Hydrogenation catalyst generates cyclic peptide stereocentres in sequence.

ABSTRACT: Molecular recognition plays a key role in enzyme-substrate specificity, the regulation of genes, and the treatment of diseases. Inspired by the power of molecular recognition in enzymatic processes, we sought to exploit its use in organic synthesis. Here we demonstrate how a synthetic rhodium-based catalyst can selectively bind a dehydroamino acid residue to initiate a sequential and stereoselective synthesis of cyclic peptides. Our combined experimental and theoretical study reveals the underpinnings of a cascade reduction that occurs with high stereocontrol and in one direction around a macrocyclic ring. As the catalyst can dissociate from the peptide, the C to N directionality of the hydrogenation reactions is controlled by catalyst-substrate recognition rather than a processive mechanism in which the catalyst remains bound to the macrocycle. This mechanistic insight provides a foundation for the use of cascade hydrogenations.

Catalyst control over pentavalent stereocentres.

Project description:A monumental diversity of catalytic methods imparts the ability to select one of two configurations of tetravalent stereocentres. Conversely, catalyst control over pentavalent stereocentres, where a fifth moiety bound to the central atom encodes an expanded stereochemical space, remained a challenge to be accomplished. Herein, we report the feasibility of the catalytic tractability of pentavalent stereocentres. A bifunctional iminophosphorane thiourea catalyst enables enantio- and diastereocontrol over pentavalent phosphoranes to differentiate configurationally stable enantiomers and ensembles of diastereomers which emerge together from a single stereocentre. The desired dioxophosphorane stereoisomers are obtained with excellent yield and selectivity (up to 99% yield, 96:4 e.r. and 99:1 d.r.), while stereodivergent catalysis reroutes the reaction for selective access to each of the viable stereoisomeric states of pentavalent phosphoranes. Considering the diversity of high-valent main group species, it is expected that catalyst control over pentavalent stereocentres significantly increases the synthetically addressable stereochemical space.

Single-site catalyst promoters accelerate metal-catalyzed nitroarene hydrogenation.

Project description:Atomically dispersed supported metal catalysts are drawing wide attention because of the opportunities they offer for new catalytic properties combined with efficient use of the metals. We extend this class of materials to catalysts that incorporate atomically dispersed metal atoms as promoters. The catalysts are used for the challenging nitroarene hydrogenation and found to have both high activity and selectivity. The promoters are single-site Sn on TiO2 supports that incorporate metal nanoparticle catalysts. Represented as M/Sn-TiO2 (M?=?Au, Ru, Pt, Ni), these catalysts decidedly outperform the unpromoted supported metals, even for hydrogenation of nitroarenes substituted with various reducible groups. The high activity and selectivity of these catalysts result from the creation of oxygen vacancies on the TiO2 surface by single-site Sn, which leads to efficient, selective activation of the nitro group coupled with a reaction involving hydrogen atoms activated on metal nanoparticles.

Black indium oxide a photothermal CO2 hydrogenation catalyst.

Project description:Nanostructured forms of stoichiometric In2O3 are proving to be efficacious catalysts for the gas-phase hydrogenation of CO2. These conversions can be facilitated using either heat or light; however, until now, the limited optical absorption intensity evidenced by the pale-yellow color of In2O3 has prevented the use of both together. To take advantage of the heat and light content of solar energy, it would be advantageous to make indium oxide black. Herein, we present a synthetic route to tune the color of In2O3 to pitch black by controlling its degree of non-stoichiometry. Black indium oxide comprises amorphous non-stoichiometric domains of In2O3-x on a core of crystalline stoichiometric In2O3, and has 100% selectivity towards the hydrogenation of CO2 to CO with a turnover frequency of 2.44?s-1.

Metallic Barium: A Versatile and Efficient Hydrogenation Catalyst.

Project description:Ba metal was activated by evaporation and cocondensation with heptane. This black powder is a highly active hydrogenation catalyst for the reduction of a variety of unactivated (non-conjugated) mono-, di- and tri-substituted alkenes, tetraphenylethylene, benzene, a number of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, aldimines, ketimines and various pyridines. The performance of metallic Ba in hydrogenation catalysis tops that of the hitherto most active molecular group 2 metal catalysts. Depending on the substrate, two different catalytic cycles are proposed. A: a classical metal hydride cycle and B: the Ba metal cycle. The latter is proposed for substrates that are easily reduced by Ba0 , that is, conjugated alkenes, alkynes, annulated rings, imines and pyridines. In addition, a mechanism in which Ba0 and BaH2 are both essential is discussed. DFT calculations on benzene hydrogenation with a simple model system (Ba/BaH2 ) confirm that the presence of metallic Ba has an accelerating effect.

Be12O12 Nano-cage as a Promising Catalyst for CO2 Hydrogenation.

Project description:An efficient conversion of CO2 into valuable fuels and chemicals has been hotly pursued recently. Here, for the first time, we have explored a series of M12x12 nano-cages (M?=?B, Al, Be, Mg; X?=?N, P, O) for catalysis of CO2 to HCOOH. Two steps are identified in the hydrogenation process, namely, H2 activation to 2H*, and then 2H* transfer to CO2 forming HCOOH, where the barriers of two H* transfer are lower than that of the H2 activation reaction. Among the studied cages, Be12O12 is found to have the lowest barrier in the whole reaction process, showing two kinds of reaction mechanisms for 2H* (simultaneous transfer and a step-wise transfer with a quite low barrier). Moreover, the H2 activation energy barrier can be further reduced by introducing Al, Ga, Li, and Na to B12N12 cage. This study would provide some new ideas for the design of efficient cluster catalysts for CO2 reduction.

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.

Pd/MCM-41 catalyst for acetylene hydrogenation to ethylene.

Project description:This study aims to produce ethylene using the calcium carbide route, acetylene from calcium carbide and then selective hydrogenation of the high-concentration acetylene to ethylene. A series of catalysts with different supports, such as Al2O3, SiO2 and MCM-41, were prepared using the ethylene glycol reduction method and their catalytic properties for high-concentration acetylene hydrogenation of calcium carbide to ethylene were studied by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and thermogravimetry, among others. The results show that the small particle size and uniform dispersion of palladium (Pd) particles in the Pd/MCM-41 catalyst produced the highest ethylene yield of 62.09%. Then, the conditions for the basic reaction, such as reaction temperature and space velocity, were optimized using MCM-41 as a support. The yield of ethylene after condition optimization was as high as 82.87%, while the loading of Pd was 0.1%.

A cobalt phosphide catalyst for the hydrogenation of nitriles.

Project description:The study of metal phosphide catalysts for organic synthesis is rare. We present, for the first time, a well-defined nano-cobalt phosphide (nano-Co2P) that can serve as a new class of catalysts for the hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines. While earth-abundant metal catalysts for nitrile hydrogenation generally suffer from air-instability (pyrophoricity), low activity and the need for harsh reaction conditions, nano-Co2P shows both air-stability and remarkably high activity for the hydrogenation of valeronitrile with an excellent turnover number exceeding 58000, which is over 20- to 500-fold greater than that of those previously reported. Moreover, nano-Co2P efficiently promotes the hydrogenation of a wide range of nitriles, which include di- and tetra-nitriles, to the corresponding primary amines even under just 1 bar of H2 pressure, far milder than the conventional reaction conditions. Detailed spectroscopic studies reveal that the high performance of nano-Co2P is attributed to its air-stable metallic nature and the increase of the d-electron density of Co near the Fermi level by the phosphidation of Co, which thus leads to the accelerated activation of both nitrile and H2. Such a phosphidation provides a promising method for the design of an advanced catalyst with high activity and stability in highly efficient and environmentally benign hydrogenations.

Nickel-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of Cyclic Sulfamidate Imines: Efficient Synthesis of Chiral Cyclic Sulfamidates.

Project description:Chiral cyclic sulfamidates are useful building blocks to construct compounds, such as chiral amines, with important applications. Often these compounds can only be generated through expensive precious metal catalysts. Here, Ni(OAc)2/(S, S)-Ph-BPE-catalyzed highly efficient asymmetric hydrogenation of cyclic sulfamidate imines was successfully developed, affording various chiral cyclic sulfamidates with high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% yield, >99% enantiomeric excess [ee]). This Ni-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation on a gram scale has been achieved with only 0.1 mol% catalyst loading in 99% yield with 93% ee. Other types of N-sulfonyl ketimines were also hydrogenated well to obtain the corresponding products with >99% conversion, 96%-97% yields, and 97%->99% ee. In addition, this asymmetric methodology could produce other enantioenriched organic molecules, such as chiral ?-fluoroamine, amino ether, and phenylglycinol. Moreover, a reasonable catalytic cycle was provided according to the deuterium-labeling studies, which could reveal a possible mechanism for this Ni-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation.

Intermetallic nickel silicide nanocatalyst-A non-noble metal-based general hydrogenation catalyst.

Project description:Hydrogenation reactions are essential processes in the chemical industry, giving access to a variety of valuable compounds including fine chemicals, agrochemicals, and pharmachemicals. On an industrial scale, hydrogenations are typically performed with precious metal catalysts or with base metal catalysts, such as Raney nickel, which requires special handling due to its pyrophoric nature. We report a stable and highly active intermetallic nickel silicide catalyst that can be used for hydrogenations of a wide range of unsaturated compounds. The catalyst is prepared via a straightforward procedure using SiO2 as the silicon atom source. The process involves thermal reduction of Si-O bonds in the presence of Ni nanoparticles at temperatures below 1000°C. The presence of silicon as a secondary component in the nickel metal lattice plays the key role in its properties and is of crucial importance for improved catalytic activity. This novel catalyst allows for efficient reduction of nitroarenes, carbonyls, nitriles, N-containing heterocycles, and unsaturated carbon-carbon bonds. Moreover, the reported catalyst can be used for oxidation reactions in the presence of molecular oxygen and is capable of promoting acceptorless dehydrogenation of unsaturated N-containing heterocycles, opening avenues for H2 storage in organic compounds. The generality of the nickel silicide catalyst is demonstrated in the hydrogenation of over a hundred of structurally diverse unsaturated compounds. The wide application scope and high catalytic activity of this novel catalyst make it a nice alternative to known general hydrogenation catalysts, such as Raney nickel and noble metal-based catalysts.
