Polystyrene-supported (catecholato)oxorhenium complexes: Catalysts for alcohol oxidation with DMSO and for deoxygenation of epoxides to alkenes with triphenylphosphine

Polymer-supported catalysts offer practical advantages for organic synthesis, such as improved product isolation, ease of catalyst recycling, and compatibility with parallel solution-phase techniques. We have developed the (carboxypolystyrene-catecholato)rhenium catalyst 2 derived from tyramine (=4-(2-amino-ethyl)phenol), which is effective for alcohol oxidation with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and for epoxide deoxygenation with triphenylphosphine. The supported [Re(catecholato)]catalyst 2 is air- and moisture-stable and can be recovered and used repeatedly without decreasing activity. The procedures work with non-halogenated solvents (toluene). DMSO for Re-catalyzed alcohol oxidation is inexpensive and safer for transport and storage than commonly used peroxide reagents. The oxidation procedure was best suited for aliphatic alcohols, and the mild conditions were compatible with unprotected functional groups, such as those of alkenes, phenols, nitro compounds, and ketones (see Tables 1 and 2). Selective oxidation of secondary alcohols in the presence of primary alcohols was possible, and with longer reaction time, primary alcohols were converted to aldehydes without overoxidation. Epoxides (oxirans) were catalytically deoxygenated to alkenes with this catalyst and Ph3P (see Table 3). Alkyloxiranes were converted to the alkenes with retention of configuration, while partial isomerization was observed in the deoxygenation of cis-stilbene oxide (cis-1.2-diphenyloxirane). These studies indicate that supported [Re(catecholato)] complexes are effective catalysts for O-atom-transfer reactions, and are well suited for applications in organic synthesis.
