Reactivity of a Dinuclear PdI Complex [Pd2(μ-PPh2)(μ2-OAc)(PPh3)2] with PPh3: Implications for Cross-Coupling Catalysis Using the Ubiquitous Pd(OAc)2/nPPh3 Catalyst System.

Project description:[PdI 2(μ-PPh2)(μ2-OAc)(PPh3)2] is the reduction product of PdII(OAc)2(PPh3)2, generated by reaction of 'Pd(OAc)2' with two equivalents of PPh3. Here, we report that the reaction of [PdI 2(μ-PPh2)(μ2-OAc)(PPh3)2] with PPh3 results in a nuanced disproportionation reaction, forming [Pd0(PPh3)3] and a phosphinito-bridged PdI-dinuclear complex, namely [PdI 2(μ-PPh2){κ2-P,O-μ-P(O)Ph2}(κ-PPh3)2]. The latter complex is proposed to form by abstraction of an oxygen atom from an acetate ligand at Pd. A mechanism for the formal reduction of a putative PdII disproportionation species to the observed PdI complex is postulated. Upon reaction of the mixture of [Pd0(PPh)3] and [PdI 2(μ-PPh2){κ2-P,O-μ-P(O)Ph2}(κ-PPh3)2] with 2-bromopyridine, the former Pd0 complex undergoes a fast oxidative addition reaction, while the latter dinuclear PdI complex converts slowly to a tripalladium cluster, of the type [Pd3(μ-X)(μ-PPh2)2(PPh3)3]X, with an overall 4/3 oxidation state per Pd. Our findings reveal complexity associated with the precatalyst activation step for the ubiquitous 'Pd(OAc)2'/nPPh3 catalyst system, with implications for cross-coupling catalysis.

Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of sterically hindered N-tosylimines.

Project description:Asymmetric hydrogenation of sterically hindered substrates still constitutes a long-standing challenge in the area of asymmetric catalysis. Herein, an efficient palladium acetate (an inexpensive Pd salt with low toxicity) catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of sterically hindered N-tosylimines is realized with high catalytic activities (S/C up to 5000) and excellent enantioselectivities (ee up to 99.9%). Quantum chemical calculations suggest that uniformly high enantioselectivities are observed due to the structurally different S- and R-reaction pathways.

Pd(OAc)2/Ph3P-catalyzed dimerization of isoprene and synthesis of monoterpenic heterocycles.

Project description:The palladium-catalyzed dimerization of isoprene is a practical approach of synthesizing monoterpenes. Though several highly selective methods have been reported, most of them still required pressure or costly ligands for attaining the active system and desired selectivity. Herein, we present a simple and economical procedure towards the tail-to-tail dimer using readily available Pd(OAc)2 and inexpensive triphenylphosphine as ligand. Furthermore, simple screw cap vials are employed, allowing carrying out the reaction at low pressure. In addition, the potential of the dimer as a chemical platform for the preparation of heterocyclic terpenes by subsequent (hetero)-Diels-Alder or [4 + 1]-cycloadditions with nitrenes is also depicted.

Sustainable Pd(OAc)2 /Hydroquinone Cocatalyst System for Cis-Selective Dibenzoyloxylation of 1,3-Cyclohexadiene.

Project description:The 1,4-diacyloxylation of 1,3-cyclohexadiene (CHD) affords valuable stereochemically defined scaffolds for natural product and pharmaceutical synthesis. Existing cis-selective diacyloxylation protocols require superstoichiometric quantities of benzoquinone (BQ) or MnO2 , which limit process sustainability and large-scale application. In this report, reaction development and mechanistic studies are described that overcome these limitations by pairing catalytic BQ with tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the stoichiometric oxidant. Catalytic quantities of bromide enable a switch from trans to cis diastereoselectivity. A catalyst with a 1:2 Pd:Br ratio supports high cis selectivity while retaining good rate and product yield. Further studies enable replacement of BQ with hydroquinone (HQ) as a source of cocatalyst, avoiding the handling of volatile and toxic BQ in large-scale applications.

Reduction of organic azides by indyl-anions. Isolation and reactivity studies of indium-nitrogen multiple bonds.

Project description:The synthesis of a new potassium-indyl complex, K[In(NONAr)] (NONAr = [O(SiMe2NAr)2]2-, Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) and its reactivity with organic azides RN3 is reported. When R = 2,6-bis(diphenylmethyl)-4- t Bu-phenyl, a dianionic alkyl-amide ligand is formed via C-H activation across a transient In-Nimide bond. Reducing the size of the R-group to 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl (mesityl, Mes) enables oxidation of the indium and elimination of dinitrogen to afford the imide species, K[In(NONAr)(NMes)]. The anion contains a short In-Nimide bond, shown computationally to contain appreciable multiple bond character. Reaction of isolated imides with an additional equivalent of azide (R = Mes, SiMe3) generates tetrazenido-indium compounds K[In(NONAr){κ-N,N'-N4(Mes)(R)-1,4}], shown by X-ray crystallography to contain planar InN4 heterocycles in the anion.

Quasi Pd1Ni single-atom surface alloy catalyst enables hydrogenation of nitriles to secondary amines.

Project description:Hydrogenation of nitriles represents as an atom-economic route to synthesize amines, crucial building blocks in fine chemicals. However, high redox potentials of nitriles render this approach to produce a mixture of amines, imines and low-value hydrogenolysis byproducts in general. Here we show that quasi atomic-dispersion of Pd within the outermost layer of Ni nanoparticles to form a Pd1Ni single-atom surface alloy structure maximizes the Pd utilization and breaks the strong metal-selectivity relations in benzonitrile hydrogenation, by prompting the yield of dibenzylamine drastically from ?5 to 97% under mild conditions (80?°C; 0.6?MPa), and boosting an activity to about eight and four times higher than Pd and Pt standard catalysts, respectively. More importantly, the undesired carcinogenic toluene by-product is completely prohibited, rendering its practical applications, especially in pharmaceutical industry. Such strategy can be extended to a broad scope of nitriles with high yields of secondary amines under mild conditions.

Mild and Regioselective Pd(OAc)2-Catalyzed C-H Arylation of Tryptophans by [ArN2]X, Promoted by Tosic Acid.

Project description:A regioselective Pd-mediated C-H bond arylation methodology for tryptophans, utilizing stable aryldiazonium salts, affords C2-arylated tryptophan derivatives, in several cases quantitatively. The reactions proceed in air, without base, and at room temperature in EtOAc. The synthetic methodology has been evaluated and compared against other tryptophan derivative arylation methods using the CHEM21 green chemistry toolkit. The behavior of the Pd catalyst species has been probed in preliminary mechanistic studies, which indicate that the reaction is operating homogeneously, although Pd nanoparticles are formed during substrate turnover. The effects of these higher order Pd species on catalysis, under the reaction conditions examined, appear to be minimal: e.g., acting as a Pd reservoir in the latter stages of substrate turnover or as a moribund form (derived from catalyst deactivation). We have determined that TsOH shortens the induction period observed when [ArN2]BF4 salts are employed with Pd(OAc)2. Pd(OTs)2(MeCN)2 was found to be a superior precatalyst (confirmed by kinetic studies) in comparison to Pd(OAc)2.

The reaction gives access to a variety of different α-allylated-α-CF3-amino acids in a straightforward manner, starting from commercially available trifluoropyruvate. We also provide a proof-of-concept for an enantioselective protocol (up to er = 75:25) by using chiral phosphane ligands.

Oxa-Michael Addition to ?,?-Unsaturated Nitriles: An Expedient Route to ?-Amino Alcohols and Derivatives.

Project description:Water addition to ?,?-unsaturated nitriles would give facile access to the ?-hydroxy-nitriles, which in turn can be hydrogenated to the ?-amino alcohols. We have previously shown that alcohols readily add in 1,4-fashion to these substrates using Milstein's Ru(PNN) pincer complex as catalyst. However, attempted water addition to ?,?-unsaturated nitriles gave the 3-hydroxynitriles in mediocre yields. On the other hand, addition of benzyl alcohol proceeded in excellent yields for a variety of ?-substituted unsaturated nitriles. Subsequent treatment of the benzyl alcohol addition products with TMSCl/FeCl3 resulted in the formation of 3-hydroxy-alkylnitriles. The 3-benzyloxy-alkylnitriles obtained from oxa-Michael addition also could be hydrogenated directly in the presence of acid to give the amino alcohols as their HCl salts in excellent yields. Hydrogenation under neutral conditions gave a mixture of the secondary and tertiary amines. Hydrogenation in the presence of base and Boc-anhydride gave the orthogonally bis-protected amino alcohols, in which the benzyl ether can subsequently be cleaved to yield Boc-protected amino alcohols. Thus, a variety of molecular scaffolds with a 1,3-relationship between O- and N-functional group is accessible starting from oxa-Michael addition of benzyl alcohol to ?,?-unsaturated nitriles.
