Comparison of the Oxidative Coupling Reactions of Benzene with Those of Methane of Rare Earth Oxide Catalysts

The oxidative coupling of benzene has been compared with that of methane on La2O3, CeO2, Pr6O11, and Sm2O3. At temperatures greater than 1048 K, the gas phase oxidative coupling of benzene appears to be predominant, while the oxidation occurs catalytically at 873 K. The conversion of benzene and of methane at 873 K follows the order of Sm2O3>La2O3>Pr6O11>CeO2, suggesting that the abstraction of hydrogen from the aromatic and the saturated compounds depends primarily on the nature of the catalyst but not the reactant. Ancillary information has also been obtained from the results of XPS analyses of both fresh catalysts and those previously used in one of the reactions.
Understanding enediyne-protein interactions: Diyl atom transfer results in generation of aminoacyl radicals
Jones, Graham B.,Plourde II, Gary W.,Wright, Justin M.
, p. 811 - 813 (2000)
Formula Presented The origin of the protein modulating capacity of enediynes has been probed. A series of synthetic enediyne-derived diyls participated in atom transfer chemistry with a labeled amino acid. Subsequent experiments suggest that diyl radicals may modulate protein architecture via formation of captodatively stabilized radicals.
Suzuki cross-coupling of hexachlorobenzene promoted by the Buchwald ligands
Burukin, A. S.,Vasil’ev, A. A.,Zhdankina, G. M.,Zlotin, S. G.
, p. 169 - 172 (2022/02/17)
The study of cross-coupling between hexachlorobenzene and phenylboronic acid comprised five Buchwald ligands, from which 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2′-(dimethylamino)biphenyl (DavePHOS) provided the best conversion. When excess of phenylboronic acid was used, a mixture of isomeric tri-, tetra- and pentaphenyl-substituted derivatives in the ～10:70:20 ratio was obtained, along with minor amounts of hydrodechlorination products.

, p. 400 - 402 (2021/06/07)
Screening of four Buchwald ligands for the cross-coupling of isomeric di-, tri- and tetrachlorobenzenes with arylboronic acids revealed that good yields of exhaustive substitution can be best provided by 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2′-(dimethylamino) biphenyl (DavePHOS).
Nickel-Catalyzed Ring-Opening Allylation of Cyclopropanols via Homoenolate
Sekiguchi, Yoshiya,Lee, Yan Ying,Yoshikai, Naohiko
, p. 5993 - 5997 (2021/08/16)
We report herein a nickel-catalyzed ring-opening allylation of cyclopropanols with allylic carbonates that occurs under mild and neutral conditions. The reaction displays linear selectivity for both linear and branched acyclic allylic carbonates and is also applicable to cyclic allylic carbonates, affording a variety of δ,?-unsaturated ketones in moderate to good yields. Mechanistic experiments are in accord with a catalytic cycle involving decarboxylative oxidative addition of allylic carbonate to Ni(0), alkoxide exchange with cyclopropanol, cyclopropoxide-to-homoenolate conversion on Ni(II), and C-C reductive elimination.
Experimental and Computational Studies towards Chemoselective C?F over C?Cl Functionalisation: Reversible Oxidative Addition is the Key
Jacobs, Emily,Keaveney, Sinead T.
, p. 637 - 645 (2020/12/07)
Catalytic cross-coupling is a valuable tool for forming new carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds, allowing access to a variety of structurally diverse compounds. However, for this methodology to reach its full potential, precise control over all competing cross-coupling sites in poly-functionalised building blocks is required. Carbon-fluorine bonds are one of the most stable bonds in organic chemistry, with oxidative addition at C?F being much more difficult than at other C-halide bonds. As such, the development of methods to chemoselectively functionalise the C?F position in poly-halogenated arenes would be very challenging if selectivity was to be induced at the oxidative addition step. However, metal-halide complexes exhibit different trends in reactivity to the parent haloarenes, with metal-fluoride complexes known to be very reactive towards transmetalation. In this current work we sought to exploit the divergent reactivity of Ni?Cl and Ni?F intermediates to develop a chemoselective C?F functionalisation protocol, where selectivity is controlled by the transmetalation step. Our experimental studies highlight that such an approach is feasible, with a number of nickel catalysts shown to facilitate Hiyama cross-coupling of 1-fluoronapthalene under base free conditions, while no cross-coupling with 1-chloronapthalene occurred. Computational and experimental studies revealed the importance of reversible C?Cl oxidative addition for the development of selective C?F functionalisation, with ligand effects on the potential for reversibility also presented.

Three-dimensionally propagated imidazolium-containing mesoporous coordination polymer and organic polymer-based platforms were successfully exploited to develop single-site heterogenized Pd-NHC catalysts for oxidative arene/heteroarene C-H functionalization reactions. The catalysts were efficient in directed arene halogenation, and nondirected arene and heteroarene arylation reactions. High catalytic activity, excellent heterogeneity and recyclability were offered by these systems making them promising candidates in the area of heterogeneous C-H functionalization, where efficient catalysts are still scarce.
Organocatalyst in Direct C(sp2)-H Arylation of Unactivated Arenes: [1-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-piperazine]-Catalyzed Inter-/Intra-molecular C-H Bond Activation

This article describes the identification of 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-piperazine as a new, cost-effective, highly efficient organocatalyst, which promotes both inter- A nd intra-molecular direct C(sp2)-H arylations of unactivated arenes in the presence of potassium tert-butoxide. While the inter-molecular C-H arylation of unactivated benzenes with aryl halides (Ar-X; X = I, Br, Cl) toward biaryl syntheses underwent smoothly in the presence of only 10 mol percent organocatalyst, the intra-molecular C-H arylation catalytic system composed of 40 mol percent each of the catalyst and the additive (4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP)). The novel catalyst was also able to perform both inter- A nd intra-molecular direct arylations simultaneously in a single pot. The mechanistic studies confirmed the involvement of aryl radical anions and proceeded via a single-electron-transfer (SET) mechanism. The large substrate scope, high functional group tolerance, competition experiments, gram-scale synthesis, and kinetic studies further highlight the importance and versatile nature of the methodology as well as the compatibility of the new catalyst. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on any organocatalyst that reported detailed investigations of both inter- A nd intra-molecular direct C(sp2)-H arylations of unactivated arenes in a single representation.
Palladium (II)–Salan Complexes as Catalysts for Suzuki–Miyaura C–C Cross-Coupling in Water and Air. Effect of the Various Bridging Units within the Diamine Moieties on the Catalytic Performance

Water-soluble salan ligands were synthesized by hydrogenation and subsequent sulfonation of salens (N,N’-bis(slicylidene)ethylenediamine and analogues) with various bridging units (linkers) connecting the nitrogen atoms. Pd (II) complexes were obtained in reactions of sulfosalans and [PdCl4]2?. Characterization of the ligands and complexes included extensive X-ray diffraction studies, too. The Pd (II) complexes proved highly active catalysts of the Suzuki–Miyaura reaction of aryl halides and arylboronic acid derivatives at 80 ?C in water and air. A comparative study of the Pd (II)–sulfosalan catalysts showed that the catalytic activity largely increased with increasing linker length and with increasing steric congestion around the N donor atoms of the ligands; the highest specific activity was 40,000 (mol substrate) (mol catalyst × h)?1. The substrate scope was explored with the use of the two most active catalysts, containing 1,4-butylene and 1,2-diphenylethylene linkers, respectively.

The Suzuki-Miyaura reaction is a cornerstone method for sp2-sp2 cross-coupling in industry. There has been a concerted effort to enable the use of Ni catalysis as an alternative to Pd in order to mitigate cost and improve sustainability. Despite significant advances, ligand development for Ni-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling remains underdeveloped when compared to Pd and, as a consequence, ligands for Ni-catalyzed processes are typically taken from the Pd arena. In this study we evaluate the effect of using a similar Ni and Pd precatalyst based on a common bidentate ligand (dppf) in a head-to-head format for the most common type of biaryl couplings, establishing the practical implications of direct replacement of Pd with Ni, and identifying the potential origins of these observations in a mechanistic context.
