Masked o-benzoquinones (MOBs), which were generated in situ from 2-methoxyphenols, underwent Diels-Alder reactions with 1-vinylcyclohexenes to produce the corresponding cycloaddition products, that is, decahydrophenanthrenes along with bicyclo[2.2.2]octenones. In the former case, the MOBs serve as the dienophile, and in the later case, the 1-vinylcyclohexenes act as the dienophile. The obtained bicyclo[2.2.2]octenones could be transformed into the corresponding decahydrophenanthrenes through a Cope rearrangement at 220 °C. Thus, these tandem reactions provide a short and efficient entry to the decahydrophenanthrene skeleton from easily available 2-methoxyphenols. Masked o-benzoquinones (MOBs), which were generated in situ from 2-methoxyphenols, underwent Diels-Alder reactions with 1-vinylcyclohexenes to produce the corresponding decahydrophenanthrenes and bicyclo[2.2.2]octenones. The obtained bicyclo[2.2.2]octenones could be transformed into decahydrophenanthrenes through a Cope rearrangement at 220 °C. Copyright

Capture of the cyclic oxyallyl cation intermediates from the BF3-mediated Nazarov reactions of three allenyl vinyl ketones with various dienes was accomplished by (3+2)- and (4+3)-cycloaddition. The relative amounts of these types of products were dependent on the substitution on the diene, and this could be linked to steric hindrance. Treatment of the (3+2)-cycloaddition products with BF3·Et2O led mainly to decomposition but also to ring-opened molecules and ring-enlarged structures. The computed Gibbs energies of the (3+2)-cycloaddition products, the products of the acid treatment and of some transition states leading to rearranged products were compared.

Two strategies were reported to prevent the deactivation of Frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) in the hydrogenation of terminal alkynes: reducing the Lewis acidity and polymerizing the Lewis acid. A polymeric Lewis acid (P-BPh3) with high stability was designed and synthesized. Excellent conversion (up to 99%) and selectivity can be achieved in the hydrogenation of terminal alkynes catalyzed by P-BPh3. This catalytic system works quite well for different substrates. In addition, the P-BPh3 can be easily recycled.

The (Fmes)BH2·SMe2 reagent (7) reacts sequentially with an acetylene and, e.g., xylylisonitrile in a convenient three-component reaction to give a series of unprecedented dihydro-1,3-azaborole derivatives 16. The tolane-derived example 16a was deprotonated and used as a ligand in organometallic chemistry. Compounds 16 served as the starting materials for the straightforward synthesis of various dihydro-1,3-azaborinine derivatives by treatment with an isonitrile. Several diaryldihydro-1,3-azaboroles showed interesting photophysical properties such as aggregation-induced emission and high fluorescence quantum yields.
Highly selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes with a Pd nanocatalyst modified with sulfide-based solid-phase ligands

Soluble small molecular/polymeric ligands are often used in Pd-catalyzed semi-hydrogenation of alkynes as an efficient strategy to improve the selectivity of targeted alkene products. The use of soluble ligands requires their thorough removal from the reaction products, which adds significant extra costs. In the paper, commercially available, inexpensive, metallic sulfide-based solid-phase ligands (SPL8-4 and SPL8-6) are demonstrated as simple yet high-performance insoluble ligands for a heterogeneous Pd nanocatalyst (Pd@CaCO3) toward the semi-hydrogenation of alkynes. Based on the reactions with a range of terminal and internal alkyne substrates, the use of the solid-phase ligands has been shown to markedly enhance the selectivity of the desired alkene products by efficiently suppressing over-hydrogenation and isomerization side reactions, even during the long extension of the reactions following full substrate conversion. A proper increase in the dosage or a reduction in the average size of the solid-phase ligands enhances such effects. With their insoluble nature, the solid-phase ligands have the distinct advantage in their simple, convenient recycling and reuse while without contaminating the products. A ten-cycle reusability test with the SPL8-4/Pd@CaCO3 catalyst system confirms its well-maintained activity and selectivity over repeated uses. A mechanistic study with x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicates that the solid-phase ligands have electronic interactions with Pd in the supported catalyst, contributing to inhibit the binding and further reaction of the alkene products. This is the first demonstration of solid-phase ligands for highly selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes, which show strong promise for commercial applications.

Gold nanoparticles (NPs) combined with Lewis bases, such as piperazine, were found to perform selective hydrogenation reactions via the heterolytic cleavage of H2. Since gold nanoparticles can be prepared by many different methodologies and using different capping ligands, in this study, we investigated the influence of capping ligands adsorbed on gold surfaces on the formation of the gold-ligand interface. Citrate (Citr), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), and oleylamine (Oley)-stabilized Au NPs were not activated by piperazine for the hydrogenation of alkynes, but the catalytic activity was greatly enhanced after removing the capping ligands from the gold surface by calcination at 400 °C and the subsequent adsorption of piperazine. Therefore, the capping ligand can limit the catalytic activity if not carefully removed, demonstrating the need of a cleaner surface for a ligand-metal cooperative effect in the activation of H2 for selective semihydrogenation of various alkynes under mild reaction conditions.
Creation of Redox-Active PdSx Nanoparticles Inside the Defect Pores of MOF UiO-66 with Unique Semihydrogenation Catalytic Properties

Semihydrogenation of alkynes to produce alkenes is very important in the industry; however, over-hydrogenation heavily complicates the postprocesses, which are highly energy consuming and not environmentally friendly. One of the most efficient pathways to solve this challenging issue is to develop highly selective catalysts that could only hydrogenate alkynes and are inactive in hydrogenation of alkenes. This work presents herein an efficient catalyst, consisting of in situ created PdS0.53 nanoparticles as the redox-active sites inside the defect pores of metal–organic framework UiO-66, which demonstrates very high alkene selectivity (up to 99.5%) in semihydrogenation of easily over-hydrogenated terminal alkynes. In contrast to the traditional catalysts, strict control over the reaction time becomes the nonessential condition because the catalyst system is almost inactive in hydrogenation of alkenes. Therefore, this paradigm work provides a practically applicable pathway for the development of efficient catalysts with unique catalytic properties for selective semihydrogenation reactions.

The selective semi-hydrogenation of terminal alkynes was efficiently performed, under mild reaction conditions (H 2 balloon, 110 °C), promoted by a bimetallic nanocatalyst composed of copper and palladium nanoparticles (5:1 weight ratio) supported on mesostructured silica (MCM-48). The Cu-PdNPS@MCM-48 catalyst, which demonstrated to be highly chemoselective towards the alkyne functionality, is readily prepared from commercial materials and can be recovered and reused after thermal treatment followed by reduction under H 2 atmosphere.

Pyrolysis of Au(OAc)3 in the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline over TiO2 furnishes a highly active and selective Au nanoparticle (NP) catalyst embedded in a nitrogen-doped carbon support, Au@N-doped carbon/TiO2 catalyst. Parameters such as pyrolysis temperature, type of support, and nitrogen ligands as well as Au/ligand molar ratios were systematically investigated. Highly selective hydrogenation of numerous structurally diverse alkynes proceeded in moderate to excellent yield under mild conditions. The high selectivity toward the industrially important alkene substrates, functional group tolerance, and the high recyclability makes the catalytic system unique. Both high activity and selectivity are correlated with a frustrated Lewis pairs interface formed by the combination of gold and nitrogen atoms of N-doped carbon that, according to density functional theory calculations, can serve as a basic site to promote the heterolytic activation of H2 under very mild conditions. This "fully heterogeneous" and recyclable gold catalyst makes the selective hydrogenation process environmentally and economically attractive.

Promoters are ubiquitous in industrial heterogeneous catalysts. The wider roles of promoters in accelerating catalysis and/or controlling selectivity are, however, not well understood. A model system has been developed where a heterobimetallic active site comprising an active metal (Rh) and a promoter ion (Ga) is preassembled and delivered onto a metal-organic framework (MOF) support, NU-1000. The Rh-Ga sites in NU-1000 selectively catalyze the hydrogenation of acyclic alkynes to E-alkenes. The overall stereoselectivity is complementary to the well-known Lindlar's catalyst, which generates Z-alkenes. The role of the Ga in promoting this unusual selectivity is evidenced by the lack of semihydrogenation selectivity when Ga is absent and only Rh is present in the active site.
