1,3-Diphenyldisiloxane Enables Additive-Free Redox Recycling Reactions and Catalysis with Triphenylphosphine

The recently reported chemoselective reduction of phosphine oxides with 1,3-diphenyldisiloxane (DPDS) has opened up the possibility of additive-free phosphine oxide reductions in catalytic systems. Herein we disclose the use of this new reducing agent as an enabler of phosphorus redox recycling in Wittig, Staudinger, and alcohol substitution reactions. DPDS was successfully utilized in ambient-temperature additive-free redox recycling variants of the Wittig olefination, Appel halogenation, and Staudinger reduction. Triphenylphosphine-promoted catalytic recycling reactions were also facilitated by DPDS. Additive-free triphenylphosphine-promoted catalytic Staudinger reductions could even be performed at ambient temperature due to the rapid nature of phosphinimine reduction, for which we characterized kinetic and thermodynamic parameters. These results demonstrate the utility of DPDS as an excellent reducing agent for the development of phosphorus redox recycling reactions.

Silica-acetylacetone-supported palladium nanoparticles as an efficient and reusable catalyst in the Heck-Mizoroki C-C cross-coupling reaction

The preparation of palladium nanoparticles supported on acetylacetone-modified silica gel and their catalytic application for Heck olefination of aryl halides were investigated. The catalyst was characterized using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission and scanning electron microscopies. The supported palladium nanoparticles are demonstrated to be a highly active and reusable catalyst for the Heck reaction. Several reaction parameters, including type and amount of solvent and base, were evaluated. The heterogeneity of the catalytic system was investigated with results indicating that there is a slight palladium leaching into the reaction solution under the applied reaction conditions. Despite this metal leaching, the catalyst can be reused nine times without significant loss of catalytic activity.

The [RPPhPd as a catalyst precursor for the heck cross-coupling reaction by in situ formation of stabilized Pd(0) nanoparticles

Pd(II) anionic, square planar complexes of the type [RPPhPdl, where X = Cl, Br, have been applied for the first time as a catalyst precursor for the Heck reaction carried out in DMF at 140 °C. The highest yield was obtained for the most reducible ones, [MePPhPdrl, in DMF in the presence of NaHCOas a base. It was found that during the reaction, phosphonium halide stabilized Pd(0) nanoparticles of about 10 nm, which have been formed in situ from the palladium(II) precursor and Pd(0) colloidal nanoparticles acts as the reservoir for Pd(II) species via activation of the metal surface through the oxidative addition of aryl halides.

Tetraphosphine/palladium-catalyzed Heck reactions of aryl halides with disubstituted alkenes

cis,cis,cis-1,2,3,4-Tetrakis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)cyclopentane/ [PdCl(C3H5)]2 efficiently catalyses the Heck reaction of disubstituted alkenes such as methyl crotonate, ethyl cinnamate, methyl methacrylate or α-methylstyrene with a variety of aryl halides. In the presence of 1,2-disubstituted alkenes the stereoselectivities of the reactions strongly depend on the substituents of the alkenes. Selectivities up to 97% in favor of E-isomers can be obtained for the addition to methyl crotonate. With the 1,1-disubstituted alkenes methyl methacrylate or α-methylstyrene mixtures of products are obtained.
