A new tetradentate cobalt(II)-Schiff base complex has been synthesized via the reaction of the ligand 2,2′-((1E,1′E)-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(azanylylidene))bis(ethan-1-yl-1-ylidene))bis(4-((methyl(phenyl)amino)methyl)phenol) with a stoichiometric amount of cobalt(II) acetate tetrahydrate in absolute ethanol. This cobalt(II) complex has been characterized with the aid of several spectroscopic techniques (FT-IR, UV-Vis, and mass spectrometry) as well as by thermal (TGA and DTA) and elemental analysis. Cyclic voltammetry has been employed to examine the redox behavior of the cobalt(II) complex in dimethylformamide (DMF) containing 0.10 M tetra-n-butylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBABF4). In addition, the electrogenerated cobalt(I) form of the complex has been (a) employed as a catalyst for the reduction of 1-iododecane and (b) compared with the behavior of cobalt(I) salen. Finally, the cobalt(II) complex has been subjected to anodic electropolymerization onto the surface of a glassy carbon electrode in DMF containing 0.10 M tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate (TBAP).

An efficient and easy method for Csp3?Csp3homocoupling was developed using cobalt bromide as catalyst. A series of functionalized alkyl bromides and alkyl chlorides were coupled in high yields under mild conditions. This reaction seems to involve a radical intermediate. (Figure presented.).

The selective scission of chemical bonds is always of great significance in organic chemistry. The cleavage of strong carbon-carbon σ bonds in the unstrained systems remains challenging. Here, we report the selective hydrogenolysis of carbon-carbon σ bonds in primary aliphatic alcohols catalyzed by supported metals under relatively mild conditions. In the case of 1-hexadecanol hydrogenolysis over Ru/TiO2 as a model reaction system, the selective scission of carbon-carbon bonds over carbon-oxygen bonds is observed, resulting in n-pentadecane as the dominant product with a small quantity of n-hexadecane. Theoretical calculations reveal that the 1-hexadecanol hydrogenolysis on flat Ru (0001) undergoes two parallel pathways: i.e. carbon-carbon bond scission to produce n-pentadecane and carbon-oxygen bond scission to produce n-hexadecane. The removal of adsorbed CO on a flat Ru (0001) surface is a crucial step for the 1-hexadecanol hydrogenolysis. It contributes to the largest energy barrier in n-pentadecane production and also retards the rate for n-hexadecane production by covering the active Ru (0001) surface. The knowledge presented in this work has significance not just for a fundamental understanding of strong carbon-carbon σ bond scission but also for practical biomass conversion to fuels and chemical feedstocks.
NMR-based molecular ruler for determining the depth of intercalants within the lipid bilayer. Part III: Studies on keto esters and acids

The development of "molecular rulers" would allow one to quantitatively locate the penetration depth of intercalants within lipid bilayers. To this end, an attempt was made to correlate the 13C NMR chemical shift of polarizable "reporter" carbons (e.g., carbonyls) of intercalants within DMPC liposomal bilayers - with the polarity it experiences, and with its Angstrom distance from the interface. This requires families of molecules with two "reporter carbons" separated by a known distance, residing at various depths/polarities within the bilayer. For this purpose, two homologous series of dicarbonyl compounds, methyl n-oxooctadecanoates and the corresponding n-oxooctadecanoic acids (n = 4-16), were synthesized. To assist in assignment and detection several homologs in each system were prepared 13C-enriched in both carbonyls. Within each family, the number of carbons and functional groups remains the same, with the only difference being the location of the second ketone carbonyl along the fatty acid chain. Surprisingly, the head groups within each family are not anchored near the lipid-water interface, nor are they even all located at the same depth. Nevertheless, using an iterative best fit analysis of the data points enables one to obtain an exponential curve. The latter gives substantial insight into the correlation between polarity (measured in terms of the Reichardt polarity parameter, ET(30)) and penetration depth into the liposomal bilayer. Still missing from this curve are data points in the moderate polarity range.

Hua, Si-Kai,Hu, Qiu-Peng,Ren, Jiangmeng,Zeng, Bu-Bing
, p. 518 - 526 (2013/03/29)
An efficient procedure is described for the oxidative homocoupling of functionalized Grignard reagents using a catalytic amount of dilithium tetrachlorocuprate(II) (CuLi2Cl4) in the presence of pure oxygen gas. This method is applied successfully to a variety of aryl, heteroaryl, alkyl, alkenyl and alkynyl halides, which are converted into the corresponding homocoupled products in good to excellent yields.

Non-activated alkyl electrophiles, including alkyl iodides, bromides, tosylates, mesylates, and even chlorides, underwent copper-catalyzed cross-coupling with aryl boron compounds and alkyl 9-BBN reagents (see scheme; 9-BBN=9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane). The reactions proceed with practically useful reactivities and thus complement palladium- and nickel-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions of alkyl halides.

A fully heterogeneous and highly efficient dual catalyst system for alkane metathesis (AM) has been developed. The system is comprised of an alumina-supported iridium pincer catalyst for alkane dehydrogenation/olefin hydrogenation and a second heterogeneous olefin metathesis catalyst. The iridium catalysts bear basic functional groups on the aromatic backbone of the pincer ligand and are strongly adsorbed on Lewis acid sites on alumina. The heterogeneous systems exhibit higher lifetimes and productivities relative to the corresponding homogeneous systems as catalyst/catalyst interactions and bimolecular decomposition reactions are inhibited. Additionally, using a two-pot device, the supported Ir catalysts and metathesis catalysts can be physically separated and run at different temperatures. This system with isolated catalysts shows very high turnover numbers and is selective for the formation of high molecular weight alkanes.
