Synthesis of discrete catalytic oligomers and their potential in silica-supported cooperative catalysis.

ABSTRACT: Cooperative catalysis on solid surfaces relies primarily on two or more catalytic partners being close enough to each other to sustain the catalytic cycle. We describe here the synthesis and preliminary investigation of discrete homo-oligomers as flexible scaffolds to inflect the intersite distance and blur the compositional heterogeneity in a silica-grafted catalytic triad.

Synthesis of Mesoporous Silica-Supported NiCo Bimetallic Nanocatalysts and Their Enhanced Catalytic Hydrogenation Performance.

Project description:In this work, mesoporous silica SBA-16-supported NiCo bimetallic nanocatalysts were synthesized by coimpregnation of Ni and Co precursors followed by calcination and reduction, and various characterization techniques confirm the formation of NiCo bimetallic nanostructures in the catalysts. The synthesized NiCo/SBA-16 shows enhanced catalytic performance for hydrogenation of a series of nitroaromatics. Under the reaction conditions of 80 °C and 1.0 MPa of H2, the yields of aniline for nitrobenzene hydrogenation over NiCo0.3/SBA-16 can reach more than 99% at 2.0 h. The enhanced catalytic performance can be ascribed to the formation of NiCo bimetallic nanostructures, where the synergistic effect between Ni and Co improves their catalytic activities for hydrogenation of nitroaromatics.

Synthesis of Oxazinanones: Intramolecular Cyclization of Amino Acid-Derived Diazoketones via Silica-Supported HClO<sub>4</sub> Catalysis.

Project description:A Brønsted acid catalyzed intramolecular cyclization of N-Cbz-protected diazoketones, derived from α-amino acids, is described. The reaction proceeds under metal-free conditions and is promoted by ecofriendly silica-supported HClO4 as the catalyst and methanol as the solvent. This transformation enables the short synthesis of various 1,3-oxazinane-2,5-diones under mild reaction conditions and in good yields (up to 90%). The set-up is very simple; by just mixing all reagents together with no work-up necessary before purification, this protocol takes a greener approach.

Catalytic Enantioselective Protonation of Gold Enolates Enabled by Cooperative Gold(I) Catalysis.

Project description:Enantioselective protonation is a versatile approach to the construction of tertiary α-stereocenters, which are common structural motifs in various natural products and biologically relevant compounds. Herein we report a mild access to these chiral centers using cooperative gold(I) catalysis. From cyclic ketone enol carbonates, this asymmetric catalysis provides highly enantioselective access to cyclic ketones featuring an α tertiary chiral center, including challenging 2-methylsuberone. In combination with the gold-catalyzed formation of cyclopentadienyl carbonates in a one-pot, two-step process, this chemistry enables expedient access to synthetically versatile α'-chiral cyclopentenones with excellent enantiomeric excesses from easily accessible enynyl carbonate substrates.

High-Throughput Synthesis, Purification, and Application of Alkyne-Functionalized Discrete Oligomers.

Project description:The development of synthetic oligomers as discrete single molecular entities with accurate control over the number and nature of functional groups along the backbone has enabled a variety of new research opportunities. From fundamental studies of self-assembly in materials science to understanding efficacy and safety profiles in biology and pharmaceuticals, future directions are significantly impacted by the availability of discrete, multifunctional oligomers. However, the preparation of diverse libraries of discrete and stereospecific oligomers remains a significant challenge. We report a novel strategy for accelerating the synthesis and isolation of discrete oligomers in a high-throughput manner based on click chemistry and simplified bead-based purification. The resulting synthetic platform allows libraries of discrete polyether oligomers to be prepared and the impact of variables such as chain length, number, and nature of side chain functionalities and molecular dispersity on antibacterial behavior examined. Significantly, discrete oligomers were shown to exhibit enhanced activity with lower toxicity compared with traditional disperse samples. This work provides a practical and scalable methodology for nonexperts to prepare libraries of multifunctional discrete oligomers and demonstrates the advantages of discrete materials in biological applications.

Cooperative Surface-Particle Catalysis: The Role of the "Active Doughnut" in Catalytic Oxidation.

Project description:We consider the factors that govern the activity of bifunctional catalysts comprised of active particles supported on active surfaces. Such catalysts are interesting because the adsorption and diffusion steps, which are often discounted in "conventional" catalytic scenarios, play a key role here. We present an intuitive model, the so-called "active doughnut" concept, defining an active catalytic region around the supported particles. This simple model explains the role of adsorption and diffusion steps in cascade catalytic cycles for active particles supported on active surfaces. The concept has two important practical implications. First, the reaction rate is no longer proportional to the number of active sites, but rather to the number of "communicative" active sites-those available to the reaction intermediates during their respective lifetimes. Second, it generates an important testable prediction concerning the dependence of the total reaction rate on the particle size. With these tools at hand, we examine six experimental examples of catalytic oxidation from the literature, and show that the active doughnut concept gives valuable insight even when detailed mechanistic information is hard to come by.

Synthesis and catalytic performance of polydopamine supported metal nanoparticles.

Project description:Polydopamine (PDA) is an emerging nature-inspired biopolymer material that possesses many interesting properties including self-assembly and universal adhesion. PDA is also able to form coordination bonds with various metal ions, which can be reduced to metal nanoparticles (NPs) as a result of thermal annealing under protective environment. In this study, PDA has been utilized as a support material to synthesize Pt NPs in an aqueous solution at room temperature. The catalytic performance of the resulting PDA-Pt nanocomposite was evaluated using an electrochemical workstation which showed comparable activity to Pt/C material for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Furthermore, Cu, Ni, and Cu-Ni NPs supported on PDA were also obtained using this strategy with assistance of subsequent thermal annealing. The phase evolution of the NPs was studied by in-situ X-ray diffraction while the morphology of the nanoparticles was investigated using electron microscopic techniques. Preliminary results showed the NPs supported on PDA also possessed HER activity. This work demonstrates that PDA can be utilized as a potential support for synthesis of metal NPs that can be exploited in engineering applications such as catalysts.

Discrete complexes immobilized onto click-SBA-15 silica: controllable loadings and the impact of surface coverage on catalysis.

Project description:Azidopropyl functionalized mesoporous silica SBA-15 were prepared with variable azide loadings of 0.03-0.7 mmol g(-1) (~2-50% of maximal surface coverage) through a direct synthesis, co-condensation approach. These materials are functionalized selectively with ethynylated organic moieties through a copper-catalyzed azide alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) or "click" reaction. Specific loading within a material can be regulated by either the azide loading or limiting the alkyne reagent relative to the azide loading. The immobilization of ferrocene, pyrene, tris(pyridylmethyl)amine (TPA), and iron porphyrin (FeTPP) demonstrates the robust nature and reproducibility of this two-step synthetic attachment strategy. Loading-sensitive pyrene fluorescence correlates with a theoretically random surface distribution, rather than a uniform one; site-isolation of tethered moieties ~15 Å in length occurs at loadings less than 0.02 mmol g(-1). The effect of surface loading on reactivity is observed in the oxygenation of SBA-15-[Cu(I)(TPA)]. SBA-15-[Mn(II)(TPA)]-catalyzed epoxidation exhibits a systematic dependence on surface loading. A comparison of homogeneous, site-isolated and site-dense complexes provides insight into catalyst speciation and ligand activity.

Catalytic ammonia synthesis on HY-zeolite-supported angstrom-size molybdenum cluster.

Project description:The development of new catalysts with high N2 activation ability is an effective approach for low-temperature ammonia synthesis. Herein, we report a novel angstrom-size molybdenum metal cluster catalyst for efficient ammonia synthesis. This catalyst is prepared by the impregnation of a molybdenum halide cluster complex with an octahedral Mo6 metal core on HY zeolite, followed by the removal of all the halide ligands by activation with hydrogen. In this activation, the size of the Mo6 cluster (ca. 7 Å) is almost retained. The resulting angstrom-size cluster shows catalytic activity for ammonia synthesis from N2 and H2, and the reaction proceeds continuously even at 200 °C under 5.0 MPa. DFT calculations suggest that N[triple bond, length as m-dash]N bond cleavage is promoted by the cooperation of the multiple molybdenum sites.
