Pd Nanoparticles Stabilized on the Cross-Linked Melamine-Based SBA-15 as a Catalyst for the Mizoroki–Heck Reaction

Mesoporous SBA-15 silicate with a high surface area was prepared by a hydrothermal method, successively modified by organic melamine ligands and then used for deposition of Pd nanoparticles onto it. The synthesized materials were characterized with infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), nitrogen physisorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-OES). The catalyst was effectively used in the Mizoroki–Heck coupling reaction of various reactants in the presence of an organic base giving the desired products in a short reaction time and with small catalysts loadings. The reaction parameters such as the base type, amounts of catalyst, solvents, and the temperature were optimized. The catalyst was easily recovered and reused at least seven times without significant activity losses. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Heterobimetallic Pd/Mn and Pd/Co complexes as efficient and stereoselective catalysts for sequential Cu-free Sonogashira coupling–alkyne semi-hydrogenation reactions

A series of heterobimetallic PdII/MII complexes (MII = Mn, Co) were synthesised and tested as precatalysts for sequential Sonogashira coupling–alkyne semi-hydrogenation reactions to form Z-aryl alkenes. The carbometalated heterobimetallic PdII/CoII complex CoPdL3′ demonstrated an apparent cooperative effect compared to the corresponding monometallic counterparts. This compound was identified as a potent single-molecule catalyst for the one-pot Cu-free Sonogashira coupling of aryl bromides with terminal alkynes followed by chemo- and stereoselective semi-hydrogenation of the alkyne intermediate using NH3·BH3 as a hydrogen source. Furthermore, different aromatic substrates have been tested to show the generality of the reaction for the synthesis of Z-alkenes, including biologically active combretastatin A-4. In addition, the homogeneous nature of the catalytically active species was demonstrated.

Electrochemical Proton Reduction over Nickel Foam for Z-Stereoselective Semihydrogenation/deuteration of Functionalized Alkynes

Selective reduction strategies based on abundant-metal catalysts are very important in the production of chemicals. In this paper, a method for the electrochemical semihydrogenation and semideuteration of alkynes to form Z-alkenes was developed, using a simple nickel foam as catalyst and H3O+ or D3O+ as sources of hydrogen or deuterium. Good yields and excellent stereoselectivities (Z/E up to 20 : 1) were obtained under very mild reaction conditions. The reaction proceeded with terminal and nonterminal alkynes, and also with alkynes containing easily reducible functional groups, such as carbonyl groups, as well as aryl chlorides, bromides, and even iodides. The nickel-foam electrocatalyst could be recycled up to 14 times without any change in its catalytic properties.

Synthesis of N-Heterocyclic Carbine Silver(I) and Palladium(II) Complexes with Acylated Piperazine Linker and Catalytic Activity in Three Types of C—C Coupling Reactions

Two bis-imidazolium salts LH2·Cl2 and LH2·(PF6)2 with acylated piperazine linker and two N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) silver(I) and palladium(II) complexes [L2Ag2](PF6)2 (1) and [L2Pd2Cl4] (2) were prepared. The crystal structures of LH2·Cl2 and 1 were confirmed by X-ray analysis. In 1, one 26-membered macrometallocycle was generated through two silver(I) ions and two bidentate ligands L. The catalytic activity of 2 was investigated in Sonogashira, Heck-Mizoroki and Suzuki-Miyaura reactions. The results displayed that these C—C coupling reactions can be smoothly carried out under the catalysis of 2.

Structural Effect of Pincer Pd(II)–ONO Complexes Modified with Acylthiourea on Sizes of the In Situ Generated Pd Nanoparticles During Heck Coupling Reaction

Abstract: The Pd nanoparticles generated in situ from Pd–pincer complexes catalyzed Heck coupling reaction. For this purpose, new Pd(II)–ONO pincer complexes (1–4) containing acylthiourea ancillary ligand were obtained by treating [Pd(ONO)(CH3CN)] with the respective N-substituted carbamothioyl benzamide ligand (L1–L4). Formation of these complexes was confirmed by UV–Visible, FT-IR, NMR and mass spectroscopic techniques. The sizes of in situ formed Pd nanoparticles were greatly affected by the substituent in ancillary ligand, which in turn influenced their catalytic activity towards Heck coupling reaction. The in situ formed Pd nanoparticles during Heck reaction were removed from the reaction medium and analyzed using HR-TEM to estimate the sizes of the Pd nanoparticles. Complex [Pd(ONO)((N-benzylcarbamothioyl)benzamide)] (1) which does not possess any substituent on the benzyl moiety of acylthiourea produced the smallest Pd nanoparticles with the average particle size of 3.7?nm. Hence, complex 1 showed the utmost catalytic activity. With complex 1, 51–99% of conversion was observed during Heck coupling reaction of styrene with various aryl halides. XPS results confirmed that the recovered black particles were Pd(0). A reasonable recyclability results were achieved by these in situ generated Pd nanoparticles.

A new Pd(II)-supported catalyst on magnetic SBA-15 for C-C bond formation via the Heck and Hiyama cross-coupling reactions

Magnetic mesoporous silica composite (MNP@SiO2-SBA) was obtained via embedding magnetite nanoparticles between SBA-15 channels. It was silylated with N-(3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl)picolinamide (TMS-PCA) and then complexed with Pd(II). The obtained supported Pd(II) catalyst (MNP@SiO2-SBA-PCA) was characterized by conventional methods. The prepared magnetic catalyst showed high activity in the Heck and Hiyama reactions under optimal reaction conditions, including solvent, amount of catalyst, base, and temperature. Aryl bromides and iodides showed better results than aryl chlorides, and the catalyst exhibited noticeable stability and reused several times.

A New Nitrogen Pd(II) Complex Immobilized on Magnetic Mesoporous Silica: A Retrievable Catalyst for C–C Bond Formation

Abstract: A new nitrogen ligand, i.e. 1,3-di-(o-aminophenoxy)-2-propyl propargyl ether (DPPE), has been synthesized and characterized. Magnetic mesoporous silica composite (MNP@SiO2-SBA) was obtained via embedding magnetite nano-particles (MNPs) between SBA-15 channels. DPPE palladium dichloride (MNP@SiO2-SBA-DPPE-Pd(II)) was then prepared via click chemistry and fully characterized. The activity and recyclability of supported magnetic Pd(II) catalyst were evaluated in Heck coupling reaction after optimizing the optimal reaction conditions including solvent, amount of catalyst, base and temperature. Aryl iodides and aryl bromides showed enhanced activity compared to those of aryl chlorides in the Heck reaction. The catalyst was easily separated magnetically, reused in five runs sequentially, and no significant loss of activity was observed. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Ligand-free (: Z)-selective transfer semihydrogenation of alkynes catalyzed by in situ generated oxidizable copper nanoparticles

Herein, we present (Z)-selective transfer semihydrogenation of alkynes based on in situ generated CuNPs in the presence of hydrogen donors, such as ammonia-borane and a green protic solvent. This environmentally friendly method is characterized by operational simplicity combined with high stereo- and chemoselectivity and functional group compatibility. Auto-oxidation of CuNPs after the completion of a semihydrogenation reaction results in the formation of a water-soluble ammonia complex, so that the catalyst may be reused several times by simple phase-separation with no need for any special regeneration processes. Formed NH4B(OR)4 can be easily transformed back into ammonia-borane or into boric acid. In addition, a one-pot tandem sequence involving a Suzuki reaction followed by semihydrogenation was presented, which allows minimization of chemical waste production.

An Amine-Assisted Ionic Monohydride Mechanism Enables Selective Alkyne cis-Semihydrogenation with Ethanol: From Elementary Steps to Catalysis

The selective synthesis of Z-alkenes in alkyne semihydrogenation relies on the reactivity difference of the catalysts toward the starting materials and the products. Here we report Z-selective semihydrogenation of alkynes with ethanol via a coordination-induced ionic monohydride mechanism. The EtOH-coordination-driven Cl- dissociation in a pincer Ir(III) hydridochloride complex (NCP)IrHCl (1) forms a cationic monohydride, [(NCP)IrH(EtOH)]+Cl-, that reacts selectively with alkynes over the corresponding Z-alkenes, thereby overcoming competing thermodynamically dominant alkene Z-E isomerization and overreduction. The challenge for establishing a catalytic cycle, however, lies in the alcoholysis step; the reaction of the alkyne insertion product (NCP)IrCl(vinyl) with EtOH does occur, but very slowly. Surprisingly, the alcoholysis does not proceed via direct protonolysis of the Ir-C(vinyl) bond. Instead, mechanistic data are consistent with an anion-involved alcoholysis pathway involving ionization of (NCP)IrCl(vinyl) via EtOH-for-Cl substitution and reversible protonation of Cl- ion with an Ir(III)-bound EtOH, followed by β-H elimination of the ethoxy ligand and C(vinyl)-H reductive elimination. The use of an amine is key to the monohydride mechanism by promoting the alcoholysis. The 1-amine-EtOH catalytic system exhibits an unprecedented level of substrate scope, generality, and compatibility, as demonstrated by Z-selective reduction of all alkyne classes, including challenging enynes and complex polyfunctionalized molecules. Comparison with a cationic monohydride complex bearing a noncoordinating BArF- ion elucidates the beneficial role of the Cl- ion in controlling the stereoselectivity, and comparison between 1-amine-EtOH and 1-NaOtBu-EtOH underscores the fact that this base variable, albeit in catalytic amounts, leads to different mechanisms and consequently different stereoselectivity.

The method comprises the following steps: TEOA, NaOAc, a catalyst, water and alkyne are subjected to a reduction reaction of alkyne in an organic solvent to react to form cis-olefin. Ligand t-Bu2 PCl, The catalyst, water and the alkyne are subjected to a reduction reaction of alkyne in an organic solvent to react to form a trans-olefin. The reactor for the reduction reaction is a sealed pressure-resistant reactor, the temperature of the reduction reaction is 120 - 150 °C, and the reduction reaction time is 20 - 40h. The amount of the catalyst used is 5 - 20% of the molar amount of alkyne, and the amount of water is 10 - 50 times of the molar amount of alkyne. The ligand is used in an amount 2-5 times the molar amount of catalyst. In the invention, the catalyst system has extremely high chemical reaction and stereoselectivity, and cis or trans olefinic products can be synthesized at high yield. The catalytic system has strong universality on substrates, and alkynes containing various functional groups can efficiently carry out high-selectivity reduction reaction.
