Non-Pincer-Type Manganese Complexes as Efficient Catalysts for the Hydrogenation of Esters.

ABSTRACT: Catalytic hydrogenation of carboxylic acid esters is essential for the green production of pharmaceuticals, fragrances, and fine chemicals. Herein, we report the efficient hydrogenation of esters with manganese catalysts based on simple bidentate aminophosphine ligands. Monoligated Mn PN complexes are particularly active for the conversion of esters into the corresponding alcohols at Mn concentrations as low as 0.2?mol?% in the presence of sub-stoichiometric amounts of KO^t Bu base.

Robust and efficient hydrogenation of carbonyl compounds catalysed by mixed donor Mn(I) pincer complexes.

Project description:Any catalyst should be efficient and stable to be implemented in practice. This requirement is particularly valid for manganese hydrogenation catalysts. While representing a more sustainable alternative to conventional noble metal-based systems, manganese hydrogenation catalysts are prone to degrade under catalytic conditions once operation temperatures are high. Herein, we report a highly efficient Mn(I)-CNP pre-catalyst which gives rise to the excellent productivity (TOF° up to 41 000 h-1) and stability (TON up to 200 000) in hydrogenation catalysis. This system enables near-quantitative hydrogenation of ketones, imines, aldehydes and formate esters at the catalyst loadings as low as 5-200 p.p.m. Our analysis points to the crucial role of the catalyst activation step for the catalytic performance and stability of the system. While conventional activation employing alkoxide bases can ultimately provide catalytically competent species under hydrogen atmosphere, activation of Mn(I) pre-catalyst with hydride donor promoters, e.g. KHBEt3, dramatically improves catalytic performance of the system and eliminates induction times associated with slow catalyst activation.

Efficient and selective N-alkylation of amines with alcohols catalysed by manganese pincer complexes.

Project description:Borrowing hydrogen (or hydrogen autotransfer) reactions represent straightforward and sustainable C-N bond-forming processes. In general, precious metal-based catalysts are employed for this effective transformation. In recent years, the use of earth abundant and cheap non-noble metal catalysts for this process attracted considerable attention in the scientific community. Here we show that the selective N-alkylation of amines with alcohols can be catalysed by defined PNP manganese pincer complexes. A variety of substituted anilines are monoalkylated with different (hetero)aromatic and aliphatic alcohols even in the presence of other sensitive reducible functional groups. As a special highlight, we report the chemoselective monomethylation of primary amines using methanol under mild conditions.

Efficient and selective hydrogenation of amides to alcohols and amines using a well-defined manganese-PNN pincer complex.

Project description:Novel well-defined NNP and PNP manganese pincer complexes have been synthetized and fully characterized. The catalyst Mn-2 containing an imidazolyaminolphosphino ligand shows high activity and selectivity in the hydrogenation of a wide range of secondary and tertiary amides to the corresponding alcohols and amines, under relatively mild conditions. For the first time, more challenging substrates like primary aromatic amides including an actual herbicide can also be hydrogenated using this earth-abundant metal-based pincer catalyst.

Cationic Aluminium Complexes as Catalysts for Imine Hydrogenation.

Project description:Strongly Lewis acidic cationic aluminium complexes, stabilized by β-diketiminate (BDI) ligands and free of Lewis bases, have been prepared as their B(C6 F5 )4 - salts and were investigated for catalytic activity in imine hydrogenation. The backbone (R1) and N (R2) substituents on the R1,R2 BDI ligand (R1,R2 BDI=HC[C(R1)N(R2)]2 ) influence sterics and Lewis acidity. Ligand bulk increases along the row Me,DIPP BDI<Me,DIPeP BDI≈tBu,DIPP BDI<tBu,DIPeP BDI; DIPP=2,6-C(H)Me2 -phenyl, DIPeP=2,6-C(H)Et2 -phenyl. The Gutmann-Beckett test showed acceptor numbers of: (tBu,DIPP BDI)AlMe+ 85.6, (tBu,DIPeP BDI)AlMe+ 85.9, (Me,DIPP BDI)AlMe+ 89.7, (Me,DIPeP BDI)AlMe+ 90.8, (Me,DIPP BDI)AlH+ 95.3. Steric and electronic factors need to be balanced for catalytic activity in imine hydrogenation. Open, highly Lewis acidic, cations strongly coordinate imine rendering it inactive as a Frustrated Lewis Pair (FLP). The bulkiest cations do not coordinate imine but its combination is also not an active catalyst. The cation (tBu,DIPP BDI)AlMe+ shows the best catalytic activity for various imines and is also an active catalyst for the Tishchenko reaction of benzaldehyde to benzylbenzoate. DFT calculations on the mechanism of imine hydrogenation catalysed by cationic Al complexes reveal two interconnected catalytic cycles operating in concert. Hydrogen is activated either by FLP reactivity of an Al⋅⋅⋅imine couple or, after formation of significant quantities of amine, by reaction with an Al⋅⋅⋅amine couple. The latter autocatalytic Al⋅⋅⋅amine cycle is energetically favoured.

Catalytic Hydrogenation of Cyclic Carbonates using Manganese Complexes.

Project description:Catalytic hydrogenation of cyclic carbonates to diols and methanol was achieved using a molecular catalyst based on earth-abundant manganese. The complex [Mn(CO)2 (Br)[HN(C2 H4 Pi Pr2 )2 ] 1 comprising commercially available MACHO ligand is an effective pre-catalyst operating under relatively mild conditions (T=120?°C, p(H2 )=30-60?bar). Upon activation with NaOt Bu, the formation of coordinatively unsaturated complex [Mn(CO)2 [N(C2 H4 Pi Pr2 )2 )] 5 was spectroscopically verified, which confirmed a kinetically competent intermediate. With the pre-activated complex, turnover numbers up to 620 and 400 were achieved for the formation of the diol and methanol, respectively. Stoichiometric reactions under catalytically relevant conditions provide insight into the stepwise reduction form the CO2 level in carbonates to methanol as final product.

Efficient Hydrogenation of Ketones and Aldehydes Catalyzed by Well-Defined Iron(II) PNP Pincer Complexes: Evidence for an Insertion Mechanism.

Project description:We have prepared and structurally characterized a new class of Fe(II) PNP pincer hydride complexes [Fe(PNP-iPr)(H)(CO)(L)] n (L = Br-, CH3CN, pyridine, PMe3, SCN-, CO, BH4-; n = 0, +1) based on the 2,6-diaminopyridine scaffold where the PiPr2 moieties of the PNP ligand are connected to the pyridine ring via NH and/or NMe spacers. Complexes [Fe(PNP-iPr)(H)(CO)(L)] n with labile ligands (L = Br-, CH3CN, BH4-) and NH spacers are efficient catalysts for the hydrogenation of both ketones and aldehydes to alcohols under mild conditions, while those containing inert ligands (L = pyridine, PMe3, SCN-, CO) are catalytically inactive. Interestingly, complex [Fe(PNPMe-iPr)(H)(CO)(Br)], featuring NMe spacers, is an efficient catalyst for the chemoselective hydrogenation of aldehydes. The first type of complexes involves deprotonation of the PNP ligand as well as heterolytic dihydrogen cleavage via metal-alkoxide cooperation, but no reversible aromatization/deprotonation of the PNP ligand. In the case of the N-methylated complex the mechanism remains unclear, but obviously does not allow bifunctional activation of dihydrogen. The experimental results complemented by DFT calculations strongly support an insertion of the C=O bond of the carbonyl compound into the Fe-H bond.

Alcohol-Assisted Hydrogenation of Carbon Monoxide to Methanol Using Molecular Manganese Catalysts.

Project description:Alcohol-assisted hydrogenation of carbon monoxide (CO) to methanol was achieved using homogeneous molecular complexes. The molecular manganese complex [Mn(CO)2Br[HN(C2H4P i Pr2)2]] ([HN(C2H4P i Pr2)2] = MACHO- i Pr) revealed the best performance, reaching up to turnover number = 4023 and turnover frequency 857 h-1 in EtOH/toluene as solvent under optimized conditions (T = 150 °C, p(CO/H2) = 5/50 bar, t = 8-12 h). Control experiments affirmed that the reaction proceeds via formate ester as the intermediate, whereby a catalytic amount of base was found to be sufficient to mediate its formation from CO and the alcohol in situ. Selectivity for methanol formation reached >99% with no accumulation of the formate ester. The reaction was demonstrated to work with methanol as the alcohol component, resulting in a reactive system that allows catalytic "breeding" of methanol without any coreagents.

Metal-Ligand Cooperation Facilitates Bond Activation and Catalytic Hydrogenation with Zinc Pincer Complexes.

Project description:A series of PNP zinc pincer complexes capable of bond activation via aromatization/dearomatization metal-ligand cooperation (MLC) were prepared and characterized. Reversible heterolytic N-H and H-H bond activation by MLC is shown, in which hemilability of the phosphorus linkers plays a key role. Utilizing this zinc pincer system, base-free catalytic hydrogenation of imines and ketones is demonstrated. A detailed mechanistic study supported by computation implicates the key role of MLC in facilitating effective catalysis. This approach offers a new strategy for (de)hydrogenation and other catalytic transformations mediated by zinc and other main group metals.

Carbon dioxide hydrogenation catalysed by well-defined Mn(i) PNP pincer hydride complexes.

Project description:The catalytic reduction of carbon dioxide is of great interest for its potential as a hydrogen storage method and to use carbon dioxide as C-1 feedstock. In an effort to replace expensive noble metal-based catalysts with efficient and cheap earth-abundant counterparts, we report the first example of Mn(i)-catalysed hydrogenation of CO2 to HCOOH. The hydride Mn(i) catalyst [Mn(PNPNH-iPr)(H)(CO)2] showed higher stability and activity than its Fe(ii) analogue. TONs up to 10 000 and quantitative yields were obtained after 24 h using DBU as the base at 80 °C and 80 bar total pressure. At catalyst loadings as low as 0.002 mol%, TONs greater than 30 000 could be achieved in the presence of LiOTf as the co-catalyst, which are among the highest activities reported for base-metal catalysed CO2 hydrogenations to date.
