Iminium Salt-Catalysed Asymmetric Epoxidation using Hydrogen Peroxide as Stoichiometric Oxidant

ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 11-12 2008
Philip C. Bulman Page
Abstract Iminium salt organocatalysts can provide high selectivity and high efficiency in catalytic asymmetric epoxidation. They are normally used in conjunction with Oxone as the stoichiometric oxidant. Oxone, however, has limited stability and is insoluble in most organic solvents; we report here for the first time the development of a reaction system driven by hydrogen peroxide as the stoichiometric oxidant, involving an unusual double catalytic cycle.

Highly Efficient Copper-Catalyzed Synthesis of Internal Alkynes via Aerobic Oxidative Arylation of Terminal Alkynes

Abstract We have developed a novel and highly efficient, copper-catalyzed synthesis of internal alkynes via oxidative couplings of aromatic boronic acids with terminal alkynes at room temperature. The protocol uses inexpensive copper(I) oxide [Cu2O] as the catalyst, oxygen in the air as the stoichiometric oxidant; no ligand and sealed reaction vessels are required, and remarkable functional group tolerability is observed with coupling occurring.

The First General and Selective Palladium(II)-Catalyzed Alkoxycarbonylation of Arylboronates: Interplay among Benzoquinone-Ligated Palladium(0) Complex, Organoboron, and Alcohol Solvent

Abstract Methoxycarbonylation of aryl- and alkenylboron compounds was performed using the palladium(II) acetate/triphenylphosphine [Pd(OAc)2/PPh3] catalyst with p -benzoquinone as a stoichiometric oxidant in methanol at ambient temperature to obtain the corresponding methyl esters in good yields. A wide variety of functional groups including various carbonyl functionalities, nitrile, nitro, sulfone, and unprotected pyrrole rings were tolerated in the methoxycarbonlation, while the use of higher alcohols except for tert -butanol afforded various p -chlorobenzoates in moderate to high yields. The catalytic alkoxycarbonylation proceeded without any acid or base additive, and an oxidative transmetalation step is proposed to explain the exceptional efficacy of this protocol. DFT and MP2 calculations support the proposed mechanism. [source]


Ruthenium-Catalyzed Oxidative Homo-Coupling of 2-Arylpyridines

ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 13 2009
Xiangyu Guo
Abstract A ruthenium-catalyzed oxidative homo-coupling reaction of 2-arylpyridines via CH activation was developed. The reaction could tolerate various functional groups on both the aryl and the pyridyl rings to afford a series of dimerized products with iron(III) chloride (FeCl3) as a stoichiometric oxidant. A tentative mechanism was proposed for this oxidative CH/CH homo-coupling. [source]


Nanocrystalline Magnesium Oxide-Stabilized Molybdenum: An Efficient Heterogeneous Catalyst for the Aerobic Oxidation of Alcohols to Carbonyl Compounds

ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 16 2008
M. Lakshmi Kantam
Abstract A nanocrystalline magnesium oxide-stabilized molybdenum(VI) complex catalyzed the oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to carbonyl compounds in excellent yields using molecular oxygen as stoichiometric oxidant. The nanomaterials with their three-dimensional structure and defined size and shape act as suitable supports for metal complexes. The catalyst can be reused for four runs without any significant loss of activity. [source]

Aerobic, Chemoselective Oxidation of Alcohols to Carbonyl Compounds Catalyzed by a DABCO-Copper Complex under Mild Conditions

ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 14-15 2007
Sreedevi Mannam
Abstract A DABCO-copper(I) chloride complex (5 mol,%) together with TEMPO (5 mol,%) in nitromethane as solvent has been used as an efficient catalytic system for the selective oxidation of benzylic and allylic alcohols into the corresponding carbonyl compounds at room temperature where molecular oxygen acts as an ultimate, stoichiometric oxidant and water is the only by-product. The solid-state structure determination of the DABCO-copper complex shows that the copper is in the +II oxidation state with trigonal bipyramidal geometry and exists in a linear polymeric structure due to strong hydrogen bonding.
