Crotonaldehyde hydrogenation by gold supported on TiO2: Structure sensitivity and mechanism
Zanella, Rodolfo,Louis, Catherine,Giorgio, Suzanne,Touroude, Raymonde
, p. 328 - 339 (2004)
The catalytic properties of two series of Au/TiO2 catalysts prepared by deposition-precipitation with NaOH (DP NaOH) (～3 wt%) and by deposition-precipitation with urea (DP Urea) (～8 wt%) were evaluated for the reaction of crotonaldehyde hydrogenation at atmospheric pressure. There is no difference in activity (molgAu-1s-1) and selectivity between the DP Urea and DP NaOH samples for a given activation treatment. This is due to the fact that the DP Urea and DP NaOH samples exhibit a similar gold particle size distribution, although the gold loading in DP Urea catalysts is much higher than in DP NaOH. The DP Urea samples were reduced under H2 at different temperatures (120-500°C) or treated in air at 300°C with various flow rates, to vary the average particle size within a large range, 1.7 to 8.7 nm. The selectivity to crotyl alcohol (selective hydrogenation of the carbonyl bond), in the 5-50% conversion range, is high, 60-70 %, and is independent of the reduction temperature, and almost constant as a function of the particle size. In contrast, the TOF depends on the gold particle size, drastically increasing when the gold particle size is ～2 nm. These characteristic features of Au/TiO2 catalysts in this reaction are compared with those of Pt/TiO2. The possible adsorption modes of crotonaldehyde are discussed. Hydrogen dissociation is proposed to be the rate-determining step, and to take place on the low-coordinated atoms of the gold particles.

Alkyne aminopalladation reactions starting from tosylamides are reported. The emerging vinylic Pd species are converted either in an intramolecular Heck reaction with olefinic units or in an intermolecular Suzuki reaction by using boronic acids exhibiting broad functional group tolerance. Tetra(hetero)substituted tosylated enamines are obtained in a simple one-pot process.

Enantiopure (P)4- and (M)4-configured alleno-acetylenic cage (AAC) receptors offer a highly defined interior for the complexation and structure elucidation of small molecule fragments of the stereochemically complex chlorosulfolipid danicalipin A. Solution (NMR), solid state (X-ray), and theoretical investigations of the formed host-guest complexes provide insight into the conformational preferences of 14 achiral and chiral derivatives of the danicalipin A chlorohydrin core in a confined, mostly hydrophobic environment, extending previously reported studies in polar solvents. The conserved binding mode of the guests permits deciphering the effect of functional group replacements on Gibbs binding energies ΔG. A strong contribution of conformational energies toward the binding affinities is revealed, which explains why the denser packing of larger apolar domains of the guests does not necessarily lead to higher association. Enantioselective binding of chiral guests, with energetic differences ΔΔG293 K up to 0.7 kcal mol-1 between diastereoisomeric complexes, is explained by hydrogen- and halogen-bonding, as well as dispersion interactions. Calorimetric studies (ITC) show that the stronger binding of one enantiomer is accompanied by an increased gain in enthalpy ΔH but at the cost of a larger entropic penalty TΔS stemming from tighter binding.
New Zinc Catalyst for Hydrosilylation of Carbonyl Compounds

, p. 3305 - 3312 (2019/08/28)
A new zinc complex was synthesized and applied in the catalytic hydrosilylation of carbonyl compounds. Optimization of the reaction conditions showed that the presence a substoichiometric amount of methanol accelerates the process significantly. The reaction can proceed at very low catalyst load (down to 0.1 molpercent) under mild reaction conditions. The reaction tolerates the presence of C=C bonds, and thus can be useful for the synthesis of allylic alcohols from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones.
