Smuts, Hanna-Mari,Luckay, Robert C.
, p. 497 - 511 (2017)
We have synthesized two ditopic ligands for selective extraction of copper(II) nitrate. We also synthesized one cation-only binding analog for comparison. All three ligands were characterized by conventional techniques. Competitive two-phase metal ion sol
METHOD OF PREPARING POLY(ALKYLENE CARBONATE) VIA COPOLYMERIZATION OF CARBON DIOXIDE/EPOXIDE IN THE PRESENCE OF NOVEL COMPLEX
-
Paragraph 270 - 273, (2014/10/04)
Provided is a method of preparing poly(alkylene carbonate) using a molecular weight regulator in a process of preparing a copolymer of carbon dioxide/epoxide using a novel complex synthesized from salen-type ligand including a quaternary ammonium salt as a catalyst. According to the present invention, even though the molecular weight regulator is used, an activity of the catalyst may be stably maintained, whereby the low molecular weight of poly(alkylene carbonate) having a desirable level may be effectively provided. In addition, it is expected that since the novel complex as the catalyst of the present invention has a simple structure as compared to the existing copolymerization catalyst, due to the economical preparation cost thereof, the novel complex may be effectively applied to a large-scale commercial process.

Phenolic lignin model monomers and dimers representing the primary substructural units of lignin were successfully oxidized to benzoquinones in high yield with molecular oxygen using new Co-Schiff base catalysts bearing a bulky heterocyclic nitrogen base as a substituent. This is the first example of a catalytic system able to convert both S and G lignin model phenols in high yield, a process necessary for effective use of lignin as a chemical feedstock.

A series of unsymmetric salen ligands derived from 1,2-diaminocyclohexane bearing an appended Lewis base on the three-position of one aromatic ring were synthesized by the reaction of various functional salicyaldehydes with the condensation product of 1,2-diaminocyclohexane mono(hydrogen chloride) and 3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylaldehyde. These ligands in conjunction with Ti(O iPr)4 exhibited excellent activity in catalyzing the cyanosilylation of aldehydes with trimethylsilyl cyanide (TMSCN) at mild conditions. The highest activity was observed in the catalyst system with regard to the salen ligand bearing a diethylamino group, which proved to be active even at a high [aldehyde]/[catalyst] ratio up to 50000. In a low catalyst loading of 0.05 mol%, the quantitative conversion of benzaldehyde to the corresponding cyanosilylation product was found within 10 min. at ambient temperature. An intramolecularly cooperative catalysis was proposed wherein the central metal Ti(iv) is suggested to play a role of Lewis acid to activate aldehydes while the appended Lewis base to activate TMSCN.
Mechanism and scope of salen bifunctional catalysts in asymmetric aldehyde and α-ketoester alkylation

Metal complexes of C2-symmetric Lewis acid/Lewis base salen ligands provide bifunctional activation resulting in rapid rates in the enantioselective addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes (up to 92% ee). Further experiments probed the reactivity of the individual Lewis acid and Lewis base components of the catalyst and established that both moieties are essential for asymmetric catalysis. These catalysts are also effective in the asymmetric addition of diethylzinc to α-ketoesters. This finding is significant because α-ketoesters alone serve as their own ligands to accelerate racemic 1,2-carbonyl addition of Et2Zn and racemic carbonyl reduction. The latter proceeds via a metalloene pathway, and often accounts for the predominant product. Singular Lewis acid catalysts do not accelerate enantioselective 1,2-addition over these two competing paths. The bifunctional amino salen catalysts, however, rapidly provide enantioenriched 1,2-addition products in excellent yield, complete chemoselectivity, and good enantioselectivity (up to 88% ee). A library of the bifunctional amino salens was synthesized and evaluated in this reaction. The utility of the α-ketoester method has been demonstrated in the synthesis of an opiate antagonist.
Salen-derived catalysts containing secondary basic groups in the addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes
DiMauro, Erin F.,Kozlowski, Marisa C.
, p. 3053 - 3056 (2007/10/03)
matrix presented A set of modular bifunctional salen catalysts which contain Lewis acid and Lewis base activating groups is described. These groups can be altered independently to control nucleophilic and electrophilic activation of the reacting substrates. These salen-derived catalysts show enhanced reactivity in the addition of diethylzinc to aldehydes with respect to most other salen, amino alcohol, and diamine derived catalysts and reactivity comparable to that of Ti complexes of bis-sulfonamides and diols.
