We describe an efficient protocol for the regioselective isomerization of terminal alkenes employing a previously described bifunctional Ir-based PC(sp3)complex (4) possessing a hemilabile sidearm. The isomerization, catalyzed by 4, results in a one-step shift of the double bond in good to excellent selectivity, and good yield. Our mechanistic studies revealed that the reaction is driven by the stepwise migratory insertion of Ir?H species into the terminal double bond/β-H elimination events. However, the selectivity of the reaction is controlled by dissociation of the hemilabile sidearm, which acts as a selector, favoring less sterically hindered substrates such as terminal alkenes; importantly, it prevents recombination and further isomerization of the internal ones.

Positional and stereochemical selectivity in the isomerization of terminal alkenes to internal alkenes is observed using the cis-Mo(CO)4(PPh3)2 precatalyst. A p-toluenesulfonic acid (TsOH) cocatalyst is essential for catalyst activity. Various functionalized terminal alkenes have been converted to the corresponding 2-alkenes, generally favoring the Z isomer with selectivity as high as 8:1 Z:E at high conversion. Interrogation of the catalyst initiation mechanism by 31P NMR reveals that cis-Mo(CO)4(PPh3)2 reacts with TsOH at elevated temperatures to yield a phosphine-ligated Mo hydride (MoH) species. Catalysis may proceed via 2,1-insertion of a terminal alkene into a MoH group and stereoselective β-hydride elimination to yield the (Z)-2-alkene.

Isothiourea HBTM-2.1 promotes the catalytic asymmetric α- functionalization of 3-alkenoic acids through formal [2 + 2] cycloadditions with N-tosyl aldimines and formal [4 + 2] cycloadditions with either 4-aryltrifluoromethyl enones or N-aryl-N-aroyl diazenes, providing useful synthetic building blocks in good yield and with excellent enantiocontrol (up to >99% ee). Stereodefined products are amenable to further synthetic elaboration through manipulation of the olefinic functionality.

An efficient cyclization of alkyne-acids to enol-lactones catalyzed by anticancer platinum(ii) and platinum(iv) compounds is described. These compounds are not only DNA-binding complexes; they can also catalyze reactions in solvents such as acetone, methanol, water or blood plasma.

The anticancer platinum complexes here described react with organic substrates (such as acids, alkenes, alkynes) and catalyze transformations that can occur in biomolecules which contain unsaturated functions. We have analyzed the role of the platinum complexes in the observed reactions and studied the progress of the detected transformations upon variation of the reaction conditions.

A supramolecular catalyst for regioselective hydroformylation of unsaturated carboxylic acids
Smejkal, Tomas,Breit, Bernhard
, p. 311 - 315 (2008/09/19)
(Chemical Equation Presented) The quest to capture the catalytic power of enzymes is one of the great challenges of modern chemistry. A novel system inspired by the principles of enzymatic catalysis combines recognition of the substrate and transition-metal catalysis (see scheme; Do = donor, FG = functional group) and mimics enzyme properties - high efficiency, substrate selectivity, and reaction-site selectivity.

A cyclic transition structure for the deprotonation of enoates was proposed to rationalize the geometry of the deconjugated olefin and the substrate reactivity patterns.
Activation of C-O and C-N Bonds in Allylic Alcohols and Amines by Palladium Complexes Promoted by CO2. Synthetic Applications to Allylation of Nucleophiles, Carbonylation, and Allylamine Disproportionation

The direct activation of the C-O bonds in allylic alcohols catalyzed by palladium complexes has been accelerated by carrying out the reactions under CO2. On reaction with diethylamine, allyl alcohol can be converted into N,N-diethylallylamine in the presence of palladium complexes at room temperature under normal pressure of carbon dioxide. Allylation of various carbon nucleophiles such as β-keto esters and β-diketones can be achieved by using allylic alcohols directly in the presence of palladium complexes and CO2. Direct carbonylation of allylic alcohols into unsaturated carboxylic acids can be catalyzed by palladium complexes under the pressure of CO and CO2. Disproportionation of diallylamine into triallylamine and allylamine is also catalyzed by palladium complexes in the presence of CO2. On the basis of studies on the behavior of η3-allylpalladium hydrogencarbonate complexes with the nucleophiles, mechanisms are proposed to account for the palladium-catalyzed allylation processes influenced by CO2.
The Thermal Decomposition of Diazirines: 3-(3-Methyldiazirin-3-yl)propan-1-ol and 3-(3-Methyldiazirin-3-yl)propanoic Acid

, p. 661 - 667 (2007/10/02)
The thermolyses of 3-(3-methyldiazirin-3-yl)propan-1-ol (1) and 3-(3-methyldiazirin-3-yl)propanoic acid (2) have been studied in solution over the temperature range 96-125 deg C.The reactions are unimolecular and fit linear Arrhenius plots with k(1)=1013.85+/-0.69exp-1/RT>s-1 and k(2)=1012.38+/-0.43exp-1/RT>s-1.The major products are the alkenes derived from the corresponding carbenes MeC2.CH2CH2CH2OH (3) and MeC2.CH2CH2CO2H (4).The new rate data, taken together with previous work, tend to confirm that diazirine thermolysis involves ring opening to a "complex" followed either by nitrogen loss or by isomerization to a diazo compound.Whereas (1) gives no product of closure onto oxygen, the acid (2) affords about 5percent γ-valerolactone.
