NICKEL-CATALYZED OLIGOMERIZATION OF FUNCTIONALIZED CONJUGATED DIENES
Tenaglia, A.,Brun, P.,Waegell, B.
, p. 343 - 358 (1985)
The cyclodimerization of several functionalized dienes with nickel(0) catalysts has been studied.When a functional group, such as a methoxycarbonyl or a trimethylsiloxy group, is bonded directly to the terminal carbon of the diene grouping, a completely regio- and stereo-selective dimerization is observed and trans-1,2-disubstituted cycloocta-3,7-dienes are formed in good yields (80-90percent).When one carbon atom separates the functional group from the diene group, the yield drops significantly (to 30percent), and the stereoselectivity and the clean nature of the reaction are completely lost.The effect of the nature of the nickel catalyst and the influence of the reductive organoaluminum species are discussed.The particular structure and the stereochemical features of the cyclooctadiene derivatives allow a better understanding of the various steps involved in the catalytic process.A reaction mechanism is proposed.
Photochirogenic nanosponges: phase-controlled enantiodifferentiating photoisomerization of (Z)-cyclooctene sensitized by pyromellitate-crosslinked linear maltodextrin

Linear maltodextrin (LM) was cross-linked by pyromellitic dianhydride to afford LM polymers of different cross-linking degrees. When soaked in water, these cross-linked LM polymers (nanosponges (NSs)), evolved into several phases from sol to suspension, then to flowing gel, and finally to rigid gel with an increase in their content. Enantiodifferentiating photoisomerization of (Z)-cyclooctene (1Z) to chiral (E)-isomer (1E), which was employed as a benchmark reaction to quantitatively assess the environmental-to-molecular chirality transfer process, was performed in aqueous media containing these pyromellitate-crosslinked LM-NSs in different phases. The enantiomeric excess (ee) of 1E obtained was relatively insensitive to the phases at least up to the flowing gel phase, but became highly sensitive in the rigid gel phase, exhibiting an abrupt drop in the early rigid gel phase followed by a rapid recovery in the late rigid gel phase. A comparison with the phase-dependent ee profiles previously reported for similar pyromellitate-crosslinked cyclodextrin (CD)- and cyclic nigerosylnigerose (CNN)-NSs revealed that the chiral void space created around the pyromellitate linker in NS is responsible for the dramatic changes in ee in the rigid gel phase, whereas the inherent host cavity in CD/CNN plays only limited roles in the supramolecular photochirogenesis mediated by the sensitizer-crosslinked NSs. The latter insight allows us to further expand the applicable range of the present concept and methodology by employing a much wider variety of oligosaccharides as well as substrates and sensitizing cross-linkers.

We demonstrate the application of a multicatalyst to the oxidation of a broad variety of aldehydes and subsequent enantioselective esterification of the incipient acids with (±)-trans-cycloalkane-1,2-diols. This reaction operates well with a multicatalyst bearing two independent catalytic moieties that provide monoprotected 1,2-diols in one pot.
