The continuous flow asymmetric hydrogenation of (hetero)aromatic enamides has been realized using a Rh-Quinaphos catalyst immobilized in a supported ionic liquid phase (SILP) and employing supercritical CO2 modified with toluene (modCO2) as the mobile phase. This approach allows expansion of the scope of the original SILP/scCO2 system to nonvolatile substrates with poor solubility in pure CO2. The potential of a SILP catalyst in combination with modCO2 was demonstrated for an industrial case study using the continuous flow hydrogenation for the synthesis of a key intermediate of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) from AstraZeneca's portfolio. Toluene was selected as the most promising modifier, and the influence of the ratio of modifier to CO2 was evaluated in detail. The catalyst support was found to play a major role for maintaining constant performance and the use of hydrophobic fluorous reverse-phase silica (FRP-SiO2) instead of dehydroxylated silica strongly enhanced the long-term stability under continuous flow operation. Virtually a single enantiopure product was obtained over a prolonged time-on-stream of 90 h (quantitative single-pass conversion, ee > 99%) reaching a total turnover number of 10 300 at a space-time yield (STY) of 24 g L-1 h-1. No metal contamination was detected in the product solutions, indicating effective catalyst retention.

Pd nanoparticle catalyst loading 4.7 wt.percent was prepared by the deposition-precipitation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The crystallite size estimated from the integral width of the highest intensity line using the Scherrer equation was 2.3 nm. Images obtained from TEM showed an equal distribution of the particles size between 0-2 and 2-4 nm, and also a good dispersion of the nanoparticles on the catalyst support. The catalytic activity of this nanocatalyst was studied for racemization reactions of (S)-(-)-1-phenylethylamine. After that, the catalyst was used in the chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of some primary amines. Expressive yields and optical purities were obtained.

The binary phase diagram between (R) and (S) N-acetyl-α-methylbenzylamine has been established by using differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction. Up to 337 K, the two enantiomers form an eutectic mixture without partial solid solution (i.e.

Recent years have witnessed important progress in synthetic strategies exploiting the reactivity of carbocations via photochemical or electrochemical methods. Yet, most of the developed methods are limited in their scope to certain stabilized positions in molecules. Herein, we report a metal-free system based on the iodine (I/III) catalytic manifold, which gives access to carbenium ion intermediates also on electronically disfavored benzylic positions. The unusually high reactivity of the system stems from a complexation of iodine (III) intermediates with BF3. The synthetic utility of our decarboxylative Ritter-type amination protocol has been demonstrated by the functionalization of benzylic as well as aliphatic carboxylic acids, including late-stage modification of different pharmaceutical molecules. Notably, the amination of ketoprofen was performed on a gram scale. Detailed mechanistic investigations by kinetic analysis and control experiments suggest two mechanistic pathways.

Reactions that enable carbon–nitrogen, carbon–oxygen and carbon–carbon bond formation lie at the heart of synthetic chemistry. However, substrate prefunctionalization is often needed to effect such transformations without forcing reaction conditions. The development of direct coupling methods for abundant feedstock chemicals is therefore highly desirable for the rapid construction of complex molecular scaffolds. Here we report a copper-mediated, net-oxidative decarboxylative coupling of carboxylic acids with diverse nucleophiles under visible-light irradiation. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that the relevant chromophore in this reaction is a Cu(ii) carboxylate species assembled in situ. We propose that visible-light excitation to a ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) state results in a radical decarboxylation process that initiates the oxidative cross-coupling. The reaction is applicable to a wide variety of coupling partners, including complex drug molecules, suggesting that this strategy for cross-nucleophile coupling would facilitate rapid compound library synthesis for the discovery of new pharmaceutical agents.

The Ritter reaction used to be one of the most powerful synthetic tools to functionalize alcohols and nitriles, providing valuableN-alkyl amide products. However, this reaction has not been frequently used in modern organic synthesis due to its employment of strongly acidic and harsh reaction conditions, which often lead to complicated side reactions. Herein, we report the development of a new method using salts of the tropylium ion to promote the Ritter reaction. This method works well on a range of alcohol and nitrile substrates, giving the corresponding products in good to excellent yields. This reaction protocol is amenable to microwave and continuous flow reactors, offering an attractive opportunity for further applications in organic synthesis.

Novel palladium nanoparticles stabilized by clinoptilolite as a natural inexpensive zeolite prepared and used for N-formylation and N-acylation of amines at room temperature at environmentally benign reaction conditions in good to excellent yields. Pd (II) was immobilized on the surface of clinoptilolite via facile multi-step amine functionalization to obtain a sustainable, recoverable, and highly active nano-catalyst. The structural and morphological characterizations of the catalyst carried out using XRD, FT-IR, BET and TEM techniques. Moreover, the catalyst is easily recovered using simple filtration and reused for 7 consecutive runs without any loss in activity.

The invention provides a method for preparing a phosphine-phosphoramidite ester ligand from a chiral beta-aminophosphine intermediate and an application of the phosphine-phosphoramidite ester ligand in an asymmetric reaction. Chiral N-(2-(phosphoryl)-1-phenethyl) amide is prepared from the chiral beta-aminophosphine intermediate through an asymmetric hydrogenation reaction of (Z)-(alpha-aryl-beta-phosphoryl) alkenyl amide, and then hydrolysis reduction. The preparation method comprises the following steps: dissolving newly-prepared chlorinated phosphite in toluene, adding a solution formed by dissolving the chiral phosphine-amine compound and triethylamine in toluene into an ice-water bath according to a molar ratio of the chiral phosphine-amine compound to the chlorinated phosphite to the triethylamine of 1: (1-2): (3-5), heating the reaction solution to 18-25 DEG C, stirring and reacting for 10-30 hours, filtering, and carrying out column chromatography to remove the solvent, and recrystallizing to obtain the required phosphine-phosphoramidite ligand. According to the present invention, the asymmetric hydrogenation reaction of the catalyst formed by the ligand and the metal precursor on the double bonds such as C = C, C = N, C = O and the like can achieve the enantioselectivity of 99%; the catalyst is high in activity, and TON reaches up to 10000.

Directed evolution of heme proteins has opened access to new-to-nature enzymatic activity that can be harnessed to tackle synthetic challenges. Among these, reactions resulting from active site iron-nitrenoid intermediates present a powerful strategy to forge C?N bonds with high site- and stereoselectivity. Here we report a biocatalytic, intermolecular benzylic C?H amidation reaction operating at mild and scalable conditions. With hydroxamate esters as nitrene precursors, feedstock aromatic compounds can be converted to chiral amides with excellent enantioselectivity (up to >99 % ee) and high yields (up to 87 %). Kinetic and computational analysis of the enzymatic reaction reveals rate-determining nitrenoid formation followed by stepwise hydrogen atom transfer-mediated C?H functionalization.

Ethylbenzene (EB) oxidation is an important transformation in the chemical industry. Herein, PMo10V2@CTF, a noble metal free electrocatalyst, was used to promote the oxidative upgrading of EB. Under ambient conditions, 65% of EB was converted to three value-added products using water as the oxygen source yielding a total Faraday efficiency of 90.4%. This excellent performance is ascribed to the homogeneous dispersion of PMo10V2and its dual role in the electrocatalytic process.
