Differences in the behaviour of the metal-alkyl intermediates involved in the deuterioformylation of styrene in the presence of Co2(CO)8 or Rh4(CO)12 as catalytic precursors, have been readily revealed by 2H NMR analysis of the crude mixtures present after partial conversion.The results clearly demonstrate the value of this simple method for mechanistic studies of catalytic reactions.

A series of neutral and cationic RhIII-hydride and Rh III-ethyl complexes bearing a NHC ligand has been synthesized and evaluated as catalyst precursors for H/D exchange of styrene using CD 3OD as a deuterium source. Various ligands have been examined in order to understand how the stereoelectronic properties can modulate the catalytic activity. Most of these complexes proved to be very active and selective in the vinylic H/D exchange, without deuteration at the aromatic positions, displaying very high selectivity toward the positions. In particular, the cationic complex [RhClH(CH3CN)3(IPr)]CF 3SO3 showed excellent catalytic activity, reaching the maximum attainable degree of vinylic deuteration in only 20 min. By modulation of the catalyst structure, we obtained improved α/β selectivity. Thus, the catalyst [RhClH(κ2-O,N-C9H 6NO)(SIPr)], bearing an 8-quinolinolate ligand and a bulky and strongly electron-donating SIPr as the NHC, showed total selectivity for the β-vinylic positions. This systematic study has shown that increased electron density and steric demand at the metal center can improve both the catalytic activity and selectivity. Complexes bearing ligands with very high steric hindrance, however, proved to be inactive.

Kinetic studies, isotope labeling, and in situ high-resolution mass spectrometry are used to elucidate the mechanism for the catalytic oxidation of styrenes using aqueous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and the cationic palladium(II) compound, [(PBO)Pd(NCMe)2][OTf]2 (PBO = 2-(pyridin-2-yl)benzoxazole). Previous studies have shown that this reaction yields acetophenones with high selectivity. We find that H2O2 binds to Pd(II) followed by styrene binding to generate a Pd-alkylperoxide that liberates acetophenone by at least two competitive processes, one of which involves a palladium enolate intermediate that has not been previously observed in olefin oxidation reactions. We suggest that acetophenone is formed from the palladium enolate intermediate by protonation from H2O2. We replaced hydrogen peroxide with t-butyl hydroperoxide and found that, although the palladium enolate intermediate was observed, it was not on the major product-generating pathway, indicating that the form of the oxidant plays a key role in the reaction mechanism.
Unusual cleavage of the enolsilane C-O bond: Transformation of 2-silyloxy-1,3-dienes into 1,3-dienyl-2-zirconium compounds and their cross-coupling reactions

Aryl enolsilanes and 2-silyloxy-1,3-dienes react with zirconocene to give alkenylzirconium, and novel 1-methylene-2-propenylzirconium compounds which can be used as 2-dienylation reagents. Thus, one-pot coupling of 4-phenyl-1,3-butadienyl-2-zirconocene (2d) with a range of electrophiles including aryl, alkynyl, allyl halides, bromine, iodine and a Michael acceptor occurs regioselectively at the C-2 position in the presence of Pd or Cu catalysts.

The catalytic hydrogenation activity of the readily prepared, coordinatively saturated cobalt(I) precatalyst, (R,R)-(iPrDuPhos)Co(CO)2H ((R,R)-iPrDuPhos = (+)-1,2-bis[(2R,5R)-2,5-diisopropylphospholano]benzene), is described. While efficient turnover was observed with a range of alkenes upon heating to 100 °C, the catalytic performance of the cobalt catalyst was markedly enhanced upon irradiation with blue light at 35 °C. This improved reactivity enabled hydrogenation of terminal, di-, and trisubstituted alkenes, alkynes, and carbonyl compounds. A combination of deuterium labeling studies, hydrogenation of alkenes containing radical clocks, and experiments probing relative rates supports a hydrogen atom transfer pathway under thermal conditions that is enabled by a relatively weak cobalt-hydrogen bond of 54 kcal/mol. In contrast, data for the photocatalytic reactions support light-induced dissociation of a carbonyl ligand followed by a coordination-insertion sequence where the product is released by combination of a cobalt alkyl intermediate with the starting hydride, (R,R)-(iPrDuPhos)Co(CO)2H. These results demonstrate the versatility of catalysis with Earth-abundant metals as pathways involving open-versus closed-shell intermediates can be switched by the energy source.

Precise deuterium incorporation with controllable deuterated sites is extremely desirable. Here, a facile and efficient electrocatalytic deuterodehalogenation of halides using D2O as the deuteration reagent and copper nanowire arrays (Cu NWAs) electrochemically formed in situ as the cathode was demonstrated. A cross-coupling of carbon and deuterium free radicals might be involved for this ipso-selective deuteration. This method exhibited excellent chemoselectivity and high compatibility with the easily reducible functional groups (C=C, C≡C, C=O, C=N, C≡N). The C?H to C?D transformations were achieved with high yields and deuterium ratios through a one-pot halogenation–deuterodehalogenation process. Efficient deuteration of less-active bromide substrates, specific deuterium incorporation into top-selling pharmaceuticals, and oxidant-free paired anodic synthesis of high-value chemicals with low energy input highlighted the potential practicality.

We report an operationally simple protocol for the catalytic α-deuteration of styrenes. This process proceeds via the base-catalyzed reversible addition of methanol to styrenes in DMSO-d6 solvent. The concentration of methanol is shown to be critical for high yields and selectivities over multiple competing side reactions. The synthetic utility of α-deuterated styrenes for accessing deuterium-labeled chiral benzylic stereocenters is demonstrated.
