The objective of this work is to understand the role of metals on the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reaction pathways of three bio-oil model compounds. Ni, Ru and Pd were impregnated on USY zeolite, and the catalysts were characterized to determine metal reduction profile, surface concentration and nanoparticle size. Ru-USY and Pd-USY were completely reduced at a temperature below 450 °C, but Ni-USY still contained surface metal oxides after reduction. There was no indication of strong interactions between the metals and USY support. Anisole, 4-ethylphenol and benzofuran were used as bio-oil model compounds, in order to determine the effects of each metal on deoxygenation of methoxy-, phenol and furan functional groups, respectively. Pd-USY was the most effective HDO catalyst, exhibiting the highest turnover frequency for HDO of all three model compounds, in addition to and high selectivity to deoxygenated products. A mechanism was proposed for each model compound, and the kinetics of hydrogenation, dehydration, C–C coupling and ring-opening reactions were determined.
Mechanistic studies of alkene isomerization catalyzed by CCC-pincer complexes of iridium

Iridium complexes containing CCC-pincer m-phenylene-bridged N-heterocyclic carbene ligands were examined as catalysts for alkene isomerization. Complexes containing either mesityl or adamantyl side groups were found to catalyze the isomerization of a number of alkenes to the internal isomers, including 1-octene, vinylcyclohexane, and allylbenzene. Mechanistic studies indicate a surprising dichotomy, apparently caused by ligand steric effects. For the mesityl-substituted catalyst, several lines of evidence provide strong support for isomerization via an iridium allyl hydride intermediate: (1) H-D crossover experiments indicate that 1,3-hydrogen migration is exclusively intramolecular, (2) the catalyst resting state, a π-allyl hydride species, was isolated and serves as a kinetically competent catalyst, (3) NMR experiments indicate that the π-allyl hydride resting state undergoes reversible C-H reductive elimination that is rapid relative to catalytic turnover, and (4) kinetic studies indicate that the isomerization reaction is first order in substrate and catalyst, consistent with turnover-limiting ligand substitution. H-D crossover experiments for alkene isomerization catalyzed by the adamantyl-substituted complex show selectivity for a 1,3-deuterium shift, as well as the intermolecular transfer of hydrogen. These results are consistent with an insertion/elimination mechanism proceeding selectively through a secondary metal-alkyl or with a π-allyl-type mechanism with an unknown pathway for intermolecular hydrogen crossover.

The first examples of the PN-directed dilithiation of (N-methoxycarbonyl)phosphazenes in the Cα and Cortho to the phosphorus, and the use of these dianions in the formation of tri- and tetra-substituted olefins through stereospecific thermolysis of a new type of isolable bicyclic 1,2-oxaphosphetanes are described.

Alkenes are used ubiquitously as starting materials and synthetic targets in all areas of chemistry. Controlling their geometry and position along a chain is vital to their reactivity and properties yet remains challenging. Alkene isomerization is an atom-economical process to synthesize targeted alkenes, and selectivity can be controlled using transition metal catalysts. The development of mild, selective isomerization reactivity has enabled efficient tandem catalytic systems for the remote functionalization of alkenes, a process in which a starting alkene is isomerized to a new position prior to the functionalization step. The key challenges in developing isomerization catalysts for remote functionalization applications are (i) a lack of modularity in the catalyst structure and (ii) the requirement of nonmodular and/or harsh additives during catalyst activation. We address both challenges with a modular (NHC)Ni(0)/silane catalytic system (NHC, N-heterocyclic carbene), demonstrating the use of triaryl silanes and readily accessible (NHC)Ni(0) complexes to form the proposed active (NHC)(silyl)Ni-H species in situ. We show that modification of the steric and electronic nature of the catalyst via modification of the ancillary ligand and silane partner, respectively, is easily achieved, creating a uniquely versatile catalytic system that is effective for the formation of internal alkenes with high yield and selectivity for the E-alkene. The use of silanes as mild activators enables isomerization of substrates with a variety of functional groups, including acid-labile groups. The broad substrate scope, enabled by catalyst design, makes this catalytic system a strong candidate for use in tandem catalytic applications. Preliminary mechanistic studies support a Ni-H insertion/elimination pathway.
The formyloxyl radical: Electrophilicity, C-H bond activation and anti-Markovnikov selectivity in the oxidation of aliphatic alkenes

In the past the formyloxyl radical, HC(O)O, had only been rarely experimentally observed, and those studies were theoretical-spectroscopic in the context of electronic structure. The absence of a convenient method for the preparation of the formyloxyl radical has precluded investigations into its reactivity towards organic substrates. Very recently, we discovered that HC(O)O is formed in the anodic electrochemical oxidation of formic acid/lithium formate. Using a [CoIIIW12O40]5- polyanion catalyst, this led to the formation of phenyl formate from benzene. Here, we present our studies into the reactivity of electrochemically in situ generated HC(O)O with organic substrates. Reactions with benzene and a selection of substituted derivatives showed that HC(O)O is mildly electrophilic according to both experimentally and computationally derived Hammett linear free energy relationships. The reactions of HC(O)O with terminal alkenes significantly favor anti-Markovnikov oxidations yielding the corresponding aldehyde as the major product as well as further oxidation products. Analysis of plausible reaction pathways using 1-hexene as a representative substrate favored the likelihood of hydrogen abstraction from the allylic C-H bond forming a hexallyl radical followed by strongly preferred further attack of a second HC(O)O radical at the C1 position. Further oxidation products are surmised to be mostly a result of two consecutive addition reactions of HC(O)O to the CC double bond. An outer-sphere electron transfer between the formyloxyl radical donor and the [CoIIIW12O40]5- polyanion acceptor forming a donor-acceptor [D+-A-] complex is proposed to induce the observed anti-Markovnikov selectivity. Finally, the overall reactivity of HC(O)O towards hydrogen abstraction was evaluated using additional substrates. Alkanes were only slightly reactive, while the reactions of alkylarenes showed that aromatic substitution on the ring competes with C-H bond activation at the benzylic position. C-H bonds with bond dissociation energies (BDE) ≤ 85 kcal mol-1 are easily attacked by HC(O)O and reactivity appears to be significant for C-H bonds with a BDE of up to 90 kcal mol-1. In summary, this research identifies the reactivity of HC(O)O towards radical electrophilic substitution of arenes, anti-Markovnikov type oxidation of terminal alkenes, and indirectly defines the activity of HC(O)O towards C-H bond activation.
