- Photolysis of Tp′Rh(CNneopentyl)(PhNCNneopentyl) in the presence of ketones and esters: Kinetic and thermodynamic selectivity for activation of different aliphatic C-H bonds
-
The active fragment [Tp′Rh(CNneopentyl)], generated from the precursor Tp′Rh(CNneopentyl)(PhNCNneopentyl), underwent oxidative addition of substituted ketones and esters resulting in Tp′Rh(CNneopentyl)(R)(H) complexes (Tp′ = tris-(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate). These C-H activated complexes underwent reductive elimination at varying temperatures (24-70 °C) in C6D6 or C6D12. Using previously established kinetic techniques, the relative Rh-C bond strengths were calculated. Analysis of the relative Rh-C bond strengths vs. C-H bond strengths shows a linear correlation with slope RM-C/C-H = 1.22 (12). In general, α-substituents increase the relative Rh-C bond strengths compared to the C-H bond that is broken.

- Chemoselective Oxidation of Equatorial Alcohols with N-Ligated λ3-Iodanes
-
The site-selective and chemoselective functionalization of alcohols in complex polyols remains a formidable synthetic challenge. Whereas significant advancements have been made in selective derivatization at the oxygen center, chemoselective oxidation to the corresponding carbonyls is less developed. In cyclic systems, whereas the selective oxidation of axial alcohols is well known, a complementary equatorial selective process has not yet been reported. Herein we report the utility of nitrogen-ligated (bis)cationic λ3-iodanes (N-HVIs) for alcohol oxidation and their unprecedented levels of selectivity for the oxidation of equatorial over axial alcohols. The conditions are mild, and the simple pyridine-ligated reagent (Py-HVI) is readily synthesized from commercial PhI(OAc)2 and can be either isolated or generated in situ. Conformational selectivity is demonstrated in both flexible 1,2-substituted cyclohexanols and rigid polyol scaffolds, providing chemists with a novel tool for chemoselective oxidation.

- Recyclable Pd-contained perovskite catalyst synthesized by a low temperature hydrothermal method for aerobic alcohol oxidation
-
We successfully prepared Pd-containing perovskite strontium titanate (Pd-STO) by a relatively low-temperature hydrothermal method (i.e., 373 K) without posterior calcination. The particle size and porosity of the STO perovskite could be tuned by changing the molar ratio of H2O/NH3 (e.g., 5.0, 12.5 and 25.0) during the preparation of the amorphous titania sources. The mesoporous contained Pd-STO(12.5) showed superior catalytic performance compared to that of the other Pd-STO(x) (x = H2O/NH3) perovskites for alcohol oxidation with molecular oxygen. Both the refluxing of the non-polar solvents and addition of molecular sieves enhanced the reaction yield significantly. The Pd-incorporated perovskite (Pd-STO) showed better recyclability compared with that of the impregnated perovskite (imp-Pd/STO).

- Design and Assembly of a Chiral Metallosalen-Based Octahedral Coordination Cage for Supramolecular Asymmetric Catalysis
-
Supramolecular containers featuring both high catalytic activity and high enantioselectivity represent a design challenge of practical importance. Herein, it is demonstrated that a chiral octahedral coordination cage can be constructed by using twelve enantiopure Mn(salen)-derived dicarboxylic acids as linear linkers and six Zn4-p-tert-butylsulfonylcalix[4]arene clusters as tetravalent four-connected vertices. The porous cage features a large hydrophobic cavity (≈3944 ?3) decorated with catalytically active metallosalen species and is shown to be an efficient and recyclable asymmetric catalyst for the oxidative kinetic resolution of racemic secondary alcohols and the epoxidation of olefins with up to >99 % enantiomeric excess. The cage architecture not only prevents intermolecular deactivation and stabilizes the Mn(salen) catalysts but also encapsulates substrates and concentrates reactants in the cavity, resulting in enhanced reactivity and enantioselectivity relative to the free metallosalen catalyst.

Racemization in combination with a kinetic resolution is the base for a dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR). Biocatalytic racemization was successfully performed for a broad scope of sec-alcohols by employing a single alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) variant from Thermoanaerobacter pseudoethanolicus (formerly T. ethanolicus; TeSADH W110A I86A C295A). The catalyst employed as a lyophilized whole cell preparation or cell free extract, which tolerated various non-water miscible organic solvents under micro-aqueous or two-phase conditions, whereby cyclohexane and n-hexane suited best. Various concepts for combining the enzymatic racemization with an enzymatic kinetic resolution to achieve overall a bis-enzymatic DKR were evaluated. A proof of concept showed a successful DKR with racemization in aqueous phase combined with acylation in the organic phase.

Gold nanoparticles supported on magnesium oxide nanorods (Au-MgO) have been synthesised by a solution based chemical reduction method. Au-MgO nanorods were found to be an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for oxidation of alcohols with hydrogen peroxide in aqueous medium at room temperature. To find out the best reaction conditions for oxidation, optimization of catalyst quantity, solvent, mole equivalence of hydrogen peroxide were carried out. The scope of the reaction was extended to several aromatic and aliphatic alcohols, product yields were quantified by gas chromatography (GC) and GC/mass spectroscopy.

- Expanding Substrate Specificity of ω-Transaminase by Rational Remodeling of a Large Substrate-Binding Pocket
-
Production of structurally diverse chiral amines via biocatalytic transamination is challenged by severe steric interference in a small active site pocket of ω-transaminase (ω-TA). Herein, we demonstrated that structure-guided remodeling of a large pocket by a single point mutation, instead of excavating the small pocket, afforded desirable alleviation of the steric constraint without deteriorating parental activities toward native substrates. Molecular modeling suggested that the L57 residue of the ω-TA from Ochrobactrum anthropi acted as a latch that forced bulky substrates to undergo steric interference with the small pocket. Removal of the latch by a L57A substitution allowed relocation of the small pocket and dramatically improved activities toward various arylalkylamines and alkylamines (e.g., 1100-fold increase in kcat/KM for α-propylbenzylamine). This approach may provide a facile strategy to broaden the substrate specificity of ω-TAs.

The coupled enzyme reaction enabled simultaneous production of enantiopure (R)-amine and l-homoalanine which are pharmaceutically important building blocks. To extend the versatility of this strategy to production of both enantiomers of chiral amines, (R)-selective ω-TA coupled with TD was employed to produce (S)-amine.

- The palladium-catalyzed aerobic kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols: Reaction development, scope, and applications
-
The first palladium-catalyzed enantioselective oxidation of secondary alcohols has been developed, utilizing the readily available diamine (-)-sparteine as a chiral ligand and molecular oxygen as the stoichiometric oxidant. Mechanistic insights regarding the role of the base and hydrogen-bond donors have resulted in several improvements to the original system. Namely, addition of cesium carbonate and tert-butyl alcohol greatly enhances reaction rates, promoting rapid resolutions. The use of chloroform as solvent allows the use of ambient air as the terminal oxidant at 23°C, resulting in enhanced catalyst selectivity. These improved reaction conditions have permitted the successful kinetic resolution of benzylic, allylic, and cyclopropyl secondary alcohols to high enantiomeric excess with good-toexcellent selectivity factors. This catalyst system has also been applied to the desymmetrization of meso-diols, providing high yields of enantioenriched hydroxyketones.

- Preparation of (R)-amines from racemic amines with an (S)-amine transaminase from Bacillus megaterium
-
Screening was carried out to identify strains useful for the preparation of (R)-1-cyclopropylethylamine and (R)-sec-butylamine by resolution of the racemic amines with an (S)-specific transaminase. Several Bacillus megaterium strains from our culture collection as well as several soil isolates were found to have the desired activity for the resolution of the racemic amines to give the (R)-enantiomers. Using an extract of the best strain, Bacillus megaterium SC6394, the reaction was shown to be a trans-amination requiring pyruvate as amino acceptor and pyridoxal phosphate as a cofactor. Initial batches of both amines were produced using whole cells of Bacillus megaterium SC6394. The transaminase was purified to homogeneity to obtain N-terminal as well as internal amino acid sequences. The sequences were used to design polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers to enable cloning and expression of the trans-aminase in E. coli SC16578. In contrast to the original B. megaterium process, pH control and aeration were not required for the resolution of sec-butyl-amine and an excess of pyruvate was not consumed by the recombinant cells. The resolution of sec-butylamine (0.68M) using whole cells of E. coli SC16578 was scaled up to give (R)-sec-butylamine·1/2 H2SO 4 in 46.6% isolated yield with 99.2% ee. An alternative isolation procedure was also used to isolate (R)-secbutylamine as the free base.

- Insight into the mechanism of oxidative kinetic resolution of racemic secondary alcohols by using manganese(III)(salen) complexes as catalysts
-
The oxidative kinetic resolution of various racemic secondary alcohols with PhI(OAc)2 catalyzed by chiral [MnIII(salen)] complexes in the presence of KBr was studied in a water/organic solvent mixture. The dramatic, synergetic effect of additives, organic solvent, and the substituents of chiral salen ligands on the enantioselectivities of the reactions is reported. Results from UV/Vis spectroscopy and ESI-MS studies provide evidence that these reactions are induced by the formation of a high-valent manganese intermediate.

- Biomimetic alcohol oxidations by an iron(III) porphyrin complex: Relevance to cytochrome P-450 catalytic oxidation and involvement of the two-state radical rebound mechanism
-
The systematic oxidation reactions of a wide range of alcohols have been carried out by using an iron porphyrin complex in order to understand their relation to cytochrome P-450 enzymes and to have a practical application to organic synthesis. The iron porphyrin complex catalyzed efficiently alcohol oxidation to the respective carbonyl compound via a high-valent iron-oxo porphyrin intermediate ((Porp)Fe=O+). Several mechanistic studies such as isotope 18O labeling, deuterium isotope effect, linear free energy relationship, and ring-opening of radical clock substrate, have suggested that the alcohol is oxidized by a sequence of reactions involving an a-hydroxyalkyl radical intermediate and oxygen rebound to form the gem-diol, dehydration of which yields the carbonyl compounds. Moreover, it has been proposed that a two-state reactivity mechanism can also be adopted for alcohol oxidation reactions in iron porphyrin model systems as exhibited by P-450 enzymes.

- Scope of enantioselective Palladium(II)-catalyzed aerobic alcohol oxidations with (-)-sparteine
-
Evaluation of the substrate scope for Pd(II)/ (-)-sparteine catalyzed aerobic oxidative kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols is disclosed. An improved system is found with use of tert-butyl alcohol solvent in which benzylic and aliphatic alcohols as well as alcohols containing olefins are effectively oxidatively resolved. For substrates that successfully undergo oxidative kinetic resolution, krel values are generally between 10 and 20. Successful scale-up of various substrates to 10-mmol scale is described. Extension to oxidative desymmetrization of 1,3-meso-diols is successful with enantiomeric excesses ranging from 78 to 85%.

- Palladium-catalyzed aerobic oxidative kinetic resolution of alcohols with an achiral exogenous base
-
Substitution of exogenous (-)-sparteine for a more practical achiral base in the aerobic oxidative kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols is described. Carbonate bases are the most effective of those screened and allow for effective kinetic resolution of benzylic, allylic, and aliphatic substrates. The procedure was also successfully extended to the oxidative desymmetrization of meso diols.

- PROCESS FOR THE CONVERSION OF CARBOXYLIC ACIDS TO KETONES
-
Disclosed is a process for the preparation of ketones by contacting one or more carboxylic acids with a niobium catalyst at elevated temperatures. The process includes the use of a modified base-exchanged niobium catalyst that is particularly useful for the production of cyclopropyl ketones such as cyclopropyl methyl ketone from cyclopropanecarboxylic acid and acetic acid.

- The Mn(acac)3-RCN-CCl4 system as a new efficient reagent for the oxidation of secondary alcohols into ketones
-
The Mn(acac)3-RCN-CCl4 system was found to be efficient for the oxidation of secondary alcohols into the corresponding ketones in 80-93% yields. The oxidation proceeds through the formation of alkyl hypochlorites, which are generated from CCl4 and the alcohols in the presence of the Mn(acac)3-RCN catalytic system (R = Me, Et, and Ph).

- Oxidation of Isopropylcyclopropane by Chromyl Chloride: Ring-Opened Products Support a Hydrogen Atom Abstraction Mechanism
-
Chromyl chloride (CrO2Cl2) reacts with neat isopropylcyclopropane at 65 °C to give a dark precipitate along with at least 20 organic products. Both cyclopropyl products and ring-opened products are observed: 2-cyclopropyl-2-chloropropane (1,0.4% yield based on chromium), 2-cyclopropyl-2-propanol (2, 0.2%), 5-chloro-2-methyl-2-pentene (3, 0.3%), and 4-methyl-3-penten-1-ol (4, 0.5%) as well as other ring-opened products. Authentic samples of 1-4 were synthesized, and their GC and GC/ MS data were compared with the reaction mixture. Other organic products (5-10) were tentatively assigned by GC/MS on the basis of their m / z and fragmentation patterns. The ratio of (1 + 2) vs (3 + 4) increases by a factor of 2 when the initial concentration of CrO2Cl2 increases from 0.3 to 1.12 M. The reaction was also carried out in the gas phase, and essentially all the products from the liquid phase reaction were observed. The products are explained by a mechanism involving initial hydrogen atom abstraction from the substrate. The resulting dimethylcyclopropylcarbinyl radical can either be trapped by CrO2Cl2 (to form 1 and 2) or ring-open to give 4-methyl-3-pentenyl radical, which reacts with CrO2Cl2 to form 3 and 4 as well as further oxidized products. The oxidation of isopropylcyclopropane by MnO4- in pyridine was also examined. Acetone, an expected ring-opened product, was the only product observed by our analytical techniques. Me2C18O is produced from 18O-labeled MnO4-. These results suggest that the reactions of CrO2Cl2 and MnO4- with isopropylcyclopropane proceed by hydrogen atom transfer to form organic radical intermediates.

- Isomerization of 2-Methyl-4,5-dihydrofuran. Studies with a Single-Pulse Shock Tube
-
The isomerization of 2-methyl-4,5-dihydrofuran was studied behind reflected shock waves in a pressurized driver single-pulse shock tube over the temperature range 805-1030 K and densities of approximately ca 3*10-5 mol/cm3.Two isomerization products, acetylcyclopropane and 3-penten-2-one, are obtained in the isomerization.Acetylcyclopropane is formed in an irreversible process from 2-methyl-4,5-dihydrofuran.It further isomerizes, at higher temperatures, to cis- and trans-3-penten-2-one.At high temperatures where the conversion of 2-methyl-4,5-dihydrofuran is high, the main source for 3-penten-2-one is acetylcyclopropane.At lower temperatures 3-penten-2-one is formed mainly by a direct isomerization of 2-methyl-4,5-dihydrofuran.A small concentration of decomposition products, mainly methane and ethane, are also found in shock mixtures of 2-methyl-4,5-dihydrofuran, particularly at high temperatures.The Arrhenius relations for the tree aforementioned processes are as follows: 2-methyl-4,5-dihydrofuran -> acetylcyclopropane, k1=1015.4 exp(-56.8*103/RT) s-1; 2-methyl-4,5-dihydrofuran -> 3-penten 2-one, k2=1015.7 exp(-63.6*103/RT) s-1; acetylcyclopropane -> 3-penten-2-one, k3=1014.4 exp(-58.3*103/RT) s-1, where R is expressed in units of cal/(K mol).

- Studies on the Catalytic Oxidation of Alkanes and Alkenes by Titanium Silicates
-
Titanium containing, aluminum-free ZSM-5 (TS-1) and amorphous TiO2-SiO2 coprecipitate are investigated as catalysts for the selective oxidation of alkanes and alkenes using a variety of oxidants at temperatures below 100 deg C. Comparisons between the activities of TS-1 and the TiO2-SiO2 coprecipitate for alkane oxidation and alkene epoxidation using nonaqueous H2O2 indicate that the absence of water is crucial for the catalytic activity of silica-supported titanium. Due to the hydrophobicity of TS-1, the concentration of water surrounding the titanium is maintained at a low value, and thus TS-1 can be used as an oxidation catalyst with aqueous H2O2 as oxidant. Alkyl hydroperoxides are active as oxidants for alkene epoxidation on the TiO2-SiO2 coprecipitate but not for alkane oxidation reactions on both TS-1 and the TiO2-SiO2 coprecipitate. A plausible explanation for the above results is provided. The presence of stereoscrambling without any "radical clock" rearrangement during alkane oxidation on TS-1 indicates that the radicals formed may have a very short life-time, or their movements are restricted such that no rearrangement can occur. A proposal for the mechanism of alkane oxidation on TS-1 is given and compared to a mechanism suggested for alkene epoxidation on TS-1 and the TiO2-SiO2 coprecipitate.

- Reaction of bis(trifluoromethyl)amino-oxyl with t-butylbenzene, 2,2-diphenylpropane, benzylcyclopropane and some related alcohols
-
Reaction of the oxyl (CF3)2NO(.) (1) with t-butylbenzene (c. 3:1 molar ratio) at room temperature gives the hydroxylamine (CF3)2NOH (3) (43percent on oxyl) and a multicomponent higher-boiling mixture containing the substitution product (CF3)2NOCH2CMe2Ph (3) (28percent on arene), and the compounds 3-(CF3)2NC6H4CMe3 (5) (8percent on arene) and 4-(CF3)2NC6H4CMe3 (6) (6percent on arene).The reaction with 2,2-diphenylpropane (c. 4:1 molar ratio) at 70-80 deg C affords hydroxylamine 3 (45percent on oxyl) and a complex higher-boiling mixture, from which only the substitution product (CF3)2NOCH2CMePh2 (7) (36percent on arene) could be isolated.In contrast, the reaction of oxyl 1 with benzylcyclopropane at room temperature is clean and gives hydroxylamine 3 (49percent on oxyl) and the substitution product (8) (95percent on cyclopropane).From the reactions of oxyl 1 with 2-phenylpropan-2-ol (2:1 molar ratio), cyclopropylmethanol (c. 4:1 molar ratio) and 1-cyclopropylethanol (2:1 molar ratio) at room temperature, apart from hydroxylamine 3, the isolated products are a mixture of dimers of α-methylstyrene (10-12) (30percent on ol) and the 2:1 adduct of oxyl 1 and α-methylstyrene, i.e. (CF3)2NOCH2CMe(Ph)ON(CF3)2 (9) (50percent on ol); the ester (13) (99percent on ol); and the ketone (15) (60percent on ol), respectively.

- Oxidation of Secondary Alcohols with t-Butyl Hypochlorite in the Presence of Pyridine
-
When treated with t-butyl hypochlorite and pyridine in methylene dichloride, secondary alcohols give the corresponding ketones in very high yield.The relative reactivities of a number of p-substituted 1-phenylethanols containing electron-donating and -withdrawing substituents were investigated.Oxidation of cis- and trans-4-t-butylcyclohexanol, as well as some other cycloalkanols, proceeds with the same relative rate.On the basis of this and other data a cyclic transition state and loss of α-hydrogen of the starting alcohols as hydride ion are proposed as characteristics of the reaction mechanism.
