

Exploring the alternatives: Ruthenium imidazoyl phosphine complexes catalyze the domino hydroformylation/reduction of alkenes to alcohols in good yields and with good selectivities (see scheme). Linear aliphatic alcohols are synthesized under reaction conditions typically used in industrial hydroformylations. Copyright
Identification of a marine NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase for chemoselective reduction of aldehydes
Li, Guangyue,Ren, Jie,Wu, Qiaqing,Feng, Jinhui,Zhu, Dunming,Ma, Yanhe
, p. 17 - 22 (2013/05/08)
A putative aldehyde reductase gene from Oceanospirillum sp. MED92 was overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant protein (OsAR) was characterized as a monomeric NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase. The kinetic parameters Km and kcat of OsAR were 0.89 ± 0.08 mM and 11.07 ± 0.99 s-1 for benzaldehyde, 0.04 ± 0.01 mM and 6.05 ± 1.56 s-1 for NADPH, respectively. This enzyme exhibited high activity toward a variety of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes, but no activity toward ketones. As such, it catalyzed the chemoselective reduction of aldehydes in the presence of ketones, as demonstrated by the reduction of 4-acetylbenzaldehyde or the mixture of hexanal and 2-nonanone, showing the application potential of this marine enzyme in such selective reduction of synthetic importance.
