New Functionalised Hydroxymethyl Ketones from the Mild and Chemoselective KMnO4 Oxidation of Chiral Terminal Olefins

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 1 2006
Carlo Bonini
Abstract Various terminal olefinic compounds are directly converted into the corresponding ,-hydroxy ketones in good yields by potassium permanganate oxidation. The reaction is also highly chemoselective in the presence of differently protected hydroxy groups and can be utilised for the preparation of polyfunctional compounds such as polyols.

The Extraordinary Cocatalytic Action of Polymethylaluminoxane (MAO) in the Polymerization of Terminal Olefins by Metallocenes: Chemical Change in the Group 4 Metallocene Dimethyl Derivatives Induced by MAO,

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 20 2005
John J. Eisch
Abstract In the polymerization of olefins with Group 4 metallocene dichlorides or dimethyl derivatives as procatalysts the use of polymethylaluminoxane (MAO) as the cocatalyst, especially in extreme excess (102,103 times the metallocene equivalent), has been shown to have an extraordinary accelerating effect on the rate of olefin polymerization, when compared with the cocatalytic action of alkylaluminum halides. In attempts at explaining the greatly superior catalytic activity of MAO in olefin polymerization (the MAO conundrum), hypotheses have generally paralleled the steps involved in the cocatalytic action of RnAlCl3,n, namely the alkylation of Cp2MtCl2, ionization of Cp2Mt(R)Cl into the metallocenium cation, [Cp2Mt,R]+, and anion, [Rn,1AlCl4,n], and subsequent ion-pair separation. In order to understand any differences in catalytic action between such cocatalysts, we have studied the individual action of MAO (100 equiv.) and of MeAlCl2 (1,2 equiv.) on each of the Group 4 metallocene derivatives, Cp2TiCl2, Cp2ZrCl2, Cp2Ti(CH3)2 and Cp2Zr(CH3)2. With MeAlCl2 each of the metallocene derivatives appeared to form the cation, [Cp2Mt,CH3]+, with greater (Ti) or lesser (Zr) ease, because an alkyne such as diphenylacetylene was then found to insert into the Mt,CH3 bond stereoselectively. In striking contrast, treatment of each metallocene with MAO gave two reactions very different from MeAlCl2, namely a steady evolution of methane gas upon mixing and a finding upon hydrolytic workup that the diphenylacetylene present had undergone no insertion into the Mt,CH3 bond but instead had been reductively dimerized completely to (E,E)-1,2,3,4-tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene. To account for this astonishing difference in chemical behavior between MAO and MeAlCl2 in their cocatalytic activation of Group 4 metallocenes to olefin polymerization, it is necessary to postulate a novel, unique sequence of reaction steps occurring between MAO and the metallocene. If one starts with the metallocene dichloride, then the free TMA present in the MAO would generate the Cp2Mt(CH3)2. This metallocene dimethyl derivative, complexed with an oligomeric MAO unit, would undergo a transfer-epimetallation with added olefin or acetylene to form a metallacyclopropane or metallacyclopropene, respectively. With added diphenylacetylene the resulting 2,3-diphenylmetallacyclopropene would be expected rapidly to insert a second alkyne to form the 2,3,4,5-tetraphenyl-1-metallacyclopentadiene. Simple hydrolysis of the latter intermediate would generate (E,E)-1,2,3,4-tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene while alternative workup with D2O would give the 1,4-dideuterio derivative of this butadiene. Both such expectations were confirmed by experiment. In the case of added olefin, similar metallacyclopropane and metallacyclopentane intermediates should be produced until ring opening of the latter five-membered ring leads to an open-chain zwitterion, a process having ample precedent in the research of Gerhard Erker. The solution to the MAO conundrum then, namely the extraordinary cocatalytic activity of MAO in olefin polymerization by metallocenes, lies in the unique catalytic activation of the Group 4 metallocene dimethyl derivative, which occurs by transfer-epimetallation of the olefin monomer by the Cp2Mt(CH3)2,MAO complex. The most advantageous Lewis acidic sites in the MAO,oligomeric mixture for such metallocene,MAO complexation are suggested to be terminal Me2Al,O,AlMe, segments of an open-chain oligomer.

Asymmetric Epoxidation of Terminal Olefins with Binaphthyl Strapped Porphyrin Catalysts: (-( Stacking Interaction and Steric Effects on the Enantioselectivities

CHINESE JOURNAL OF CHEMISTRY, Issue 5 2009
Qizhi REN
Abstract Two binaphthyl strapped porphyrins with similar chiral auxiliaries 1b and 2b were used as efficient catalysts for asymmetric epoxidation of both styrene derivatives and non-aromatic olefin substrates. Theoretical calculation of styrene approach to both catalysts has been performed. The subtle difference of the chiral cavities between two porphyrins has been analyzed by 1H NMR. The ,-, stacking interaction between aromatic substrates and catalysts might be one factor for the dramatic different enantioselectivities. Besides, the steric effect of the binaphthyl handle of 1b and 2b also causes the high ee values for non-aromatic olefin epoxidations. [source]

Recyclable Polymer- and Silica-Supported Ruthenium(II)-Salen Bis-pyridine Catalysts for the Asymmetric Cyclopropanation of Olefins

ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 9 2009
Christopher
Abstract Homogeneous ruthenium(II)-salen bis-pyridine complexes are known to be highly active and selective catalysts for the asymmetric cyclopropanation of terminal olefins. Here, new methods of heterogenization of these Ru-salen catalysts on polymer and porous silica supports are demonstrated for the facile recovery and recycle of these expensive catalysts. Activities, selectivities, and recyclabilities are investigated and compared to the analogous homogeneous and other supported catalysts for asymmetric cyclopropanation reactions. The catalysts are characterized with a variety of methods including solid state cross-polarization magic-angle spinning (CP MAS) 13C and 29Si,NMR, FT-IR, elemental analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis. Initial investigations produced catalysts possessing high selectivities but decreasing activities upon reuse. Addition of excess pyridine during the washing steps between cycles was observed to maintain high catalytic activities over multiple cycles with no impact on selectivity. Polymer-supported catalysts showed superior activity and selectivity compared to the porous silica-supported catalyst. Additionally, a longer, flexible linker between the Ru-salen catalyst and support was observed to increase enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity, but had no effect on activity of the resin catalysts. Furthermore, the polymer-supported Ru-salen-Py2 catalysts were found to generate superior selectivities and yields compared to other leading heterogeneous asymmetric cyclopropanation catalysts.

Ravalec, Virginie Le
Abstract The ruthenium-catalysed enyne cross-metathesis of several alkyne derivatives with terminal olefins was performed. These reactions were efficiently achieved under mild conditions in dimethyl carbonate, an eco-friendly solvent. A unique one-pot reaction based on an ethenolysis step followed by an enyne cross-metathesis allowed the efficient transformation of renewable unsaturated fatty esters into valuable conjugated 1,3-dienes of interest for further transformations.

Highly Selective Hydroaminomethylation of Internal Alkenes To Give Linear Amines

CHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 35 2006
Moballigh Ahmed Dr.
Abstract The application of phenoxaphosphino-modified Xantphos-type ligands (1,9) in the rhodium-catalyzed hydroaminomethylation of internal olefins to give linear amines is reported. Excellent chemo- and regioselectivities have been obtained through the use of 0.1 mol,% [Rh(cod)2]BF4/0.4 mol,% xantphenoxaphos (1), providing a practical and environmentally attractive synthetic route for the preparation of amines from internal alkenes. For the first time, both functionalized internal olefins and mixtures of internal and terminal olefins have been converted highly selectively into linear amines. Investigations of the effects of the calculated natural bite angles of ligands on hydroaminomethylation shows that the regioselectivity for the linear product follows a similar trend to that seen in the hydroformylation of internal alkenes with the aid of these ligands. Hydroaminomethylation and each of its individual steps were monitored by high-pressure infrared spectroscopy. The results suggest that hydroaminomethylations take place by a sequential isomerization/hydroformylation/amination/hydrogenation pathway. [source]
