Aliphatic bromination with tetrabromomethane on immobilized copper complexes
Zelikman, Vladimir M.,Tarkhanova, Irina G.,Buryak, Alexey K.
, p. 60 - 66 (2015)
New catalytic systems with supported bromine- and chlorine-containing copper complexes for selective bromination of alkanes with tetrabromomethane have been proposed. Introduction of donor additives (e.g., low-molecular-weight alcohols) into the reaction increases the activity and stability of these catalysts. The kinetic features of the processes have been investigated. It has been shown that the dependences of the yield of bromodecanes on temperature and concentration of donor additives are both nonmonotonic in character.

Herein we report a practical protocol for the visible-light-induced regiodivergent radical hydropyridylation of unactivated alkenes using pyridinium salts. This approach provides a unified synthetic platform to control the regioselectivity of the synthesis of linear or branched C4-alkylated pyridines. A remarkable selectivity switch from the anti-Markovnikov to the Markovnikov product can be achieved by the addition of tetrabutylammonium bromide. The versatility of this protocol is further demonstrated based on the late-stage functionalization in pharmaceuticals.

Textbook catalytic hydrogenations are typically presented as reactions done in organic solvents and oftentimes under varying pressures of hydrogen using specialized equipment. Catalysts new and old are all used under similar conditions that no longer reflect the times. By definition, such reactions are both environmentally irresponsible and dangerous, especially at industrial scales. We now report on a general method for chemoselective and safe hydrogenation of olefins in water using ppm loadings of palladium from commercially available, inexpensive, and recyclable Pd/C, together with hydrogen gas utilized at 1 atmosphere. A variety of alkenes is amenable to reduction, including terminal, highly substituted internal, and variously conjugated arrays. In most cases, only 500 ppm of heterogeneous Pd/C is sufficient, enabled by micellar catalysis used in recyclable water at room temperature. Comparison with several newly introduced catalysts featuring base metals illustrates the superiority of chemistry in water.
METHOD FOR PRODUCING REDUCED HALIDE COMPOUND HAVING UNDERGONE REDUCTION OF CARBON-CARBON UNSATURATED BOND

Paragraph 0178; 0179; 0180; 0181; 0182; 0183, (2019/11/05)
A halide compound having one or more carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds is catalytically reduced with substantially no dehalogenation to produce a reduced halide compound in which at least one of the one or more unsaturated bonds is reduced. Specifically provided is a method for producing a reduced halide compound including steps of: reacting a nickel compound, a zinc compound, and a borohydride compound in a solvent to obtain a reduction catalyst; and subjecting a halide compound having one or more carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds to catalytic reduction in the presence of the reduction catalyst to reduce at least one of the one or more carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds to thereby obtain a reduced halide compound.

The first general catalytic approach to effecting transfer hydrogenation (TH) of unactivated alkenes using ethanol as the hydrogen source is described. A new NCP-type pincer iridium complex (BQ-NCOP)IrHCl containing a rigid benzoquinoline backbone has been developed for efficient, mild TH of unactivated C-C multiple bonds with ethanol, forming ethyl acetate as the sole byproduct. A wide variety of alkenes, including multisubstituted alkyl alkenes, aryl alkenes, and heteroatom-substituted alkenes, as well as O- or N-containing heteroarenes and internal alkynes, are suitable substrates. Importantly, the (BQ-NCOP)Ir/EtOH system exhibits high chemoselectivity for alkene hydrogenation in the presence of reactive functional groups, such as ketones and carboxylic acids. Furthermore, the reaction with C2D5OD provides a convenient route to deuterium-labeled compounds. Detailed kinetic and mechanistic studies have revealed that monosubstituted alkenes (e.g., 1-octene, styrene) and multisubstituted alkenes (e.g., cyclooctene (COE)) exhibit fundamental mechanistic difference. The OH group of ethanol displays a normal kinetic isotope effect (KIE) in the reaction of styrene, but a substantial inverse KIE in the case of COE. The catalysis of styrene or 1-octene with relatively strong binding affinity to the Ir(I) center has (BQ-NCOP)IrI(alkene) adduct as an off-cycle catalyst resting state, and the rate law shows a positive order in EtOH, inverse first-order in styrene, and first-order in the catalyst. In contrast, the catalysis of COE has an off-cycle catalyst resting state of (BQ-NCOP)IrIII(H)[O(Et)···HO(Et)···HOEt] that features a six-membered iridacycle consisting of two hydrogen-bonds between one EtO ligand and two EtOH molecules, one of which is coordinated to the Ir(III) center. The rate law shows a negative order in EtOH, zeroth-order in COE, and first-order in the catalyst. The observed inverse KIE corresponds to an inverse equilibrium isotope effect for the pre-equilibrium formation of (BQ-NCOP)IrIII(H)(OEt) from the catalyst resting state via ethanol dissociation. Regardless of the substrate, ethanol dehydrogenation is the slow segment of the catalytic cycle, while alkene hydrogenation occurs readily following the rate-determining step, that is, β-hydride elimination of (BQ-NCOP)Ir(H)(OEt) to form (BQ-NCOP)Ir(H)2 and acetaldehyde. The latter is effectively converted to innocent ethyl acetate under the catalytic conditions, thus avoiding the catalyst poisoning via iridium-mediated decarbonylation of acetaldehyde.
A procedure for Appel halogenations and dehydrations using a polystyrene supported phosphine oxide

, p. 799 - 802 (2014/02/14)
The conversion of a commercially available polystyrene supported phosphine oxide into synthetically useful polymeric halophosphonium salts using oxalyl chloride/bromide takes place at room temperature in 5 min and generates only CO and CO2 as by-products. The polymeric halophosphonium salts so obtained are useful reagents for Appel halogenations and other dehydrative coupling reactions. This gives rise to a simple three-step synthesis cycle for Appel and related reactions using a commercially available polymeric phosphine oxide with very simple purification and no phosphorus waste.

The synthesis of glycosyl bromides from 1-O-acetyl sugars using a photo-irradiative phase-vanishing method involving molecular bromine was achieved. A bottom phase of molecular bromine was overlaid first with perfluorohexanes (FC-72), followed by overlaying with ethyl acetate containing a 1-O-acetyl sugar. Upon irradiation, the bromine layer gradually disappeared, leaving two phases. Glycosyl bromide was obtained in good yield from the ethyl acetate phase.

Several important reactions in organic chemistry thrive on stoichiometric formation of phosphine oxides from phosphines. To avoid the resulting burden of waste and purification, cyclic phosphine oxides were evaluated for new catalytic reactions based on in situ regeneration. First, the ease of silane-mediated reduction of a range of cyclic phosphine oxides was explored. In addition, the compatibility of silanes with electrophilic halogen donors was determined for application in a catalytic Appel reaction based on in situ reduction of dibenzophosphole oxide. Under optimized conditions, alcohols were effectively converted to bromides or chlorides, thereby showing the relevance of new catalyst development and paving the way for broader application of organophosphorus catalysis by in situ reduction protocols.

Catalytic phosphorus(V)-mediated nucleophilic substitution reactions: Development of a catalytic appel reaction
Denton, Ross M.,An, Jie,Adeniran, Beatrice,Blake, Alexander J.,Lewis, William,Poulton, Andrew M.
experimental part, p. 6749 - 6767 (2011/10/02)
Catalytic phosphorus(V)-mediated chlorination and bromination reactions of alcohols have been developed. The new reactions constitute a catalytic version of the classical Appel halogenation reaction. In these new reactions oxalyl chloride is used as a consumable stoichiometric reagent to generate the halophosphonium salts responsible for halogenation from catalytic phosphine oxides. Thus, phosphine oxides have been transformed from stoichiometric waste products into catalysts and a new concept for catalytic phosphorus-based activation and nucleophilic substitution of alcohols has been validated. The present study has focused on a full exploration of the scope and limitations of phosphine oxide catalyzed chlorination reactions as well as the development of the analogous bromination reactions. Further mechanistic studies, including density functional theory calculations on proposed intermediates of the catalytic cycle, are consistent with a catalytic cycle involving halo- and alkoxyphosphonium salts as intermediates.
