Elucidating the Roles of Amorphous Alumina Overcoat in Palladium-Catalyzed Selective Hydrogenation.

ABSTRACT: Amorphous alumina overcoats generated by atomic layer deposition (ALD) have been shown to improve the selectivity and durability of supported metal catalysts in many reactions. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the enhanced catalytic performance, but the accessibilities of reactants through the amorphous overcoats remain elusive, which is crucial for understanding reaction mechanisms. Here, we show that an AlO_x ALD overcoat is able to improve the alkene product selectivity of a supported Pd catalyst in acetylene (C₂H₂) hydrogenation. We further demonstrate that the AlO_x ALD overcoat blocks the access of C₂H₂ (kinetic diameter of 0.33 nm), O₂ (0.35 nm), and CO (0.38 nm) but allows H₂ (0.29 nm) to access Pd surfaces. A H-D exchange experiment suggests that H₂ might dissociate heterolytically at the Pd-AlO_x interface. These findings are in favor of a hydrogen spillover mechanism.

Palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of lactones under base-free conditions.

Project description:Asymmetric hydrogenation of esters through homogeneous catalysis is a significantly important transformation in organic synthesis. The systems developed so far mainly focused on chiral iridium and ruthenium catalysts, which required a base to facilitate the activity. Herein, we present a palladium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of lactones under base-free conditions through dynamic kinetic resolution and kinetic resolution. The reaction exhibits high enantioselectivity and excellent functional group tolerance. Remarkably, the hydrogenation proceeds smoothly at the gram scale, and the products can be transformed into several chiral potential building blocks without loss of optical purity. This work provides a new strategy for asymmetric hydrogenation of esters under base-free conditions.

Ruthenium-Catalyzed Carbocycle-Selective Hydrogenation of Fused Heteroarenes.

Project description:The homogeneous catalytic hydrogenation of benzo-fused heteroarenes generally provides partially hydrogenated products wherein the heteroaryl ring is preferentially reduced, such as quinoline hydrogenation, leading to 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline. Herein, we report a carbocycle-selective hydrogenation of fused N-heteroarenes (quinoline, isoquinoline, quinoxaline, etc.) using the Ru complex of a chiral spiroketal-based diphosphine (SKP) as the catalyst, affording the corresponding 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro products in high chemoselectivities. This catalytic system is also effective for the asymmetric carbocycle hydrogenation of fused heteroarenes bearing a boryl or amino group. Experimental studies provided a strong support for the homogeneous nature of the catalysis, and an inner-sphere mechanism was proposed for the hydrogenation. DFT calculations indicated that the hydrogenation is initiated by η4-coordinative activation of quinoline carbocycle to Ru dihydride complex of SKP, followed by metal-to-ligand hydride transfer. Subsequent carbocycle reduction proceeds via consecutive steps of the H2 oxidative addition and C-H reductive elimination.

Site-Selective Copper(I)-Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Amides.

Project description:We present a bifunctional catalyst consisting of a copper(I)/N-heterocyclic carbene and an organocatalytic guanidine moiety that enables, for the first time, a copper(I)-catalyzed reduction of amides with H2 as the terminal reducing agent. The guanidine allows for reactivity tuning of the originally weakly nucleophilic copper(I) hydrides - formed in situ - to be able to react with difficult-to-reduce amides. Additionally, the guanidine moiety is key for the selective recognition of "privileged" amides based on simple and readily available heterocycles in the presence of other amides within one molecule, giving rise to hitherto unknown site-selective catalytic amide hydrogenation. A substrate scope, mechanistic investigations, and a working hypothesis supported by computational analysis for site-selectivity are presented.

Selective ensembles in supported palladium sulfide nanoparticles for alkyne semi-hydrogenation.

Project description:Ensemble control has been intensively pursued for decades to identify sustainable alternatives to the Lindlar catalyst (PdPb/CaCO3) applied for the partial hydrogenation of alkynes in industrial organic synthesis. Although the geometric and electronic requirements are known, a literature survey illustrates the difficulty of transferring this knowledge into an efficient and robust catalyst. Here, we report a simple treatment of palladium nanoparticles supported on graphitic carbon nitride with aqueous sodium sulfide, which directs the formation of a nanostructured Pd3S phase with controlled crystallographic orientation, exhibiting unparalleled performance in the semi-hydrogenation of alkynes in the liquid phase. The exceptional behavior is linked to the multifunctional role of sulfur. Apart from defining a structure integrating spatially-isolated palladium trimers, the active ensembles, the modifier imparts a bifunctional mechanism and weak binding of the organic intermediates. Similar metal trimers are also identified in Pd4S, evidencing the pervasiveness of these selective ensembles in supported palladium sulfides.

Selective Hydrogenation of Nitriles to Primary Amines Catalyzed by a Polysilane/SiO2-Supported Palladium Catalyst under Continuous-Flow Conditions.

Project description:Hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines with heterogeneous catalysts under liquid-phase continuous-flow conditions is described. Newly developed polysilane/SiO2-supported Pd was found to be an effective catalyst and various nitriles were converted into primary amine salts in almost quantitative yields under mild reaction conditions. Interestingly, a complex mixture was obtained under batch conditions. Lifetime experiments showed that this catalyst remained active for more than 300 h (TON≥10 000) without loss of selectivity and no metal leaching from the catalyst occurred. By using this continuous-flow hydrogenation, synthesis of venlafaxine, an antidepressant drug, has been accomplished.

Alkanethiolate-capped palladium nanoparticles for selective catalytic hydrogenation of dienes and trienes.

Project description:Selective hydrogenation of dienes and trienes is an important process in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Our group previously reported that the thiosulfate protocol using a sodium S-alkylthiosulfate ligand could generate catalytically active Pd nanoparticles (PdNP) capped with a lower density of alkanethio-late ligands. This homogeneously soluble PdNP catalyst offers several advantages such as little contamination via Pd leaching and easy separation and recycling. In addition, the high activity of PdNP allows the reactions to be completed under mild conditions, at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Herein, a PdNP catalyst capped with octanethiolate ligands (C8 PdNP) is investigated for the selective hydrogenation of conjugated dienes into monoenes. The strong influence of the thiolate ligands on the chemical and electronic properties of the Pd surface is confirmed by mechanistic studies and highly selective catalysis results. The studies also suggest two major routes for the conjugated diene hydrogenation: the 1,2-addition and 1,4-addition of hydrogen. The selectivity between two mono-hydrogenation products is controlled by the steric interaction of substrates and the thermodynamic stability of products. The catalytic hydrogenation of trienes also results in the almost quantitative formation of mono-hydrogenation products, the isolated dienes, from both ocimene and myrcene.

Colloidal Palladium Nanoparticles for Selective Hydrogenation of Styrene Derivatives with Reactive Functional Groups.

Project description:This article presents the catalysis investigation of octanethiolate-capped palladium nanoparticles (C8 PdNP) and phenylethanethiolate-capped palladium nanoparticles (PhC2 PdNP) for chemoselective catalytic hydrogenation reactions of styrene derivatives in the presence of other reducible functionalities. The results show that the C8 PdNP is highly active under mild reaction conditions (room temperature and atmospheric pressure) and selective for hydrogenating monosubstituted alkene groups without reducing other reactive functional groups such as nitro, halo, carbonyls, and so forth. In comparison, the noncovalent interactions between surface phenyl ligands and aromatic substrates are found to hinder the hydrogenation activity of PhC2 PdNP.

Excited-State Palladium-Catalyzed α-Selective C1-Ketonylation.

Project description:C-Glycosides are important carbohydrate mimetics found in natural products, bioactive compounds, and marketed drugs. However, stereoselective preparation of this class of glycomimetics remains a significant challenge in organic synthesis. Herein, we report an excited-state palladium-catalyzed α-selective C-ketonylation strategy using readily available 1-bromosugars to access a range of C-glycosides. The reaction features excellent α-selectivity and mild conditions that tolerate a wide range of functional groups and complex molecular architectures. The resulting α-ketonylsugars can serve as versatile precursors for their β-isomers and other C-glycosides. Preliminary experimental and computational studies of the mechanism suggest a radical pathway involving the formation of palladoradical and glycosyl radical that undergoes polarity-mismatched coupling with silyl enol ether, affording the desired α-ketonylsugars. Insight into the reactivity and mechanism will inspire new reaction development and provide straightforward access to both α- and β-C-glycosides, greatly expanding the chemical and patent spaces of glycomimetics.

Palladium(0)-Catalyzed Anti-Selective Addition-Cyclizations of Alkynyl Electrophiles.

Project description:Palladium(0)/monophosphine complexes catalyze anti-selective alkylative, arylative, and alkynylative cyclizations of alkynyl electrophiles with organometallic reagents. The remarkable anti-selectivity results from novel oxidative addition, that is, the nucleophilic attack of electron-rich palladium(0) on the electrophile across the alkyne followed by transmetalation and reductive elimination ("anti-Wacker"-type cyclization). With regard to 5-alkynals, triphenylphosphine (PPh3 )-ligated palladium(0) catalyzes the cyclization of terminal alkynes and conjugated alkenyl- or alkynyl-substituted ones to afford 2-cyclohexen-1-ol and 2-alkylidene-cyclopentanol derivatives, respectively. For 6-alkyl- or 6-aryl-5-alkynals, the cyclization does not proceed with the palladium/PPh3 catalyst; however, it does proceed with palladium/tricyclohexylphosphine (PCy3 ), to yield the former products predominantly. Remarkably, the latter catalyst completely switches the regioselectivity in the cyclization of the conjugated diyne-aldehydes. Notably, palladium/PPh3 -catalyzed cyclizations also proceed with other organometallics or even without them.
