The cyclopentadienyl molybdenum carbonyl complexes [(η5-C5H4R)Mo(CO)2(η3-C3H5)] and [(η5-C5H5)Mo(CO)3(CH2R)] (R = H, COOH) have been shown to promote acid-catalysed reactions in liquid phase, under moderate conditions. The catalytic alcoholysis of styrene oxide with ethanol at 35 °C gave 2-ethoxy-2-phenylethanol in 100% yield within 30 min for the dicarbonyl complexes and 3-6 h for the tricarbonyl complexes. Steady catalytic performances were observed in consecutive runs with the same catalytic solution, suggesting fairly good catalytic stability. In the second acid-catalysed reaction studied, the isomerization of α-pinene oxide at 55 °C gave campholenic aldehyde and trans-carveol in a total yield of up to 86% at 100% conversion. Chemoselectivity is shown to be solvent dependent.

α-Pinene oxide, an oxygenated derivative of α-pinene, can be converted into various valuable substances useful as flavour, fragrance and pharmaceutical compounds. Campholenic aldehyde is one of the most desired products of α-pinene oxide isomerization being a valuable intermediate for the production of sandalwood-like fragrances. Iron modified zeolites Beta-75 and ZSM-5, mesoporous material MCM-41, silica and alumina were prepared by two methods (impregnation and solid-state ion exchange) and tested for selective preparation of campholenic aldehyde by isomerization of α-pinene oxide. The characterization of tested catalyst was carried out using scanning electron microscope analysis, nitrogen adsorption measurements, pyridine adsorption-desorption with FTIR, X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements, XPS-analysis, 29Si MAS NMR and 27Al MAS NMR and X-ray diffraction. The isomerization of α-pinene oxide was carried out in toluene as a solvent at 70 C. The main properties influencing the activity and the selectivity are the acidic and structural properties of the tested catalysts. The highest selectivity of 66% was achieved at complete conversion of α-pinene oxide with Fe-MCM-41.

Vanadium-containing nickel phosphate molecular sieves (V-VSB-5) were applied as heterogeneous catalysts for the liquid phase oxidation of α-pinene with molecular oxygen at 60 °C. It has been found that the vanadium content in V-VSB-5 materials affects the

The Lewis/Br?nsted catalytic properties of the Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) nodes can be tuned by simply controlling the solvent employed in the synthetic procedure. In this work, we demonstrate that Hf-MOF-808 can be prepared from a material with a higher amount of Br?nsted acid sites,viamodulated hydrothermal synthesis, to a material with a higher proportion of unsaturated Hf Lewis acid sites,viamodulated solvothermal synthesis. The Lewis/Br?nsted acid properties of the resultant metallic clusters have been studied by different characterization techniques, including XAS, FTIR and NMR spectroscopies, combined with a DFT study. The different nature of the Hf-MOF-808 materials allows their application as selective catalysts in different target reactions requiring Lewis, Br?nsted or Lewis-Br?nsted acid pairs.

Herein, we report a simple route for the synthesis of phosphonate functionalized Br?nsted solid acid carbon spheres as heterogeneous catalyst for the valorization of bio-derived a-pinene oxide. The Br?nsted acidity was generatedviatwo steps; hydrothermal carbonization of sugar to produce carbon microspheres followed by PCl3treatment to form phosphonate functionalized carbon. The presence of phosphonate was confirmed by CP-MAS31P and13C NMR. In addition, the presence of the P-C, O-P-C and HO-P?O bonds of the phosphonate group was confirmed by FT-IR,31P NMR, and XPS. SEM-EDAX analysis revealed the presence of a phosphorus content of ~1.71 wt% on the surface of the catalyst while elemental mapping showed a uniform dispersion of phosphorus over the carbon spheres. The as-synthesized Br?nsted solid acid catalyst was used for the isomerization of a-pinene oxide which gave 100% conversion with 67%trans-carveol selectivity in highly polar basic solvent in 1 h reaction time. Also, the catalyst showed good recyclable activity even after five cycles.

The isomerization of α-pinene oxide in the presence of Cs2.5H0.5PW12O40 (CsPW) heteropolysalt as solid acid catalyst is reported. The reactions were performed in various solvents, which allowed to obtain trans-carveol, trans-sobrerol and pinol in 60–80% yield each, which exceed the yields reported so far. The CsPW catalyst could be recovered and reused without loss of its activity and selectivity.

Pauson-Khand reactions (PKR) with concomitant C?O bond cleavage have been developed for construction of 5,5- 5,6- and 5,7-bicyclic ring systems bearing complex stereochemistry. The chemistry generates intermolecular PKR-type products in an absolute regio- and stereochemical control which is hardly achievable through real intermolecular Pauson-Khand reactions. A mechanism for this Pauson-Khand reaction has been proposed based on deuterium labelling experiments. (Figure presented.).
Chiral Imidazo[1,5- a]pyridine-Oxazolines: A Versatile Family of NHC Ligands for the Highly Enantioselective Hydrosilylation of Ketones

Herein we report the synthesis and application of a versatile class of N-heterocyclic carbene ligands based on an imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-3-ylidine backbone that is fused to a chiral oxazoline auxiliary. The key step in the synthesis of these ligands involves the installation of the oxazoline functionality via a microwave-assisted condensation of a cyano-azolium salt with a wide variety of 2-amino alcohols. The resulting chiral bidentate NHC-oxazoline ligands form stable complexes with rhodium(I) that are efficient catalysts for the enantioselective hydrosilylation of structurally diverse ketones. The corresponding secondary alcohols are isolated in good yields (typically >90%) with good to excellent enantioselectivities (80-93% ee). The reported hydrosilylation occurs at ambient temperatures (40 °C), with excellent functional group tolerability. Even ketones bearing heterocyclic substituents (e.g., pyridine or thiophene) or complex organic architectures are hydrosilylated efficiently, which is discussed further in this report.

Selectivity between 1,2 and 1,4 addition of a nucleophile to an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound has classically been modified by the addition of stoichiometric additives to the substrate or reagent to increase their “hard” or “soft” character. Here, we demonstrate a conceptually distinct approach that instead relies on controlling the coordination sphere of a catalyst with visible light. In this way, we bias the reaction down two divergent pathways, giving contrasting products in the catalytic hydroboration of α,β-unsaturated ketones. This includes direct access to previously elusive cyclic enolborates, via 1,4-selective hydroboration, providing a straightforward and stereoselective route to rare syn-aldol products in one-pot. DFT calculations and mechanistic experiments confirm two different mechanisms are operative, underpinning this unusual photocontrolled selectivity switch.

The chemoselective reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones by use of an economic and readily available Mg catalyst has been developed. Excellent yields for a wide range of ketones have been achieved under mild reaction conditions, short times, and low catalyst loadings (0.2-0.5 mol %).
