The highly enantioselective transesterification of 2-phenyl-1-propanol, which has not been efficiently resolved by lipase-catalyzed reactions, was attained by using either vinyl 3-(p-tolyl)propanoate or vinyl 3-(2- naphthyl)propanoate as the acyl donor.

Carbon monoxide used to have a limited number of applications in organic chemistry, but it gradually increases its role as a mild and selective reducing agent. It can be applied for the carbon–heteroatom single bond formation via the reductive addition of hydrogen-containing nucleophiles to carbonyl compounds. In this paper, rhodium-catalyzed reductive esterification is described, and a comparative study of the rhodium and ruthenium catalysis in the reductive addition reactions is provided. Rhodium performs better on highly nucleophilic substrates and ruthenium is better for compounds with less nucleophilicity.

The catalytic activity of the recently reported Co-POM@MIL-101(Cr) composite, synthesized from K5[CoW12O40] (Co-POM) and chromium(iii) terephthalate (MIL-101), was studied in the solvent-free cycloaddition of CO2 with epoxides and esterification of acetic acid with various alcohols. The materials containing varying amounts of Co-POM were synthesized using a one-pot HF-free method in a "bottle around ship" strategy. The material was thoroughly characterized using several methods such as powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR). Temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of NH3 and CO2, and the CO2 adsorption capacity (adsorption isotherms) were used to study the acid-base properties of the materials. The combination of the electron-transfer character of Co(iii)-POM and ordered mesopores in MIL-101(Cr) creates an efficient catalytic system with mild conditions (90 °C and 20 bar CO2 pressure) for solvent-free cycloaddition of CO2 to various epoxides. Esterification of acetic acid with alcohols was also carried out using the Co-POM@MIL-101 catalysts and high yields were achieved for different alcohols. The catalysis experiments also clearly show that the active site in this heterogeneous catalyst is the Co(iii) center in the Keggin anion structure. It presumably conducts both the cycloaddition of CO2 to epoxides and the esterification reaction via an outer-sphere electron transfer mechanism using the Co(iii)/Co(ii) redox pair. The heterogeneous Co-POM@MIL-101 catalysts were separated by simple filtration and reused five times in the cycloaddition of CO2 with styrene epoxide and seven times for the esterification of acetic acid with benzyl alcohol with negligible leaching of Co-POM and no considerable loss of activity.

An asymmetric hydrogenation of β-branched enol esters has been developed for the first time, providing a new route for the synthesis of β-chiral primary alcohols. Using a (S)-SKP-Rh complex bearing a large bite angle and enol ester substrates possessing an O-fomyl directing group, the desired products were obtained in quantitative yields and with excellent enantioselectivities.

The potential of P,O-iminosugar based ligands in the Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of minimally functionalized olefins is presented. These new ligands were prepared from easily available carbohydrates (D-mannose, D-ribose and D-arabinose). The stereochemical and polyfunctional diversity of carbohydrates allowed the modulation of the ligands, both from their electronic properties and the rigidity of their backbone. High enantioselectivities (ee’s up to 99 %) can be reached in the hydrogenation of selected tri- and disubstituted substrates.
Impact of variation of the acyl group on the efficiency and selectivity of the lipase-mediated resolution of 2-phenylalkanols
Foley, Aoife M.,Gavin, Declan P.,Joniec, Ilona,Maguire, Anita R.
, p. 1144 - 1153 (2017/09/15)
By tuning the steric properties of the acyl group to control the efficiency and selectivity of the resolution, 2-phenyl-1-propanol 1a was prepared by lipase-catalysed hydrolysis using a short-chain acyl group, with E-values of up to 66 (ee up to 95%). 2-Phenylbutan-1-ol 1b was similarly resolved (up to 86% ee) using the optimised conditions, while the ester of the more sterically demanding 3-methyl-2-phenylbutan-1-ol 1c proved resistant to enzymatic hydrolysis under these conditions.

This study presents a new series of readily accessible iridium- and rhodium-phosphite/oxazoline catalytic systems that can efficiently hydrogenate, for the first time, both minimally functionalized olefins and functionalized olefins (62 examples in total) in high enantioselectivities (ees up to >99%) and conversions. The phosphite-oxazoline ligands, which are readily available in only two synthetic steps, are derived from previous privileged 4-alkyl-2-[2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]-2-oxazoline (PHOX) ligands by replacing the phosphine moiety by a biaryl phosphite group and/or the introduction of a methylene spacer between the oxazoline and the phenyl ring. The modular design of the ligands has given us the opportunity not only to overcome the limitations of the iridium-PHOX catalytic systems in the hydrogenation of minimally functionalized Z-olefins and 1,1-disubstituted olefins, but also to expand their use to unfunctionalized olefins containing other challenging scaffolds (e.g., exocyclic benzofused and triaryl-substituted olefins) and also to olefins with poorly coordinative groups (e.g., α,β-unsaturated lactams, lactones, alkenylboronic esters, etc.) with enantioselectivities typically >95% ee. Moreover, both enantiomers of the hydrogenation product could be obtained by simply changing the configuration of the biaryl phosphite moiety. Remarkably, the new catalytic systems also provided excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) in the asymmetric hydrogenation of another challenging class of olefins – the functionalized cyclic β-enamides. Again, both enantiomers of the reduced amides could be obtained by changing the metal from Ir to Rh. We also demonstrated that environmentally friendly propylene carbonate can be used with no loss of enantioselectivity. Another advantage of the new ligands over the PHOX ligands is that the best ligands are derived from the affordable (S)-phenylglycinol rather than from the expensive (S)-tert-leucinol.

P4VPy–CuO nanoparticles were synthesized using ultrasound irradiations. Relevant properties of the synthesized nanoparticles were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. After identification, the prepared reagent was used for the promotion of different types of protection reactions of alcohols, phenols and amines. Easy workup, short reaction times, excellent yields, relatively low cost and reusability of the catalyst are the striking features of the reported methods.
Extending the substrate scope of bicyclic p-oxazoline/thiazole ligands for ir-catalyzed hydrogenation of unfunctionalized olefins by introducing a biaryl phosphoroamidite group

This study identifies a series of Ir-bicyclic phosphoroamidite-oxazoline/thiazole catalytic systems that can hydrogenate a wide range of minimally functionalized olefins (including E- and Z-tri- and disubstituted substrates, vinylsilanes, enol phosphinates, tri- and disubstituted alkenylboronic esters, and ?±,?2-unsaturated enones) in high enantioselectivities (ee values up to 99%) and conversions. The design of the new phosphoroamidite-oxazoline/thiazole ligands derives from a previous successful generation of bicyclic N-phosphane-oxazoline/thiazole ligands, by replacing the N-phosphane group with a p-acceptor biaryl phosphoroamidite moiety. A small but structurally important family of Ir-phosphoroamidite-oxazoline/thiazole precatalysts has thus been synthesized by changing the nature of the Ndonor group (either oxazoline or thiazole) and the configuration at the biaryl phosphoroamidite moiety. The substitution of the N-phosphane by a phosphoroamidite group in the bicyclic N-phosphane-oxazoline/thiazole ligands extended the range of olefins that can be successfully hydrogenated.
