N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyzed Ester Synthesis from Organic Halides through Incorporation of Oxygen Atoms from Air

Oxygenation reactions with molecular oxygen (O2) as the oxygen source provides a green and straightforward strategy for the construction of O-containing compounds. Demonstrated here is a novel N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed oxidative transformation of simple and readily available organic halides into valuable esters through the incorporation of O-atoms from O2. Mechanistic studies prove that the deoxy Breslow intermediate generated in situ is oxidized to a Breslow intermediate for further transformation by this oxidative protocol. This method broadens the field of NHC catalysis and promotes oxygenation reactions with O2.

Alkali-metal organomagnesiate complexes as catalysts for highly chemoselective crossed-Tishchenko reactions

Five new heterobimetallic magnesiates bearing bidentate dianionic pyrrolyl ligands have been synthesized through co-complexation with alkali-metal reagents and di-n-butylmagnesium. Single-crystal X-ray structural analysis of these complexes revealed a variety of intriguing bonding modes. These alkali-metal (Li, Na, and K) organomagnesiates were utilized as catalysts for cross-coupling Tishchenko reactions with two different aldehydes. The sodium alkyl magnesiate complex {nBuMg[2-(Me3CNCH2)C4H3N]Na(Et2O)}8(3) was identified as a competent catalyst, as it exhibited higher catalytic activities and chemoselectivity under mild conditions.

Pt, Pd and Au nanoparticles supported on a DNA-MMT hybrid: Efficient catalysts for highly selective oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes, acids and esters

Novel DNA-MMT hybrid supported metal nanoparticle catalysts, such as Pt/DNA-MMT, Pd/DNA-MMT, Au/DNA-MMT, were prepared for application in highly selective aerobic oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes, acids and esters, respectively. Taking advantage of the water-soluble reversibility of these catalysts, all the transformations could be performed smoothly in water and reuse of the catalysts has also been accomplished by a very simple phase separation process.

Dimethylbut-2-ynedioate mediated esterification of acids via sp3 C-N bond cleavage of benzylic tertiary amines

A straightforward synthetic transformation of tertiary amines to the esterification of equimolar amounts of acids was demonstrated in this manuscript. The present protocol can be regarded as a straightforward synthetic transformation of tertiary amines to the esterification of equimolar amounts of acid. Moreover, the reaction is fundamentally new chemistry for the sp 3 C-N bond cleavage coupled with esterification. The esterification reaction conditions are very mild and functional group-tolerated, such as hydrosilanes, alcohols, phenol, and amino acids. A mechanism is proposed in which the tertiary amine reacts with dimethyl but-2-ynedioate to form zwitterionic salt, and then the zwitterionic intermediate subsequently accept hydrogen to assist the nucleophilic attack of oxygen atom of carboxyl group at the benzyl group of tertiary amine, while a separate reaction pathway leads to esterification.

Dehydrogenation of alcohols under ambient atmosphere by a recyclable sol-gel encaged iridium pincer catalyst

We demonstrate that a sol-gel entrapped iridium-pincer catalyst 1 is capable of promoting acceptorless dehydrogenation of primary and secondary alcohols. Although the dehydrogenations by the non-heterogenized catalyst are faster than by the sol-gel encaged complex, recyclability and significant stabilization of the organometallic species toward non-inert conditions represent a clear advantage from the environmental and practical points of view.
