[source] Why Platinum Catalysts Involving Ligands with Large Bite Angle Are so Efficient in the Allylation of Amines: Design of a Highly Active Catalyst and Comprehensive Experimental and DFT StudyCHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 32 2008Guilhem Mora Abstract The platinum-catalyzed allylation of amines with allyl alcohols was studied experimentally and theoretically. The complexes [Pt(,3 -allyl)(dppe)]OTf (2) and [Pt(,3 -allyl)(DPP-Xantphos)]PF6 (5) were synthesized and structurally characterized, and their reactivity toward amines was explored. The bicyclic aminopropyl complex [Pt(CH2CH2CH2NHBn- , - C,N)(dppe)]OTf (3) was obtained from the reaction of complex 2 with an excess of benzylamine, and this complex was shown to be a deactivated form of catalyst 2. On the other hand, reaction of complex 5 with benzylamine and allyl alcohol led to formation of the 16-VE platinum(0) complex [Pt(,2 -C3H5OH)(DPP-Xantphos)] (7), which was structurally characterized and appears to be a catalytic intermediate. A DFT study showed that the mechanism of the platinum-catalyzed allylation of amines with allyl alcohols differs from the palladium-catalyzed process, since it involves an associative ligand-exchange step involving formation of a tetracoordinate 18-VE complex. This DFT study also revealed that ligands with large bite angles disfavor the formation of platinum hydride complexes and therefore the formation of a bicyclic aminopropyl complex, which is a thermodynamic sink. Finally, a combination of 5 and a proton source was shown to efficiently catalyze the allylation of a broad variety of amines with allyl alcohols under mild conditions. [source] Silica-Supported Zirconium Complexes and their Polyoligosilsesquioxane Analogues in the Transesterification of Acrylates: Part 2.ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 13 2009Activity, Recycling, Regeneration Abstract The catalytic activity of both supported and soluble molecular zirconium complexes was studied in the transesterification reaction of ethyl acrylate by butanol. Two series of catalysts were employed: three well defined silica-supported acetylacetonate and n -butoxy zirconium(IV) complexes linked to the surface by one or three siloxane bonds, (SiO)Zr(acac)3 (1) (SiO)3Zr(acac) (2) and (SiO)3Zr(O- n -Bu) (3), and their soluble polyoligosilsesquioxy analogues (c -C5H9)7Si8O12(CH3)2Zr(acac)3 (1,), (c -C5H9)7Si7O12Zr(acac) (2,), and (c -C5H9)7Si7O12Zr(O- n -Bu) (3,). The reactivity of these complexes were compared to relevant molecular catalysts [zirconium tetraacetylacetonate, Zr(acac)4 and zirconium tetra- n -butoxide, Zr(O- n- Bu)4]. Strong activity relationships between the silica-supported complexes and their polyoligosilsesquioxane analogues were established. Acetylacetonate complexes were found to be far superior to alkoxide complexes. The monopodal complexes 1 and 1, were found to be the most active in their respective series. Studies on the recycling of the heterogeneous catalysts showed significant degradation of activity for the acetylacetonate complexes (1 and 2) but not for the less active tripodal alkoxide catalyst, 3. Two factors are thought to contribute to the deactivation of catalyst: the lixivation of zirconium by cleavage of surface siloxide bonds and exchange reactions between acetylacetonate ligands and alcohols in the substrate/product solution. It was shown that the addition of acetylacetone to the low activity catalyst Zr(O- n- Bu)4 produced a system that was as active as Zr(acac)4. The applicability of ligand addition to heterogeneous systems was then studied. The addition of acetylacetone to the low activity solid catalyst 3 produced a highly active catalyst and the addition of a stoichiometric quantity of acetylacetone at each successive batch catalytic run greatly reduced catalyst deactivation for the highly active catalyst 1. [source] Yttrium(III) complex as a highly active catalyst for lactide polymerizationJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 22 2006Linda M. Hodgson The synthesis, characterization, and X-ray crystal structure of a well-defined yttrium(III) amide complex with the bis(thiophosphinic amide) ligand is reported. The new complex exhibits high rates and good control for lactide polymerization. The polymerization kinetics and mechanism are studied under a range of different conditions, and these show that even under mild conditions this complex exhibits polymerization rates among the fastest known.
