An effective method based on supported ionic liquid system was employed to immobilize chiral Mn(III) salen complexes. The prepared heterogeneous catalysts exhibited excellent activity and enantioselectivity in the asymmetric epoxidation of unfunctionalize

Selective hydrogenation of epoxides would be a direct and powerful approach for alcohol synthesis, but it has proven to be elusive. Here, electrochemically epoxide hydrogenation using electrons and protons as reductants is reported. A wide range of primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols can be achieved through selective Markovnikov or anti-Markovnikov ring opening in the absence of transition metals. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the regioselectivity is controlled by the thermodynamic stabilities of the in situ generated benzyl radicals for aryl-substituted epoxides and the kinetic tendency for Markovnikov selective ring opening for alkyl-substituted epoxides.

Herein, one kind of neutral chiral zirconium metal-organic framework (Zr-MOF) was reported from the porphyrinic MOF (PMOF) family with a metallolinker (MnIII-porphyrin) as the achiral polytopic linker [free base tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin] and chiral anions. Achiral Zr-MOF was chiralized through the exchange of primitive anions with new chiral organic anions (postsynthetic exchange). This chiral functional porphyrinic MOF (CPMOF) was characterized by several techniques such as powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, 1H NMR, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller measurements. In the resulting structure, there are two active metal sites as Lewis acid centers (Zr and Mn) and chiral species as Br?nsted acid sites along with their cooperation as nucleophiles. This CPMOF shows considerable bimodal porosity with high surface area and stability. Additionally, its ability was investigated in asymmetric catalyses of prochiral substrates. Interactions between framework chiral species and prochiral substrates have large impacts on the catalytic ability and chirality induction. This chiral catalyst proceeded asymmetric epoxidation and CO2 fixation reactions at lower pressure with high enantioselectivity due to Lewis acids and chiral auxiliary nucleophiles without significant loss of activity up to the sixth step of consecutive cycles of reusability. Observations revealed that chiralization of Zr-MOF could happen by a succinct strategy that can be a convenient method to design chiral MOFs.

Abstract: A chirality inducer was prepared by graphite oxide (GO) functionalization with enantiopure l-tartrate (GO*) and used as asymmetric support for a covalently-linked manganese porphyrine complex [Mn(TPyP)OAc]. The thereby obtained heterogeneous catalyst, GO*-[Mn(TPyP)OAc], showed excellent performance and ee-values of 92–99% for the asymmetric epoxidation of prochiral olefins with O2 as oxidant and isobutyraldehyde as co-reductant in acetonitrile; linear terminal olefins with 54–76% conversion and quantitative conversion of aromatic olefins. The GO*-[Mn(TPyP)OAc] catalyst is highly active, recyclable, and at the same time simple and inexpensive to prepare with a chiral inducer from the chiral pool. The structure of the catalyst was elucidated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), BET analysis,?FT-IR, Raman, and photoluminescence spectroscopic methods. Graphic Abstract: Graphite oxide functionalized with an enantiopure group was used as a chirality inducer and asymmetric support for a Mn-porphyrine complex. The thereby obtained heterogeneous catalyst is an excellent enantioselective catalyst for the epoxidation of prochiral olefins.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].
