Iridium catalyzed reversible dehydrogenation - Hydrogenation of quinoline derivatives under mild conditions

Abstract The potential of a hydrogen-based energy economy is limited by the fact that hydrogen gas is difficult to store and transport. Storing hydrogen in the form of liquid organic hydrogen-carriers (LOHCs) is a highly attractive alternative to current options but it requires the development of catalytic means of reversibly hydrogenating and dehydrogenating these carriers under mild conditions and ideally using a single catalyst for both processes. We report the optimization of two families of previously reported hydrogenation catalysts for the reverse reaction, dehydrogenation of N-heterocyclic substrates. These complexes are capable of catalyzing both dehydrogenation and hydrogenation reactions in alternation, giving high yields in both directions. Importantly, our complexes do not require high temperatures, high pressures of H2 or strong base for the hydrogenation step.

We now report the electrocatalytic dehydrogenation of tetrahydroquinaldine by an electron-rich CpNi N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) with quinoid ligand motifs and explore the effects of quinone additives on CpNi compounds without quinoid NHC ligands. Our CpNi(NHC) catalyst exhibits dehydrogenative electrocatalytic activity and demonstrates that a molecular catalyst precursor can be viable in the electrode-driven (H+ + e-) release step of "virtual hydrogen storage".

We herein report that MoS2 with oxygen-implanting modification (O-MoS2) can work as a multifunctional catalyst to achieve the one-pot quinoline synthesis from basic nitroarenes and aliphatic alcohols. Different from common knowledge that the application of MoS2-based catalysts and above quinoline synthesis need anaerobic conditions, we conduct the heterogeneous catalysis under an unusual air atmosphere. Catalyst characterization and experimental results indicate that the MoOx clusters implanted in the MoS2 skeleton, not the coordinatively unsaturated Mo sites (CUS Mo), dominate the generation of quinolines. By overturning the catalysis perception that O2 adsorption on MoSx can deactivate the MoS2-based catalysts using an efficient method for in situ healing of the MoOx structure in O-MoS2 and protecting the O-MoS2 catalyst by inhibiting unwanted MoOx elimination with extra H*, we innovatively introduce O2 into the quinoline synthesis. The robust O-MoS2 can be consecutively used ten times without regeneration and it offers 69-75% yields of 2-methylquinoline from nitrobenzene and ethanol. Furthermore, different from the traditional transfer hydrogenation-condensation mechanism, an integrated oxidation-transfer hydrogenation-cyclization mechanism is proposed over the O-MoS2 catalyst.

We describe here an approach for synthesizing quinolines either from N-alkyl anilines or from anilines and aldehydes. A dual-catalyst system consisting of a photocatalyst and a proton reduction cocatalyst is employed. Without the use of any sacrificial ox
Manganese(III) Acetate Catalyzed Aerobic Dehydrogenation of Tertiary Indolines, Tetrahydroquinolines and an N-Unsubstituted Indoline

A Mn(OAc)3 ? 2H2O-catalyzed aerobic dehydrogenation of five and six-membered N-heterocycles for the synthesis of N-heteroarenes is reported. Of note, this protocol can be applied to the dehydrogenation of tertiary indolines with various electron-deficient N-substituents. Preliminary mechanistic investigations support that a single-electron transfer pathway might be involved. (Figure presented.).
Clean protocol for deoxygenation of epoxides to alkenes: Via catalytic hydrogenation using gold

The epoxidation of olefin as a strategy to protect carbon-carbon double bonds is a well-known procedure in organic synthesis, however the reverse reaction, deprotection/deoxygenation of epoxides is much less developed, despite its potential utility for the synthesis of substituted olefins. Here, we disclose a clean protocol for the selective deprotection of epoxides, by combining commercially available organophosphorus ligands and gold nanoparticles (Au NP). Besides being successfully applied in the deoxygenation of epoxides, the discovered catalytic system also enables the selective reduction N-oxides and sulfoxides using molecular hydrogen as reductant. The Au NP catalyst combined with triethylphosphite P(OEt)3 is remarkably more reactive than solely Au NPs. The method is not only a complementary Au-catalyzed reductive reaction under mild conditions, but also an effective procedure for selective reductions of a wide range of valuable molecules that would be either synthetically inconvenient or even difficult to access by alternative synthetic protocols or by using classical transition metal catalysts.

We report herein an unprecedented combination of light and P(III)/P(V) redox cycling for the efficient deoxygenation of aromatic amine N-oxides. Moreover, we discovered that a large variety of aliphatic amine N-oxides can easily be deoxygenated by using only phenylsilane. These practically simple approaches proceed well under metal-free conditions, tolerate many functionalities and are highly chemoselective. Combined experimental and computational studies enabled a deep understanding of factors controlling the reactivity of both aromatic and aliphatic amine N-oxides.

The use of ubiquities elements such as iron instead of expensive precious metals as catalysts is one goal toward realizing environmentally benign synthetic chemistry. Here, we report that porous FeO(OH) dispersed on Mg?Al hydrotalcite acts as a bifunctional heterogeneous catalyst in the one-pot synthesis of 2-substituted quinoline derivatives through dehydrogenative oxidation-cyclization reactions. The catalyst was prepared by a simple grafting method using FeCl3 and Mg?Al hydrotalcite. The prepared porous FeO(OH) possesses a higher surface area than those previously reported for α-FeO(OH) particles. The one-pot quinoline synthesis proceeded effectively under non-noble-metal catalysis in air without requiring additional homogeneous bases or solvents.
