Post-synthesized zirconium-containing Beta zeolite in Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction: Pros and cons
Wang, Jie,Okumura, Kazu,Jaenicke, Stephan,Chuah, Gaik-Khuan

Zr-Beta zeolite was prepared by a two-step post-synthesis method involving dealumination of Al-Beta followed by wet impregnation with Zr(NO3)4. Compared with Zr-Beta formed under fluoride-mediated hydrothermal conditions, the post-synthesized samples had smaller particle size and stronger Lewis acidity. The materials were tested as catalysts for Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction. In the reduction of 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone, it exhibited the same excellent stereoselectivity toward cis-4-tert-butylcyclohexanol (>99%) as the HF-synthesized Zr-Beta, but had a lower TOF. Because of the higher density of zirconium sites and the nanosized crystallites, it was a more effective catalyst for the MPV reduction of 1,4-cyclohexanedione, bulky aldehydes and aromatic ketones. However, it is more susceptible to poisoning by water adsorption because of its hydrophilic nature. The easily scalable synthesis method allows a faster preparation of metal-substituted Lewis acid zeolites, although differences in textural and chemical properties should be taken into consideration when the material is applied as a catalyst.
Fast and selective iron-catalyzed transfer hydrogenations of aldehydes

, p. 156 - 159 (2013)
An efficient iron-based catalyst system consisting of Fe(BF)4$6H2O and P(CH2CH2PPh2)3 [tetraphos, (PP3)] is presented for the highly selective transfer hydrogenation of aromatic, aliphatic, and a,b-unsaturated aldehydes. A wide range of substrates including aldehydes with other reducible functional groups gave the corresponding alcohols in good yields. Formic acid is applied as a cheap, environmentally benign and easy to handle hydrogen source. Notable features of the presented methodology are the fast reactions under mild conditions. Advantageously compared to most transfer hydrogenations, no stoichiometric amounts of base additives are required.

The photoinduced chemoselective transfer hydrogenation of unsaturated carbonyls to allylic alcohols has been accomplished using cluster-based MOFs as bifunctional visible photocatalysts. Assemblies of hexanuclear clusters [Cu6(dmpymt)6] (1, Hdmpymt = 4,6-dimethylpyrimidine-2-thione) as metalloligands with CuI or (Ph3P)CuI yielded cluster-based metal organic frameworks (MOFs) {[Cu6(dmpymt)6]2[Cu2(μ-I)2]4(CuI)2}n (2), {[Cu6(dmpymt)6]2[Cu2(μ-I)2]4}n (3), respectively. Nanoparticles (NPs) of 2 and 3 served both as photosensitizers and photocatalysts for the highly chemoselective reduction of unsaturated carbonyl compounds to unsaturated alcohols with high catalytic activity under blue LED irradiation. The photocatalytic system could be reused for several cycles without any obvious loss of efficiency.
Ambient-pressure highly active hydrogenation of ketones and aldehydes catalyzed by a metal-ligand bifunctional iridium catalyst under base-free conditions in water

A green, efficient, and high active catalytic system for the hydrogenation of ketones and aldehydes to produce corresponding alcohols under atmospheric-pressure H2 gas and ambient temperature conditions was developed by a water-soluble metal–ligand bifunctional catalyst [Cp*Ir(2,2′-bpyO)(OH)][Na] in water without addition of a base. The catalyst exhibited high activity for the hydrogenation of ketones and aldehydes. Furthermore, it was worth noting that many readily reducible or labile functional groups in the same molecule, such as cyan, nitro, and ester groups, remained unchanged. Interestingly, the unsaturated aldehydes can be also selectively hydrogenated to give corresponding unsaturated alcohols with remaining C=C bond in good yields. In addition, this reaction could be extended to gram levels and has a large potential of wide application in future industrial.

The development of cheap and robust heterogeneous catalysts for the Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) reduction is desirable due to the difficulties in product isolation and catalyst recovery associated with the traditional use of homogeneous catalysts for MPV. Herein, we show that microwave heated γ-Al2O3 can be used for the reduction of aldehydes to alcohols. The reaction is efficient and has a broad substrates scope (19 entries). The products can be isolated by simple filtration, and the catalyst can be regenerated. With the use of microwave heating, we can direct the heating to the catalyst rather than to the whole reaction medium. Furthermore, DFT was used to study the reaction mechanism, and we can conclude that a dual-site mechanism is operative where the aldehyde and 2-propoxide are situated on two adjacent Al sites during the reduction. Additionally, volcano plots were used to rationalize the reactivity of Al2O3 in comparison to other metal oxides.
