- Rethinking Basic Concepts-Hydrogenation of Alkenes Catalyzed by Bench-Stable Alkyl Mn(I) Complexes
-
An efficient additive-free manganese-catalyzed hydrogenation of alkenes to alkanes with molecular hydrogen is described. This reaction is atom economic, implementing an inexpensive, earth-abundant nonprecious metal catalyst. The most efficient precatalyst is the bench-stable alkyl bisphosphine Mn(I) complex fac-[Mn(dippe)(CO)3(CH2CH2CH3)]. The catalytic process is initiated by migratory insertion of a CO ligand into the Mn-alkyl bond to yield an acyl intermediate which undergoes rapid hydrogenolysis to form the active 16e Mn(I) hydride catalyst [Mn(dippe)(CO)2(H)]. A range of mono- A nd disubstituted alkenes were efficiently converted into alkanes in good to excellent yields. The hydrogenation of 1-alkenes and 1,1-disubstituted alkenes proceeds at 25 °C, while 1,2-disubstituted alkenes require a reaction temperature of 60 °C. In all cases, a catalyst loading of 2 mol % and a hydrogen pressure of 50 bar were applied. A mechanism based on DFT calculations is presented, which is supported by preliminary experimental studies.

- Biomolecule-derived supported cobalt nanoparticles for hydrogenation of industrial olefins, natural oils and more in water
-
Catalytic hydrogenation of olefins using noble metal catalysts or pyrophoric RANEY nickel is of high importance in the chemical industry. From the point of view of green and sustainable chemistry, design and development of Earth-abundant, less toxic, and more environmentally friendly catalysts are highly desirable. Herein, we report the convenient preparation of active cobalt catalysts and their application in hydrogenations of a wide range of terminal and internal carbon-carbon double bonds in water under mild conditions. Catalysts are prepared on multi-gram scale by pyrolysis of cobalt acetate and uracil, guanine, adenine or l-tryptophan. The most active material Co-Ura/C-600 showed good productivity in industrially relevant hydrogenation of diisobutene to isooctane and in natural oil hardening.

- STABILIZATION OF ACTIVE METAL CATALYSTS AT METAL-ORGANIC FRAMEWORK NODES FOR HIGHLY EFFICIENT ORGANIC TRANSFORMATIONS
-
Metal-organic framework (MOFs) compositions based on post?synthetic metalation of secondary building unit (SBU) terminal or bridging OH or OH2 groups with metal precursors or other post-synthetic manipulations are described. The MOFs provide a versatile family of recyclable and reusable single-site solid catalysts for catalyzing a variety of asymmetric organic transformations, including the regioselective boryiation and siiylation of benzyiic C—H bonds, the hydrogenation of aikenes, imines, carbonyls, nitroarenes, and heterocycles, hydroboration, hydrophosphination, and cyclization reactions. The solid catalysts can also be integrated into a flow reactor or a supercritical fluid reactor.

- Single-Site Cobalt Catalysts at New Zr8(μ2-O)8(μ2-OH)4 Metal-Organic Framework Nodes for Highly Active Hydrogenation of Alkenes, Imines, Carbonyls, and Heterocycles
-
We report here the synthesis of robust and porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), M-MTBC (M = Zr or Hf), constructed from the tetrahedral linker methane-tetrakis(p-biphenylcarboxylate) (MTBC) and two types of secondary building units (SBUs): cubic M8(μ2-O)8(μ2-OH)4 and octahedral M6(μ3-O)4(μ3-OH)4. While the M6-SBU is isostructural with the 12-connected octahedral SBUs of UiO-type MOFs, the M8-SBU is composed of eight MIV ions in a cubic fashion linked by eight μ2-oxo and four μ2-OH groups. The metalation of Zr-MTBC SBUs with CoCl2, followed by treatment with NaBEt3H, afforded highly active and reusable solid Zr-MTBC-CoH catalysts for the hydrogenation of alkenes, imines, carbonyls, and heterocycles. Zr-MTBC-CoH was impressively tolerant of a range of functional groups and displayed high activity in the hydrogenation of tri- and tetra-substituted alkenes with TON > 8000 for the hydrogenation of 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene. Our structural and spectroscopic studies show that site isolation of and open environments around the cobalt-hydride catalytic species at Zr8-SBUs are responsible for high catalytic activity in the hydrogenation of a wide range of challenging substrates. MOFs thus provide a novel platform for discovering and studying new single-site base-metal solid catalysts with enormous potential for sustainable chemical synthesis.

- Visible-light-induced photocatalytic reductive transformations of organohalides
-
A photo opportunity: A visible-light-excited iridium catalyst delivers electrons from an amine to an organohalide. The electron transfer then induces reductive scission of the carbon-halogen bond, generating the corresponding alkyl, alkenyl, and aryl radical that can undergo cyclization and hydrodehalogenation reactions.

- Iron-catalyzed, hydrogen-mediated reductive cyclization of 1,6-enynes and diynes: Evidence for bis(imino)pyridine ligand participation
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) The bis(imino)pyridine iron dinitrogen complex (iPrPDI)Fe(N2)2 catalyzes the hydrogen-mediated reductive cyclization of enynes and diynes with turnover frequencies comparable to those of established precious metal catalysts. Amino, oxygenated, and carbon-based substrates are readily cyclized to the corresponding hetero- and carbocycles with 5 mol % iron and 4 atm H2 at 23°C. Stoichiometric reactions between selected substrates and the iron compound under a N2 atmosphere established transfer dehydrogenation from an isopropyl aryl substituent to either the enyne or diyne substrate. In situ monitoring of the catalytic reaction by 1H NMR spectroscopy coupled with deuterium labeling experiments established rapid cyclization followed by turnoverlimiting hydrogenation. Copyright

- Selective reduction of mono- and disubstituted olefins by NaBH4 and catalytic RuCl3
-
Direct use of the relatively inexpensive reagent, RuCl3 × H2O, as a catalyst for the reductions of olefins in the presence of water is reported. The combination of cheap and readily available sodium borohydride and a catalytic amount of RuCl3 × H2O selectively reduces mono- and disubstituted olefins, whereas trisubstituted olefins, unless activated, and benzyl ethers remain inert.

- Substituent effects on partition coefficients of barbituric acids
-
Precise partition coefficients in 1-octanol-water at 25°C were determined for three 2-thiobarbituric acids and 14 barbituric acids with a wider range of substituents. The experimental log P values (log P(exp)) of barbituric acids were correlated with the carbon number and the branching effect of the C5 substituent(s) by linear regression analysis. The carbon number term makes a major contribution to the partition coefficients. The contribution of the polar effect of the C5 substituents was insignificant in contrast to a previous report. Hydrophobic constants (π) were determined for allyl, phenyl, and chloro-substituents, and these emperical π values gave much closer predicted calculated log P (log P(calc)) values when applied to the reported log P(exp) values.
