Reduced graphene oxide supported copper oxide nanocomposites: An efficient heterogeneous and reusable catalyst for the synthesis of ynones, 1,3-diynes and 1,5-benzodiazepines in one-pot under sustainable reaction conditions

A greener and efficient method for the synthesis of ynones and 1,3-diynes using copper oxide nanoparticles (CuONPs) doped reduced graphene oxide (CuO@rGO) catalyst under palladium, ligand and solvent free conditions have been developed. The catalyst was s

Metallomicelle catalyzed aerobic tandem desilylation/Glaser reaction in water

PEG-grafted nitrogen ligands were synthesized. The corresponding copper complexes serve as metallomicellar nanoreactors for the aerobic tandem desilylation/Glaser coupling of TMS-protected alkynes in water. The protocol is also suitable for base-free homocoupling of terminal alkynes. The metallomicellar catalyst could be recycled 5 times with minor loss of reactivity.

Copper(II)/Palladium(II) catalysed highly selective cross-coupling of terminal alkynes in supercritical carbon dioxide

An efficient protocol for the synthesis of unsymmetrical 1,3-diynes was developed using supercritical carbon dioxide (ScCO2) as the solvent. The direct coupling of two different terminal alkynes is catalysed by a bimetallic catalyst, CuCl2·2H2O/Pd(NH3)4Cl2·H2O, in the presence of the base tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) and O2. In pure ScCO2, our bimetallic catalytic system maintains high activity over a wide substrate scope to provide unsymmetrical 1,3-diynes in good to excellent yields. In the proposed reaction mechanism, the synergistic cooperation between copper(II) and palladium(II) centres is responsible for the superior selectivity of the cross-coupling.

Recyclable Cu/C3N4 composite catalysed homo- and cross-coupling of terminal alkynes under mild conditions

A Cu/C3N4 composite was prepared and utilized as a highly efficient and environmentally friendly catalyst for the homo- & cross-coupling of terminal alkynes. Excellent functional group tolerance and good yields were observed with oxygen as an oxidant in an isopropanol solution (or as additive) under ambient conditions. Furthermore, the composite catalyst shows good recyclability and can be recovered simply and reused several times without significant loss in its catalytic activities.

Highly efficient synthesis of unsymmetrical 1,3-diynes from organoalane reagents and alkynyl bromides mediated by a nickel catalyst

Highly efficient and simple cross-coupling reactions of alkynylbromides with organoalane reagents for the synthesis of unsymmetrical 1,3-diynes derivatives using Ni(OAc)2 (2-5 mol%)/(o-furyl)3P (4-10 mol%) as a catalyst are reported. Excellent yields (up to 94%) were obtained for a wide range of substrates at rt or 60 °C for 2-3 h in Et2O or toluene.

Subnanometer gold clusters on amino-functionalized silica: An efficient catalyst for the synthesis of 1,3-diynes by oxidative alkyne coupling

Subnanometer (d = 0.8 ± 0.2 nm) gold particles homogeneously dispersed on amino-functionalized silica catalyze Glaser-type alkyne coupling, providing corresponding 1,3-diynes under mild conditions. Readily available λ3-iodane PhI(OAc)2 is used as an oxidant and 1,10-phenanthroline is used as an additive. Ten symmetrical 1,3-diynes and three products of heterocoupling containing various functionalities are isolated in high yields. The catalyst can be recycled at least five times, giving consistently high isolated yields and maintaining the size and distribution of gold clusters. This unique combination of stable subnanometer gold clusters and hypervalent iodine thus paves a hitherto unexplored avenue in organic synthesis employing heterogeneous gold catalysis.

Mesoporous Copper/Manganese Oxide Catalyzed Coupling of Alkynes: Evidence for Synergistic Cooperative Catalysis

Copper oxide supported on mesoporous manganese oxide (meso Cu/MnOx) was synthesized by an inverse micelle templated evaporation induced self-assembly procedure. Controlled aggregation of nanoparticles and a monomodal size distribution of mesopores with tunable structural properties were observed. The material possessed superior catalytic activity in the aerobic oxidative coupling of terminal alkynes. Excellent conversion (>99% in most cases) and selectivity were observed in both homocoupling and cross-coupling of alkynes using the optimized reaction conditions. Use of air as the sole oxidant, avoidance of any kind of additives, ease of product separation, great functional group tolerability, wide synthetic scope, and superior reusability (up to eighth cycle) are the notable features of our catalytic protocol. While the reaction mechanism was elucidated, a synergistic cooperative effect between the copper and manganese has been established, which is responsible for the superior catalytic activity. The labile lattice oxygen of the meso Cu/MnOx played a vital role in deprotonation of the alkyne proton, as supported by TPD and TGA studies. Moreover, for the first time, we designed model complexes for the active sites of the catalyst by DFT calculations and provided a qualitative description of the coupling mechanism, which supports the experimental findings.

Synthesis of Unsymmetrical 1,3-Diynes via Pd/Cu-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Terminal Alkynes at Room Temperature

A facile and practical synthetic route of unsymmetrical 1,3-diynes via the PdCl/CuI catalyzed oxidative coupling of two different terminal alkynes has been developed by using 3-(diphenylphosphino)propanoic acid as a ligand in the presence of oxygen. This system is suitable for not only aromatic alkynes but also heteroaromatic and aliphatic alkynes which were transformed into the corresponding unsymmetrical 1,3-diynes in moderate to good yields at room temperature. Moreover, the unsymmetrical 1,3-diynes were also obtained on a multi-gram scale. Mechanistic studies suggest that oxygen plays a key role in the catalytic cycles.

Efficient and environmentally friendly Glaser coupling of terminal alkynes catalyzed by multinuclear copper complexes under base-free conditions

{Cu2+-Co3+-Cu2+} and {Cu2+-Fe3+-Cu2+} heterobimetallic complexes and their catalytic properties

We report on the heterobimetallic complexes {Cu+-Co3+-Cu+} (3), {Cu+-Fe3+-Cu+} (4), {Cu2+-Co3+-Cu2+} (5), and {Cu2+-Fe3+-Cu2+} (6) and show their catalytic applications in the oxidation of hindered phenols and the oxidative coupling of terminal alkynes. The former reaction produces C-C-coupled and dealkylated products, whereas the latter leads to the homo- and heterocoupling of terminal alkynes. The facile redox interconversion between Cu+ and Cu2+ for the secondary metal ions in these heterobimetallic complexes appears to be essential for the observed catalysis, and an important design aspect is better substrate accessibility and the use of molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant. Heterobimetallic complexes {Cu+-Co3+-Cu+} (3), {Cu+-Fe3+-Cu+} (4), {Cu2+-Co3+-Cu2+} (5), and {Cu2+-Fe3+-Cu2+} (6) have been used as catalysts for the oxidation of substituted phenols and the oxidative homo- and heterocoupling of terminal alkynes.
