A well-defined and very active single-component manganese(II) catalyst system for the hydrosilylation of aldehydes and ketones is presented. First, the reaction of 5-(2,4,6-iPr3C6H2)-2-[N-(2,6-iPr2C6H3)formimino]pyrrolyl potassium (KL) and [MnCl2(Py)2] afforded the binuclear 2-iminopyrrolyl manganese(II) pyridine chloride complex [Mn2{κ2N,N′-5-(2,4,6-iPr3C6H2)-NC4H2-2-C(H)═N(2,6-iPr2C6H3)}2(Py)2(μ-Cl)2] 1. Subsequently, the alkylation reaction of complex 1 with LiCH2SiMe3 afforded the respective (trimethylsilyl)methyl-Mn(II) complex [Mn{κ2N,N′-5-(2,4,6-iPr3C6H2)-NC4H2-2-C(H)═N(2,6-iPr2C6H3)}(Py)CH2SiMe3] 2 in a good yield. Complexes 1 and 2 were characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR spectroscopy, Evans' method, FTIR spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. While the crystal structure of complex 1 has been identified as a binuclear entity, in which the Mn(II) centers present pentacoordinate coordination spheres, that of complex 2 corresponds to a monomer with a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry. Complex 2 proved to be a very active precatalyst for the atom-economic hydrosilylation of several aldehydes and ketones under very mild conditions, with a maximum turnover frequency of 95 min-1, via a silyl-Mn(II) mechanistic route, as asserted by a combination of experimental and theoretical efforts, the respective silanes were cleanly converted to the respective alcoholic products in high yields.

Paragraph 0114-0118, (2021/06/21)
The invention discloses a PNO ligand containing planar chiral ferrocene and application thereof. The PNO ligand containing planar chiral ferrocene is a planar chiral ferrocene-containing and phenol-containing PNO ligand as shown in a general formula (I) or (II) which is described in the specification, or a planar chiral ferrocene-containing and aryl-phosphoric-acid-containingPNO ligand containing as shown in a general formula (III) or (IV) which is described in the specification, or a planar chiral ferrocene-containing and carbon-chiral-phenol-containingPNO ligand as shown in a general formula (V) or (VI) which is described in the specification. The invention provides tridentate PNO ligands and processes for their complexation with transition metal salts or transition metal complexes; the introduction of salicylaldehyde and derivatives thereof, which are simple and easy to obtain, enables the ligands to have a bifunctionalization effect, and -OH in a formed catalyst has stronger acidity and is beneficial to combination with N/O in polar double bonds. Therefore, due to the bifunctionalization effect of the catalyst, the interaction between the catalyst and a substrate can be greatly improved, so a reaction can obtain higher catalytic activity and stereoselectivity.

A Diaminocyclopentadienone iron tricarbonyl complex has been applied in chemoselective hydrogen transfer reductions. This bifunctional iron complex demonstrated a broad applicability in mild conditions in various reactions, such as reduction of aldehydes over ketones, reductive alkylation of various functionalized amines with functionalized aldehydes and reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones into the corresponding saturated ketones. A broad range of functionalized substrates has been isolated in excellent yields with this practical procedure.

Two new examples of structurally characterized β-diketiminate analogues i.e., conjugated bis-guanidinate (CBG) supported palladium(II) complexes, [LPdX]2; [L= {(ArHN)(ArN)–C=N–C=(NAr)(NHAr)}; Ar = 2,6-Et2-C6H3], X = Cl (1), Br (2) have been reported. The synthesis of complexes 1–2 was achieved by two methods. Method A involves deprotonation of LH by nBuLi followed by the treatment of LLi (insitu formed) with PdCl2 in THF, which afforded compound 1 in good yield (75 %). In Method B, the reaction between free LH and PdX2 (X = Cl or Br) in THF allowed the formation of complexes 1 (Yield 73 %) and 2 (Yield 52 %), respectively. Moreover, these complexes were characterized thoroughly by several spectroscopic techniques (1H, 13C NMR, UV/Vis, FT-IR, and HRMS), including single-crystal X-ray structural and elemental analyses. In addition, we tested the catalytic activity of these complexes 1–2 for the hydroboration of carbonyl compounds with pinacolborane (HBpin). We observed that compound 1 exhibits superior catalytic activity when compared to 2. Compound 1 efficiently catalyzes various aldehydes and ketones under solvent-free conditions. Furthermore, both inter- and intramolecular chemoselectivity hydroboration of aldehydes over other functionalities have been established.

The development of efficient and low-cost catalytic systems is important for the replacement of robust noble metal complexes. The synthesis and application of a stable, phosphine-free, water-soluble cyclopentadienone iron tricarbonyl complex in the reduction of polarized double bonds in pure water is reported. In the presence of cationic bifunctional iron complexes, a variety of alcohols and amines were prepared in good yields under mild reaction conditions.

Diethylsilane (Et2SiH2), a simple and readily available dihydrosilane, that exhibits superior reactivity, as compared to monohydrosilanes, in a series of reductive transformations catalyzed by recyclable and reusable Au nanoparticles (1 mol-%) supported on TiO2. It reduces aldehydes or ketones almost instantaneously at ambient conditions. It can be used in a one pot rapid reductive amination procedure, in which premixing of aldehyde and amine is required prior to the addition of the reducing agent and the catalyst, even in a protic solvent. An unprecedented method for the synthesis of N-arylisoindolines is also shown in the reductive amination between o-phthalaldehyde and anilines. In this transformation, it is proposed that the intermediate N,2-diphenylisoindolin-1-imines are reduced stepwise to the isoindolines. Finally, Et2SiH2 readily reduces amides into amines in excellent yields and shorter reaction times relative to previously known analogous nano Au(0)-catalyzed protocols.

[Fe]-hydrogenase is an efficient biological hydrogenation catalyst. Despite intense research, Fe complexes mimicking the active site of [Fe]-hydrogenase have not achieved turnovers in hydrogenation reactions. Herein, we describe the design and development of a manganese(I) mimic of [Fe]-hydrogenase. This complex exhibits the highest activity and broadest scope in catalytic hydrogenation among known mimics. Thanks to its biomimetic nature, the complex exhibits unique activity in the hydrogenation of compounds analogous to methenyl-H4MPT+, the natural substrate of [Fe]-hydrogenase. This activity enables asymmetric relay hydrogenation of benzoxazinones and benzoxazines, involving the hydrogenation of a chiral hydride transfer agent using our catalyst coupled to Lewis acid-catalyzed hydride transfer from this agent to the substrates.

Storing and transferring electrons for multi-electron reduction processes are considered to be the key steps in various important chemical and biological transformations. In this work, we accomplished multi-electron reduction of a carboxylic acid via a hydrosilylation pathway where a redox-active phenalenyl backbone in Co(PLY-O,O)2(THF)2, stores electrons and plays a preponderant role in the entire process. This reduction proceeds by single electron transfer (SET) from the mono-reduced ligand backbone leading to the cleavage of the Si-H bond. Several important intermediates along the catalytic reduction reaction have been isolated and well characterized to prove that the redox equivalent is stored in the form of a C-H bond in the PLY backbone via a ligand dearomatization process. The ligand's extensive participation in storing a hydride equivalent has been conclusively elucidated via a deuterium labelling experiment. This is a rare example where the ligand orchestrates the multielectron reduction process leaving only the metal to maintain the conformational requirements and fine tunes the electronics of the catalyst.

A 3D nano-/micrometer-scaled NiO material with urchin-like structure was prepared via a facile, green synthesis route, and served as a highly efficient and durable catalyst for catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) of bio-based furfural (FF) to furfuryl alcohol (FAOL) using 2-propanol as H-donor and solvent. The as-prepared NiO possessed a good active-site accessibility owing to a high surface area and large amount of acid-base sites, resulting in high FF conversion of 97.3% with 94.2% FAOL yield at 120 °C and 3 h of reaction, which was a superior catalytic performance compared to commercial NiO nanoparticles. Besides, the excellent catalytic performance of the sea urchin-like NiO was validated for gram-scale FAOL synthesis, and recyclability test confirmed the catalyst to be reusable for multiple reaction runs without significant activity loss after intermediary calcination in air. Notably, the introduced catalytic system was also applicable to CTH of alternative bio-derived aldehydes.

Dearomatization of indoles provides efficient synthetic routes for substituted indolines. In most cases, indoles serve as nucleophiles. Reported here is an asymmetric dearomatization reaction of indole derivatives that function as electrophiles. The combination of a photocatalyst and chiral phosphoric acid open to air unlocks the umpolung reactivity of indoles, enabling their dearomatization with N-hydroxycarbamates as nucleophiles. A variety of fused indolines bearing intriguing oxy-amines were constructed in excellent yields with moderate to high enantioselectivities. Mechanistic studies show that the realization of two sequential single-electron transfer oxidations of the indole derivatives is key, generating the configurationally biased carbocation species while providing the source of stereochemical induction. These results not only provide an efficient synthesis of enantioenriched indoline derivatives, but also offer a novel strategy for further designing asymmetric dearomatization reactions.
