Usage

General Description

(Z)-1-Butenylbenzene is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C10H12. It is also known as styrene and is a colorless, oily liquid with a sweet, floral odor. It is commonly used in the production of a variety of products including plastics, resins, and synthetic rubber. Styrene is also found naturally in some plants and is produced by the decomposition of organic matter. It is considered to be a possible human carcinogen and exposure to high levels of styrene can cause respiratory issues and irritation to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes. Additionally, it has been associated with potential reproductive and developmental toxicity. Despite its potential health risks, styrene continues to be widely used in industry for its valuable properties in the production of various materials.

E-Selective Manganese-Catalyzed Semihydrogenation of Alkynes with H2 Directly Employed or In Situ-Generated

Selective semihydrogenation of alkynes with the Mn(I) alkyl catalyst fac-[Mn(dippe)(CO)3(CH2CH2CH3)] (dippe = 1,2-bis(di-iso-propylphosphino)ethane) as a precatalyst is described. The required hydrogen gas is ei

Catalytic Hydrogenation of Alkenes and Alkynes by a Cobalt Pincer Complex: Evidence of Roles for Both Co(I) and Co(II)

The Co(I) complex, [Co(N2)(CyPNP)] (CyPNP = anion of 2,5-bis-(dicyclohexylphosphinomethyl)pyrrole), is active toward the catalytic hydrogenation of terminal alkenes and the semi-hydrogenation of internal alkynes under 2 bar of H2 (g) at room temperature. The products of alkyne semi-hydrogenation are a mixture of E- and Z-alkenes. By contrast, use of the related cobalt(I) precatalyst, [Co(PMe3)(CyPNP)], results in formation of exclusively Z-alkenes. A semi-stable Co(II) species, [CoH(CyPNP)], can also be generated by treatment of degassed solutions of [Co(N2)(CyPNP)] with H2. The CoII-hydride displays activity toward both alkene hydrogenation and isomerization, but its instability hampers implementation as a catalyst. Several species relevant to potential catalytic intermediates have been isolated and detected in solution. These compounds include alkene and alkyne adducts of Co(I) as well as a Co(III) dihydride species. Catalytic results with the compounds examined are most consistent with a process involving shuttling between Co(I) and Co(III) states. However, generation of small quantities of Co(II) during catalytic turnover appears to be responsible for the isomerization observed for alkyne semi-hydrogenation. The interplay of cobalt oxidation states within the same catalyst system is discussed in the context of mechanistic scenarios for catalytic hydrogenation.

Efficient in situ palladium nano catalysis for Z-selective semi transfer hydrogenation of internal alkynes using safer 1, 4-butanediol

Simple and efficient in situ generated palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) in PEG-4OO catalyzed semi transfer hydrogenation of internal alkynes to Z-alkenes with excellent selectivity along with the formation of beneficial γ-butyrolactone as a byproduct using low quantity of safer and attractive 1, 4-butanediol as a hydrogen source was described.
