One-pot Synthesis of 1,3-Butadiene and 1,6-Hexanediol Derivatives from Cyclopentadiene (CPD) via Tandem Olefin Metathesis Reactions

A novel tandem reaction of cyclopentadiene leading to high value linear chemicals via ruthenium catalyzed ring opening cross metathesis (ROCM), followed by cross metathesis (CM) is reported. The ROCM of cyclopentadiene (CPD) with ethylene using commercially available 2nd gen. Grubbs metathesis catalysts (1-G2) gives 1,3-butadiene (BD) and 1,4-pentadiene (2) (and 1,4-cyclohexadiene (3)) with reasonable yields (up to 24 % (BD) and 67 % (2+3) at 73 % CPD conversion) at 1–5 mol % catalyst loading in toluene solution (5 V% CPD, 10 bar, RT) in an equilibrium reaction. The ROCM of CPD with cis-butene diol diacetate (4) using 1.00 - 0.05 mol % of 3rd gen. Grubbs (1-G3) or 2nd gen. Hoveyda-Grubbs (1-HG2) catalysts loading gives hexa-2,4-diene-1,6-diyl diacetate (5), which is a precursor of 1,6-hexanediol (an intermediate in polyurethane, polyester and polyol synthesis) and hepta-2,5-diene-1,7-diyl diacetate (6) in good yield (up to 68 % or TON: 1180). Thus, convenient and selective synthetic procedures are revealed by ROCM of CPD with ethylene and 4 leading to BD and 1,6-hexanediol precursor, respectively, as key components of commercial intermediates of high-performance materials.

Organic Photochemistry in the Far-ultraviolet: Unusual Wavelength Dependence in Solution-phase Irradiations

In the region from 185 to 215 nm certain compounds show extreme selectivity in their photodecomposition modes in solution depending on the wavelength even though such compounds possess only one intense absorption in this region.
