Fast addition of highly polar organometallic reagents (RMgX/RLi) to cyclic carbonates (derived from CO2 as a sustainable C1 synthon) has been studied in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran as a green reaction medium or in the absence of external volatile organic solvents, at room temperature, and in the presence of air/moisture. These reaction conditions are generally forbidden with these highly reactive main-group organometallic compounds. The correct stoichiometry and nature of the polar organometallic alkylating or arylating reagent allows straightforward synthesis of: highly substituted tertiary alcohols, β-hydroxy esters, or symmetric ketones, working always under air and at room temperature. Finally, an unprecedented one-pot/two-step hybrid protocol is developed through combination of an Al-catalyzed cycloaddition of CO2 and propylene oxide with the concomitant fast addition of RLi reagents to the in situ and transiently formed cyclic carbonate, thus allowing indirect conversion of CO2 into the desired highly substituted tertiary alcohols without need for isolation or purification of any reaction intermediates.

We discovered that 2,7-diaminofluorene or 2,7-diaminocarbazole moiety can be employed as a core structure of highly effective NS5A inhibitors that are connected through amide bonds to proline-valine-carbamate motifs. Amide bonds can be easily cleaved via various metabolic pathways upon administration into the body, and metabolites containing 2,7-diaminofluorene and 2,7-diaminocarbazole core structures have been known to be strong mutagens. To avoid the mutagenesis issue of these core structures, we examined various functional groups at the C9 or N9 position of 2,7-diaminofluorene or 2,7-diaminocarbazole, respectively, through the Ames test in TA98 and TA100 mutants of Salmonella typhimurium LT-2. We discovered that, through proper alkyl substitution at the C9 or N9 position, 2,7-diaminofluorene and 2,7-diaminocarbazole moieties can be successfully employed in drug discovery without necessarily causing mutagenicity problems.

The binary hydride, diisobutylaluminum borohydride [(iBu)2AlBH4], synthesized from diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL) and borane dimethyl sulfide (BMS) has shown great potential in reducing a variety of organic functional groups. This unique binary hydride, (iBu)2AlBH4, is readily synthesized, versatile, and simple to use. Aldehydes, ketones, esters, and epoxides are reduced very fast to the corresponding alcohols in essentially quantitative yields. This binary hydride can reduce tertiary amides rapidly to the corresponding amines at 25 °C in an efficient manner. Furthermore, nitriles are converted into the corresponding amines in essentially quantitative yields. These reactions occur under ambient conditions and are completed in an hour or less. The reduction products are isolated through a simple acid-base extraction and without the use of column chromatography. Further investigation showed that (iBu)2AlBH4 has the potential to be a selective hydride donor as shown through a series of competitive reactions. Similarities and differences between (iBu)2AlBH4, DIBAL, and BMS are discussed.

Non-noble metal-based hydrogenation catalysts have limited practical applications because they exhibit low activity, require harsh reaction conditions, and are unstable in air. To overcome these limitations, herein we propose the alloying of non-noble metal nanoparticles with phosphorus as a promising strategy for developing smart catalysts that exhibit both excellent activity and air stability. We synthesized a novel nickel phosphide nanoalloy (nano-Ni2P) with coordinatively unsaturated Ni active sites. Unlike conventional air-unstable non-noble metal catalysts, nano-Ni2P retained its metallic nature in air, and exhibited a high activity for the hydrogenation of various substrates with polar functional groups, such as aldehydes, ketones, nitriles, and nitroarenes to the desired products in excellent yields in water. Furthermore, the used nano-Ni2P catalyst was easy to handle in air and could be reused without pretreatment, providing a simple and clean catalyst system for general hydrogenation reactions.

Alcohols are versatile structural motifs of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and fine chemicals. With respect to green chemistry, the development of more sustainable and cost-efficient processes for converting ketones/aldehydes to alcohols is highly desired. Herein, a direct light-driven strategy for reducing ketones/aldehydes to alcohols using isopropanol as the reducing agent and solvent, in the presence of t-BuOLi, under an air atmosphere at room temperature is developed. This operationally simple light-promoted Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) type reduction can be used to produce various benzylic alcohol derivatives as well as applied to bioactive molecules and PEEK model compounds, demonstrating its application potential.

Utilization of hydroxy-substituted bipyridine ligands in transition metal catalysis mimicking [Fe]-hydrogenase has been shown to be a promising approach in developing new catalysts for hydrogenation. For example, MnI complexes with 6,6′-dihydroxy-2,2′-bipyridine ligand have been previously shown to be active catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation. In this work, simple bipyridine-based Mn catalysts were developed that act as active catalysts for transfer hydrogenation of ketones, aldehydes and imines. For the first time, Mn-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of N-heterocycles was reported. The highest catalytic activity among complexes with variously substituted ligands was observed for the complex bearing two OH groups in bipyridine. Deuterium labeling experiments suggest a monohydride pathway.

The synthesis of a class of highly stable neutral dinuclear Cu(I)-NHC complexes using 1,2,4-triazole as a bridging ligand is described. Various NHCs were used to generate a library of [Cu(μ-trz)(NHC)]2 complexes. Interestingly, [Cu(μ-trz)(IPr)]2 was found to be highly active in the hydrosilylation of ketones, without the need for an external base or any other additive. A wide range of aryl and alkyl ketones, as well as sterically hindered ketones, was successfully reduced to alcohols using the lowest catalyst loading reported to date.

For the first time an easily accessible and well-defined manganese N,N,N-pincer complex catalyzes the transfer hydrogenation of a broad range of ketones with good to excellent yields. This cheap earth abundant-metal based catalyst provides access to useful secondary alcohols without the need of hydrogen gas. Preliminary investigations to explore the mechanism of this transformation are also reported.

Reaction of FeX2(thf)n (X = Cl n = 1.5, Br n = 2) with the chelating 1,1′-bis(silylenyl)-substituted ferrocene ligand SiFcSiA (Fc = ferrocendiyl, Si = PhC(NtBu)2Si:) furnishes the corresponding dihalido Fe(ii) complexes [(SiFcSi)FeX2] (X = Cl, 1 and X = Br, 2) in high yields. Reduction of the latter with an excess of KC8 in the presence of benzene and toluene leads to the unprecedented bis(silylene) stabilized Fe0 complexes [(SiFcSi)Fe-η6(C6H6)] 3 and [(SiFcSi)Fe-η6(C7H8)] 4, respectively. The 57Fe M?ssbauer spectrum of 3 at 13 K exhibits parameters (σ = 0.3676 mm s-1; ΔEQ = 1.334 mm s-1) which are consistent with the presence of a pentacoordinated Fe0 atom in a pseudo trigonal-bipyramidal coordination environment, with two dative Si→Fe bonds and three coordination sites occupied by the η6-coordinated arene ligand. Results from DFT calculations, 57Fe M?ssbauer parameters and the diamagnetic NMR spectra confirm the redox-innocent nature of these ligands and the zero oxidation state of the iron center. The catalytic ability of 3 was investigated with respect to ketone hydrogenation. In all cases, good to excellent yields to the corresponding alcohols were obtained at 50 °C and 50 bar H2 pressure. Electron-donating as well as -withdrawing substituents were tolerated with excellent to good yields. Conversions of bulkier ketones and unactivated aliphatic ketones lead merely to moderate yields. This represents the first example of a silylene-iron metal complex which has been utilized as a highly active precatalyst in the hydrogenation of ketones. The results underline the powerful ability of chelating bis(N-heterocyclic silylene) ligands acting as strong σ-donor ligands in stabilizing a new generation of low-valent, electron-rich transition metal complexes for catalytic transformations.
